I have just purchased the iPhone 5s and my previous phone was backed up on iCloud. However when I restored this on my new phone my photos are still being restored after 4 days. Shows the amount there but no pictures?
I have just purchased the iPhone 5s and my previous phone was backed up on iCloud. However when I restored this on my new phone my photos are still being restored after 4 days. Shows the amount there but no pictures? Is there anything I can do to get them back as my other phone has now been cleared. On my iCloud storage it still shows that my previous phone had all the info still?? I'm confused!
Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS. Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud. There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
See:
Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage, tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
IMPORTANT...
Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream. If using Photo stream, but sure to move the received photos to a permanent album. If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
Or, you can find other apps in the app store that send camera roll photos to a service like Dropbox.
If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered. I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".

I have just purchased an iphone today and it is coming up with a picture on the screen of the usb connector and itunes symbol. It also says that I now have no service and can only make emergency calls
Just a thought, but maybe consider returning the device. Seems it might be a bit too complicated for you.

Start up a video in the YouTube app. Once the video is playing, tap the screen once. You should see a volume slider appear near the bottom of the screen. Slide it with your finger all the way to the right.

I just purchased an iPhone 5 and my phone has many duplicate contacts on it. I want to edit my contact list that's saved on the cloud and then replace the contacts on my phone with the edited list. I have spent hours but no success yet.
Okay
So when you edit in iCloud you are not seeing an update on your iphone?. I just did a test in iCloud.com and it changed my iPhone contact list in less than 1 second. So iCloud is functioning fine.
If you delete all the contacts on your iPhone and if you are properly synced they will all be wiped out on iCloud.....ugh! So let's not do that...
Your plan should be to make all the changes in iCloud and have them flow down to your iPhone. That sounds what you are trying to do anyway.
So. if you delete a contact in iCloud or edit a contact in iCloud then you are not seeing the changes on your iPhone?
If so then they are not properly synced..... but I wonder how you have any contacts in iCloud.
Let me know if you are seeing any changes, if mot then we can review the syncing set-up.

How can I get my itunes from my mac onto my new phone and have them in itunes on the phone? Love my music! Thank You !
You have to update to 10.6.8 first.
Then, if your machine qualifies, this explains how to get Mavericks:

I have purchased Lightroom 5 for my window computer. I have just purchased an Apple Mac and want to install it there also but Adobe won't accept my existing Lightroom key

Hi bertalan,
The Lightroom windows serial key will not work with the Mac as the these serial keys are platform specific.
Thanks

The Lightroom serial number is cross-platform. It works on both Windows and Mac.

Hello, I have Just purchased an iphone 5 2 weeks ago but when I look through my USB power adapter, there is no serial number printed inside the USB opening, can I know is it a fake one?
If you purchased it from Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it's genuine.
If not, it is very likely to be counterfeit and dangerous to use. Counterfeit power adapters often bear fraudulent consumer product safety markings. It is difficult or impossible to distinguish a genuine power adapter from a counterfeit from an exterior inspection, and inspecting its interior destroys the adapter.
From http://www.apple.com/support/usbadapter-takeback/:
If you need a replacement adapter to charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod, we recommend getting an Apple USB power adapter. For a limited time, you can purchase one Apple USB power adapter at a special price — $10 USD or approximate equivalent in local currency. To qualify, you must turn in at least one USB power adapter and bring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to an Apple Retail Store or participating Apple Authorized Service Provider for serial number validation.
If in doubt, do not use it. -
I have just bought an iPhone 5 and it won't sync to iTunes. It says it needs iTunes 10.7, which I have downloaded and installed. I still get the error message and looking at "about iTunes" it says 10.6.3. What do I do??
Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:

I have just purchased a iPhone 4S outright and I backed it up through iTunes from a previous backup of my 3GS. I have deleted that previous back up and now when I connect this 4S to iTunes to sync, it sits in Backing Up "Julie's IPhone" with the candy stripes, it will not proceed further. Even when I try to restore (with back up) it sits in this. I have to keep disconnecting and trying again. Please help, this is driving me insane!!!
yes everything that should be on is enabled.

I have just got a iPhone 4s and I can't get the iCloud to work, everytime I turn on auto downloads it defaults back to off, can anyone help?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check you are logged into your store account properly (settings > store). Also check there are no restrictions set that might be causing this (settings > general > restrictions) -
what are peoples opinions about streaming videos on website i.e. justintv for example. is there are hight risk fr a mac? I have just purchased my first mac and am tempted but don't want to compromise my new mac
There are no known viruses for OS X. If you have to worry about a website putting some malware on your computer, then you should not visit it any longer. Find a legitimate site.

I have just got a iPhone 4S and it's still registered on the previous owner iCloud and I can't seem to change it to my I cloud help please
As deggie said, you are the victim of Activation Lock. Activation Lock is described here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695
Either you need to contact the previous owner to release the phone from Find My iPhone, or if you cannot contact the previous owner, it is likely you received a stolen iPhone and it will be useless to you. -
I have just bought the iPad Air but cannot access the roots I have on my iCloud account. They do appear on my old ipad 2, any ideas how I can access them please
Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.
