Can I sync iPhone 4 with iOS 4.2.1 to iTunes?

I haven't updated my iOS at all, and I'm changing my iPhone 4 to iPhone 5s. Can anyone tell me how I sync my iPhone that has iOS 4.2.1 to iTunes so that I can backup my data and not lose it all when I change to my new iPhone?

  • How can I sync iPhone 3GS with my Windows 7 PC, when iTunes does not appear on monitor screen when I plug the iPhone into the computer?

    How can I ync iPhone 3Gs with my Windows 7 PC, when iTunes does not launch when I connect the iPhone to my computer? Note: My computer crashed and I am reinstalling everything.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    You can also back up iTunes and restore it on your new computer How to back up your media in iTunes , but the iPhone will be erased anyway during the first sync.

  • Can you Sync iPhone 5 with Outlook 2013

    Can you sync iPhone 5 with Outlook 2013? Everything mail, contacts and calender.

    Hey Mark
    I'm Michael and I work for connex.io.
    We were also constantly having problems with our address books, so we decided to build our own solution. connex.io is a service that syncs two-ways between all of your devices and services. It also de-duplicates, cleans completes and automatically updates your address books on all of those devices. So whenever you make a change on any of them, it automatically gets changed everywhere. So you only have to connect your address books once, and you will have your contacts always with you. No need to connect your device to your computer or sync manually.
    If you want to check it out: www.connex.io or you can send me an e-mail if you would like some more info: [email protected]
    I hope this helps you out.

  • After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

    After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • Sync problem iphone 4 with ios 4.3.4 and itunes 10.4 on snow leopard

    After updating my iphone 4 to ios 4.3.4 and itunes to 10.4 syncing doesn't work any longer.
    While syncing pictures I get a unknown error (-50) message and syncing stops.

    Okay, I have a Mac Mini running Snow Leopard in which I just updated iTunes. My iTunes library is on an external hard drive. I updated my iPhone to 4.3.4 and the syncing is not working. I get an error that it cannot write to the iPhone then get an error regarding some of the photos. Here is what I have done -
    I restored my iPhone
    I removed all photos from the iPhone and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes
    I unplugged the external from my mini and then it did a sync just find - course I wasn't syncing anything to it!
    I plugged back in the external via Firewire which is what it was before and I get the errors.
    Prior to the latest iTunes update everything was fine but of course I hadn't updated the iPhone yet - so I don't know which update is now causing the problem although I'm thinking it's the iTunes update..
    Any thoughts? Beyond frustrated at this point.

  • Can't Sync iPhone 4 with iTunes 11

    Hi Everybody.
    I recently bought a macbook pro 15" (OS Mountain Lion) ad i tried to sync my iPhone 4.
    However, iTunes (latest version) can't sync because it reports that my MAC isn't authorized (but I have authorized it wit my id apple without error messages).
    Every time I try to sync, iTunes stops synchronizing when importing the apps and if I try to transfer purchases, itunes tells me that some of them do not have the required permissions (and it is right because these apps are downloaded with another idapple).
    What Could I do?
    Thank you for your help

    First thing to do is close all programs and reboot - open iTunes and see if you can sync.

  • How can I sync iPhone calendar with my wife's iPhone?

    How can I sync my iPhone calendar with my wife's iPhone calendar and vice versa?  Along with my iPad and iMac?

    One option is to share your iCloud calendars if all your devices are connected to iCloud and you are syncing your calendars with iCloud (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690).  (You would need to be running OS X Lion on your iMac to sync with iCloud.)

  • Can't sync iPhone contact with iMac address book since Lion upgrade

    iCal sync is fine.  All the proper boxes in iTunes are checked.  The iPhone is reconized in iTunes.  Any suggestions?

    Sorry I don't have an answer for you.  I kind of doubt Apple has added a solution for that yet, since your Facebook account is not yet synced through iCloud; it is set up independantly on each device.
    However I hope you can help me, I cannot figure out how to manually link contacts on my Mac; there is no Add Link button like there is on the phone...

  • Can I sync iPhone email with my Hotmail?

    I currently have my Hotmail email account set up with my iPhone. I am able to send/receive messages just fine. I was wondering if there is a way to make it so that whenever I view/read a message on my iPhone, that it automatically marks it as "read" when I check my email from a computer, and vice versa? Currently, the mail that is marked as "read" on my iPhone, will still be "unread" or "new" if I check it from the computer, and vice versa on the phone. Not sure what to do to make this work...it used to do it automatically on my BlackBerry. Thanks!

    One option is to share your iCloud calendars if all your devices are connected to iCloud and you are syncing your calendars with iCloud (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690).  (You would need to be running OS X Lion on your iMac to sync with iCloud.)

  • Can't restore iphone 3gs with IOS 4.3.5

    I have a 3gs and ever time i try resotre the iphone using the newest version of itunes with the newest version of ios firmware i get the 1013 error.  i have not edited the host file or anything.  The error always comes at the very end of the restore.  i need help!!!

    Are you upgrading the firmware from iTunes?  From Apple's web site:
    Error 9006: Following Troubleshooting security software frequently resolves this error. There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your Registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance.

  • Can you sync iphone contacts with outlook two ways?

    When I sync my iphone with outlook using itunes, one contact is not syncing.  The initial sync went fine but subsequent syncs deleted one contact from the desk but left it on the phone.  Is there a two-way sync setting I am missing?
