HT201317 I backed up my iPhone 4 to the cloud. Now I've downloaded the back up to mynre iPhone 5. I've turned in photo stream on my new device but my photo stream isn't complete. What's up?
I Backed up my iPhone 4 to the cloud before purchasing my iPhone 5. I downloaded the back up to my new device, turned on photo stream but now all my photos aren't showing up in my stream. Any ideas?
Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days. Older photo stream photos are no longer in iCloud to receive. If they were in your camera roll when you last backed up your device, restoring the backup should recover them.

I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?
What fixed it for me:
On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
Uncheck "Sync Music"
Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
Let it run and finish
Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
Let it run and finish
Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
Let it run and finish
See if that doesn't work for you. I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly. -
I attempted to copy an old playlist from my imac to an old ipod and was told that i must download the songs from the cloud before i can copy the playlist to the ipod. If i down load these songs from the cloud are they no longer available from the cloud for my other devices (iphone5)?
Try re-creating your iTunes library:

I need to back my entire calendar from icloud. Now I only have montly back ups. what shall I do so i do not erase the icloud calendar?
Hey MrZuri,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following article provides steps for archiving and backing up various content from iCloud. I have included an excerpt of how to do so for iCloud Calendar:
iCloud: Archiving or making copies of your iCloud data
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4910
iCloud.com Calendar
This method of backing up starts with publishing a calendar that you can then download to your computer. If your calendar is already on your computer, skip to the OS X or Windows instructions.
1. Go to iCloud Calendar at icloud.com/calendar and sign in using your iCloud Apple ID and password.
2. Publicly share a calendar.
3. Select and copy the URL (web address) from that shared calendar, and paste it to the address field in your browser; do not press Enter or Return yet.
4. Change "webcal" to "http", and then press Enter.
5. An ICS file will download to your default downloads location. The calendar can be added to a calendar client like iCal on Mac or Outlook on a Windows PC.
6. Once the download completes, unpublish the shared calendar.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
hey i had my iphone synced to my laptop then i formated the laptop , now i cant sync it back . please helppp
What do you mean you can't sync it back?
Media syncs one way. Computer>Phone, with the exception of purchased items.
File>Transfer purchases in iTunes. You're going to have to set it up as a new device then sync everything back from your iTunes library. You did backup your laptop before you formatted it, right? -
I had 146 pictures on my iPhone 4S PhotoStream but it wasn't syncing to my PC properly so I "reset" my iCloud trying to get things to work.
So now the NEW picures I take sync to my PC just fine ... is there any way at all to get the 146 pics to sync to the cloud now? Or any way of getting them to my PC short of emailing them all? HELP!
ADVthanksANCE
=GneenThanks so much Winston - I didn't even realize that the cord I use to recharge with an outlet is actual a USB connection that disconnects from the outlet plug! Worked like a charm ... PC detected the new device, loaded up the proper drivers, and I was able to move pictures over from the now available folder from the "My Computer" icon or into Picasa or whatever. A bit annoying that the pictures weren'tarranged in the same folders as on my iPhone, but all-in-all a most excellent suggestion - if I could figure outhow to give you a "green checkmark" indicating you solved my problem I would do so, but for now please settle formy thanks!

Bought a new 4s and need to transfer photos from iCloud to new device. iCloud is giving me an old @me address. I do not have the email or pw for the iCloud account. How do I retrieve this information? Thanks.
If you need to change the iCloud ID on your new phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

my airport is not connecting to the internet. I have a cable modem. and i'm on the internet now connected directly to the modem. what can i do?
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results. -
I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this. I only have the one Apple ID and the phone is brand new, purchased directly from Apple.
When I check on the phone itself (iCloud and App Store settings) the Apple ID is correct. I'm not sure where else to check.
Whilst setting up the phone, it prompted me to register, which I did. Then when connecting to my laptop through iTunes it prompted me again so I registered again. I even got a confirmation email to the email address associated with my Apple ID that the registration was successful.
How can I add my iPhone 5s to the list of devices on the correct Apple ID?
Thanks in advance for any advice.Found the answer to my question after posting (in related discussions)

I was logged in with a temporary profile on my pc, after restarting everything seemed to be fine. But my iTunes music is all in the cloud now, and my playlists are gone. What do I do?
My iTunes media folder shows ALL of my music still there (including all from imported CD's), but on my iTunes, it says most of it is in the cloud? As well as my playlists that I have had for YEARS, are all gone. I just recently got a new laptop and had my iTunes transferred over, when I re-downloaded iTunes onto it, everything popped up perfectly from this same file. Now after this "Temporary Profile" mishap, nothing is working properly with iTunes.
Help! Please.Do this. If all the synced media like apps and music are alread in the the iTnunes library just backup the iPod and restore from that backup

When I place an Aperture photo on the cloud to share with friends, the idenfifcation information I have entered for the photo does not transfer to the cloud and thus my friends get only the photo. Is there a setting I am missing that would allow the text to go along with the photograph?
The photo stream will transfer the EXIF information set by the camera and the filname/version name. Try to get any information you want to transfer into the filename by batch changing the filename with "write to master" enabled. Aloso, you can set a comment, when sharing the image to the Photo Stream.

Plugging in iphone and itunes is telling me to download the 64-bit version.
when i plug my iphone into my computer, itunes keeps telling me to go download the 64-bit version. so i uninstalled itunes and went and downloaded the 64-bit version. i went back into itunes, and it told me the same thing. i'm using a windows 7.
I have a similar problem. When I plug in my iphone it told me to uninstall and download the 64-bit version. When I did that, the 64-bit version wouldn't open because my "library was created with a newer version of iTunes". It appears I can either have my library OR I can sync with my iPhone, but not both. I haven't been able to find answers for this problem.
It's a brand new PC laptop, running Windows 7. Any other specs I should mention?
I would appreciate any suggestions anyone can offer me. -
I have the Iphone 4s. If I try to download the iOS 7, will this affect any of the apps I already have. (I have an app with a lot of my baby's information that I don't want to lose). Or is iOS 8 better to download?
anypats wrote:
My biggest suggestion would be to check and make sure that the app works with iOS 8. If their app is not compatible, then there is a possibility that the app will crash every time you open it or some other way that makes the app unusable and then you would be unable to access that data. As long as the app is compatible with iOS 8 then updating your OS shouldn't cause you to lose any of the information within the app. As others are suggested, make sure you have a backup but just note that once you update to iOS 8 you cannot revert back to an older version. Find out if your app has any way to export the information to another format that you can save and access via a computer before updating.
And what app have you seen that works in iOS 7 that doesn't work in iOS 8? -
I purchased an app when I had my iPhone 4s. I went to the app store to re download the app and I was charged for the app again after I downloaded the app.
IPhone and iPad have different formats. You would have to purchase the iPad version. This isn't true of all apps, some work on both iPad and iPod/iPhone (like most games).
