HT201342 How do I back up my phone to icloud so it may downloadto my new phone?

How doback up my old iphone4 to my icloud account so it will downloadto my new iphone5c?

Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, turn iCloud Backup on, then either tap Back Up Now to back up right away, or connect it to wifi and your chager, lock the screen and leave it to back up automatically.
BTW, if you're in a hurry it's much faster to back up to your computer using iTunes rather than to iCoud. If you aren't currently backing up to iCloud, just sync with iTunes to create a backup. (If you are backing up to iCloud, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and clidk Back Up Now. Then go to File>Devices Transfer Purchases.) Then, when setting up the new phone, when given the option choose Restore to iTunes Backup and restore that backup you just made to your new phone.

HT204053 how can i back up my photos beside icloud?

How can i back up my photos beside icloud?

If you go in your phone to Settings, Icloud, photo stream, and turn the selection on, your phone will send your photos to your desktop computer. You have to install and turn on the ICloud panel on your home computer, and also toggle on, photo stream, it will create a folder in My Pictures called My Photo Stream. Just copy and save this folder somewhere else on your computer, or your external hard drive, then continue to copy and paste your new photos into this folder from time to time. Then you will have backups in two places..

How do I back up the calendar and contacts from my iPhone5 to my new macbook pro(10.8.3)? I have backed up the phone, but it does not transfer the calendar or the contacts. If I check them in the sync area and then back up the phone again will they transfer or be erased? I am a bit gun shy since my previous macbook pro committed suicide and I lost a ton of info there.

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer.

I'm getting the iPhone5S and I know you can use the same Apple ID but I have to delete my details off my current phone, how can I keep my account so I can use it again on my new phone?

When I sold my iPod I had to delete my apple account but I want to use this apple account on my soon to be new phone the iphone5S, I know you can use the same address but if I delete the account on my phone will I still be able to get it back on my new phone? And what about purchases and iBookstore? If I've purchased items will I be able to get them on my new device?

Yes, you only have to make an icloud backup on your old phone and restore from that backup on your new phone. If everything goes well, you can safely restore your old phone.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates available.
Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

Every time I plug my phone in, itunes asks if I want to restore it with a past back up or if I want to reset it as a new phone but all I want to do is back up my phone so I can download ios 8.

How do I cancel a subscription to an app that is not on my new phone?

How do I cancel a subscription to an app that is not on my new phone? Will I get charge twice if I download the app again?

You can log in to MyVerizon with your phone number (register it if you haven't already) and look at what is there under the "My Media" tab. You should be able to transfer any apps to your new phone.
If in doubt, call customer service (800-922-0204 or *611 from your device) and explain - they can either cancel it for you or help you get it running on your new phone.

Restore from the backup!
You password: You have set it! It might be your passcode or you mioght have set it accidentally, so test all of the passwords you normally use. If you cannot get the password you backup is lost, but you can still sync your iTunes content.

How to setup "Back to My Mac" on iCloud.

Does anyone know how to setup Back to My Mac on iCloud? I never had MobileMe, and all the instructions I find online are for MobileMe. It seems like a really cool concept, though.
The computers I have are a Mac Pro and a Macbook Pro. Both running the latest update of Lion.

I've done that. It goes through as if there are no problems, but I still can't use it. Also, when I try to login using my apple ID, it doesn't work. I've gone to the Airport Utility and tried setting up my apple ID with the mobile me tab, but it asks for my me.com username and password. I never had a password for it, because I setup using cloud. I put in my apple ID password anyway, but there is still no luck. It tells me my username or password is incorrect.

How do I back up my movies to iCloud from my iPad?

How do I back up my movies to iCloud from my iPad?

If you mean movies you took on your iPad, which are in the camera roll, they are included in your iPad backup. Backing up your iPad will back them up (but don't delete them after backing up and back up again or you will overwrite the backup that includes them with one that doesn't, and they will be lost). To permanently save your camera roll photos and videos, import them to your computer as expalined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
If you mean movies purchased from the iTunes store, they are already in iCloud and can be redownloaded again later as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

How do I back my flash drive on iCloud?

How do I back my flash drive on iCloud?

You can only back up iOS devices on iCloud.

Phone won't dial out. Old phone received missed calls yesterday instead of my new phone.

Current phone suddenly won't dial out. Yesterday my old phone (which I use for WiFi only and which has not been activated for about 1 year) started receiving calls instead of my current phone. I was not around to answer them, but they only registered as missed calls on my old phone.
Today I tried making a call and my current phone won't dial out--trying to dial any number just gives me silence and then it disconnects after 30 seconds or so. I tried dialing out on the old phone, but it gives me a roaming message and wants me to either buy a calling PIN or call collect to dial out. On my current phone I can still use data/internet fine and I think texting still works (tested by texting my own number and I received the text).
I've tried powering off the old phone for a while and then restarting the new phone, but it didn't help... I can't call verizon since I can't dial out and its saturday night so it looks like their chat is offline..
How can I fix this? Help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately *611 does not work -- like all numbers I try to dial, it goes to the "dialing" screen then does nothing for about 30 seconds, then it disconnects.
*228 Brings up a message box that says "a verizon wireless sim card has activated your service and updated your phone's roaming capabilities. Your phone number is [my number]" The problem is not fixed however.
I should also clarify that I have been using my old phone for wifi/mp3 playing just fine for the past 1 year without experiencing this problem ever before. My current/newer phone has been working fine right next to it all that time. I did just pull my old SIM card out of my old phone just now in case that might help (should have done that a long time ago). I also removed the battery. That was several hours ago, still having the problem after rebooting the new phone and testing many times.
Using another person's phone I have now verified that I can't make or receive any calls on my new phone, but I can send and receive text messages as well as use mobile data/internet. The newer phone is an LG G2 and the old phone is a Galaxy Nexus if that matters.
Thanks for the help so far
