How to restore a 5s backup to a new iPhone 6

I lost my 5s at the bottom of a lake. I've been limping along with a dumb phone for the few weeks before the new iPhone 6 ships.
I have a backup from right before I lost the 5s. I'm planning to buy an iPhone 6 right away.
My question: Since my backup is iOS 7, not 8---and since the iPhone 6 comes with iOS 8 installed---how can I restore my data from my backup in the older iOS onto my new phone? Is it possible?

You Welcome! Remember, Apple wants that you acquire the new models and transfer your backup from older ios or devices will be able to do it

    everytime i want to restore my previews backup to my new iphone, itunes asks for my password, when i enter my password it tells me my password is incorrect, but its not! i have even changed my password. but still nothing! I get the same error from itunes!!!!

    Try using your computer password. I tried any password I could think of relating to my phones, but it was none of them; it was, in fact, my computer password.

  • How to restore a older backup with a new SIM

    Hi everyone!
    I have a problem. I have a Iphone 4, which I bought with a contract in the UK. I recently went to a shop to unblock it (I live in France now)
    Before I unlocked it I made a back up (i am new to this stuff) and now my phone is working with a new SIM card but when I do a back up from the Itunes, nothing comes back. I only see the apps that I downloaded in my Itunes, but no texts/emails/messages/photos. I made a newer back up/sync after that by mistake. But that wouldnt be a problem right? I can choose an older back up but it doesnt do much....
    I tried it once before I dropped my phone at a shop to unlock it, and I could restore it but it took 3 hours so I cancelled. If I restore my backups now, it only takes a few seconds. So I think it is lost??
    So somebody, please help me. I dont know what to do! I lost all my contacts etc...
    Please...!
    Cheers

  • How can I merge 2 backups in one new Iphone?

    I used to have two different devices and now I bought a new one. I want to restore both backups in the new device... How can I do this??
    Thank you in advance

    Restore backup #1 to device.
    Import (to your computer) the photos that are restored to the device.
    Restore backup #2.
    Import (to your computer) the photos that are restored to the device.
    Repeat as needed if you have multiple backups.
    Then, restore whichever backup has the other, most relevant data.
    You can then use iTunes to sync whatever photos that are on your computer to your iPhone.

  • How to Restore  a DP backup

    hi,
    i have backed up a SAP Database backup (SMB) using HP data protector.
    The backup was successful
    But, there is no way to restore that using the Data Protector
    Please let me know how to restore this SMB backup
    is it possible to restore using HP DP or do we have to use BRRESTORE option?
    thanks

    Hi,
    Please refer section Restoring Oracle Database of this useful document ["HP Data protector Integration Guide for Oracle and SAP"|http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00751982/c00751982.pdf] to get more detailed information.
    You can restore Oracle DB directly on the Database. The Oracle Agent installed at Oracle DB host will take the whole responsibilities of DB Restore or You can dump it to other location and you can manually Restore Oracle DB.

  • How to restore using increment backup after full backup restore in RMAN?

    Hi All,
    We have a files of full backup of database after turning on the Archive log.
    And after that, daily incremental backup is taken.
    Now, i want to restore the the database into a new machine using both files of full and incremental backups. Can anybody give me script for restore of full backup and after that restore of incremental backup?
    Thanks,
    Praveen.

    Praveen,
    >>
    In my case, i have 2 sets of backups. One is full backup and other is incremental backup. In order to keep the restored database upto date, i need to restore the full backup and then restore incremental backup. Now, i got any idea how to restore using full backup. My doubt is how to update the restored database with incremental backup also?
    >>
    Restore always looks for level 0 backup, not the incremental backups.
    Incremental backups comes in picture during recovery.
    During Recovery, Oracle looks for incremental backups, if exists, it will do the recovery with the incremental backups, if no incremental backups available, then, it will look for archived logs.
    Therefore, incremental backups never used during restore, they are used only during the recovery.

  • HT1414 How do you restore an old backup? The new one with the stuff I didn't need was backed up and overwrote my old one.

    Pages wasn't working so someone told me to delete it and redownload it. Of course, our school told us not to use Cloud since there wasn't much space and now I lost most of my notes. I think I backed it up before I deleted it though but when I reconnected by iPad, it rebacked up everything and I don't know how to restore from previous backups. Help please!

    You may not have any previous backups if iTunes overwrote the only backup that you have.
    Launch iTunes on your computer (do not connect the iPad yet) and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Check the box at the bottom that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. You can also see if you have multiple backups for the iPad in that window. If you do - Click OK and quit iTunes. If you don't have another backup, just turn on auto sync again. There is nothing that that you can do if you don't have another backup.
    Assuming that you did have another backup - connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPad name under devices and select - Restore from Backup. If you have multiple backups, you can select the one that you want from the drop down menu in the pop up window.

  • How to restore RMAN hot backup to another database on another server?

    I want to know how to restore RMAN hot backup from production server to another database on a testing server.
    The hot backup is from a database named PROD on the production server
    The database to be restored with the hot backup is TEST on the testing server. There is already a PROD database on the testing server and this PROD database must be kept.
    I have read some threads about changing initTEST.ora to PROD to restore such backup but (I think) will not work in my case since I already have a PROD database on the testing server.
    The version is 11gR2 on Linux but the compatible parameter is set to 10.2.0.1.0.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi,
    Since you are on 11g, hope this helps you http://shivanandarao.wordpress.com/2012/04/28/duplicating-database-without-connecting-to-target-database-or-catalog-database-in-oracle-11g/

  • I am unable to restore from iCloud backup because the new phone has iOS 8.1.2 and the old phone has iOS 8.2? Any help.

    I Have just bought an iPhone 6 and want to restore my iPhone 4s via iCloud backup to the new iPhone 6. The setup of the iPhone 6 halted because according to the new phone it has iOS 8.1.2 whereas the backups were stored using iOS 8.2 following my updating of the iPhone 4S recently. How do I jump through this hoop? How do I update the new phone to iOS 8.2 without serring it up first? Anyone, please help?

    Update the new phone to the same version that has been used to create the backup. In your case, the new device has to run 8.2 to be able to use the backup made with the other device.
    Setting it back to factory settings will install the newest version and after that you can use the backup made under 8.2
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

    how to restore data file from back up on iPhone 5 docs to go

    If it backed up the lock file, then Lightroom was open when Time Machine ran, and the backup therefore may be corrupted.  You could try restoring that backup (without overwriting your week ago version) and see if it'll open.  If it does, you're off and running.  What methods have you tried?
