How to migrate iPhone apps and data to another apple ID

OK, Hopefully someone can help me out with this situation: I have had my daughter's iPhone associated with my Apple ID for several years now because A) She was too young to have an Apple ID of her own, and B) I wanted to be able to monitor her App Store purchases and such. Well now that she is older and has proven herself to be a responsible young lady, I want to get her her own Apple ID, as she will be getting a new McBook as a graduation present. My question is this: Is it possible to migrate all the apps and data from her phone to a new Apple ID without having to download all those apps again? I backup her phone to my computer on a regular basis. Any help is appreciated.

hold on a second. i went thru the same situation with my daughter, almost exactly as she got a new macbook pro and a new iphone 4. she had an ipod touch 4g that she synced to my macbook pro and apple id for apps. with wjosten's (the guy who wrote the article randers4 linked) help we transferred purchases from her ipod touch to her new itunes on her new macbook with her new apple id. except for those apps that she already had she started all fresh. i figured at some point she'll be moving out and off to college or whatever so might as well start all fresh but she didn't want to lose data she had on some of the old apps. the only issue is when there is an update for the old apps on her new macbook pro i have to sign in on my apple id to update them. i don't know if this info will be of any help or not, but just throwing it out there.

How to backup Logic v9.1.1 before update to Logic v9.1.2?

Those programs allow you to make a disk image, meaning a bit-for-bit copy of the actual disk. It's not an incremental backup as is what you get with TM. Depending on the options you select, you can even boot from the image if necessary.
Is there a difference between this and what TM offers? Let's just say that I feel more confident in restoring a hard drive from a disk image created by one of those programs (my choice is CCC) than Time Machine. That's my personal preference.

If you mean your phone number, that has nothing to do with iOS or the updates.

here
1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finish backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

My iPhone was stolen. I just got a new one and am trying to backup my contacts and data from iCloud. How do you do that?

my iPhone was stolen. I just got a new one and am trying to backup my contacts and data from iCloud. How do you do that?

If your backup is in iCloud, and your new iPhone is already set up, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go throught the setup screens on the iPhone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts. (If it isn't set up yet, just choose this option when setting it up.)
Be sure your iPhone it connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

When I sync my iPhone 4S to my computer, where is the baseline data and documents coming from? Is the iPhone's set of apps and data the default set or are the apps and data on the computer (in the backup? in iTunes?) the default set?

I am having a great deal of trouble with the upgrade to ios 7 on my 4S. The syncing and the software updates always leave generic icon apps that I have downloaded in the past but have deleted from my phone. But they keep reappearing. A restart of the phone fixes the icons but they are loaded not at the last page of the home screen but on completely random pages, screwing up my app and folder layout.
I want to completely wipe the phone and restore the apps one by one, but I am concerned about whether the data and documents for those apps that I reinstall will be intact. Does the syncing for the apps on the phone retrieve the data from the last backup on the computer? If so, does it only sync the apps on the phone or does it try and reinstall all the apps that there is data for in the backup? In other words, does the resulting set of apps and data reflect the current state of the phone or the saved state of the backup?

Apple guys are deleting posts. I have found my posts have been deleted. Apple should MUST let us downgrade at least to previous release from current which was working fine.

How to transfer iPhone apps and their data to new MacBook Pro?

I just got the new Retina Macbook Pro. Before, I synced my iPhone with my iMac. Now I want to sync my iphone with my new RMBP instead. I transfered my music and applications to the new Mac.

How to Backup your HD and Reinstall Lion

Hello to all,
I'm a Student of Informatic Engineering studiying at UCAB in Venezuela.
I have a Macbook Pro 13" late 2011 and needed of windows and ubuntu because some projects at University needed to be developed in those OS. I did the Bootcamp to add Windows to my MacBook Pro, and did an extra partition to the Macintosh HD to install the Ubuntu. All Sucess and finished the semester. Now i dont need these OS no more because i won an Acer and now i have Windows and Ubuntu in that laptop so i want my Mac only with OSX. Besides now the OSX is startint to act funny, so i think its about the triple partition (and i dont like my apps in OSX closing for no reason, and the system is getting a bit slow).
So, my question is:
1.- How do i Backup my Macintosh HD so i dont lose all my installed apps and data.
2.- Can i use Time Machine on any External Hard Drive?
3.- How do i clear all my hd so its like brand new, and Reinstall Lion (because when i bought the Mac it didnt came with an OS CD)
Thanks for any help you may bring me..
I'm Sorry for any misspelled word, English is not my main Language.
MacBook Pro 13" (Late 2011)
Specs:
Processor: Intel Core i7 2.8Ghz
Ram: 16GB 1333 Mhz DDR3
HD: 750 GB (Macintosh HD: 550 GB, Bootcamp: 160GB, Ubuntu: 40GB)
Graphics: Intel HD 3000

1.- How do i Backup my Macintosh HD so i dont lose all my installed apps and data.
2.- Can i use Time Machine on any External Hard Drive?
3.- How do i clear all my hd so its like brand new, and Reinstall Lion (because when i bought the Mac it didnt came with an OS CD)
1. Use Time Machine - it's on your Mac.
2. Yes - if the external has enough space.
3. After you back up, use the steps described in this Macworld article to make a clean install of OS X. Basically you reboot while holding down the command and R keys and proceed from there.

Can I restore settings, apps and data from an external hard drive to new Macbook Pro?

I recently lost my Macbook Pro to water damage. It was about 3 years old and tuned for comfort. Unfortunately, my most recent backup is at least 3 months old. I purchased a new MacBook Pro and I'm wondering what my options are for migrating my settings, apps and data from the old hard drive to the new MacBook Pro? I have a USB drive bay that I plan to attach to the new MBP to gain access to the old hard drive. Someone suggested Migration Assistant but my research hasn't turned up any information about migrating data from an external drive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

THANKS! I guess my research wasn't THAT thorough. I booted with the external drive attached and setup immediately gave me the option to setup using Migration Assistant. It was a little slow via USB (2+ hours) but it was nothing compared to the time it would have taken to do it manually. My new 15" MBP looks exactly like my old 13" MBP. AWESOME!!!
Thanks again!

I am trying to backup my apps and I've already authorized my computer, but I get an error saying I need to authorize my computer.

I am trying to backup my apps and I've already authorized my computer, but it's giving me the error that I need to authorize my computer even though I already have.

I am having a similiar problem. I did not ever have the problem with Lion and my 4gen iPad.
I allowed the Mavericks update just about the same time that AppleCare put a new Motherboard in this computer, so I don't know if either of those has anything to do with this or not? (4 year old MBP 17 dual i7)
But now when I reboot my MBP, it tells me that this computer is not authorized to play, sync, etc.. with my iPod (or iPhone) and asks me for my password. With I enter it, I get a message that says "This computer is already authorized". I have 4 Apple ID's and it asks me to enter that information for every single one and then tells me that the computer is already authorized.
How can I enter this ONCE and make it stick?
Thanks,
Kirk
