How to change phones and keep account?
I have an account with Boost Mobile and I haven't had any problems with my account. I accidentally broke my phone's screen and I need to buy the same phone (LG Venice) and switch it. How can I do that without losing my number or account? And will that affect my progress in my shrinkage plan ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.Would it not be as simple as buying the phone and swapping out the SIM card?

ok, so I transferred my 3S info to my 4S by restoring from an old phone backup. But SIRI is gone and god knows what else?? Can I get my old stuff into the new phone and keep the 4S new functionality?
I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone. Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

How do I move music off my phone and keep it in my library?
Ive taken up too much memory with music on my iphone. How do I delete it on the phone and keep it on my MacBook and Ipad?
if they are things you bought in the iTunes store, then you can trasnfer them to your iTunes library

If not then you would have to use some sort of non apple software to move or transfer non puchases from your device to the library. -

the email address assoc. with my iTunes account is no longer valid. can't access it. need to change it in iTunes but can't access account. even my birthdate is incorrect in iTunes...so can't log in. any suggestions on how to log in and edit info???
There is nothing that you can do to get rid of the balance on your own. Contact iTunes Store Support and seek their assistance. I believe that they can reset your balance for you.

Need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook.......
need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook? removal of cmos, resetting laptop, using cccleaner, windows password recovery and hiren's was noneffective, any help is appreciated. thanks
Hi,
As your notebook is a business class machine, security is more stringent - the password is stored in non-volatile memory and there are no 'backdoor' passwords. Your best option would be to contact HP regarding this.

How do I make and keep a copy of a photo in iPhoto (version 9.5.1) so that I can edit the copy and keep the unedited original?
You don't have to. iPhoto does that automatically. Note the command in Photos menu to 'Revert to Original' and the original can be exported at any time using the Export command.
Longer answer:
All edits in iPhoto are virtual. The database records your decisions and then applies them to a copy of the original. So your original is untouched. Your edited version is never "fixed" until you export it. -

Bought 10 gb Uploaded Iphone and IPad2, left with 2gb space. How to view pictures and other info in ICloud? Can I upload documents from my desktop (Windows os)?
Thanks.If you backed up your iphone to icloud, then there's a chance that doing a restore might bring back your photos. I say "chance" because many users have tried that (assuming they had photos turned in for backups in settings), but ended up not getting back any photos. If that happens, then they are gone.
Remember, you should have been syncing photos all along to a computer for archiving. Don't trust the pictures to an icloud backup. -
I am currently on a plan with my parents, but my two years is up and I am due for an upgrade. My plan was to drop from my parents plan and join my fiancee's. Will I be able to get a discounted phone, and keep my existing number?
You'll need to do an Assumption of Liability. The parent that is the account owner and your boyfriend will both have to be at the store to do this. Your line is actually your parents and it will be your fiancee's once the change is made. But you should be able to get your upgrade and you definitely get to keep your number. Also depending on your fiancee's credit history there may be a security deposit required.
