How can I restore my latest iCloud backup from my iPhone 4 to my new iPhone 5?
How can I use the my latest iCloud backup from my iPhone 4 to update all my apps on my new iPhone 5? I just registered it and it is a later version of the backup. Can I reboot it now that I have a more current backup from my iPhone 4?
Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process. If you have already set up your iPhone 5 you will have to erase it and go back through the setup again. If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you are restoring to you'll need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

How to update phone to the latest iCloud backup??
Just got a new iPhone 5 to replace my old one. The new phone's software wasn't up to date so it couldn't process the latest iCloud backup. I'm now stuck with the iCloud backup from last year. I've updated the software now how do I update the iCloud backup?
Hey Lucy_love!
In order to get back to the screen where you will be able to choose the backup to apply to your phone, you will have to restore your phone according to the instructions in the following article:

TS4425 How can i do when the latest iCloud Terms & Condition does not pop up?
When I go to photo stream on my appletv, it says "unable to sign in The icloud terms of service have changed. For more info, go to http://www.apple.com/support/icloud".
I have tried this resolution on my iphone and ipad already:
On your iOS device, tap Settings > iCloud.
Note: Verify that this is the same Apple ID you are using on the Apple TV.
After a moment, the latest iCloud Terms & Conditions will load.
Unfortunately, it does not pop up the icloud terms and condition for me to accept.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks all~Caused by the Ask Toolbar extension in Firefox 3.6.13, disable that extension or un-install it.

Last night I took the plunge into iOS7-and all **** broke loose. Something definitely went wrong with the upload because all my photos didn't appear on my iphone once it had completed the update, although I was able to get that back through my iCloud photostream; my text messages where also eraced all the way back til june. This morning, however, upon clicking the notes app on my iphone, I was shocked to see it empty as well. And the version of my Notes on icloud.com is also empty.
When I plug in my phone and try to restore it from the latest iphone backup, which apparently was sept.20th (thus before i had installed iOS7), it doesn't give me the data that was actually on my phone on sept. 20th (because my photos and notes dissapear all over again). I have spent hours trying to figure this out and am so extremely frustrated with iOS7..I did that - turning off iCloud and then turning on again, and when I turned it off the two middle buttons reappeared, those for printing or emailing, and also for "trashing". They stayed even when I turned iCloud back on. But I still can only see today's notes, the forward and back buttons are still greyed out.
I had tried rebooting before asking the question, and it didn't help.
Going into iTunes, I don't see the app. for notes, nor is it in my iCloud account, which is odd as in my iPad settings I have set notes no sync. as well as bookmarks and reminders, neither of which appear in my iCloud site.
So I still can't find my old note. -

I had to reformat my OSX 10.5.8 and I can't restore my emails from my time machine backup from an external hard drive - only the latest (post backup) time machine back ups are available to restore. Please can any help? I can find the mail folder in my libraries, but the Restore Button is grayed out
OSX treats the reformatted drive as a different one; it's the same as replacing it, and the old one is no longer connected.
See #E3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting to see and restore from the "old" drive.
And, you may not want to restore via the Finder; see the blue box in #15 of Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. -

Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

My daughter accidentally reset her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. All her photos were on camera roll so I believe they should have automatically been backed up, but none have been restored. Why?
When she plugged in the ipod last night it backed up again so that now shows as the latest backup. No previous backups are listed so I do not seem to have the option to rerun the old one. She had many pictures on the camera roll taken from well before July. I can only presume that the backup in July must have been incomplete - but then I didn't think it was supposed to list as an option to restore from. Luckily many of the photos had been backed up on the pc but I am very frustrated as to why the icloud backup didn't protect them. Thank you for your advice though, I appreciate it.

How to pick up the latest report instance of a schedueld report
Hi,
I am supporting a custom application (.NET), which has to pick up the latest report instance by accepting the Report ID.
At times, the application does seems to be pick up the wrong (older) instance. This is not happening all the times but certain reports behaves this way once a while.
This is how the application seems to be determining the latest instance.
SELECT * FROM CI_INFOOBJECTS
WHERE SI_PROGID = 'CrystalEnterprise.Report'
AND SI_INSTANCE_OBJECT = 1
AND SI_SCHEDULE_STATUS = 1
AND SI_PARENTID= '" + id + "'
ORDER BY SI_ID DESC
Once the above statement returns all the available instances it just pick up the very first instance and returns it back to the application and it gets displayed through the Report Viewer.
My question here is that, does this order (ORDER BY SI_ID DESC) will always return me the latest instance first? When I manually verify the instance ID, it seems to be getting incremented eventhough it is a random number.
When I review the InfoView code, which also seems to be doing the same thing I have found that it is using SI_UPDATE_TS instead of SI_ID.
Could someone please tell me which is the correct one to use? I tried by could not able to find references anywhere.
Environment: BO XI R2 - SP2Jason,
Thanks for the info. The query builder o/p and the application o/p are the same. When this situation happened last time I just simply deleted those older instances from the history and left only the current one.
This has forced the query to return the only available instance, which is the current one.
My suspect here is that, the SI_ID of a new instance is smaller than the older instance...
for example,
Instance 1 - 10023
Instance 2 - 12344
Instance 3 - 9892
Is this possible?? Since I have deleted the older instances I have no way to confirm this case unless it happens again.
The BO documentation about SI_ID reads like this...
"This property is used to uniquely identify an object. The number is assigned at creation time, and is never changed until the object is destroyed. You should never hard-code this number, however, since if the object is destroyed the number may be assigned to another object. No two objects have the same ID, even if they are different types of objects; that is, you will never find a report that has the same ID as a folder."
As it claims that an ID can be re-used if the object is destoryed I assume that though the new ID will be unique there is no guarantee that it will be bigger than the previous instance of the same object.
But the problem is that I dont have a documentation proof to claim this hence asking help from the guru's here...

Hi. I brought a new iphone 5 and I wanted to restore it to one of my previous iclouds but it's not letting me - the icloud backup is a iphone 5 6.1 ios and my current is iphone 6.0.1 ios - please advise what i should do...
Hi ldyazch,
You will need to set it up as a new phone, not from a backup, first. Then, after setup is complete, go to Settings > General > Software Update. Make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi and have at least 50% battery power. After then update downloads and installs, you can go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
This will let you go through the setup again, and this time you can choose your backup. -
I can't select icloud backup on my iphone 5, i've got 4.5 gig of available storage and this just started 2 weeks ago, I've tried deleting a couple of apps, signing out, rebooting, all to no avail. The button stays grayed out and will not let me select. Any ideas on how to solve this?

Why can't I install the latest version of Flash Player? I have all plug-ins allowed.
Why can't I install the latest version of Flash Player? I have all plug-ins allowed.
If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
When visiting other websites
From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them. -
I inadvertently deleted Firefox and emptied the trash bin. I believe it was version 3.5. I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11. After several futile attemps how can I re-install the latest version of Firefox compatible to my MAC system? Thanks!
As of Firefox 4.0 and newer the Firefox builds from Mozilla requires both Mac OSX 10.'''5'''+ and a Intel.
Either you can use 3.6.19 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Though for you 3.6.18 will be safe also as 3.6.19 was to workaround a font crashing issue on 10.7 Lion that was not fixed in time on Lion before release. http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.18/mac/ and pick your language and download the Firefox 3.6.18.dmg -
Why can't I remove iMessage from iCloud backups?
Why can't I remove iMessage from iCloud backups?
I've noticed that my iCloud backups are constantly hitting their 5GB max, even after clearing out camera rolls, etc.
After some testing, I've found that iMessages are also backed up. For someone like me, I'm constantly sending pictures / videos to friends and family, having a little guy under a year old (but that's not important).
In any case, it seems you can set iCloud backup for just about every app EXCEPT iMessages. The only way I've found to solve this is to constantly delete message threads from my iPhone, so that they aren't taking up iCloud space. But this honestly is a bit of a pain (okay, only a little bit)... why can't I keep my messages around for as long as I want, without backing them up?Make sure you have their icloud email they use for imessage in their contact information before sending them an imessage.
