How do I set up my new iphone 5 to sync with my Macbook like my old iphone did

How do I set up my new iphone5 to sync with my MacBook information; my old phone was setup to update and sync when connected

Try these steps:
- open iTunes
- top left of your mac select "view"
- select "show sidebar"
- connect your iPhone to your Mac
- select your iPhone underneath devices on the sidebar
From here you will need to choose what you would like synced to the iPhone and then from there anytime you connect the iPhone to your Mac it will sync the content you have selected.
Note: The iPhone will not automatically sync if you have prevented this in iTunes<Preferences>Devices

  • How do I set up a new iphone so that contacts, calanders, and mail do not sync to the other phones in my houshold?

    I just purchased a new iPhone 4S for my 11 year old daughter. After setting it up today, and entering in our apple ID, all of my contacts appeared in her contact list, same with emails and messages. How do I set it up so that all my garbage isn't in her phone? Thanks

    Don't let her use your iCloud account on her iPhone.
    On her iPhone, go to Settings > iCloud and select Delete Account at the bottom.
    She can create her own email account if she has one, or you can create an iCloud account for her to be used on her iPhone for email account access, syncing contacts, calendar events, and notes.
    You also need to sign out of the Apple ID for iMessage on her iPhone as well and she needs to activate iMessage on her iPhone with her own Apple ID.

  • HT1688 How can I set up my new iPhone to sync with my iPad

    I recently lost my iPhone so I went through insurance to get a new one. I know my iPhone wasn't backed up to iCloud in a while but my iPad is still up to date. How can I get my new iPhone to be the same as my iPad?

    iDevices do not sync with one another, never have.
    All content should be in iTunes on the computer, connect the new iPhone to the computer and either restore it from the most recent backup of the old iPhone or set up as new and sync the desired content to the device.

  • How do I set up my new Iphone to an existing account

    When I plugged in my phone to my itunes it asked if I wanted to set this up as a new Iphone or restore from the backup of my ipod. I dont know what those mean.

    You apparently have an iPod Touch? It is asking you if you want to setup your iPhone with the backup from that iPod which would include the notes, data, etc.

  • How can I set up a new iPhone from a backup that is too large

    I have just received an upgrade to an iPhone5. The problem is that my old 4s was a 32GB and my 5 is a 16GB. Is there a way to set up my new 16GB phone from a 32GB backup?

    The iPhone's backup is not a full mirror backup.
    The backup does not include any iTunes content - no music, tones, podcasts, movies, tv shows, audio & print books, and 3rd party apps. The backup does not include any photos that were transferred from your computer.

  • How can i set up my new iPhone again?

    i just got a new iphone 4s and i didnt click the right button to restore as backup to my previous phone, so nothing transferred.  what can i do?  i accidentally set it up like i have never had an iphone....

    Hi gys,
    jlindh123 is right. Or, if you haven't got any valuable data in your new iphone yet, you can go to Settings > General > Reset and then choose "Erase All Content and Settings". This will delete all data currently stored  in the phone, restart, and then you'll perform iPhone activation from all over again, like it's new.

  • How do I delete photos from an IPad that was synced with a Macbook?

    Hope someone on here can help!
    We own both a Macbook and an IPad.  When we linked them, the IPad brought over ALL (like, around 2000) photos from the Macbook.  I would like to delete these from the IPad, but it won't let me.
    Any suggestions on what I need to do?
    Thanks!

    As I already had Windows 7 x32  installed on my MacBook and just upgraded to Windows 8 x32 it is difficult to say whether you can directly install Windows 8 x32 or have to do the upgrade Windows 7 x32 route.
    I would read this thread that applies to the installation of Windows 8 on non supported Macs.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4897066
    This is for getting Windows 8 x64 installed but it may work for Win 8 x32 using the switching of the CD's from Windows 7 to Windows 8.
    I initially used my Windows BootCamp 3.0 drivers on the my Snow Leopard disc after using BootCamp 3.0 to install Windows 7 x32 so I would try using those 3.0 Windows drivers first and then upgrading to the Bootcamp 4.0.4033 drivers after you have booted into Windows 8.

  • I want to set up my new iPhone 4s on my mac but my iPhone 3GS is sync with my pc how do I get my stuff of 3gs

    I want to set up my new iPhone 4s on my mac but my iPhone 3GS is sync with my pc how do I get my all my stuff of the 3GS on to the iPhone 4

    You should be able to sync your 3GS to your computer and make a backup.  Then connect your iPhone 4S and restore from a backup.  This should effectively move all your data to your new device.  Report back if you have any problems.
    If you are wanting to move our data from a Windows machine to your Mac, just let us know.

  • I recently upgraded my iphone 4 to a iphone5 and everytime i take pictures etc they store on the old phone as well as the new on iloud, how can I set up a new icloud on the old phone for my mum whos now using it without losing everything that was ? thanks

    i recently bought a new iphone 5 and gave the old iphone 4 to my mum.  every time i take picstures they automatically store on the iphone 4, how can i set up a new icloud for my mum on the iphone 4 but keep everything on my iphone 5?

    Your iphone 4 must still be logged into your icloud account.  Go to settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of page and tap Delete Account.  This will remove all your data from the old device but not from icloud or your iphone 5.
    To create a new icloud account for your mum, go to

  • I recently changed my apple ID but my previous apple ID is associated with my icloud account. I'm setting up my new iphone 6 and cannot complete the set up until I can sync my icloud account. Does anyone know how to change the icloud id?

    I recently changed my apple ID but my previous apple ID is associated with my icloud account. I'm setting up my new iphone 6 and cannot complete the set up until I can sync my icloud account. Does anyone know how to change the icloud id?

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPhone and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your phone).

  • Hi, I set up my new iPhone S4 with iclouds. So the data of my old S3 should move to the S4. However, some applications could not be loaded on the S04. Now some apps are loaded and others not . How can I progress?

    Thanks. I can change the forwarding settings in Gmail to be either POP or IMAP. That is quite simple. I just looked at those settings on the Gmail server and, to my surprise, both are enabled. In order for outlook client on my computer to receive IMAP emails I have to change the email account settings in my current outlook from POP to IMAP. I don't need to be using the Exchange version of Outlook to receive IMAP. I guess I'll do a little research tomorrow on Exchange so i can figure out what, if anything, it might do for me.
    I glanced at the link you sent me and it looks like it might be very helpful - another project for tomorrow.
    BTW: I hit "This Solved my Question" by accident. I meant only to "like' your response so you would get some benefit from the help you've given me so far. I hope I haven't discouraged others from taking a shot at helping me. I suspect there is more than one way to approach this and, as you know, my problem isn't really solved until I have what I need all set up and running smoothly.

  • How to get access to my iCloud back up when setting up a new iPhone 5s which needs the newest version of iOS7 first?

    how to get access to my iCloud back up when setting up a new iPhone 5s which needs the newest version of iOS7 first?

    Set up the new phone as a new iPhone (without using your backup), then update it to the latest iOS (7.1.2).  Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts.  This process is explained in more detail here: iCloud: Restore your iOS device from iCloud.
