HT201210 how do i empty trash from my i phone

my phone will not update. i need to delete files and emtpty the trash but i do not know how to do this, can any one help

what exactly is the problem you are having? Which files are you trying to delete? Is it the 'trash' folder in the mail app that you are trying to empty?
Have you tried a basic reset of your phone to see if that will help. Press the power button and the home button until you see the apple logo then release.

How can I empty trash from outboard Time Machine back up hard drive?

I cannot wempty the trash from my outboard Time Machine Hard Drive. I keep getting error messages.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X can only restore data to the drive where Time Machine backed up files from.
If you want to restore files from the Time Machine backup onto an external drive, your only option is to access to the Time Machine drive manually (open a Finder window and choose your Time Machine drive in the Finder sidebar), navigate through its folders and copy the files you want to the external drive

How do I empty trash after deleting music, apps and photos from my iPhone to make more room for upgrading to iOS 8.1?

How do I empty trash after deleting music, apps and photos from my iPhone to make more room for upgrading to iOS 8.1? It says I don't have enough room to upgrade so I have deleted some of everything but do not see an improvement in my storage space. Help?

No need to empty anything.
You can update by connecting your phone to iTunes on your computer. This way you bypass the space limitations.
Good Luck

Usually rebooting clears it so you can empty the trash, otherwise:

Hello
I can't empty my trash. I get these signs:
"This operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items."
"Empty Trash", and "Secure Empty Trash" in the finder doesn't work
"command, option, shift, delete" - doesn't work either
Who can help me with this?
Thank you

usually, pressing option an selecting +empty trash+ from the finder menu does the trick. if it don't, you will have to get some panadol and work yourself through that article

As long as they are already ticked in your iTunes then yes. Just to check do a sync and as long as everything stays the same you are good to go.

You linked them both to the same Apple ID and thence to the same iCloud account. Don't do that.

I used the following method, which means that your contacts are permanently on your iPhone (the problem with syncing to Gmail in order to 'transfer' contacts is that you need the gmail account to be active all the time in order to see the contacts), take an example of transferring contacts from Sony to iPhone:
1. Transfer all of your contacts to the Sony Experia's internal storage. It will create a vCard file.
2. Connect your Sony Experia to a pc
3. Ensure that you can see the Sony Experia's internal storage files, and identify the location of the vCard file (for me it was in system/PIM)
4. Set up an email account on your iPhone
5. Email the vCard file to the email account on your iPhone
6. Open the vCard file attachment on your iPhone
7. You should now see your contacts and automatically have the option (in the same screen) to 'Add all xxx Contacts' where xxx is the number of contacts in the vCard file
Hope that helps.

Hi Hannah,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The article linked below will walk you through restoring the iPhone from a previous iCloud or iTunes backup.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Restore from an iCloud backup
If you have a new iOS device, or if you need to restore your iOS device to resolve an issue, follow these steps.
Follow the initial steps in the iOS Setup Assistant (select your language, and so on).
Select Restore from iCloud Backup when the assistant asks you to set up your iPhone (or other iOS device).
Select the backup you created earlier.
You can restore a backup only by using the iOS Setup Assistant.
If you've already set up your device, you can erase all current content to go through the iOS Setup Assistant again. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup, because this step will remove all current content from your device.
Use iTunes
Restore from a backup
If you have a new iOS device, or if you need to restore your device to resolve an issue, follow these steps:
Connect your iOS device to the computer that has your backup.
Make sure this computer has the latest version of iTunes.
Choose File > Devices > Restore from Back up.
If you're using iTunes 10.7 or earlier, right-click the device from the list and choose Restore from Backup.

How do I transfer apps from my old phone (4) to my new phone (4s)?

How do I transfer apps from my old phone (4) to my new iphone (4s)?

Hi,
If you have synced all your apps onto iTunes then when you sync head to Apps and tick the Sync all apps box.
Failing that you can use a laborious process of going through your apps and re-downloading them for free (using same apple account) onto your new iPhone.
Hope that helps.
PS. You should've waited for the iPhone 5 to come out!

Hi Julian,
Sorry for the delay in response, I didn't think many answers would come in so quickly being Christmas and all...
My Dad only needs to be able to access files for reference; any editing or alteration to pre-existing files would largely be done on a desktop or his laptop. In the meantime, Dropbox does look ideal and I will investigate along with the other great ideas suggested on here for the best option.
Thanks very much...
