It's too late for that. Maybe you should consider setting up your next iPhone to backup to iCloud... it happens automatically without user intervention once it's set up. All that's required is a power source for the phone and a WiFi internet connection.

I am almost out of space on my mac and Ipad. Need to clear songs off, but afraid I won't be able to listen without going to my external hard drive. I have Itunes match but don't know how they are accessed from the cloud. Thoroughly confused and frustrated. Hope someone can help.
Another question is my Iphotos are taking up tons of space and I don't know if they are in cloud or best way to back up. Any thoughts?If you have iTunes Match, and your music is in your Match library, you can access it from iCloud on all your devices, provided they are signed into your iTunes Match account. Make sure you keep a backup of your music somewhere though as the match process isnt' perfect and you may find that some of your iTunes Match music isn't exactly the same as the original (see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112).
The best way to back up your photos is to import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. If you are out of room on your Mac, get an inexpensive external drive to save your photos on. -
My IPhone 4 screen cracked and cant type my passcode so was not able to complete backup, any advise?
my IPhone 4 screen cracked and cant type my passcode so was not able to complete backup on ITunes as kept on asking me for passcode! can anyone help please?
sounds like you won't be able to do a backup. Hopefully, if you've been using your phone as directed, you've been backing up frequently so you won't have much data loss.

I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?
If officially unlocked, you can purchase a sim from one of the two nationwide GSM carriers, AT&T or T-Mobile. However, AFAIK, none of the carriers in India offer unlocking for the iPhone. Thus, if your phone is carrier locked, the only way it will work in the US is roaming...that would cost a fortune.
So, if you have a carrier locked iPhone, leave it home or sell it before you come to the US, then purchase an officially unlocked iPhone, from Apple, when you get to the US. You'll be able to use that phone in India when you go back. -
How can I repair my IPod n still have all my information in it or can i get a new one but still with all my information for how much
- Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. Apple does not transfer any data.
Apple - iPod Repair price
- To backup all your data to computer follow the instructions here. However, do not restore from backup until you have the replacement/repaired iPod. -
Some of the apps previously downloaded have now become blank - white box instead of picture. Name of app still appears. Have tried hard reboot and sync to make sure everything is up to date. Anybody ever had this? How can I fix?
One more thing to try. Double click on the home button. Scroll in that bottom line of icons (swipe finger to left) to the app that are all white. Hold your finger on the app until the - sign appears. Tap it to close the app. Hopefully it will then show up correctly. (As they say about chicken soup curing a cold, "can't hurt")

Should/can I still use an older airport extreme model M9397LL/A? Why buy a newer one?
Someone gave me an Airport Extreme model M9397LL/A. My daughter just moved out of our house and I was going to set it up at her new place. Would I be better off buying a newer model.
This particular AirPort Extreme can only support 802.11b/g networking, and is getting a bit "long on the tooth." I would recommend getting her the latest 5th Gen model if you really care about her.
If she only needs wireless, then the 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) would be a less expensive option. -
How can I unlink emails. When I reply the original email is attached to the new one
How can I unlink emails from each other so replies don't appear together?
I'm not clear on what exactly you're asking. If you're wondering how to make Mail stop including a quoted copy of the original message in the reply, go to the Composing tab of Mail's preferences and uncheck "Quote the text of the original message" in the Responding section.
If you're asking how to stop showing your replies mixed in with the messages that you replied to, go to the Viewing tab of Mail's preferences and uncheck "Include related messages" under "View conversations." -
How can I send my exisiting contacts to icloud. It is only backing up new contacts
Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds like those contacts may be in another account on your phone. I believe you can only move them to the iCloud account on a mac/PC. -
I really need help. My phone has fallen into my toilet and obviously won't turn on. Has anyone tried the "rice" trick to make your phone work? I would really appreciate any advice or help. I'm trying really hard not to have to look into getting a new phone all together. Thanks!
Oh no this is not good jbirdphan! We want to ensure you have a working phone. With the phone falling into water, it's now considered water damage. Do you carry insurance on the device? If so, you may file an insurance claim to replace your device. In addition, you may also check to see if you are eligible to upgrade to a new phone. To verify your upgrade date you may dial #UPG send directly from your handset.
Thank You,

I am using itunes 10.4.1.10 version nd my iphone 4 is on 4.3.5....if anyone can help me would be very greatfull.
Thank you.If you are not interested in purchasing any software, then your only other choice would be to take your iTunes backup that you made of your iTunes library and copy that over to the new computer. If you do not have that, then it could be difficult. However, if all of the content was purchased through iTunes, then after authorizing the computer with the Apple ID the songs were purchased on, you can transfer the purchases to the new computer.

My iPhone 4 screen shattered so I had to buy a new one. I backed up my shattered iPhone to iTunes so that I could restore my new one. When I went to restore it, it said that I had an incorrect password although I know it was right. I tried changing the password and it still told me that I had an incorrect password. So now my new phone has lost all its pictures, its music, its apps.... is there anything I can do to get my phone to restore?? PLEASE HELP!
If you can't get the password correct, you CANNOT restore from that backup.
However, if you've been using your phone as recommended by Apple, there should be minimal data loss.
Your iTunes library is on your computer, so you can synch all your apps, music, movies, ringtones, etc, on to your new phone.
Similarly, contacts should be synched to Address Book, Outlook, or a cloud service for you to easily synch back to your new phone.
Pictures taken from your old phone and not synched to your computer are lost, but you would have been synching those photos to your computer frequently as recommended. Other photos that you synch TO your iPhone are still on your computer.
You won't be able to get text messages back. -
have a 2 year old iphone4 that got ran over by a car and although the outside screen isn't broken it is inside somehow, is it true I can take this into an apple store and get a discount when I buy a new one? Thanks
You can exchange for an out of warranty exchange iPhone 4 at a price of $149 in US
you get an as new iPhone 4 and the Apple genius bar take your "bits"
Apple are about to offer a trade in programme in the US but I believe the donor iPhone must be in full working order to qualify -
I've broken my iPad, can the information be saved if I take it to apple and buy a new one?
I've broken my iPad, if I take it into apple can they get information from it as I've not backed it up in a while, if I buy a new one?
sorry. your data is likely unretrievable. Presuming the memory chips survived any impact, to get to them would require totally disassembling your device and frankensteining some sort of reader/connection. Which is beyond what will happen in an Apple store.
