How do i switch my 3gs to iphone 4

how do i switch my 3gs to iphone 4.
I already have the new sim card...
Do i just put it in and turn on the phone and  Icloud does the rest?

I guess I wasn't very clear.
I have an old 3GS.
And I have a new iPhone 4.
I want to Activate the iPhone 4 and discontinue use of the 3GS.
I am thinking if I just put the Sim card into the new iPhone 4 and restore from iCloud then I will be done.
iCloud will do everything to transfer the information by itself.
Right?

    This was always there but now there is only an option to switch off 4g,how can I also switch off 3g.

    This thread has osme info related to what you are requesting. It looks like after some carrier updates that this option may be gone.

  • Somehow gained 6GB of storage in transfer from 3gs to iphone 4

    I switched from 3Gs to Iphone 4. Both are 32gb. I downloaded new OS and am using current itunes. I updated all apps and then backed up 3gs. I then activated Iphone 4 and restored from backup. The number of apps, music, photos and videos are the same between 3Gs and 4 under usage. Somehow I now have 6 free GB in my iphone 4 where my 3Gs was almost full. Everything appears o be working fine but I feel like 6Gb is a pretty large discrepency between two phones with the same amount of data and I am worried about trouble down the road before i lose my 3Gs backup. Anyone run across this or have a good explanation? I appreciate the help.

    Plug your 3GS in and see how much space each thing is taking, then plug your iP4 in and compare. Woulda' been easier than posting.

  • HT4623 how can i switch my iphone 3gs at&t to t-mobile?

    i am a t-mobile customer, i had a tmobile network phone, it broke, so i bought a iphone 3gs and its at&t, how do i switch it to tmobile?

    You would have to contact AT&T.  They are the only folks (as the original cellular carrier of the iPhone) that could possibly unlock it.

  • HT201084 My family shares one Apple ID on multiple devices.  How do I switch everyone over to their own Apple ID without having to erase their iphones and ipads?

    My family currently shares one Apple ID on multiple devices and has for quite awhile.  How do I switch everyone over to their own Apple ID and the Family Sharing without having to erase their iphones and ipads?

    Thank you again for your time, GB.
    I set up individual Apple ID's for my children so that they could have their own Apple ID on their individual iPad minis (gifts from grandparents last year).  When I go to iCloud under Settings, I see my Apple ID listed at the top, then my children's listed under Family Sharing.  So the device is still using my Apple ID for iCloud, iTunes, etc., correct?
    To "assign" their own Apple ID to their own iPad mini, I would need to "Sign Out" from my Apple ID.  When I attempt to do so, I receive a warning that all of the Documents and Data will be lost/deleted. 
    So, instead of doing this, I figured out that I could do what you suggested.  Signing in using a child's Apple ID will allow her/him to use Game Center, FaceTime, and Messages just fine.  However, using their Apple ID for iTunes & App Store proved to be a problem:  Purchased Music and Movies appeared in iTunes, but my Purchased Apps did not appear.  Some Apps even disappeared, e.g. Proloquo4Text (a $99 app to help my son speak with his iPad).
    So I reverted to using my Apple ID for iTunes & App Store, and I get everything that I want, EXCEPT for the iCloud storage for each Apple ID.
    So that's when I started wondering how Family Sharing was really benefiting me ~ It was a lot of work (deleting apps to allow space to download iOS 8, etc) without any benefit that I can see.  UNLESS I find a means to allow me to sign in each iPad's iCloud account with a different AppleID, then perhaps restore the Documents and Data from a backup?  Would that work?
    Thanks.

  • Someone keeps putting my iPhone into lost mode in my other cloud account, and I keep getting out. How do I switch the cloud account to this one, so they won't be able to do it again

    Well, for the last week someones been putting my iPhone constantly in lost mode using my apple account and I keep getting out because I know my own password. I want to change the password but two other people I know use it, (who definetly wouldn't do this), someone else probably got ahold of the account and is spamming the phones into lost mode. I'm not in lost mode currently by the way. This repetition is really a hassle for me because I'm not always connected to the internet to get out of the lost mode, a few days ago, I went on a 12 hour flight and both my apple devices were probably put into the lost mode and I wasn't able to use my iPhone or iPad to do work and entertainment purposes. I was literally sitting there for 12 hours! So now that you sat through my problem, which I thank you for greatly, how do I switch apple/cloud accounts on my devices so this won't happen again? I hope you can give my solution, if there is one out there, and thank you in advance for atleast trying to solve my problem.

    The only way this can happen is with access to your id and password
    Read this and focus on "changing your Apple id"

  • I have 1 apple id, 2 5S iPhones with separates numbers and both ring when I get a call on one of the numbers. How do I switch that of ?

    I have 1 Apple ID, 2 5S iPhones (1 private/1 work) with separates numbers and both phones ring when I get a call on one of the numbers. How do I switch that of ?

    I realize that my wife could make her own iTunes account; however, she's been using mine for about 2 years now and this hasn't been an issue.  I guess with the Family Sharing she can have access to all of our music and apps now with her own account. 
    I'll have to see if unchecking our emails resolves this issue.

  • How do I switch my iphone 4s from one apple id to another apple id?

    How can I switch my phone from one Apple ID to another Apple ID and keep all my apps/information?
    I want to use the same ID between my ipod and iphone.
    Is this possible?

    I'm assuming each device uses its own icloud account and you want them both to use the same account, but not lose data from the device you will do the switch on.  If this is the case you need to copy the data from the "old" account to the other account ....
    When connected to the account you want to GET data from, Go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. 
    When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. 
    After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.
    Note that this only affects the "Apple data" like contacts, calendars, reminders, etc.  Many third party apps also use iCloud to store data files there.  These files may be lost in the process, unless the apps also keep the data locally on the device.
    NOTE:  Photos in the photo stream (if you use it) will not transfer to the new account.  It is advised that you save the photos to a computer before performing the account switch. 

  • HT4976 how can I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS????

    how can  I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS In wts app nd version ov this is 5.1.1(9B206)????????

    Once the keyboard is connected, it should work with any app that uses the standard keyboard interface, so it will work with iWork.
    br121: iWork was released for iPad quite some time ago, and updated for iPhone 4 recently.

  • How do I switch my 6th generation over to my new iTunes account and put all my songs from my iPhone onto it?

    How do I switch my 6th generation over to my new iTunes account and put all my songs from my iPhone onto it?

    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a abckup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
