    How do I restore my backup from ICloud onto my new iPhone?

    When setting it up you will be given the option to Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  Select this, be sure you're connected to wifi and your external charger as restoring from an iCloud backup can sometimes take quite a while to complete.
    If you already set up your new phone, go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings and start over.

  • Why can I not restore iphone from a specific backup?

    I backed up my iphone a few hours ago (making it my most recent backup), and now I am trying to restore another iphone with that same backup file. I can see it in my preferences/devices on iTunes, but when I choose "restore from backup" I do not get that specific backup file as an option to restore with.
    How do I restore my iphone to that certain backup?

    Do you have a smaller capacity micro SD card to try? I seem to remember from past posts that users were having problems with cards larger than 32GB, however, Apple's page doesn't mention this.

  • I lost my contacts - how to I restore them from my computer backup?

    I need to restore my contacts on my wife's iPhone. They mysteriously disappeared and I want to restore from her computer iTunes /backup - but when I plug the iPhone in - it begins to "backup". I'm afraid if I allow the "backup" to proceed it will wipe out the computer back-up and replace with her "empty" iPhone contacts.
    Can I simply "restore" the lost contacts from the computer?

    If you have them synced to a supported application on the computer. If the phone begins a backup as soon as you connect it, then you want to go into Settings in iTunes and turn off automatic syncing. From there, you can choose to either sync the contacts if you have them in Address Book, or Contacts, or Outlook, or restore them from iCloud, or if you have a backup of the phone, you can restore the phone to the last backup that had the contacts on it.

  • How do i restore pictures from an icloud backup?

    Hi, does any one know how do i restore an icloud backup? i have not photo streamed any of my photos on my iphone 5 and whilst trying to sort this out i have ended up deleting about a 100 photos. Is there a way of retrieveing these through using the icloud back up?

    The iCloud backup only includes camera roll photos, not photo stream photos.  If they were in the camera roll when you last backed up, restoring the backup should recover them.

  • How do I restore iBooks from time machine backup?

    through the Genius Bar I had to erase my iMacs harddrive. So far I have reinstalled iTunes, which is over a TB in size, and Safari, mail and calendars restored automatically from iCloud.
    MY trouble is I can't find iBooks on the disc I used as a time machine backup. I had over a thousand items in iBooks and really need it back!  I was surprised it didnt back up when I plugged my iPad into iTunes and put everything from my iPad back to the computer.
    THanks!

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iBooksX
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Enter Time Machine and restore the selected item from a snapshot.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • How to restore iphone from a certain backup file?

    This is for a iphone 4s.
    I have located the backup files on my PC, which is under some geberrish file name in my hard drive. I have two backup files, one from 1 week ago, one from this week. How can I choose to restore from the file that I backed up a week ago?
    I tried plugging the phone in and go through itunes, but itune only gave me the option to restore from the backup file from this week (which is no good because the new backup file has nothing in it for some reason, 0MB of file ).
    PLEASE HELP!! THANK YOU!!

    I think when you elect to restore in itunes it asks you which backup you want to use if you connect your phone to itunes and right click (for PC) then clcik restore you might get to choose

  • HT201210 how to manually restore iphone from pc

    touchscreen is unresponse and cant back up

    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • How do I restore bookmarks from an Acronis backup to a new disk?

    I am building a new computer and having trouble with Firefox.
    I am using a SSD C:\ drive and trying to put my programs on D:\ in order to save space on the SSD drive.
    I made a backup using Acronis True Image Home of my entire C:\ drive.
    I can't seem to get the bookmarks to restore from the backup. I have put it in the same folder but Firefox won't recognize it. I've tried renaming it to the same name as the folder created by Firefox and renaming the default but that doesn't work.
    I had Firefox create a brand new profile and when I look in he folder I see a folder named startupCache and a couple of others.
    In my old bookmarks folder I see six Cache files and a urlclassifier3.sqlite.
    How can I get the old bookmarks into my new Firefox profile?

    Yes, if I right click on a profile in the profile manager when I start Firefox it shows me the path to the profile. It is in the AppData\Roaming section.
    For the sake of brevity I haven't typed in the full path name, just enough to let you know where I am putting them, I hope.
    I put it there. No good.
    I just looked at the profile I restored to the AppData\Local section ( it seems Firefox puts a copy there too ) and merged the one that showed the Cache folders which came from my backup disk with the profile of the same name in the Roaming section.
    Still no go. No bookmarks showing up. If I click on the profile folder it shows the Cache files etc. are all there but it doesn't do anything.
    This has gotten very aggravating. All files seem to be where they should be but it doesn't work.
