Cant install backup in different iphone

i bought a iphone 4s and tried to use my backup in a iphone 4 to the new 4s but it says that the file is corrupt or that the iphone is not compatible. i think the problem is the iphone 4 has unlocker carrier and the 4s has locked carrier. what can i do to use the backup from the 4 in the 4s?

Can't install backup from old iPhone 5 to iphone 6....

Hi Sarahj84,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you can't restore from a backup in iTunes. Are you getting any errors? I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

Cant Install Apps on my iphone

Recently i just created an apple ID, and upgraded from iphone3g to Iphone 4.
Copied all my data from backup, but when i tried using my newly created apple id i got a message asking to review it once ( as it was't used for App store before) when i tried to review it from the link that appears on iphone it loaded an error message saying " i need to enable cookies". so i went to settings and Safari and enabled cookies (though it was enabled by default),after that i tried reviewing the apple ID but it kept giving me same "enable cookies" message.
After tying for about 10 times i gave up and tried on another iphone 5 that was nearby, finally i was able to do the account review on iphone 5 and my apple id was activated but when i tried to download any free application ( i haven't tried downloading a paid app yet) on my iphone 4 it shows the circle animation for few seconds and then return backs to "free" button.
When i login into my apple id from another iphone 5 its able to download apps normally, its quite irritating. can anyone recommend what to do about it.
Thanks

tried to reboot it?

Can't install on 2 different iPhones

I have followed all the steps in the portal, put 2 devices on the provisioning profile, and can successfully install my app on device 1. When I plug in device 2, it shows up correctly, it check the box to enable the profile. I clean all targets and build and I get the following error:
Your mobile device has encountered an unexpected error (0xE800003A) during the install phase: Verifying application
In the console I get the following errors:
Thu Oct 23 10:58:47 unknown mobileinstallationproxy[102] <Error>: verify_executable: Could not validate signature: e8008015
Thu Oct 23 10:58:47 unknown mobileinstallationproxy[102] <Error>: preflightapplicationinstall: Could not verify /var/tmp/install_staging.9TZE99/LocalPicks.app/LocalPicks

Thu Oct 23 10:58:47 unknown mobileinstallationproxy[102] <Error>: handle_install: Installation failed
Do I have to make a certificate that matches the name on the device as well? Why is installing development builds so difficult???

I had an issue recently where I could not run on one device, but I could on another. I restored the phone that wouldn't run and after the restore I was able to build and run fine.

Connect the phone to the computer and set it to sync only the photos you want on the phone.

i tried to do a backup from my old iphone as i have a new one that was signed into another itunes account. it said i cant do it because the iphone rejected the request. how do i get around this? i have signed out of the old acct and into mine on the phone

What is the precise wording of the error message that occurs on the old iPhone when attempting to do a backup?
Are you attempting to backup via iTunes on the computer or iCloud?

I updated to ios7 on my iphone 4 and now cant install apps and one app says waiting for 2 days now. Also it started ading apps from my wife's phone onto my phone even though we have separate apple ids.

We do not share an apple ID and her phone is now logged in with her account and I have since backed it up on itunes under her account as well. I have turned off automatic downloads on her phone but they still keep downloading. I delete one app and then another one just appears on the phone.

I did an icloud backup on my old 4S with iOS 8.3 and wanted to install on my new iPhone 6 but it only has iOS 8.1.3! Can I do/use the backup after I chose "install as new iPhone"?

I did an icloud backup on my old 4S with iOS 8.3 and wanted to install on my new iPhone 6 but it only has iOS 8.1.3! Can I do/use the backup after I chose "install as new iPhone"?
Because I cannot update the software until I chose if I want to begin with a new phone setting or download a backup.
But the backup is of course not compatible with the old iOS.
So will it be possible to get the new iPhone going, then do the software update to 8.3 and then download / use the data from
my 4S icloud backup?

1. Settings > General > Software Update > Update the to 8.3
2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
3. Reactivate phone and follow prompts to restore iCloud (or iTunes) backup.

I cant install the facebook on my iphone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i cant install the facebook on my iphone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't either, therefore there's nothing wrong with your phone. It's a server / apple issue. Nothing you can do about it right now, so move on...

You're probably running into the servers simply being swamped. Thousands of people are all going for the software update at the same time. Give it a try again and if that doesn't work, then try plugging it into your computer and trying it that way.
I didn't get a notion of the size, it doesn't seem to be as big as the 700 meg 5.0 update, but it did take me 20+ minutes to download via cable internet so it's a large file. That in and of itself takes a while.
If you're trying to download it directly to your iPhone, you'll need to be on wifi since I'm sure it's well over the 20 meg file size limit for 3G.
