Your cellular service provider has to switch the number over. Contact their site for activation of the new iPhone.

How do I switch a number from one iPhone to another?

I've had an iPhone 5 for about 2 months but recently dropped it in a lake and had to get a brand new one. I was wondering how I can switch my number, service, etc. from my old phone to the brand new one I just received. Thanks!

If you have a nanoSIM that is for your cell provider just activate it and it should set it up.

You do a restore as new to wipe the iPhone then at the end of restore you will be asked to restore from backup. Choose your iPhone backup.
Note you cannot restore an IOS newer than the IOS on iPhone, you need to update iPhone first.

If your device is Not recognized, try these suggestions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1852
Copy all content to your computer, including the photos taken with your old device, explained in this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
You'll have to use iTunes to copy the photos you imported to your computer to your new iPad again.
If the photos are not part of the camera roll, you'll have to use 3rd party software to copy them to your computer.

how do i disassociate my iPhone with my old phone number? (the phone number is now actually being used by a regular flip phone and without doing this, iphones will not be able to message me via text message.)

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

You can't use the IMEI number for tracking it, you can only potentially do that if you had Find My iPhone enabled on it - if you did then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com or the Find My iPhone app on another iOS device.
For the IMEI number, do you have you got the phone's box or have a backup of the phone on your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4061 ?
If it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

How can I delete Apple ID from my old phone that it is not with me?

How can I delete Apple ID from my old phone?

You cannot delete Apple ID. You can change the password so the Apple ID without the correct password will be useless for others.
If you still have the old iPhone:
Wipe iPhone/iPad/iPod touch clean
There are a few steps to do:
Switch off iMessage in Settings > Messages
Switch off FaceTime in Settings > FaceTime (iPod touch 4th Generation or later, iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later)
Delete iCloud in Settings > iCloud > Delete Account
Finally Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
If device is registered: Un-register your device: https://supportprofile.apple.com
Now you can sell/give.

How do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto? Photoes came across, video said incompatible.

how do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto? Photoes came across, video said incompatible.
i have moved from a mac pro to a mac mini,
Mini now has mavericks and latest iLife stuff, I clicked import, was all good, then at end, no videos came across.
Is Mavericks,/iPhoto having a compatibiltiy issue with some video formats....???
Your help is appreciated gang.: )

Please describe exactly what you did. In moving to a new machine no importing is involved. The best way is to simply connect the two computers together and drag the iPhoto library from the old one to the pictures folder go the new one and launch iPhoto

Restore the device from the backup created.
If no backup exists, there is nothing to recover.

It will be backed up on your computer and can later be restored to an iOS device using iTunes, if desired. Of course, if your hard drive crashes you'll lose it if it isn't backed up somewhere else. If you want to included it in your computer backup, it will be located at one of the following locations:
Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
Windows XP: %AppData%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows Vista: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows 7: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive

How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive? I have an iMac with a 320gb internal HD that is full and I am replacing it with a 2tb internal drive. I have several external drives; 1 tb, 2tb and 3 tb. The 2 tb is being used for Time Machine. Do I have to buy an enclosure? If so, where would I get an inexpensive one?
I also want to partition the new internal drive for Windows, and I'm not sure how much space to use for that. I plan to use Windows to check my work in PowerPoint created on my Mac for clients on PCs.

Do you already have Time Machine making backups onto the 2TB drive? If so, after you get the internal drive replaced, boot up into the recovery partition (hold down ⌘R) and restore the latest Time Machine backup that you have onto the new internal drive.
I recommend always having two backups. I'd use SuperDuper to make a complete clone of your internal drive onto an external drive in addition to having the Time Machine backup.
Boot Camp is what is used to make partitions for Windows. How much space to allocate depends on how much space you expect Windows to use up based on how you plan to use it.

How do I retrieve my pictures from my old phone.

I upgraded my phone from the Rogue to the Vortex and the reseller said they transferred all my contacts. After I got home I discovered that my pictures were not transferred. How do I get the pictures from my old phone to either my new phone or at least my computer or the Verizon online picture album since it wasn't done beforehand?

Does the Rogue have a micro SD card? The easiest way (IMO) is to move all the pics onto the card. The phone does not need to be activated to do this.
Then insert the card to your computer and copy all the information to the computer. From this point, you can reformat the card for the Vortex and move or copy the pics back so you can use them on the Vortex. If you don't need them all, you can just leave them on the computer.
To send them to the online album, the phone would need to be activated. It does not need to be activated to transfer the pics to an SD card and then to your computer.
HTH,
