    how do i restore icloud backup to an existing phone not a new device

    You need to perform a reset (settings>General, scroll to bottom of screen).  This will delete everything on the device.  Then connect to iTunes and it will offer to perform a reset from either iTunes backup or iCloud.  Take it from there.

  • How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?

    How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?  I did something wrong as now nothing is on my phone but several questions such as language, etc. They keep repeating.  When I turn phone completely off, the same thing happens when I turn it on.  It is very frustrating now to have no phone service or anything at all on my phone.

    It sounds as if the phone is waiting to be activated. Did you update software or something like that on the phone? You can either try to finish the Setup routine, or you can connect the device to iTunes on the computer and then after selecting the iPhone in the device pane, click on the button that says Restore a Backup.

    The only way to access iCloud backups is to Erase all content and settings, go thru the setup assistant, and when prompted to restore from iCloud backup - choose that option.

  • How do you restore to backup

    how do you restore to last backup can only find factory restore

    Easy but verified fix!
    I had this problem with my 3Gs.  After trying the backup a few times unsuccessfully, here's what worked for me:
    1-Restarted my phone
    2-Once I connected and it tried to backup, I canceled the backup message
    3-Went to the phone's setting in iTunes (namely the Apps tab) and saw that suddenly the capacity bar was full rather than empty again
    4-Removed some of the apps I didn't want on anyway
    5-Hit "Apply" in the lower right corner
    6-After the sync was complete, the phone still was not restored.  However, all I had to do then was back it up from the most recent backup (which came when I did step 5)
    7-Voila!  The phone was back.  Oddly, iTunes gave me the same error message at the end but my iPhone was working fine with iOS5!

  • Bookmarks - how do you restore from backups?

    My bookmarks disappeared......... something happened while I was trying to copy old folders into the new User - and it made it disappear from my old user account!
    How do you restore the bookmarks from the BackUp on MobileMe iDisk, or even the one that is on my iPhone? Should still be there............
    everything says it's Syncing but the bookmarks don't seem to want to restore..........
    Thanks

    Hi
    Let's try a different approach as something odd has occurred with your iDisk.
    What is your "old folder" source? If it contains the HD>Users>Your User Account>Library>Safari folder, inside there you'll find bookmarks.plist. Move it to the same location on your computer, replacing the existing file.

  • HT4859 How do you restore a backup from iCloud?  My notes somehow disappeared and I can't figure out how to restore

    My notes disappeared for some reason.  How do I restore from iCloud?  Went into backup but couldn't find an option for restoring!  Help?

    The backup will first restore you app data and other settings, it will then restart and restore your camera roll photos, apps and other purchased media.
    If you're concerned about losing purchased media you can always transfer them to your iTunes librarry first.  To do this, make sure your computer is authorized for all Apple IDs used to purchase your media (in iTunes: Store>Authorize This Computer).  Then connect your phone and in iTunes go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  This way, should anything go missing you can always sync it back from iTunes.
    iCloud should maintain your last three backups.  You will be asked to choose which backup to restore to after choosing to restore to iCloud backup and signing into your iCloud account during the setup screens.

  • How do you restore a backup from icloud

    Hi All:
    So I went into my notes today to get some information there and poof, nothing, it's blank..... trying to think if I shut off it being backed up or not I went into settings and all my icloud settings were OFF.
    Well, I logged into icloud on my computer and all my notes are there.... whew....
    Now... how do I get the notes from icloud to my iphone? I have all the options turned on in settings but it will not refresh or show my notes..
    Am I missing something here?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Open the notes app and tap Accounts, then tap iCloud; see if they appear now.  If they don't, delete the iCloud account, then sign back in.  Start by saving any photo stream photos older than 30 days to your camera roll (unless already there) or you will lose them.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, scroll down and tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud).  Then sign back in to sync your iCloud data back to your phone.  See if your Notes appear now.

  • How do you restore  icloud data to new phone

    I have just gotten a replacement phone and I think I correctly saved my data on icloud.  Now I want to restore it on the new phone.  I can't seem to figure out how to do it .  Please help.

    If the phone is already set up, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts.  Make sure it's connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.

  • How do you delete icloud backup in wondows?I have 400 icloud messages in my email--all iclouds problems.

    There are no iCloud messages.
    Are you referring to email, iMessages, or something else?

    We are users like yourself, not "apple people".  Frankly if it is difficult for someone to clearly communicate the issue there are having it is virtually impossible for any of us to offer relevant assistance.
