How can i get my messages from my old 3g to my 4s? The iphone 4s is already in use for a half year and i didn't start it from a backup

I got a big Problem. i lost my iphone 3g a half year ago and bought myself a iphone 4s. Now my 3g found its way back to me and i need to get the messages from the 3g to my 4s.
I didnt start the 4s with the backup. i made a new iphone so i dont have the messages from the 3g.
is there a possibility to import the messages from the 3g to the 4s?
Thanks for help!

You can try this: Edit your 4S backup by adding the messages from your 3G backup. You'll need third-party software, like this:

Caution: Copy your existing backup to your desktop first. One mistake & you'll make the entire backup unusable. Obviously, this is not supported by Apple, thus if you attempt to do so, you do so at your own risk.

  • How can I get my messages from my old Iphone 4 to my new Iphone 4s?

    I just bought the new Iphone 4s, and have activated it and synced it with my computer. The messages from the old Iphone 4 have not transfered over. I had to set up many of the settings that were once configured on my previous phone such as my e-mail accounts. The messages are really important and I would like a solution to trasfer them to the new phone. So if this is a known problem or if there is a solution, it would be very helpful if someone could share.

    Thank you for your response. I was talking about text messages and not e-mail. I used the e-mail as an example of other settings I had to manually enter in again since the phone forgot them.
    As for the text messages, I got them back. Yay. The solution was to restore from a previous backup. The problem I had was that the phone registered as a new phone, instead of restoring from my backup.
    For those that may run into this problem, connect your iphone, then use the restore button under the update button. It says that it will restore the phone to factory settings. Thats fine, dont let it bother you. you will get the chance to restore from back up. Mine downloaded something then reset and gave me the option to restore. I did and I got back all of my text messages.

  • How Can I Combine SMS Messages from Previous Backups?

    I have a Blackberry 8900, and I recently switched from the Storm.  I made incremental weekly backups, however didn't notice my text messages were being deleted every 30 days and I need to restore/recreate them all on my phone for searching.  How can I do this?  I have used Dashwire in the past however it does not support Blackberry.  If I used the advanced feature in Desktop Manager, it replaces existing SMS messages.  Is it possible to "Save" messages without overwriting them, or can I use Windows to access the file like an Excel file?  Thanks in advance!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Unfortunately using the Backup and Restore feature will just overwrite the databases on the BlackBerry with the information in the backup file. It does not append to the data already on there.
    There is software called ABC Amber BlackBerry Converter that can convert them from the backup file into a format that you can manipulate on your computer

  • How can I get application data from iPad1 backup??

    Hi,
    I backuped my iPad1 with iTunes and when I restore this backup in my new iPad2, all data from my applications is missing. In iPad1 I have 36GB of application data; in iPad2, after restore the backup, I have only 1.5GB. Is there a way to get these data back?? I'm using iOS 4.3.3 on both devices.
    Thanks,
    Weverton

    If you are referring to music or apps, you need to back that "data" up before restoring as a new device.
    You can re download the apps from the same iTunes account (AppleID) but if you didn't back up your music, according to Apple...
    From the iTunes Help menu.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

  • How do I get received messages from others to show up on my different Apple devices, such as my iPhone

    How do I get received messages from others to show up on my different Apple devices, such as my iPhone or iPad or iPod Touch, etc. I can see their reply on the device I was using at that moment but not on the other devices even iMessaging is turned on. Is there a way to refresh to incoming messages when one picks up one of their other Apple devices?

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.

    Hi,
    May I ask your intention by doing this? Is the particular message harmful to your computer?
    Which type of email account are you using? If you want to prevent a particular message from being downloaded to Outlook, we can login to the web interface of your email account and then remove the particular email from your Inbox.

  • HT204053 My daughter has a phone on my account how can I get her messages to come to my iPad with a different number but all under my name.

    My daughter has a iPhone five under my account how can I get her messages to come to my iPad? Under my number?

    This can happen when you both share the same Apple ID for iMessage.  You can continue to share the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores, but you should use separate IDs for iMessage and FaceTime.
    To fix this, on one of the phones, to go Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID.  Then do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

    You could set the table's data model to be the same:

  • How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

    How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

    When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
    For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

    Hi,
    I believe the phone uses Android OS, v2.3.4 (Gingerbread) therefore you can use one of these applications:
