Upgraded from Iphone 4 to 4s. old phone backed up to iCloud. How do I restore that data to my new iphone?

I just upgraded from the iPhone 4 to 4s. I had backed up the old phone backed up to iCloud. How do I restore that data to my new iphone? Even though I had photostream on, it never synched. I installed iCloud for the pc and can see the backup up in the cloud. I just want to get all the data to the new phone.

When you go through the new phone setup, it should ask if you want to setup as new or restore from iCloud. If you have already setup as new, you will have to reset the 4S to factory settings, and go through setup again.

How can I restore from iCloud on my new phone if I didn't do it on the intial setup process?

You can't merge the backups, you'll have to delete the backup of your old phone. If it says it's currently in use when you try, that will normally clear up on its own but may take 3-5 days to do so. Give it a few days and try deleting the old backup again.
In the meantime, you can create a manual backup of your new phone on your computer by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, clicking on the name of your phone in iTuens, going to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and clicking Back Up Now. Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Then you'll be safe until you can start backup up to iCloud again.

How do I change my ICloud ID on my IPhone

Two knowledge base articles that may help explain this are:

If you have set your iCloud ID to be username at me.com or at mac.com then you cannot change the ID.

HT204053 how can i set up icloud on my lost iphone?

my iphone 4 was stolen and i have an icloud account but icloud account is not set up on my phone ? any ways to still track it?

No, you needed to set up that iCloud accoun on the phone before it went missing.
There is no way to remotely track it now.
Also, without the iCloud account, that iPhone is not protected by Activation Lock, so whomever has it now can just restore it as new in iTunes and use it as their own.

HT201269 I restored from iCloud after purchasing new iphone 5s today. However none of 5s phone features nor apps are showing nor are they seen in settings. Plus my App Store is currently using 894mB of data. Can anyone help????

I had read to "restore" not the option to set up new device. Oh also my "messages" data is very high even after I deleted nearly all of them

If you simply would have posted here first, there are plenty of people who would have informed you of the current policy to have a data plan active on an account during the entire contract if purchasing a discounted smartphone.
Unfortunately, there are just as many on here who would claim the people informing you about this policy of being Verizon plants spreading disinformation and trying to make people afraid to upgrade via this route.
Yes this is a new policy, one which has been pointed out multiple times in these forums. Good luck, but I doubt you will have an outcome over this which will make you happy.
Verizon is closing as many loopholes to keep unlimited data as they can.

How can I restore my icloud e-mail address?

How can I restore my iCloud e-mail address?

You can't change and iCloud email account address once created. You can either create a new iCloud account, or add an @icloud.com email alias address to the existing account, which will receive email in your existing iCloud inbox (more details here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a.
If you would rather create a new account and keep your data, start by saving any photo stream photos on your phone that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. When you turn Mail on you will be asked to create your new iCloud email address. Type carefully as it cannot be changed later.

How can i Restore Photo's from my previous Iphone 4s icloud back up!!!

Hello guys i am new to apple discussion but here goes...
last month i had to get my iphone 4s replaced but before i did i made a back up on icloud, when i go on icloud on my new iphone, then go to manage storage it says i have 2 back ups, 1 from this iphone & 1 for my first iphone the thing is i would like my photos from my 1st iphone 4s backup either on my computer or my phone any ideas... nothing else just the things from photo roll i can quite clearly see the back up is there just carnt access it :s
All in all i really would like my photos from my previous icloud back up restored some how,
please write back people
Thankyou Bradleigh

You can't just restore the photos, you would have to restore the entire backup, then import the photos to your computer, then restore to your current backup to get your current data back. This will be a somewhat lenghty process.
If you want to do this, first back up your phone to iCloud as it is now (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Back Up Now). When done, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. Next go through the setup screens on your phone and when given the option choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below), choosing your old backup to restore from.
After restoring, import the photos to your computer as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Then Erase All Content and Settings again, go back through the setup screens again choosing Restore from iCloud Backup, and this time choose your current backup to restore from. This will return the phone to its current state. Finally, if you want the photos you recovered back on your phone, put them in a folder on your computer, then select the folder to sync to your phone on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync your phone.

How do i restore my iCloud settings after my daughter has accidentally deleted them while setting up a new phone to the iCloud account

how do i restore my iCloud settings after my daughter has accidentally deleted them while setting up a new phone to the account?

Hello Emily,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you need to sign out of your previous Apple ID on your device, but do not know the password, then you will need to reset the password on that account. Since you do not have access to the email with that Apple ID, you will either have to reset the password using the security questions or contact Apple ID account security.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security - Apple Support
Take care,
Alex H.

acart You select your language and complete the initial set up for the iphone, then, you will see the 'restore from icloud backup'. Next, you will see a screen that displays your previous backups, select the correct one and this should complete the steps.

HT204053 I have set up a new Icloud ID using a new email address on my I mac however my Iphone Icloud ID is still using an old email address that is no longer in use. How do I change my ICloud ID on my Iphone to that on my IMac computer. I only want 1

How do I change my Icloud ID on my Iphone to match my ICloud ID on my IMac computer? My phone has an old email address that is no longer in use. I have a new email address that I have used as my ICloud ID ( Apple ID ) on my IMac. I want to be able to send photos from my Imac to my Icloud account and see view them with my Iphone. Can you help me ?? Thanks

To change the iCloud ID 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.
When you do this, you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this happens, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, 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 iPhone 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.

HT204053 I created a different Apple ID for Icloud on my new IPhone and having problems with getting Itunes,etc. How do I change my Icloud Apple ID to be the same ID and password?

I created a different Apple ID for my Icloud on my new IPhone (said a free email was available or something similar) rather than the other choice offered of using my same existing Apple ID. Now I keep having issues accessing my account and my password isn't working to access Icloud to download Itunes. Can I undo this new account I created and just use my one existing Apple ID? This is my first IPhone and confused with this part of the setup! Thanks.

If you know the answers to your security questions, you should be able to change your password without using email authentication (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36). If you don't, you may be out of luck.
