HT4436 aid it was 2/4. How do I restore my new iphone to the backup of 2/14?

I purchased a new iphone 5s and backed up my old iphone to the icloud 2/14. When I started the new phone it restored to a backup from 2/4--how do I restore my new iphone to the backup from the icloud today 2/14?

Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage to confirm that the backup of your old phone is listed. If so, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts, choosing the backup of your old phone to restore to. Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

How do I restore my new iphone using the icloud data stored from another phone?

Yesterday my iPhone stopped working so I took it to the Apple store who replaced it with another one. I used iCloud when setting up this new one but this only restored my numbers to the new phone. I plugged the phone into my computer when I got home and again tried to restore my phone to the setup from yesterday. This changed the phone to the setup from over a year ago. I know my old phone backed up more recently than this because under iCloud 'Manage Storage' it shows that my old phone backed up yesterday. Any ideas how I can access this?

On your replacement phone: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings...you should now be able to use the backup from your old phone.

How do i restore my new iphone device to my old settings after already selecting set up as new device?

I've gotten a new iPhone 5 which is replacing my old iPhone 5 and I wanted to restore my settings from my old iPhone to the new one. However during the set up of the new iPhone I lost connection from the internet, therefore I chosed to set up my iPhone as a new iPhone. I have now gone onto iTunes to see if it'll let me restore my old iPhone settings and it was providing me with other devices but my old iPhone. How can I restore my old settings or will I have to start over as a new device?

How can i update my new iphone with the data from my old iphone?

I recently bought an iphone 3GS after my iphone 4 was stolen but when i try to sync the new phone it says the software is out of date. (when i was telling the guy at the apple store about my phone being stolen he said when you get a new phone just sync it to retrieve all the information stored on there. Is there any way i can retrieve the stuff from my old phone? I would like my messages, notes and apps from my old phone on my new one.

Just to make sure - You're saying you had backed up your iPhone 4. When you plug in the 3GS, and try to "restore" the data from the iPhone 4 backup onto the 3GS, you get that error? Check to see if the iOS version is up-to-date, and hopefully it isn't. It might also be because your iPhone 4 wasn't, and is causing some sort of problem.
Good luck!

How can I restore my new phone to my backup?

It wouldnt let me restore from my old back up to a new phone, so it made me register my phone as new, now i cant figure out how to restore from my old one so i get all my contacts back.

Hello mel1089,
Welcome to the Discussions Boards.
There are a couple of factors that may be contributing in this case. You list 10.4.5 for your OS version. The minimum system requirements for iTunes are currently 10.4.9 or higher.
See the requirements here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
I would suggest updating your OS X and iTunes by running Software Update at least twice to get any availble updates.
Information on the restore/backup process can be found in this article:

My computer was stolen. How do i transfer music from iPhone to iTunes?,

You can recover any purchased songs that are on iPhones using the procedure here.
If this is not available, you can ask Apple to allow you to download your music again. Note that, first, they DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. Purchase of music from the iTunes store entitles you to one download of that item. Second, note that if Apple does allow you to download a second time, they have to pay royalties on each download, whether you pay for it or not. Last, if they allow it, please back up your purchases.
To request a redownload, contact iTunes support from the menus in iTunes or use this page.
Best of luck.

My laptop was stolen. How do I sync my old iphone to a new computer without losing my purchases (music & apps)?

One of the reasons to include your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data that is kept separate from your laptop - not carried in the same case, etc.
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iDevice, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
If you are in the US, you can do this now as well.

How to resolve error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone. Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again."

I inadvertently deleted my iPhone backup on my MacBook Pro. I restored iPhone to factory settings and then synced remotely with iCloud. However the error message repeatedly states:
iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone. Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again.
Any ideas as to how this can be resolved please. Thank you very much.

My wife's iPhone 5 would not backup, after upgrading to iOS 8.     The "genius" at the Apple store succeeded in DELETING, the only recent backup of her phone so
recovery became more critical.
I followed all the procedures for troubleshooting it, but still it would try to backup and then stop due to an error. We particularly wanted to preserve some game data/history/progress that she'd been working on for years.      This game (Dream Fish) would no longer open after the iOS 8 upgrade ... and the phone would not successfully backup, and so we had no confidence that it would restore from an older backup either.       I googled for solution and found Phoneview and iFunBox.      These apps allow you to see & access data files in the iPhone.      Phoneview was too fragile and crashed when copying a file any size.
I found "iFunBox".     iFunBox was excellent.      I used iFunBox to recover her game data.    It allows you to make a copy of data files that reside on the iPhone... and store them as a manual backup on the Mac.
And in the process I found 2 games that caused iFunBox to crash.      The 2 games in question were not important enough to try to keep, so I deleted them from the iPhone.
So then, I had a manual backup of the important iPhone data, and had eliminated two game files that apparently had a conflict with iOS 8.
My next Backup attempt was successful.        The iPhone with iOS 8 would now backup to both the Mac and to the Cloud.
Next I deleted Dream Fish from the iPhone and downloaded a fresh version from the Cloud.    The new Dream Fish with no history opened in iOS 8.
Then I used iFunBox to copy my wife's Dream Fish data history from the Mac back into the new game.
Once the transfer was complete, Dream Fish would now OPEN and all of her progress was there and working like normal.
Hope this helps.

HT1766 Error message: "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone. Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again." But how do I delete the backup?

Error message when attempting to backup up iPhone4S to Mac says "iTunes could not back up the iphone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone. Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again." But how do I delete the backup? Can't find answer to that anywhere.

We had this problem after upgrading to iOS 8.       The iPhone 5 would not backup either to the cloud or to the computer.   Backup always ended with an error message.
Long story short, with the help of iFunBox ( which I used to make manual backups of some important iPhone data files ), I discovered two games that
would crash iFunBox.      They were not important games for us, so I didn't try to isolate the offending data files.     And I deleted the two games from the iPhone.
Apparently these two games conflicted with iOS 8 just as they did with iFunBox.      The next backup without those games was then successful.
I backed up to both the Mac and the cloud.
Hope this helps.

My macbook pro crashed and the hard drive was replaced. How do I restore my backup pre- 9.6 iphoto library to the 9.6.1 iphoto library? They look completely different.

My macbook pro crashed and the hard drive was replaced. How do I restore my backup pre- 9.6 iphoto library to the 9.6.1 iphoto library? They look completely different. When I look at my backed-up iphoto library folder I see lots of files and folders: ALbumData.xml, Attachments folder, etc. The 9.6.1 iphoto library doesn't appear to be a folder at all. Help!

iPhoto 6 and earlier libraries were regular folders with the kind of files your reporting. With the advent of iPhoto 7 the library folder was changed to a package similar to the application packages but have essentially the same files and folders inside. There's no reason to have access to the inside of the iPhoto Library so Apple changed them to packages.
Do you have a backup copy of the iPhoto Library from before the HD crash. If so restore it to the Pictures folder in your Home folder. If you previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 or earlier download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on your library before trying to open it with iPhoto 9.6.1.
