How can I put back my iPhone as a device in View My Account iTunes in the Cloud Manage Devices?

I went into this list and noticed that I had my old iPhone 3Gs and my new iPhone 5s listed as devices. I also had 2 PC's listed.  So there were 4 devices associated wih my Apple ID.  Here is a little background.  When setting up my new phone, I had mistakenly given the new phone the identical name as my old iPhone 3GS, then realized that was a mistake because it would be hard to differentiate between the 2 phones in lists (for example: Restore backup lists is a very good example).  So I changed the name of my new phone so it would be different.
My old phone was called Bruce's iPhone and my new iPhone was called Bruce's 5s.  Even though I had changed the name of my new phone, the list of devices under View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Manage Devices had the 2 phones still listed with the same name, Bruce's iPhone.  I was able to tell the difference by the date the devices were established, but I did not like that.
So I used the 'Remove' button and deleted the listing for the newer listing of Bruce's iPhone.   Now, no matter what I try I can not get that new name and that device to get back on the list.  There are now 3 devices only.
Since I did this, I have developed the issue where when I sync, the system hangs on Step 7 of the Sync, "Waiting for changes to be applied". I stopped it after 3+ hours.  Then I restored my most recent backup (to the Cloud) and the next Sync worked.  I have no idea if the above action on my part is in any way connected to my developing the syncing issue.
Does anyone know how I can get that device, my new iPhone 5s, called Bruce's 5s back on this list of devices?  I seem to be able to do all the actions I want to with the devicer and my Apple ID.  But the coincidence of the above change that I ran into didn't make me smile either.
Thanks in advance for any input/help?
Bruce - obviously

Is this your issue >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
If so...
The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

    I accidentally removed my iPad from iTunes in the cloud manage devices is there anyway I can restore this?

    Hi Eric Ferguson,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    They would have to do more than that to remove or alter the IMEI, or, as brad805 already said, the logic board has been damaged. The person they got if from was probably trying to dump it.

    Here are a bunch of scripts to get folder size under all circumstances.  Take your pick.

  • I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

    I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

    No... do not move programs.
    About the iTunes library files
    Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
    Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

    Into one of the domain accounts, or a specific mailbox in a domain account, that's your choice but:
    Remember that you are moving mail over the internet, and you are uploading (slower). If the quantities are large you must use caution.
    1. Copy, don't move, in the event of a failure the original will still exist, delete it later.
    2. Limit copies to <500 emails
    3. Single copy operations are more reliable than multiple.
    Take your time.
    Thanks, but impractical. Many of the folders have more than 500 emails. Total is about 2 GB (which I have free on iCloud btw)

  • How can I "Put Back" a time machine backup from the trash to my external hard drive?

    Basically what happened was I accidentally put an older time machine backup from my external hard drive into the trash on my macbook. Since then, time machine has made new backups onto my external hard drive. How can I either "Put Back" or replace the deleted backup back into my hard drive?
    Whenever I try to move it it says "A newer item named “Backups.backupdb” already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the older one you’re moving?" I click replace and after a few minutes of loading, it says "Cannot replace. An item named "" already exists."

    As long as you don't delete the trash, the files should be recoverable.
    I suspect using the Put Back command could take a long time, so be patient.
    If your Time Machine backups are mixed with your daughter's backups you might want to buy a larger drive and move the Time Machine files to the new drive.
    Regarding missing photos in iPhoto...There might be options to rebuild/recover that data from iPhoto rather than trying to revert to a Time Machine backup.
    Check out this third party app, iPhoto Library Manager. It has a demo.
    http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/
    Options for a larger drive.
    I like the Seagate USB 3.0 Backup plus drives. Works on USB 2.0 ports. They come formatted for PC but easy to format in Disk Utility.
    I don't recommend Western Digital because of the boot problem with some of their drives.
    LaCie makes good drives.
    All Mac formatted drives will cost more and it’s easy to reformat with Disk Utility. Do not use the software that comes with the drives. It’s recommended that you use Apple’s Disk Utility.
    Prices vary but this gives you an idea of what you’ll find. As you notice the second and third TB is usually only $15 more per TB. Normally, you’ll find these prices but right now the 1T is more than the 2T
    Seagate Backup Plus 1 TB USB 3.0 $85
    Seagate Backup Plus 2 TB USB 3.0 $99
    Seagate Backup Plus 3 TB USB 3.0 $115
    I have seen the 3T on sale for $99.
    Locally, Best Buy seems to have the best prices.

  • My husband and I share his apple ID on our iphone5s.  I created own Apple ID.  How can I put it on my phone for own iCloud and keep joint itunes?

    My husband and I presently share his Apple ID on our respective 5c iPhones.  I want my own iCloud account.  I created an Apple ID for myself. 
    1} how do I change from his apple ID in my phone
    2) how do I continue to use the joint iTunes account under his name
    3) see below -  how do I switch the iTunes account to my apple ID
    Also, under a totally different subject.  My husbands iPhone was just stolen while he was doing volunteer disaster work in the Philippines.  Since he did not have internet access I was not able to wipe out his phone on Find My iPhone until about 8 hours after it was stolen.  After he found a way to call me back in the states,  I wiped out all his data using FInd My iphone, notified Verizon and they suspended service. 
    Because the nonplan iPhones are so expensive ($600 +) I think he will buy an Android when he returns.  Is there any way to transfer what is on our iTunes account to his Android? 
    The Verizon service person told me that whoever stole it will not be able to use the phone as it has been reported stolen.  I can not imagine that is correct as there seems to be a thriving secondary market online. Is that correct?  I am concerned that some super technical person will be able to retrieve data that was purged via Find My iPhone....   Is there anything else I should do? 

    Did you take a look at the new feature Apple - iOS 8 - Family Sharing ?
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    Up to now, songs bought from iTunes could only be played by the Apple ID that has been used to buy them.
    If you set up Family Sharing, your daughter can also play your songs and use the same contact info as before.
    If you don't want to do that, sync the contact info to the address book on your computer, and sync the info back, using iTunes:
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If the iPad already has her Apple ID and contact info on it, restore the phone from the latest iPad backup.

  • HT201365 How can I track my daughters iPhone 5 from my phone with different accounts

    How to track my daughters phone and to block Facebook and if I can have incoming and outgoing calls shut off at 9:00pm on weekdays

    Tracking the device would only work if you have the iCloud account and password for using Find My iPhone. There is no way to restrict Facebook, as it is a 3rd party app. Shutting off calls would be something you need to contact your carrier about.

  • How can I put Lightroom 4 video into a format for viewing on DVDs?

    I have made as slideshow in Lightroom 4. It translates well into MP4. This MP4 file runs on some computers and all BluRay players I've tested.
    I want this slideshow to play on all DVD playeres. How can I take the MP4 file... and make it into an AVI or other file format? Is there a better file format than AVI?
    How should I proceed? Thanks.

    I don't do a lot of video. But when I do I use Adobe Premiere Elements. Since I don't do a lot of video, I don't have the most current version. But it is a pretty good program. You can use AVI or mp4 and I think some other file formats. You can trim your video and add special effects and transitions as needed. There are other video editing programs as well. I started with a program called Pinnacle Studio. I prefer PE, however. I'm sure there are numerous other video editing software programs available. Just do a Google search.
