HT4623 upgrade Iphone in Itunes

What is the best way to setup a new replacement Iphone 5 in Itunes? I upgraded from a Iphone 4 and that is what my itunes backup is of. Should I setup the Iphone 5 as a new device or restore from my current Iphone 4 backup?

That's up to you. You can setup as new, or restore from your previous phone's backup. Read here:

  • HT4623 upgrading iphone 3  os from to 4.3 or greater

    I have an iphone 3 with os 4.2.   I want whatsapp but I need O.S 4.3 or greater, how can I upgrade, is not the same as in my iphone 4s.

    You can't. 4.2.1 is the last firmware for iPhone 3G.
    Edit: Someone was faster than me...

  • HT4623 My iPhone and iTunes can't access the activation servers, so no phone

    I have an AT&T 32GB iPhone 5 and I performed the update using iTunes (didn't have enough free space on my phone) and now neither the phone nor iTunes can communicate with the activation server so my phone is not usable. What can I do?
    I've tried quitting and restarting iTunes, and reconnecting the USB cable for iPhone.

    Same problem here, except, after iOS 7 downloaded on my iphone 4, my phone mysteriously reset itself so i've currently restoring my iphone after many attempts and still it's taken about an hour to do so and it's not even done yet

  • Can't seem to sync my songs and apps since i upgraded iphone and itunes

    I just did the update so ios5 and the updated itunes. it wiped my phone and restored it. but it didnt put on my apps and my songs. i have all my pictures and contacts on it. but when i try to sync it just says preparing then flashes words faster than i can read them and its not updated...help!

    Are you trying to drag songs onto playlists into your library or playlists that are already stored on your iPod?  What happens when you try to add them?  Are sure you aren't trying to add songs to Smart Playlists?

  • HT4623 on upgrading iPhone 4 to ios 6 using itunes it returned an unknown error then froze completely.  It has the iTunes and USB connector on the screen.  Reset is not working, I get the same frozen screen.

    On upgrading iPhone 4 to ios 6 using iTunes, it returned an unknown error then froze completely with the iTunes icon and USB connector on the screen.  Reset didn't work.  iTunes doesn't recognize the devise anymore.

    if your computer is not recognizing it, try using a different USB port or different usb cable. if that doesnt work you will need to uninstall and reinstall itunes.

  • TS1363 I was upgrading iPhone OS from 5.1 to 5.1.1 on Win 7 using iTunes 10.6.1.7.  The iPhone hung.  It is no longer visible by iTunes on Win 7

    While upgrading iPhone OS from 5.1 to 5.1.1 on Win 7 using iTunes 10.6.1.7, the iPhone hung.  I could not get iTunes to find it and Win 7 does not see it.
    When I connect the iPhone to the USB, Win 7 issues the welcome sound, but that is it.  The same happens when I disconnect iPhone.
    The Devise Manager has the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver correct without any problem.  I updated this driver called usbaapl64.
    The iPhone is still hung.
    I restarted the iPod service
    I restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service
    I tried to empty and delete the temp directory in C:\users\myname\AppData\Local\ but could not
    The iTunes I am using is the latest version
    I updated the Apple Mobile Device Driver as stated above correctly
    The iPhone is still hung and is not recognized by Win 7 or iTunes, so I cannot restore the OS to the previous working version
    What else can I do to restore the previous working OS on my iPhone 4

    I was connecting the iPhone 4 to a USB 3.0 port.  I was told by Apple Express Support (at US$29.99) not to use USB 3.0 and to use USB 2.1 instead.
    If you are connecting your iPhone to the computer using a USB 3.0 port, disconnect it immediately.  iPhones will lock up if you try to update while  using a connection through a USB 3.0 port.
    Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
    Go to Device Manager and find the connected USB port.  Click the mouse right button and update the driver
    Shut the iPhone by pressing the sleep button and the home button concurrently for some time
    Move the USB cable to a USB 2.1 port or older without the iPhone.  
    Restart iTunes.
    Connect the iPhone
    Your computer should recognize the phone and reloads the correct USB 2.1 driver (Apple Mobile Device)
    Then iTunes should recognize the iPhone and starts reloading the firmware.
    When that is complete it may ask if you wish to restore, naturally you say YES
    iTunes will restore the iOS
    Using iTunes, restore the latest backup to get your data back.
    When all of the above is completed.  Start enjoying your iPhone.
    If the above does not work.  Throw your iPhone out of the window and get a replacement Android phone.

  • My iPhone 3S will not allow me to upgrade. I can't download any apps and when I connected my iPhone to iTunes and tried to upgrade it, it said it was already updated. On top of that, WiFi does not work with my iPhone. What do I do to fix this?

    My dad got this iPhone for me a few months ago as a gift since I had a really awful phone before.  The only thing is, I can't seem to upgrade it to the latest software without it telling me it's already updated to iOS 4 or something like that.  (I would be able to give you the exact iOS version, but ever since connecting my iPhone to iTunes, my phone isn't responding so I can't check the settings or anything.)  I can't download any apps (I get an error message saying the software on my phone is too old) and so I pretty much am extremely limited to what I can do on this phone.  I'm very frustrated at this point and incredibly displeased with Apple's products.
    If someone could please explain to me why this is happening and what I can do to fix it, I'd be extremely grateful.
    Thanks.

    What iPhone do you have? You can check in settings>>general>> about.
    If you have a 3G you cannot update beyond iOS 4.2.1. The 3G is over 4 years old an was discontinued over 2 1/2 years ago. You need the latest ios to run the latest versions of some apps. If you have a 3GS you can update.
    If your phone is not responding, reset it by pressing and holding down both the home button ad lock/ sleep button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

    I have changed my apple id, and its ok when i sync my Iphone with Itunes, but ON my Iphone still my old apple-ID is there. I can NOT buy things from Itunes or Upgrade anything now, how to fix this?

    I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices. 

  • Can Not Sync Contacts and Calendar to iPhone Since iTunes Upgrade to 7.6

    Hello, I have an iPhone and iTunes installed on my PC--which is running Windows XP Home Edition 2002 SP2, and I only sync my Contacts and Calendar using the sync functionality through iTunes and MS Outlook 2007. I was on iTunes 7.4 and everything worked fine. I just upgraded to iTunes 7.6, and now I can not get my new contacts and calendar info from Outlook to sync with my iPhone anymore. I get this error message:
    The program "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin\OutlookSyncClient.exe" --sync com.apple.Outlook --entitynames com.apple.calendars.Attendee,com.apple.calendars.Calendar,com.apple.calendars.D isplayAlarm,com.apple.calendars.Event,com.apple.calendars.Organizer,com.apple.ca lendars.Recurrence,com.apple.calendars.Task caused a problem and is going to close.
    Is anyone familiar or know of the solution?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, but as I've said I've tried all of that described in the reference you've kindly given. I don't have a local cache, and hence no PST files. The only one I have is an OST file which I have checked for integrity using the Microsoft supplied tools. I have switched to local PST (a suggestion given in another thread), and found that not to work either, so have switched back to non cached. I have even renamed the OST file to .BAK, and had it rebuilt. Again to no avail. There is a bona fide bug here. The http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306635 article does only say "This may be due to the format of the Outlook Personal Storage File (.PST)", so I guess as the operative word is "may", its not a guarantee of this being the solution.
    Also I'm not syncing my contacts, I'm only doing the calendar nothing else.
    Additionally, this used to work, so your hypothesis, of the "bad data", being synced in 7.6 and then not being able to be subsequently budged is a definate goer I think. But the trick would be to work out what the bad data is. I'm assuming the source of the bad data is the iphone, so I've deleted old calendar in outlook entries I know to have come from the iPhone, that has, as yet, been a fruitless exercise.
    I do thank you though for your help though, I'll be scouring the internet for any tidbits of information which might help, and I'll post them back here if I find the solution, or anything which may help others unfortunate enough to be in this situation.

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • ITunes store wont open after upgrade & iphone wont upgrade! Help!

    I upgraded to newest version of iTunes yesterday when prompted. (windows 7)
    iTunes now wont access the store.
    I uninstalled everything and re installed it with latest version ans still wont access store.
    Existing tunes are playing but taking ages to play!
    I also tried to upgrade iphone too and it went to backing up the iphone and just jammed, I left it for a good time but it just stopped responding.
    HELP!!!!
    Thanks

    Well I don't know what "tried everything possible" means!
    top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
    - turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    - last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

  • Just upgraded iphone 4s to version 6 now itunes wont detect it. Any fixes or ideas?

    Just upgraded iphone 4s to version 6, now itunes either doesnt detect it or says I need new version of itunes (which I'm up to date on). Any ideas or fixes?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
