HT203097 if your ip[hone was backed up to itunes in the cloud do you have to use the same computer to transfer the information to a new iphone

my iphone 5 stopped working and could not be charged  Apple has rep[lasced it with a new iphone 5 and i have to use a different computer to access my backup in itunes .  Is that a problem?
thanks

The title of your post says "iTunes in the cloud" -- there are actually 2 different types of backup. One is to iCloud and one iTunes. If you did the backup via iTunes then the backup data is stored on that computer and you will need that computer to do the restore. If the backup was done to iCloud you don't need a computer. Following is more information: Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

  • My iphone was hit by a car, however the back is totally intact as well as the sim card. Is there a way for me to back up my phone to my computer/icloud, so when I get my new iPhone, I can sync all of my old data to it?

    Need help with my broken iPhone4s. It was hit by a car, and I need to know how to back up my data to my computer/iCloud so when I get my new iPhone I can sync it to there and still have all my old data, such as contacts, photos, apps, etc.

    If you had iCloud backup turned on, and it made a backup - yes.  If you didn't have iCloud backup turned on - but were using iCloud for Contacts, calendars, etc.  You will get the contacts and calendars, etc back.
    Purchases made with your appleID can be redownloaded as long as they are still available in the iTunes store.
    If you connected your phone to a computer with iTunes, there may be a backup on there as well.

  • TS4036 I have moved from one company to another and they both use iphones I backed my phone up before it was shut down I tried to retrieve contacts from my PC it did not work will it work when I get my new iphone?

    I updated my iPhone onto my friend's MacBook
    Why would you do that, and not on your own computer?  See the hassle it caused you?
    can he just email me the folder
    Backup files are too big to email.  Use FTP, DropBox, etc...
    how do I then put all that data back into my current phone from the new computer?

  • HT5035 Can you put the balance that you have redeemed off of a card onto your iTunes account back onto the same/new card ?

    Can you put the balance that you have redeemed off of a card onto your iTunes account back onto the same/new card ? I do not wish to use this balance and have not deducted from the original balance and wish to put back on to the card.

    Your entire second paragraph is so confusing I am going to ignore it.
    But I may be able to answer your first and third paragraphs, which seem to address the same question.
    I wonder where your iPhone states it was backed up yesterday.  I am going to assume that you see this under Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    If that is true, then the backup from yesterday is in iCloud.  The one and only way to restore an iCloud backup is to do this on your iPhone:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
    That will cause your iPhone to begin a setup process.  As part of that process, assuming you enter the same Apple ID you used when you created the iCloud backup, you will be offered the opportunity to restore from it.

  • I recently got a new iPad from Apple, everything was stored to the cloud now I have set up new iPad i have nothing. Apps can b replaced pics cannot. Can anyone help me please?

    I recently got a new iPad from Apple, everything was stored to the cloud now I have set up new iPad i have nothing. Apps can b replaced pics cannot. Can anyone help me please?

    Sorry to read about this. A relative had a similar experience. Just a few things she was told to do. Hopefully one will get your content back. Make sure you are logged in to the same Apple Account the last iPad was. You should have a recent backup that can be downloaded to have your new iPad look like the one you replaced. When I changed from one iPad to another I used my last backup and all my apps and photos reloaded with no issues. This was done over wifi.
    Another way is connecting your iPad to a computer that is logged into your iTunes account. It will show what backups you have available to download To your iPad. Again hopefully a recent backup was made of your iPad with all your most recent content.
    In my cloud settings I made sure any photos I took were uploaded to the cloud to be downloaded automatically to my iPhone and visa versa.
    If you had your photos setup to be uploaded to the cloud they should still be there. You just need to be logged into your Apple ID and your new iPad and I see no reason you cannot access them. Hopefully it is a simple fix.
    good luck.  Jeff

    Hi Sara,
    First of all thank you very much for your prompt responses. Here are my comments to each of your suggestions below, and just to let you know I am using a Farm Admin account.  I
    was able to do this way after we upgraded from SP 2007 to SP 2010 as well.   I would like to mention I'm not a SP expert, just been given the responsibility due to another person handling it just left, so apologize with some of
    my novice questions below?
    1. When I change the Operators to "Contains" or "Not Contains" get generates this error below.
         Error generating in red towards top of the audience page..."One or more values typed on this page are not valid.  Check the text for the indicated fields."
         Error occurred where you enter your "Value"..."Could not resolve the user identity. Please re-enter the account name."
    2. We have a 3-server-tier topology (SPWeb, SPDB, and SPFarm).  Does the updates only apply to where the Central Admin is installed, which is the "SPFarm"?  I checked all
    3 servers, and NONE of the updates (KB2899494, KB2889845, and KB2883055) you'd mentioned are installed.
    3. I'm new to IISRET, I need to be extra cautious of what I run in production, is this safe to run with no problem?  What does it do?  And How do I run it?
    4. I'm also new to viewing the ULS log.  I'd just downloaded a viewer for it.  I'm assuming the only logs I need to be concern with viewing are within the SPAdmin (where Central
    Admin is installed)?  There's so many of them, what should I be looking for exactly?

  • I copied this from your 5.0 download information: "All of the App Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as App Tabs when you start Firefox again." When I opened my computer today all my apptabs from yesterday had disappeared. Why?

    Your download page for 5.0 stated: All of the App Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as App Tabs when you start Firefox again.
    I liked the convenience of using App Tabs and was disappointed to find that the ones I had set up yesterday were gone today. Am I doing something wrong?

    Works fine for me, I can simulate your problem by improperly closing Firefox.
    The correct way would be to close the windows you don't want and then to exit Firefox through the File ("'''Alt+F'''") menu then use '''Exit''' or '''Qui'''t depending on your system.
    But '''I can simulate your problem''' by closing the good window with "X" in the upper right-corner first (the one with the app-tabs) and then close the other window by any means.
    You restart Firefox and open a window, since you closed without app-tabs there are none so you just see a window with your home page.
    Firefox has some things added to Firefox 4 and therefore in Firefox 5.
    # "'''Alt+S'''" (Hi'''s'''tory menu)
    # "'''Restore Previous Session'''" (that's the window without the app-tabs, but you have to this first)
    # "'''Restore Recently Closed Windows'''" -- can choose which window to reopen based on name and the mouse-over tells how many tabs. or you just use "'''Restore All Windows'''" without the guessing.
    ''I know you are on a Mac, and this affects Windows user more than anybody else, but it does affect other systems besides Windows, occasionally, perhaps more often now with the plugins container.''
    The following may not completely eliminate having to terminate Firefox through the Windows Control Panel but it will come very close.
    '''Plug-in and tasks started by Firefox may continue after attempting
    to close Firefox''' The "X" in the upper right-hand corner closes the
    Window (same as Ctrl+Shift+W) but even if it is the last Firefox window,
    it does not necessarily close Firefox .
    The only '''proper way to exit Firefox''' is to use '''Exit''' through the
    File menu, not the "X" in the upper right corner of last Firefox window.
    In the Firefox 4 and 5 that would be Alt+F then X
    * '''Firefox hangs''' | Troubleshooting | Firefox Support <br>http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20hangs#w_hang-at-exit
    Use the '''Windows Task Manger''' to remove all running firefox.exe in the "'''Processes'''" tab of the Windows Task Manager, then restart Firefox.
    If Firefox will still not start, remove the parent.lock file from the profile which is created each time Firefox is started to prevent other Firefox tasks from running, see<br>
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use#Remove_the_profile_lock_file
    '''Avoiding Problems with close/restart''' ''choose either extension''
    :Use to close and restart Firefox after enabling or disabling an extension, switching to a new theme, or modifying configuration files, then you don't have to worry about delay or have to look in the Task Manager to see if Firefox is closed yet.
    Both extensions use the same keyboard shortcut "'''Ctrl+Alt+R'''" or a file menu option.

  • I have an iPhone 3GS that I dropped in water. It still does everything but get service, can I back it up and transfer its data to a new iPhone 3GS? I heard something about how loading a backup from a water damaged phone could mess up the new one...

    I have an iPhone 3GS that I dropped in water for a moment. After drying it and everything, it still does everything but get service. Can I back it up and transfer its data to a new iPhone 3GS? I heard something about how loading a backup from a water damaged phone could mess up the new one... is this true? I would truly appreciate the help, please let me know, thanks!

    Sounds like your phone is in recovery mode.  In this case, all data on it is gone.  There's nothing to back up.

  • Two years ago before my computer was stolen I sent everything to my cloud I now have a new computer how do I access my cloud and everything I saved there?

    two years ago before my computer was stolen I sent everything to my cloud I now have a new computer how do I access my cloud and everything I saved there?

    I assume you mean you saved it to the MobileMe iDisk - you were a paid subscriber to this? MobileMe closed last August (after a year's worth of warning emails and online notices) and if you didn't retrieve your files from the iDisk they have been deleted and are not recoverable by any means. There is no equivalent facility in iCloud.

  • HT201250 I've just used an external drive to back up my Mac with Time Machine. I have Lion, but didn't click and check the "Encrypt Backup Disc". What should I do? Can I delete the external drive and start again, or can I encrypt later?

    I've just used an external drive to back up my Mac with Time Machine. I have Lion, but didn't click and check the "Encrypt Backup Disc". What should I do? Can I delete the external drive and start again, or can I encrypt later?

    I guess if stolen or lost it would protect my "stuff", and if I'm travelling would protect my privacy.
    You must understand the purpose and implications of encryption before deciding whether to use it.
    Encryption locks your data with a password. If you forget that password, the data is lost beyond any chance of recovery. Neither Apple nor anyone else will be able to help you recover that data if you don't know the password.
    By the same token, the password must be strong enough to provide the security you want. For example, if you're the potential target of industrial espionage by a government or large corporation, you need the strongest possible password. To create and manage such a password safely is a task in itself, not to be undertaken lightly.
    If you're only concerned about casual snooping by someone with no special skill, a weak, easily-remembered password is appropriate.
    But regardless of the strength of the password, if you lose it, the data is gone forever.
    Another point to remember is that if you encrypt your data on one storage device, you must also encrypt it on all other storage devices that would be accessible to the same attacker. Otherwise the data isn't protected. For example, if you keep your computer and your backup drive in the same room, and the internal drive of the computer is not encrypted, then there's no point in encrypting the backup drive.

  • I was told that it takes about 10 years to outdate a MAC desktop, which I think is the case, but I have ran out of storage.  What is the best option?

    I was told that it takes about 10 years to outdate a MAC desktop, which I think is the case, but I have ran out of storage.  What is the best option?

    There is no one best for everyong.
    For most though: a dedicated boot drive. $105 Samsung 840 SSD is best in that category
    WD Black in 1 to 4TB (1-4 drives) for up to 16TB of storage.
    Sonnet Tempo Pro PCIe SSD card to boot from and boost SSD speed, as well as free up your drive bays for the other drives.
    2-4 backup sets. One or two used for TimeMachine. Two or three clones of your system. Even clone your critical data.
    And then there is external storage of unlimited size, capacity and expansion.
    Upgrade your system drive every year or two and move the current drive to use as a backup set.

  • My 7-year-old iMac died. I don't plan to replace it. It is backed up to Crashplan. Is it possible to restore my iPhoto library to the cloud, i.e. iCloud or Dropbox, so that I can access the photos as needed from my iPad or iPhone?

    Probably not - but that certainly does not involve iPhoto for the Mac - you need to look at Crashplan support for you options 
    And iCloud is not a place to store photos so that is certainly not a possibility
    If you restore your masters folder out of the iPhoto library you will have all of your original photos to do with what you please
