How is it to upgrade my iPhone 4 32gb to I phone 5?

How is it to upgrade my iPhone 4 32gb to I phone 5?

If you are asking about what feature changes you will get, please visit apple.com and watch the video and the keynote presentation.
For me, the big leap from iPhone 4 to 5 was about getting Siri, the bigger screen, more dataspace as I only had a 16 GB iPhone 4.
Some people have had bad experiences with wifi and battery so keep that in mind though Apple is replacing handsets that for whatever reason are having those issues.
iPhone 5 also has a better repairability rating.
If you are asking how to migrate your data to your iPhone 5, then there are several ways. First, back up your data to iCloud and to iTunes version 10.7. Make certain any photographs or voice recordings are saved on your computer as some people have lost photos and voice memos by syncing data.
When you connect to iTunes, you should be given an option to restore from backup and then you can try restoring your apps and data from iTunes by selecting your most recent backup file. This is the easiest way but sometimes results in some issues with the phone.
If that happens do a clean restore and don't use the backup file but re-sync everything manually. As I said previously, make certain your important information such as photos, contactsm voice memos, etc are stored on your computer so that you can get these back on your device.
I hope this has helped. If not, please post a clearer response.
Have a good day!

  • I lost my Visual Voicemail when upgrading to iphone 5. New phone was set up from itunes backup of iphone4 but my Mac tells me there is an iCloud back up of my phone prior to this date. Will my Vis Voicemail be on this and can I get it on my new phone?

    I lost my Visual Voicemail when upgrading to iphone 5. New phone was set up from itunes backup of iphone4 but my Mac tells me there is an iCloud back up of my phone prior to this date. Will my Vis Voicemail be on this and can I get it on my new phone?

    I see.  Apple's documentation on what is included in the iCloud backup doesn't explicitly say that it contains voicemails, but that doesn't mean it does not.  You would just have to try restoring the backup to find out. 
    To restore to your iCoud backup you have to start by erasing the phone.  Go to Settings>General>Reset and 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.  You will then sign into your iCloud account, accept the terms and conditions, then choose the backup you wish to restore from.  To see an older backup, you may need to tap "Show older backups" (see image below).  Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.
    If this does not recover your voicemails, you can check to see if you have an older iTunes backup that may contain them.  Available backups are shown in iTunes Preferences>Devices on the Backups list.
    If all else fails, you could try contacting your carrier.  Voicemail is a carrier feature and they may have an archive you could access.

  • How to delete the Data from Iphone 5 when the Phone is damaged.

    Dear All,
         I am using Iphone 5 , my Cell phone got damaged and its at service center . how could i delete my personal data , so that no one can see it .
    Please upodate . Its urgent

    The Service Center is likely going to need to get into your phone to test their fixes. Not sure what personal data you are referring to, but since it is in a myriad of places, it's not really somehing you can do anything about. You would have to either Lock or Wipe your phone, and either one of those things would prevent the servicer from being able to get in an test things....
    Do you not trust the people who you left your device with to be repaired?

  • HT1620 How can I do upgrade my iPhone 4 iOS 6.1.3

    Plz help me.......

    Too late. Confusion descended.  6.1.3 is the latest iOS for the iPhone 4.    6.1.4 is relevent only for the iPhone 5, and not relevent for the iPhone 4, which is why it is not made available. So you can stop claiming "iOS 6.1.4" on your signature, because you haven't got it and you won't get it. 

  • Upgrading to iPhone and adding old phone back onto plan later... is it possible?

    I am on the verge of upgrading my non-smart-LG Octane to an iPhone. Currently my husband has a very very cheap Tracfone, which is fine for him as he rarely uses it- we don't have a land line so it's basically an emergency phone. However, Tracfone is not that great and his cheap phone is falling apart. My current Verizon plan is just for one phone, with no data plan. If I upgrade to an iPhone now, can I hang onto my Octane and add it back to my current plan as his phone later on if he decides he would rather do that than keep the Tracfone? Last time I upgraded I was able to let him have my old phone and use it as the second phone on the Verizon plan, but I want to be sure I can do it later on instead of having to decide when I get the iPhone. I'm trying to keep my costs down as much as possible, and he won't be needing a data plan (I don't have one currently) so I want to wait until know for certain what the iPhone will cost monthly before deciding if it's a good idea to add another Verizon line and give up the very cheap Tracfone line. Thanks for any help you can give!

    Yes, you can upgrade now, add the data plan for the iPhone ($30 for 2 GB data), and then later add a second line using the Octane.  At that point you MAY have to switch to the Share Everything, since you are on an individual (I'm assuming) Nationwide plan with limited minutes; the option to add a line and make it shared plan may convert it to SHare Everything (unlimited minutes and texting, shared data).
    In either case, you don't need to decide when you upgrade to the iPhone.  The options will be similar now or later.

  • 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.

  • I updated to iOS 6.1.2 and my battery is dying at an accelerated rate, how can this be fixed? (iPhone 5)

    I updated to iOS 6.1.2 and my battery is dying at an accelerated rate, how can this be fixed? (iPhone 5)

    Put the phone into airplane mode for a little while and see if the battery still drains at the accelerated rate.   If so, there is some type of service/app that is draining your battery.
    First, try turning off all unused notifications.   That did the trick for me when I had this problem.

  • I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes.   Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

    I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes.   Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

    Is this the note you are referring to:
    Not sure if this can help you.
    I checked my notes. They are stored here:
    MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
    xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
    If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
    If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
    If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.
    Thanks

    Connect your iPhone to the computer with which you normally sync and

    "Sounds like you guys are using the same apple id for imessage.   You will need to create a separate id for you wife.  OR go to settings - message - receive&send and make sure your phone number is the default for both you and yoru wife.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
    Its wrong to assume that everyone has a backup copy.
