Why I'm lost my Bookmarks Bar when I upgrade my mobile me to icloud? How can I get it back to my iMac, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad, iPad2?
last thing you can try would be go to settings, general, settings, reset all settings
if that does not work, a factory restore will be needed... -
Hi, I have recently upgraded from and Iphone 4 to 5. I completed a back up on my iphone 4 via icloud which went ok. When setting up my new phone I selected to set up as a new phone and not via icloud back up. Is there anyway I can restore my details to my new phone? Thanks Hayley
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates available.
Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from. -

I have just bought a new computer and downloaded itunes. I plugged in my iphone and upgraded to the newest itunes/ synched etc. Now have no music or apps on the phone. Contacts, texts, photos all fine. Just all itunes content that is missiing. It isn't showing in my itunes account on my computer or on my phone. Any idea how to get it back? (No point synching with itunes on my computer as it isn't there either!)
I suggest copying your entire iTunes library to your new computer, also you might want to copy the photos you want to save. Then sync your device to the new iTunes and copy over your music, documents and photos that you want.
If you are no longer going to use the old computer you should open up iTunes on the old computer and use the menu to deauthorize it. Be sure to use the same iTunes menu on your new computer to Authorize the new one. -
HT4623 how do I get my apps back on my phone desktop after upgrade to IOS6
How do I get my apps back on my phone desktop after upgrade to IOS6
Sync them back to the iPhone via iTunes or redownload them directly to the iPhone.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If you also what your app date, you need to restore from backup. See:

My Iphone 4s automatically synced when I started ITunes. When it did this it saved all of my pictures on my computer to my phone. How do I reverse this and take the pictures back off of my iPhone?
Yeah, my iPhone 4S sometimes manages to connect to wifi for about 10 minutes now. I think there is a problem related with the antenna because when the phone heats up, the WIFI stops working. I had a similar experience with my older iPhone 4S which I bought from the U.S.A. (unlocked version) but after a couple of days, WIFI icon grayed out and I wasn't able to switch it on and off. Now the phone I'm using was bought in Turkey from a local carrier, (it's not locked I suppose) I'm planning on upgrading to an iPhone 6 and I will try to get my 4S repaired. I hope it is something related with software rather than hardware. Because a friend of mine sent his phone to the local Apple store to be fixed, they sent the phone back claiming that they had repaired it. But in about 2 days, the phone shut itself down and never turned off back again lol. I don't want to experience the same thing. But anyway, thanks for your answer. At least now I know that I'm not the only one that has this problem .

I believe that iPhone 4 upgrades from O2 or other carriers are simlocked. Unless you purchased your iPhone 4 from Apple Store Online you can't use your orange(contract)microsim(if you happen to swap your sim) to your O2 iPhone 4 upgrade. Even if you ask O2 to unlock your phone, they wouldn't do it.

Unlocking iPhone 4
To make sure our iPhone 4 stock is reserved exclusively for genuine O2 customers during launch, we won't unlock iPhone 4 until after the launch period. Please check back here for the latest information on unlocking iPhone 4.
Hopefully O2 will unlock the iPhone 4 soon! -
Can my backup of my IPHONE 4 ver 7.1.2 be used to restore back to my new IPHONE 6 plus IOS 8?
I will be purchasing the new IPHONE 6 plus tomorrow.
Can my Iphone 4 (not s) be backed up under IOS 7.1.2 and be restored to my new IPHONE 6 plus?
Or do I need to backup IPHONE 4
Upgrade to IOS 8
Backup IPHONE 4 with IOS 8
then restore IPHONE 6+ from the last backup of the IPHONE 4 IOS backup?
thanks Loubut the opposite isnt possible sady!
I just sold my iPhone 5s and waiting 4 weeks now for my iPhone 6+
I took out my old iPhone 4 and tried to restore it from a backup i had just created a few hours ago on my 5s (iOS8) and the option was greyed out.
I could only see backups from a year back !
You cant restore an iPhone 4 with iOS 7.1.2 from a backup created on iOS 8 !!!!
That's so STUPID!
iCloud syncs my contacts, calendars and reminders, but i have to setup all the rest of the settings manually! I have 7 email accounts, mix of gmail, hotrmail, yahoo, 2 exchange, others, etc. lots of personalized settings, Apps that i need to download again and arrange in folders like before, ......big hassle!!!
It shouldn't be that tough Apple! -
iPhone 4 upgrade to 7.2 has locked phone . can't open can't unlock and stalled in the middle of the upgrade.help
Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
If this does not work, try to connect in recovery mode, shown here:

How come calendars and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?
How come calandras and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?
Hi, Did you work out a fix for this? All my calender dates (past & future) and the last 12 months of new contacts gone!!!! And yes i too back up regularly.
Previously when the great 5 upgrade happened, i did loss everything, and although I was doing backups none of that info was relative in an English way. A whole life of important, unreplaceable information gone! Never to be found.
All of my products are apple, but it seems that little people dont matter to them, with no recourse for the damage to my personal or professional life.
Extremly disappointed again! -
Hi! My friend offer me a iphone 4s upgraded to ios7. The phone need and icloud account. and my friend didn't remember his email address and password. How can i bypass this. Please help.
Sorry, there's no way around Activation Lock. So, give the phone back to your "friend", as you will never be able to use it.
Apple can't/won't help you. -
I accidentally clicked "restore" when I meant to "back up" on my iphone 5, is there anyway I can undo that and get back to what I had?
Once the Device is being Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Restore from the most recent Backup...

I have just updated to iOS7, no icon for browser, was using Safari, how do I get it back and can I reverse the upgrade and go back to iOS6? Thanks to you from the UnTechie
The icon for Safari has probably moved to make room for new apps. Scroll the Home screen to look for it.
You cannot reverse the upgrade. -
I just backed up my 3gs iphone using itunes. All my photos and contacts have disappeared from my phone. I am unable to locate them on my computer. HELP!!!
OK, I understand. Try this ... it's much safer. It will simply restore your backup, but not do anything to your iOS:
While your iPhone is plugged in to iTunes, right click on the iPhone icon on the left side of the iTunes display.
Choose "Restore from backup ..." from the pop-up menu that appears.
Again, what this will do is place that backup back on your iPhone without changing iOS. So you should be very confident in the backup contents before doing this.
