HT201269 can I transfer ios 6 to ios 7? and if I back it up and put it on a iphone will it be ios 7 or ios 6

I am going to upgrade soon and I am wondering if I back up my Device which is my Iphone 3GS to a Iphone 5c. The 3gs is running ios 6 so if I back it up will it be ios 6 or ios 7 on the 5c? (I may upgrade when the Iphone 6 comes out so the 5c would be free with att)

The backup will have nohting at all to do with the ios version on the new iphone.
It will have ios 7 on it after using the backup.

    My iPhone 3GS is getting the same error. I've called Apple a bunch of times, and they won't get back to me. I'm searching through discussions to figure out a solution.

  • Can i transfer my backup to another computer and then restore my backup

    can i transfer my backup to another computer and then restore my backup

    Yes.  However, the backup file does not necessarily contain everything on your device (music, some purchases, some photos) so you want to make sure all items are backed up and transferred for safekeeping first.

    Do you have iTunes match? You need a computer to manage an iTunes match library.

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

    I should mention that if you are deadset on using a Mac, then you can run Windows 7 or 8 in Parallels. You will find about a 10% speed reduction using a VM emulation. You will also need to have at least 8 GBs of RAM in your Mac to assure optimum performance of both OS X and Windows. Do not install a later version of Windows than is supported by your software.

    You may or may not already have your network set up correctly, it's just that I can't tell from what you have said.
    I have a main router provided by my ISP, I have several other Airport Extremes and Airport expresses connected by Ethernet, all set up to bridge the network created by the main router.
    Each maker has their own settings, but bridging should be reasonably obvious. In simple terms my main router distributes IP addresses to all devices, the Airports bridge that network by passing these addresses to the devices from the main router. A base station that isn't in bridging mode will distribute its own addresses to the devices connected to it.
    I don't really follow your next point.
    instruction for configuration vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, the best course of action here is to refer to the manual. If everything is set up properly the addresses of everything on your network will have identical sets of numbers for the first 3 of 4 groups of numbers that make up an address, the last set must always be different. I think the part you are referring to with your DD-WRT is the option to have Ethernet and wifi bridged or not.
    Some routers may be easier to configure than others, but generally speaking they should all work with the Apple TV. 5Ghz is less likely to suffer interference but it is much more likely to be blocked by solid objects, it may or may not be an advantage.

    Can loud tones, high pitched sounds, loud music and loud loudspeaker calls destroy iphone 5 speaker ?
    TQ

    sounds are air being moved
    if exposed to a high enough sound being moved presured impuls then
    any device could take damage
    but your speaker which are maded to move sound and be moved by sound
    would last longer then mostly anything else if your phone in terms of being damaged by sound
    so the answer is yes
    but not likely before anything else in your phone being destroied by the same loud music plus

  • Can I have iTunes music on my SSD and an external drive? How will this affect syncing to iOS devices?

    I don't have space to keep my entire iTunes library on my SSD. Currently I have my iTunes library split as follows:
    SSD: Contains a subset of music, apps, books, etc. New items usually get added here.
    External HD: Contains all of my music and iTunes media (including apps... so many apps). It's usually missing the most recent items added, due to the fact I don't plug it in so often.
    I ran into a problem maintaining these two libraries earlier while syncing my iPhone. When I tried to sync the iPhone with the SSD library, it would delete apps off of my phone because they weren't contained in the iTunes library there, even though I had the same base .itl file for both the SSD and the external libraries.
    What I want to do is set it up so that I maintain a core of music on my SSD and the stuff I don't listen to as often on my external hard drive. I also want to keep all the space hogs (movies, apps, etc) on the external as well. However, I want this to appear as one seamless iTunes library and I DON'T EVER WANT ANYTHING DELETED FROM MY PHONE WHEN I SYNC IT. I want to be able to sync my phone without worrying that apps will be deleted and I'll have to restore them from iCloud and reset all the settings, sign in, etc. Right now I am backing up to iCloud, but my understanding is that iTunes will still delete things from my phone if they are not available in the library.
    My question: How do I accomplish this? I have a lot of metadata in my iTunes library that I don't want to lose (playcounts, ratings, etc).
    I currently have this:   SSD: .itl file pointing to music on the SSD, a mixture of iTunes media (some that I want easily accessible, some I don't)
                                      External drive: .itl file pointing to music on the external drive, all of my iTunes media (except for anything I may have added to the SSD)
    I think I need this:       SSD: .itl file pointing to music on the SSD and the external, music that I listen to often
                                     External drive: music that I don't listen to often, things that take up a lot of space
    My thought process is that I will need to somehow move music from the external to the SSD while maintaining the pointers so that iTunes knows where they are. For this I have unchecked "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy Files to iTunes Media Folder When Adding To Library," and to maintain the pointers and move the songs, I'm thinking of using Doug's Applescripts for "Relocate Selected:" http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=relocateselected
    Once I have the songs split across these drives, I'm going to copy the .itl file from the external to the SSD and boot it up to see if it works.
    Two things: 1.) Will this approach work? Can I maintain my library across separate drives this way and have it be seamless? I understand I won't be able to access the media on my external hard drive when it is not plugged in (duh), but...
    2.) Will it affect syncing? When my external isn't plugged in, will iTunes try and delete things from my iPhone? It should still be able to "see" them, it just won't be able to access them. Will I have to turn off syncing apps while syncing with my external device unplugged?
    Thanks very much for any help and insight! It is greatly appreciated as I deal with limited storage space and an expanding iTunes library.

    This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.

    You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that.  iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
    I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.

  • HT201269 Can I transfer music from my ipad2 to my iPhone 4S without a computer?

    Apple replaced my phone and lost all my music other than what was purchased on iTunes. My iPad still has all my music. My PC died 2 days ago so I have no computer. Can I transfer the music on my iPad to the new iPhone?

    I forgot to add, once you replace your dead PC (if you do), you can always get the music back from the backup of your PC - it would be in the itunes folder.
