  • HT4137 i have purchase another family ipad do I restore from backup or setup as a new ipad

    I have purchased another family iPad.  When I setup do I restore from the backup of our other iPad or set the new one up as a new iPad?

    if you want all your apps and data on the new iPad from your old one, choose Restore from update. If don't want to and don't apps and your data on it, choose setup as new iPad.
    If you choose Restore from backup:
    You will be asked to restore backup from iCloud or from your iTunes library.
    If you choose to restore it from iTunes library, connect it to your computer and open iTunes. Right click your iPad icon on devices lost and choose Restore. Choose the back up you want To restore it, and it should be restoring.
    If you choose iCloud, you will be asked to sign in your iCloud account. Choose the backup you want, and it should be restoring.

  • Bookmarks have disappeared on two machine unable to restore from backup folder in Firefox. How can I restore my bookmarks?

    All my bookmarks have disappeared on two machines. I tried used the restore function it did not work, and I tried to updated my Plugins and for some reason Firefox would not register the updates . How can I restore my bookmarks?

    Immediately backup the profiles on both machines. Keep the profile backup files and folders somewhere safe outside the Firefox program and profile paths. The Windows Desktop would be a suitable location.
    * see [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    * also note the information on bookmarks [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
    Do you use Firefox sync ?
    *[[Firefox Sync - Take your bookmarks, tabs and personal information with you]]
    that is not itself a backup, but you may consider the synced second device to be a backup
    Restored bookmarks overwrite the existing bookmarks. You may still have some left, but unfortunately you could have overwritten most or all of them with corrupt copies. If you backup the profile at least you have access to copies of whatever automatic backups were made. Note in future that it is good practice to periodically make backups.
    Post back again once you have backed up the profiles, and read the linked articles.

  • HT201269 itunes said i dont have enough storage on new phone to restore from backup

    i bought a new iphone 5s and want to restore from the backup from my old iphone 4. I backed up the old phone to my computer with itunes. When i try to restore it a message " not enough storage space available on phone" pops up. Is there a way to delete apps from the old backup to free some space? help please!

    You cannot modify the backup once it is done. Did you purchase a new phone with a capacity smaller than the one that you backed up?

    Why don't you just restore the to your pc from your most recent backup? You'll get the warning about erasing the media on the phone, but since you'll have all of your media and apps restored from backup, you shouldn't have much of a problem.

  • I have lost my photos/videos when i imported from my ipad 2 to my new imac latest version and it's not reading the files.  I have downloaded iMac library manager and can see them. can someone shed some light please ?

    i have lost my photos/videos when i imported from my ipad 2 to my new imac latest version OS X 10.8.4
    and it's not reading the files.  I have downloaded iMac library manager and can see them.  when i go back into iphoto i'm getting the following message :
    Do you want to switch the current iPhoto Library from “iPhoto Library.photolibrary” to “iPhoto Library.photolibrary” and relaunch iPhoto?
    I don't know what to do - please help !!!!
    can someone shed some light please ?

    So it appears you have only one library on the hard drive. Apply the two fixes below in order as needed to that library:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I have lost iPhoto off my iMac OSX 10.7

    Hi, I have lost Iphoto off my iMac OSX Lion 10.7.5, I somehow deleted into trash with some other icons from the doc, now I cant get it back and I cant down load it from the Apps page either, can someone advise me how to replace it please?

    If you deleted the icon from the dock all you need to do is go to your applications folder and double click in iOhoto to launch it. Then right click on the icon in the Dock and "keep in dock"

  • Hi! I have lost mail for a month and I want to ask you to restore it from the backup.

    hi! I have lost mail for a month and I want to ask you to restore it from the backup.

    Nobody here can restore your email for you - we're just other Apple users like yourself.
    Responsibility for backing up email is yours, so you'll have to restore it from your own backups.

  • I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I've backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade-..

    I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I’ve backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade….. I was wondering if I can get back my apps that were purchased using different apple ID (not mine). Since I am in Ethiopia doesn’t even have the chance to buy it again. I have searched it in my computer/c/user/adminstrator….but couldn’t find it. Anyone p/l help

    When I updated my iPhone to IOS 5, I did it from my MB Air, when my iPhone's "home" is my work 27" iMac. I figured I could just download the new OS at home where internet is fast and then sync at office and be done. 
    WRONG!!!  So, like others here, all my apps were "gone."
    Following some of what I read above, I did the following and now all my apps that I purchased in the past are downloading to my 27". 
    In iTunes I went to Purchased, under "Store" in left column of iTunes.
    Then at the bottom of the Purchased screen was something like Download all apps, borrom right (sorry, cant see it now, its downloading all of them).  Once I hit that, I could see all my apps and it looks like they are all coming back.
    Now all I have to do is put them all like I had them before, folders, etc.  That will be a pain BUT at least I have all of them.

    I have lost all my notes data after restore. Anyone know how to retrieve notes after restore?
    I havent' took any backup of my notes in icloud. The moment I enter the password after restore my notes will be empty. The only option to get notes back is that after restore skip entering icloud password. But any time I enter icloud password anywhere again my notes will be empty. I have huge data saved in my notes. Apple need to look into this issues very seriously. This is the 5th time I restoring my iphone today just to get my note back.

  • Ihone 4s lost all contacts. I tried to restore from backup but the error message now says there is not enough room. I have deleted all the apps without making any more room on iphone. Why did contact disappear and how do I get them back?

    In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
    iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.
