HT201269 Hi this was useful however the phone I want to transfer my messages isn't new, it has already been setted up. What do I do without having to set up my phone again?

How do I transfer data (messages) from old iphone to an iphons which has already been setted up?

The only method to restore SMS/iMessages is to restore from a backup. The backup contains the SMS/Messages. You cannot selectively restore from the backup, it is all or none.

    You can restore from the backups that you made in icloud

    I'm having the EXACT same problem. :( I'm glad I'm not the only one.

  • I just bought an iphone and created an apple id. When I entered my credit card number, I also put in the number of the itunes card that i bought. Now, when I go to buy music from the itunes store, it says my card has already been redeemed. What can I do?

    I havent used it to buy anything yet... and i dont wanna waste my money. Can anyone help??

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

  • HT201272 I accidentally deleted an album from my iTunes library and now that i want to re download it is saying that it has already been purchased but i don't have it how do i get the album back?

    I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?

    Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

  • Feature with ID 15/.. has already been installed. Use the force attribute to explicitly re-install the feature

    Hi everyone,
    I really become desperate with this one. I know, it's mentioned hundred times in the web, and it really works when you use a force deployment, but my simple question is: Why?
    To explain my issue: We have several SharePoint 2010 solutions which we want to deploy to SharePoint 2013 with Visual Studio 2012 running on Windows Server 2012. Site solutions work. But farm solutions just don't. I get the error (you
    guessed it): A feature with ID 15/... has already been installed in this farm. Use the force attribute to explicitly re-install the feature.
    And it does really work with the force attribute, but why on earth do you have to use the force flag? Something has to be different, and if there is an already installed feature with this ID, then why can Visual Studio not uninstall or
    deactivate it by itself first? This error never occurred with SharePoint 2010 and VS2012, although features are already installed. 
    Thanks a lot for your effort.
    Best regards,
    Patrick

    Hi Check this
    1.Double click on the feature.... ( or right click and choose properties)
    2.then in the properties window make
    3. ALWAYS FORCE INSTALL = false... (this should be false)

  • "This iCloud account has already been added to your iPhone"

    I have iCloud set up on my device.  I have my Apple ID associated with a new .me address.  I can sign in to iCloud.com and type in my AppleID and password and view, send and receive email from my .me address.  My AppleID and me .me address are two separate things.
    However, my phone has no mailbox set up. When I touch the mail app icon, my iPhone prompts me to add an account.  If I select iCloud, there are two possibilities that both result in the same error. The options are:
    1: enter my .me address and password
    2: enter my Apple ID and password
    The error is: "This iCloud account has already been added to your iPhone."
    Anyone else having this problem?
    (I have the exact same setup on my iPad 1, and it's working as normal, I can use the mail app on iPad to access, send and receive email from my .me address)

    I fixed it.  The answer is to remove the iCloud account from the device from Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and then to re-add the account via mail.

  • Cannot download purchase - enter code has already been used

    I purchased a six book set of audiobooks which I cannot download. When I proceed to the link emailed to me by Apple, the enter code page has my code entered in the box with a red message beneath that says, "Code has already been used once." I can proceed no further. Nothing has been downloaded and I have written iTunes support three times. Eleven days have passed since I made my purchase and I have received no confirmation of the resolution of this problem from iTunes. The books appear in my Apple account order history but do not appear in my iTunes account purchase history. HELP! I am so frustrated! I feel like I have thrown $300 out the window.

    Just to confirm, what "iTunes Support" are you referring to? Did you use the form at the bottom of this web page (or one like it elsewhere on the iTMS Customer Support pages)?

  • I'm really sorry if this has already been addressed...iMovie problems

    Hello, I'm new to the forums. I have a problem, and I apologize if it has already been addressed.
    I have a Canon DC-40, which does not have firewire. I love iMovie, and would not even consider using a Windows based movie editor...:) Once I finish my mini DVD on my camcorder, I can burn it onto a DVD so that I can put it inside my iBook G4. The only problem is, if I try to import it, it will start to import than abrubptly stop importing.
    I have come to realize that I need to convert my files to .mov, but my files are in .vob. Is there some good programs out there that will help convert my DVD into a format that iMovie will accept?
    I have tried several things, converting the .vob into .wmv, (I can use windows applications on my mac) with no avail. It's frustrating, I just want to edit some movies! :P
    Any help or even a link to another topic covering this will be so greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time!

    Sorry, I just found a thread about my problem! I would delete the post but I can't figure it out yet!

  • 7.1 Error: transaction type SMIN has already been included in the categoriz

    Hello Experts,
    I'm getting the following error while running a program AI_CRM_CREATE_CAT_SCHEMA:
    Error: transaction type SMIN has already been included in the categorization schema - SAP_SOLUTION_MANAGER_TEMPLATE.
    Please remove SMIN from application area of SAP_SOLUTION_MANAGER_TEMPLATE and then run this report again.
    Can you please advice how to resolve this?
    Thank you,
    123

    I invite the colleagues that if they do not have a solid answer to a question, please do not bother on answering it.   Even the guide does not say how to get rid of that error.  The guide on page 17 says "Please ensure that there is no active categorization schema for the transaction types listed above before you run the report".   Well, how do you do that?   Also the guide says to create a version of the schema, and release that new schema, but that still does not work.  You go into the new schema version to delete all entries related to SMIN, but even after that you still get the same error trying to run the report AI_CRM_CREATE_CAT_SCHEMA.
    I am writting all this because from the answers above:
    Answer 1, the SAP Note:  They do not mention anything about schema.
    Aswer 2 and 3.                 Already answered.  The implementation guide does not help as mentioned above.
    Answer 4.                        This error has nothing to do with copying SMIN into ZMIN.
    Please accept my complaint and do not get offended.  We all know we are trying to help one another, although it is nicer to save time getting to the correct answer faster.
    Thanks,
    Juan

  • Is there a way to find out how much data was used over the lifetime of my phone (cumulative cellular and wifi)?

    Is there a way to find out how much data was used over the lifetime of my phone (cumulative cellular and wifi)?
    I was just curious

    Given that the phone doesn't track how much data is used over WiFi, no. And cellular data usage can be reset.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

  • Using iMessage 8.0 with Mavericks to send sms message to my friend who has an iPhone.  Only allows me to log in under AIM, YAHOO, GOOGLE, or BONJOUR.  I don't want to do any of that.  Just my phone number.  Is this possible?

    Hi,
    The first run of Messages will ask you to enter an Apple ID to "register' with iMessages.
    If you do not do this but open the App and look in Preferences > Accounts then you will see the iMessages account and the Bonjour Account which will not be activated.
    Neither of these two account can be deleted. (even if not being used)
    If you then press the + icon to add you will get the choices you posted.
    To iMessage you need to "register" and Apple ID with the iMessages service.
    As Diane then points out you can link this to your iPhone number.
    This "syncs" (Displays on all devices) the various iMessages sent to either iPhone or Apple ID
    You can then chose  on both iPhone or Mac version how or which ID/Number is going to be used to "Start the conversations from"
    I have my Mac version set to start from my Apple ID and the iPhone from it's number.
    At this moment the Mac version cannot send SMS text messages to an iPhone.
    This is apparently coming with iOS 8 and OS 10.10 (Yosemite)
    An AIM account can send SMS Messages but only to a limited number of USA based phone users on these carriers.
    (Basically you add a phone number with country code +1 as a Buddy to your List)
    Mocked up number  (It not really an auto responder although you do get sent back and Error message about it not being valid)

  • I am trying to decrease the size of my aperature library on my MB Pro HD.  I used  file\ relocate master to move files to my External HD(EHD) and this worked.  However, the size of my MBP library has not decreased.

    I am trying to decrease the size of my aperature library on my MB Pro HD.  I used  file\ relocate master to move files to my External HD(EHD) and this worked.  However, the size of my MBP library has not decreased.  I do not want to delete the files on my MB Pro until I am confident Aperature can see the files on the EHD.  It looks like the relocate master fxn just copies the masters and data to another location. 

    Relocate master (or original in newer versions) does move and not copy the master file. Jut to make sure I just ram a test and moved some images out of the library to an external drive and they were definitely gone from the Aperture library.
    If you look at the images in the library that you moved do they have the referenced file badge? If you run a filter on your library looking for referenced files do the images you relocated show up? If you select one of the images and do a Show in Finder what does it show? Finally if you select the images and do Locate Referenced files do they appear listed as being on the volume you put them on?
    You could go into the library and look for the masters you moved to see if they are still there but if all the above show you they were relocated then I don;t think you will find them.
    How are you checking the library size? Have you quit Aperture and restarted it (better would be to log out and log back in) and then checked the size? It is possible that some of that data is cached and won't get updated till you restart.
    Finally you could do a library repair in case something got 'stuck'.
