Can't set up iphone 4s using icloud

Hello
I have the iphone 3GS and have turned on iCloud & I can see on the screen it's presented me with the time last back up was completed.
I have today upgraded and have iPhone 4S to set up, in the set up process it allows me to select set up from iCloud, I then enter my ID and password (as per the one shown in my 3GS) but then it says ‘no backups available’
Not really sure what else to do to get this to work?
Thanks J
Susan

Try updating the firmware for the router.

  • HT201441 Can't set up iPhone as old iCloud account is locked out even though device removed!!!

    My Mums iphone has been removed from its original iCloud account and a factory reset performed.
    I want to connect it to a new iCloud account (for my Dad), but when setting it up, it asks for the original iCloud account.
    When I enter the original account details in correctly, it says "Incorrect Apple ID, [email protected] cannot be used to unlock this iPhone."
    I can still log into iCloud with the original account on my PC and under "find my phone" is says no devices are connected.
    "Set up your iCloud account on an iPhone, .... to use Find My iPhone"
    Of course, I can't do that as I'm in an endless loop of going nowhere, locked out of my own device.
    I've tried using my wireless network and itunes with the same result.
    HOW CAN I CONTINUE TO SET UP AND ACCESS MY PHONE???
    I expect I'll have to make a special inconvenient trip into town to the Apple store. So much for user friendly!

    from Apple's web site - I tried these first and then other combinations:
      • Server name: imap.mail.me.com      - also tried using the p03-   before that which was in my Mac's settings for this account, also tried using the p03- in the IMAP prefix field
      • SSL Required: Yes   - I also tried the 3 other available settings, including TLS and accept all for both SSL and TLS
      • Port: 993  (also tried TLS / 143)
      • Username: The name part of your iCloud email address (for example, emilyparker, not [email protected])  - I also tried using that with both @mac.com and @me.com as part of user name
      • Password: Your iCloud password
    I could not get past this stage with the stock / default Android mail app.  However, Aqua Mail allows me to enter both incoming and outgoing server settings before connecting (which both fail).
    SMTP information for the outgoing mail server
      • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
      • SSL Required: Yes - I also tried the 3 other available settings, including TLS and accept all for both SSL and TLS
      • Port: 587 (also tried SSL / 465)
      • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
      • Username: Your full iCloud email address (for example, [email protected], not emilyparker) -  I also tried using that with both @mac.com and @me.com as part of user name
      • Password: Your iCloud password

  • Can I set my iPhone to use Secure IMAP

    Hi,
    I just got my iPhone activated today and am trying to connect to my office mail server but we use a secure IMAP connection and I can't figure out how to configure this on the iPhone. Does anyone know of a way or can someone confirm that it is possible with the iPhone?
    Thanks

    Ryan,
    I can tell you that mine is connecting over secure IMAP to our mail server at the office. (Which I manage.)
    Now, I don't know exactly how to configure it from scratch, during activation the iPhone copied over my settings from Mail.app, and got it right.
    In Settings>Mail>[Account Name]>Advanced there are switches for "incoming" and "outgoing" SSL. In my case, both of those are on.

  • Can i set my iPhone 4 as a new phone then use iCloud to get information from before restoring the phone?

    Can i set my iPhone 4 as a new phone then use iCloud to get information from before restoring the phone? I've restored my iPhone 4 thru iTunes and now trying to set it up using iCloud but it says 'no back ups available'.
    I was upgrading my OS system thru iTunes but the plug on my macbook came out and battery ran flat half way thru. This jammed my iPhone 4.
    I think it's to do with the OS system. That if i take it to the previous OS system it might work. But since i'm in phone set up mode i can't get into general setting to change it back.
    So can i set it up as a new phone and then use icloud to restore info? Or shld i set it up thru iTunes and then iCloud (but since it jammed half way thru upgrading and i've restored i don't think iTunes has any of my previous info)? Or is there something else i can do?

    No. You can set up as a new device or restore from iCloud or iTunes. It looks like you backed up with iTunes, so you can't restore with iCloud. To backup your device in iCloud, go to Settings > iCloud and activate it

  • How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • Can I set my iphone 6 up so that when I delete an email from my computer it will also delete from my phone?

    Can I set my iphone 6 up so that when I delete an email from my computer it will also delete from my phone?

    To do that you need to be using an IMAP type email account rather than a POP type. Check with your email provider to see if they provide this service and, if so, switch to it on all your devices.

    can you set up 2 accounts (of icloud) on 1 computer

    I had two accounts on one computer until recently. You need to use two user accounts on the computer. Note, I say I did it until recently, therefore I'm not able to confirm this still works, but assume it does.

    can you set up apple tv using 2 different itunes accounts from 2 different macs in same household?

    No, you can only connect to one Home Sharing account at a time. If you want to see the content of the other Mac's library you will have to turn off Home Sharing on the Apple TV and log back in with the other iTunes account.
