Yes, do a backup using iTunes and restore the new iPhone from that backup.

Also make sure that you have synced the iPhone and that all of the App Purchases have been transferred by right clicking on the iPhone and clicking "Transfer Purchases". This will make sure that your Apps will be copied and sorted properly too.

I cannot get subtitles on my new smart tv. I've read all the solutions online and none of them work. When I try to airplay the BBC i player by mirroring my iphone 4 the subtitles disappear when I change from iphone to appletv.

I cannot get subtitles on my new smart tv. I've read all the solutions online and none of them work. When I try to airplay the BBC i player by mirroring my iphone 4 the subtitles disappear when I change from iphone to apple tv.

That's because the BBC iPlayer app uses basic AirPlay to show the content, this means the original content is sent to the Apple TV for it to decode rather than mirroring the screen of the iPad where the subtitles are added.

Changed from Iphone to Xperia Z1 and cant receive texts from iphone users

i recently changed from Iphone to Z1 but can not receive text messages from a lot of iphone users ( i can from some which i strange). i have turned off the Imessage setting on the old Iphone and let it sit for 30mins for apple servers to identify this. i have also done a software repair via PC Companion but still doesnt work.
any suggestions?

The thing is that your friends still using iPhone must remove you from iMessage. Otherwise you might end up with this problem.

I am currently having the same issue. Went from iphone 4 to Galaxy s3. I changed user ID and Password online // turned off all imessages and icloud on I phone // also deregistered phone on itunes on computer // Verizon stated it would take 24 hours but nothing has yet updated // I went to the site to unregistered on apple support but the phone wasn't even listed on there. Is there anything else I should do? Should I just go back to my iphone at this point.. its been over a week. please help extremely frusterated .. thank you!
Call Apple Support. They have a procedure that can unregister your Apple ID from iMessage and the phone number, as long as you can still receive regular text messages at the phone number on a non-iPhone.

Changed from iPhone 4 to galaxy s4... So frustrating

The other day my wife upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a Galaxy S4. At first the problem was that she could not receive texts from anyone with an Apple product. I got around that by changing her Apple ID password, changing her phone number, and making sure everyone changed her contact info so that it no longer said she was an iPhone just a mobile number. This allowed her to receive SMS texts. However she still cannot receive MMS messages and it has me for a loss of what to try next. I feel like this is something that Verizon should be and make their customers aware of. I have seen many threads on here with people having similar problems going from apple to android products. If anyone has any ideas for the MMS messages please let me know. This is driving me insane.

Oops sorry, I just went back to that page and now it's not there so here's what was written.
Even easier solution...on the phone itself go to settings and simply turn off iMessages. My wife joined me on the "darkside" and that's all she did and everything worked great.

Brian is correct, the easier way (I have been doing thus switching from my iPhone 4 to sgs2) is to just turn imessage off. You MUST however turn imessage off BEFORE taking the similar out of the iPhone. Of not it will still send the messages to imessage.
Have this great phone I like, but I can't receive text messages from iphones. Tried several "fixes" including unregistering my old phone & number with apple. Verizon says I can't get a replacement, so i'm stuck with this phone that I can't receive texts from my colleagues and family. This is just crazy. Anybody found a solution?
Correct Answer:
have the iphone users also delete their text history. they shouldn't have to turn off imessage if you unregistered your apple account. However it may be stored in their phone that you have imessage. have them start from scratch also.

HT4993 changed from iphone to galaxy - cant receive messages from iphones

I recently changed from an iphone to an andrtoid
However - now i can not receive any messages from an iphone
My wife still has an iphone and she had to go to Serttings = Messages - and turn on the send as SMS button to send me a message
However i cant go out and tell all my contacts who have an iphone to do this
Is there something tghat should have been done to my iphone before i turned it in ?

The following gives information of deactivating iMessage. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5185
Since you no longer have the phone you will need to contact Apple support: https://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/

I have a contact that changed from iPhone to Android, but my iPhone cannot recognize the switch and continues sending texts as iMessage.

I have an iPhone and one of my contacts switched from iPhone to Galaxy phones. But now when I text them, my messages continue sending as iMessage, even though they do not have the iMessage feature anymore. The only way my texts are sending is when I turn the iMessage feature completely off on my phone. I tried holding the individual iMessage texts down and clicking the "send as text" option but then my messages aren't delivering, I deleted and re-added the number, and restarted my phone. How do I make my phone recognize it's not an iPhone anymore?

It's not something you need to fix. The other person needs to deregister their number from iMessage: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203042

iPhone: Transferring information from your current iPhone to a new iPhone

Unable to transfer applications and music after changing from iphone 3GS to iphone 4

I just switced from an uphone 3GS to and iphone 4. Before doing so i ran a backup on my iphone 3GS. after getting the iphone 4 i ran a restore.
Most of the settings are in tact except i no longer have any applications or music.
Please advise how i can restore these settings as well.
Thank you.

Did you use the same account settings for your new phone? Did you check if there are any restrictions set for app installation in Settings/General/Restrictions?
Restoring from a backup does not include the music files or apps. You'll have to select them again and sync. Only app data and settings are part of the backup. See what else is saved here: iPhone and iPod touch: About backups

I lost my Apple ID changing from iPhone 4 to 5S.

I uploaded from Itunes my iPhone 4 complete information to my new iPhone 5s. Results lost my Apple ID. I created a new Apple ID and want to delete the old. How do I delete an old Apple ID?
Thank you very much.

you can't, but you can simply ignore it. but if you REALLY want to delete it, call apple customer support to ask for a deletion. though, you'll need the password and security questions of the old account.
you can manage your apple ID's at: https://appleid.apple.com/

Trying to change from Iphone 4 to Iphone 5, keep getting the message that my Apple ID password is incorrect, but it is not! Help!

I am trying to follow the steps to switch from my old IPhone 4 to my new IPhone 5s. I am having several issues.
1. My Iphone 5s is telling me my Apple ID password is incorrect, it is not.
2. When I first turned on my IPhone 5s, it uploaded my IPad information. I don't want that to remain on the phone.
I am going crazy trying to get this new phone going. I cannot afford the $29.99 one time support and cannot make it to an Apple store during the work week. Is there anyone who can help?

IF you have a backup for your iPhone 4, I suggest you to go on your new 5S to Settings / General all the way down to / Reset and then click on to Erase All Content and Settings.
PLEASE keep in mind that this will erase all the content of the machine and reset it to fabric.
Then, it will prompt again all the Configuration for the new iPhone, and when suggested to backup, choose the iPhone 4 one.
additional help: if you still have the iPhone 4 with all the data you want to copy, the quickest way its actually to back up to iCloud from the iPhone 4 and then do the Configuration for the new one... and shortly after connecting to a wifi network it will prompt you with a choose option between all your iCloud backups
hope that solves it all

Disable iMessage as can't receive texts from iPhone users on new Android phone

I have done everything I can find online about this:
Deleted/unregistered the device from my profile
Changed my password
Changed the number to 000000000 on my iPhone
Switched iMessage off on my iPhone
Deleted the device from my iCloud account.... HELP.
When I call apple I can't speak to someone it says I need to pay £25 as I do not have cover. Really?! Is there another number I can call? Any help appreciated. Will it work eventually? I have waited a week and still can't receive text messages from my husband on his iPhone. It's driving me mad! I love my new Android phone (LG G2) but this is so frustrating.

Hi zara343, I had a similar problem. I have a iphone and my daughter changed from iphone to android. We couldn't receive text messages to each other, she had no other problems with her other contacts, just mine. It was driving me crazy. My phone kept recognizing her android as an iphone. Yes I turned iMessage off and yes I could receive my daughters messages, but my two other daughters and a few friends had iPhones, so I didn't get their messages. My problem is now fixed, I tried to send a message to my daughter and it came up undelivered, so I pressed the red exclamation mark to the right of the undelivered message and it gave me the option to try again, send as a text message or cancel. So I pressed send as a text message and my daughter received it, I tried again and message undelivered, so again I pressed the exclamation mark and went through the same process as before. I thought what a pain but did a third and now my iphone does not recognise her phone number as an iphone. So your husband would have to do this with his iphone and I am confident it will work, and me as an iphone user can keep iMessage switched on. Hope this helps.

ICloud wiped calendars from iPhone - also not syncing contacts

I migrated from mobileme to iCloud - all functions appeared to be ok and syncing between iMac, MacBook Pro and iCloud viewed online via browser.
Mail is syncing with my iPhone and iWork is syncing and working fine.
But it does not appear to be syncing my contacts with the iPhone - I made a couple of minor alterations to contacts as a way of checking - amendments appear on both iMac and MacBook Pro and iCloud in browser, but not on phone
But most importantly - all my calendars have been wiped from my iPhone.
Mail, contactsm calendars, reminders, bookmarks, notes and find my iPhone are all turned on on my iPhone
I have:-
1) Ensured I had a Wi-fi connection
2) turned iPhone off and on again
3) held home and power buttons to reset iPhone
4) turned calenders (and contacts) off in iCloud sync and turned back on again after a few minutes
5) gone to settings for mail,calender, contacts and changed the sync setting from events 3 months back to all events and tried refreshing calendar again.
6) I have checked the iCloud sync settings for calendar and contacts in system preferences on both my iMac and MackBook Pro
7) Have done a full restore of iPhone software
8) gone through 2 - 5 again having done the full restore
9) deleted the account on my iPhone and then re-entered account
10) gone through 2 - 5 again having re-entered account details
Cannot think of anything else I can do - visted local Applestore, but they were unable to help without a Genius Bar appointment which I have for four days time. If anyone can help more immediately than this, then I'd be grateful.
thanks

randers4-
Thank you for all of your help.
But, it's still not working for me.
Firstly I'm new to Icloud. I have a feeling that I am missing something basic between Icloud and Iphone. I am at the point were I'm not even sure what to ask. Sorry for all the "possible" over info, but I wanted to be as clear as possible.
Goal:
-Changing from Iphone 3gs to 4s
-Download all info from Icloud to the new 4s
-only 1/2 contacts from 3gs are uploaded to Icloud, hence, 4s doesn't have the contacts
-problem: my computer is so old it (itunes)will no longer sync to either Iphone.
- "Test contact" performed on Iphone 3gs and it did upload to Icloud. So it's on the Icloud website contacts page when I log in.
- I have clicked import SIM contacts and uploaded to Icould. However I'm not sure if it really did it. It did say complete, but who knows.
Iphone 3gs 6.1.2
Groups:
All Exchange √
All Icloud √
Family √
Friends√
Setting> mail contacts calendars>
mail = default Icloud
contacts = default Icloud
Setting > Icloud> = all switched to ON except Notes.
Setting > Icloud> Storage Backup>Manage Storage>Backups>Backup Options = All apps ON, Camera Roll ON---- But no Contacts is there---I find this strange.
About 1/2 of my contacts are missing.
All Exchange contacts are in Icloud
All Friends and Family contacts are in Icloud
If I click on All Icloud the Freinds and Family groups check mark automatically too. So they look to me like they are "under" Icloud All group.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Kind Regards
