I have an IPhone 5. There is 17.01 GB of other memory being taken up. I've been told my memory has been corrupted and I need to restore my phone to a new IPhone. If I do this, will I lose everything on my phone? I backed up my phone in iCloud yesterday.
I can't figure out what is taking up 17.01 GB of memory on my IPhone 5. I have read in these forums that I should restore my IPhone to its original settings, but I am afraid if I do that I will lose all my stuff. I did back my phone up in iCloud by plugging it into my laptop, but I still don't feel i know what Im doing is 100% correct. Can anyone guide me along? I would greatly appreciate the help.
Yes, when you restore as new everything will be wipe from your phone.
You will need to sync with itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 to get back your apps/music and contacts IF you sync with a program in itunes.
I suggest you import your pics to your computer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 then after you restore your phone, you can sync it back to your phone.

i bought an iphone 4s from someone and i dont know password of his Apple ID and i need to update the apps on my new iphone i need a solution please
The only solution is to erase the apps and purchase them through your own iTunes Store account. You have no legal right to those apps - the license is not tranferrable - and cannot in any case update them without the orginal purchaser's Apple ID.

If I upgrade to this will I lose everything on my computer that is saved?
if I upgrade to this will I lose everything on my computer that is saved?
Since you are posting on the Snow Leopard forum I will assume you are asking about an "upgrade" to SL form Tiger or Leopard. The answer is no. Upgrading does not erase apps, data, docs etc.
That being said, it is always good practice to back up your files before doing an upgrade. Better safe than sorry. External hard drives are dirt cheap. -
can you restore from a older\previous backup? My last restore point is today at 12:31 and I need to restore a backup done last week. Can i do this?
Hi Xkandrux
Do you mean if I go to edit-preference-device and delete all the recent backup except the older backup I want then it will appear when I select "Restore backup " ? -

I need to use my old Trophy phone for a couple of days until I get my new iPhone, but I forgot my passcode, as I haven't used it in over a year. How do I get in?
Let's get your phone unlocked, pb1441! When the passcode is forgotten on the HTC Trophy, a Factory Data Reset would need to be done. Here is a link with the steps http://vz.to/1ofEiHx. Be sure to follow the ones listed under Alternate Reset Method.

I have been restoring the backup into a new iphone for a week. My pictures do not get restored however. Is there anything I can do?
Not unless the phone was backed up to the icloud or in iTunes at some point. I know you said it's crushed but can it be connected to a computer? If so you can still back it up in iTunes and then when the new phone comes use iTunes to restore that back up on it.

I'm waiting for my new iPhone 5s to be delivered. I lost my iPhone 5 but did have it backed up on my MacBook Pro. I was using iOS6 at the time. Will I have a problem restoring the data to my new iPhone 5s assuming it will come with iOS7?
No, you should not. There are problems trying to go the other way, but updating a newer iOS release from a backup of an older iOS release has always been supported and is the basic means of setting up a new device from a previous one.

I have a new Iphone 5, my wife has a 4S and an iPod Touch. When I sync my new 5 to the Mac, it pick up ALL of the stupid game apps that my wife uses on her two devices. How can I keep them separate?
go to itunes preferences, store, uncheck automatic downloads. also when your phone is connected you can click on apps and only check the ones you want on your phone, go down to the bottom right and click apply.

I have the lastest itunes software but I'm trying to restore a backup onto the new iphone 5s and I get an error message and cannot restore? Any advice
If iTunes is otherwise working properly start with TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, otherwise move on to Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
