  • HT1766 I have restored my new phone from I cloud but when I connect to my PC to put some music on it asks for  set up as new phone or back up from a date from iTunes that is too old. Help it's doing my head in

    I have restored my new phone from I cloud but when I connect to my PC to put some music on it asks for  set up as new phone or back up from a date from iTunes that is too old. Help it's doing my head in

    Select setup as "New", the next screen should prompt you to rename your phone. Just name it what you already have it named. After that, you should be able to sync and all of your data & settings will still be exactly as you've already set them up on your phone. The message is more threatening than what really happens.

  • I'm backing up my new iphone 5 from icloud and it's taking forever to download my photos. It being going for four days. Am I doing something wrong?

    I'm backing up my new iphone 5 from icloud and it's taking forever for my photos to download. It's been going for 4 days. It's downloaded 1400 out of 1900 photos. Am I doing something wrong?

    I think you may not using the right technical terms.  When backing up to icloud, there is no way you'd get a message saying things will be wiped.  This message may be displayed when you are performing a RESTORE from a backup and then trying to cancel it.
    If you are doing a restore, then you can reboot and restore again.

    Hi I recently destroyed my iPhone 4, before replacing it I backed it up through iTunes... I restored my new phone from my old one's backup but not one single picture was copied..

    Restore from the backup!
    You password: You have set it! It might be your passcode or you mioght have set it accidentally, so test all of the passwords you normally use. If you cannot get the password you backup is lost, but you can still sync your iTunes content.

  • Restored my new 5s from the cloud still says it is being restored.

    I have restored my new 5s from the cloud and the phone works good, but it still says it is being restored so I cannot update to 7.0.1
    This is going on 12 hours.

    Hey beef1976,
    I can understand your frustration. However, the following article provides a little more insight:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting restoring an iCloud backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4036
    The restore process is taking a long time to finish.
    The amount of time needed by the restore process depends on your geographical location and the speed of your Internet connection. Even with a fast Internet connection, the restore process may need 1 to 4 hours per gigabyte to complete.
    If you're traveling between countries, the restore process may require more time than usual. iCloud is tuned to provide the best service when you're in the geographical location from which you most frequently connect to the Internet. When restoring from an iCloud backup, iCloud is tuned to provide the best service in the geographical region you were in when you created the backup.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • TS4036 i need to restore my new phone from my old icloud backup

    i need to restore my phone with my icloud backup. my phone had to be set up as a new phone to install the newest opperating system , now i can not retreave my old information backed up in icloud

    To restore from your iCloud backup, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  Then go through the setup screens on your phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Be sure it is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

  • How do i get pics back on my phone from the cloud?

    Had to do factory reset after upgrading to lollipop. Now i need to get my pics back from the cloud to my phone. Could someone help?

    If the photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring the backup should recover them.  Restoring an iCloud backup requires first erasing your phone.  If you have any newer data on your phone since the backup that you want to keep, you'll need to save that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Sign into your iCloud account and choose your last backup to restore to.
    Make sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.

  • My daughter has just changed her phone from an iphone to a nokia but when i send her a message it still comes up as an i message and she doesnt receive it?

    my daughter has changed her phone from an iphone to a nokia but kept the same number but when i send her a message from my iphone it still comes up as an i messsage and she doesnt receive it can anybody tell me how to fix this please

    She needs to remove that device from the iMessage database, or if she still has the phone, she can go into Settings, Messages and turn off iMessage. If she still has the phone, she just needs to put the SIM back in for a couple of minutes to turn that off.
    If she does not have the phone any more, she will need to go to her Support Profile, if she registered the phone and delete the phone from the profile.

  • TS3694 I downloaded and installed the ios 6 software last night and now my phone has been stuck on the silver apple and loading place for hours. Please tell me how i can turn my phone back on as soon as possible!!

    Hello Elliiee,
    The steps detailed below can help stabilize your iPhone.
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • I've just downloaded itunes on a new computer, and I'm downloading music from the cloud, but it seems to stick on certain songs and won't download them at all, stopping at a certain point. How do I get round this?

    Hi all,
    I've just downloaded itunes onto a new computer, and I'm currently downloading previously owned music from the cloud. However, it keeps sticking on various songs - it will get part of the way through and just stop, this seems to happen to about 1 in 10 songs. How do I get round this?
    Also, once I've finished dowloading from the cloud, how do I get my library to display only the songs I've downloaded, and not all the other ones that I don't want anymore?
    Cheers, Alex

  • I need help. Recently I purchased the iPhone 5C. I restored my new phone from my icloud backup. However, my pictures did not restore. I do not understand what is going on but I would really love to get my pictures back as soon as possible. Help. Please?

    I really need the help. Thanks.

    If you are upgrading from and old phone and still have the old phone, the easiest thing to do would be to import the photos from your old phone to your computer, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
    If not, and all you have is the backup, about all you can do is try restoring the backup again, or try restoring an earlier backup of your old phone if one is listed.  If you have to restore the same backup, be sure your phone is near your wifi router and connected to your charger so there won't be any interruption in the wifi signal.  You might also want to try the approach posted by ezjules here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589.  This basically involves opening the camera roll on your phone after the phone restarts during the restore process and leaving it that way until the restore is done.  This seems to have worked for some people.

  • Why can't I restore my new phone from my last backup?

    I broke my old iPhone 3G (16GB) so today I went to the Apple store, and got a new one for free by setting up an AT&T account (this free iPhone 3G is 8GB). I got home, plugged it in my laptop, and wanted to transfer my stuff from my old phone over to my new one so I clicked restore from last backup. When I did so, I got this error message: iTunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored. How do I fix this? I need to restore from my last backup but apparently it's corrupted?! Any help is appreciated! Thanks

    Nope I looked on devices preferences and it's the only one. I've tried multiple ways to solve this problem but none seem to work... Could it be because my old phone was jailbroken?
