HT201418 After restoring from iCloud to new device - strange Apple ID popup on the phone

I have change my iPhone 6 to 6+. I have done backup of the old iPhone to iCloud. When I started restore process - iOS system gave you a question with Apple ID (is this your Apple ID?) as always with strange one. I guess system is always giving suggestion to the Apple ID account latest backup was done to the nearest server of iCLOUD. Of course I have deleted this stranger Apple ID suggestion for restore and I have applied my own APPLE ID.
Restore took some time and was successful.
ISSUE - many times iOS want to connect to iTunes - pop up window is appearing having again suggestion of the same STRANGE Apple ID. It;s annoying and I do not know how to get rid out from my iOS.
I put my normal Apple ID with credentials into iCloud and iTunes setting on iPhone but still strange one pops-up

You probably needed to update the iOS on the new phone. When it's done, set it up as a new iPhone, then disconnect it from your computer. Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings (provide the password if prompted), go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts. Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

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.

Where can I find un-recovered photos after restoring from Icloud

Where can I find un-recovered photos after restoring from Icloud?

They would only be stored in your backup. If they didn't restore properly all you can do is try restoring the backup again.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes, update first, Settings > General > Software Update.
Then 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.

HT201269 how do i restore from iCloud on new phone?

I have a new 4s that I got from the AT&T store.
They got me up and running by getting my contacts downloaded.
Now I've hooked up to iPhone to restore from iCloud.
Do I want to restore or do I want to back up?
I can't figure out how to get my music to migrate to my new phone.
I have backed up my old phone to the cloud.
I don't seem to be getting the automatic prompts all the articles talk about and I think it's because at the store they only did contacts.

If you backup with iTunes and you restored from the backup and the data are gone, then there is no where to retrieve them from unless you have another backup that contains those data.
Launch iTunes on the computer and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. You will see a window with all of your backups listed in it.
If you see a recent backup that you are certain contains the data that you need, recover deleted data from iPhone backup.
If your note is gone from iCloud.com there is only a few ways to possibly recover it.
The first things I would check is a iCloud Backup, a iTunes Backup, or a 3rd party email that may have contained the note. To restore from a iCloud or iTunes backup follow this link. This article explains how to restore a device from either back up.
Note if you have backed up since the note went missing, you will not have the note on the backup. Make sure you do not back up if trying to restore from a back up as this will back up the content without the note.
To get to the "Set up assistant" on an iOS device, you must go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. Once the phone restarts, you will be at the "Set up Assistant"

Why does my ipod continue to load after restoreing from icloud

Can I restore from backup to new device without SIM

I have a 4s and should be receiving my new iPhone 6 tomorrow. I plan to hand down my 4s to my son who currently has a 3gs.
Can I backup my 4s, then setup my new iPhone 6 by using that 4s backup BEFORE I call in to AT&T and have them transfer my line over to the new phone?
Also, if after I do that, I reset my 4s (to factory settings), then can I set it up with iTunes to restore from my son's 3gs backup, then call AT&T to migrate his number over to the 4s?
I know this sounds confusing, it does to me. Basically what I'm asking is do I need to first put in the new SIM and tell AT&T, THEN restore from the backup, or can I do all that first, then set it up with AT&T.
Thanks!

You are working with 3 different SIM card sizes. All three take a different size SIM. Once you stop service on your 4S, that SIM is disabled. You would need a new SIM for the 4S. While you could backup and the 3GS and restore that to the 4S, and you could activate it with the disabled SIM, you couldn't transfer his service to that SIM, he would need a new one from AT&T. You can backup the 4s and restore the 6 to that one. The time you call is not important, except that you may not be able to complete the activation of the new device after restoring the backup until you call and activate the SIM that came in the iPhone 6. Check with AT&T and they can help. If you have a corporate store in your area, you will be able to get all of that done in-house.

HT201269 pictures wont download from icloud to new device

Majority of pictures from Camera Roll are not downloading to new device from icloud backup.

Are these photos backed up on your PC? (they should be - regularly)
If not, try restoring from your backup again. You'd have to erase all content and settings and start over.

How to sync apps with iTunes after restore from iCloud?

I just recently restored my iPod touch to 5.0.1. and I used my iCloud backup. While it worked for the most part, when it came to downloading the apps, I found it cumbersome. I would prefer that I just plug in my iPod to iTunes and let the apps install from the computer. It seemed to sync up, but all the apps on my device remained inactive and uninstalled. More specifically, they were still 'Waiting...'. Weirdly enough some of the apps even looked like they were downloaded partially but despite numerous attempts, they simply refused to install. I have restored my iPod again in frustration and before I restore yet again, I'd like to ask if there is a solution where I can restore my iPod from iCloud, keep the apps arranged but have them installed over iTunes the traditional way?

They both are.
Another question, right now I have 3 out of 5 computers authorized to use with my iTunes account. But what happens If they all break and I end up getting a 6th computer?

Why does my purchased songs not play after restoring from iCloud?

I recently had to exchange my iPhone 4 after having a problem with my lock button. When I restored my purchased items from iCloud none of my purchased songs or movies would work. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem without having to redownload each item?

Does the music appear to be on the iPhone, but won't play?
My iPhone did this after an iCloud backup. If the music is shown but won't play then:
On the iPhone go to settings> general > usage> then delete all of the music. After you've done this sync your iPhone to your iTunes and they should all go back onto the phone and work. ( make sure that all the music is in your iTunes library first)

I am attempting to restore from icloud on new 5c from old 5c and has taken 4 days locked, plugged in, and connected to secure good internet, but still not finished. What can I do?

I have already cleared the content and settings from the phone twice and tried to start completely from scratch.
I also already tried backing up the phone onto my computer then restoring then using the computer back up via USB connection.
In addition, my phone displays as almost full (its an 8G) yet I have 4 songs (8.2MB), no books, 48 apps (1.98GB) - which seems like a lot of space used for apps, 96 photos (84.6MB), Documents&Data (917MB) and that's it! It just has a huge section that displays as "other" (1.62 GB) then 780.2 free.
I'm OBVIOUSLY not a tech person, but it seems like having some apps and 4 songs and 90 photos shouldn't mean your phone is so full I had to erase all the content just to do the software update for it to allow me to back it up! What is the issue there? Those numbers don't seem like they add up to anything near 8GB, but again I'm sure I'm missing something.
Any help is appreciated. My other phone was exactly the same one and I had no such problems so perhaps this one is just faulty?

Billtracker not working after restore from iCloud

i recently performed a restore from the icloud. Everything worked well except the app BillTracker. when i start it, it tells me its downloading from the icloud and never completes the download. I've even tried deleting the app and restarting it specifying i have data in the icloud. I've verified and i do see the data from the app. I've used the app for several years and would hate to loose the history i've built. Any suggestions?

I'm so happy to hear you are now up and running. Thank you for the feedback.
In my case it wasn't a Lion thing. I had two external Snow Leopard clones and one Lion clone. None would accept my password. My other Mini with identical hardware happily booted the other swapped external Lion and Snow Leopard clones.
To add to the mystery the Mini that threw the password hissy fit booted with no complaining from two external Snow Leopard clones a few months earlier when a dead internal hard drive was replaced.
I don't think the issue is common or we would see many more posts from people having correct passwords rejected when restoring from their Time Machine backups or booting from clones. I reported the password issue I had to AppleCare but I couldn't offer any insight as to what triggered the problem.

HT203783 Having trouble setting up the iCloud keychain access on new devices because I can't access the phone number that is associated with my account (for 2 factor verification)

I also don't know the answers to my security questions. I spoke with iCloud support on the phone for about an hour, but we got locked out of my account and they eventually encouraged me to check if I could log into old devices (I now know I can't-they've either been sold or are not using iCloud keychain).
Anybody think they can help? I don't want to have to set up a new iCloud account.

Welcome to the Apple community Yao.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
