I just upgraded from a 3Gs to the new 4s and I noticed that my Bluetooth in my car no longer works well with Siri. Everytime I use a voice command to dial a number it starts the search, finds the number and then says call ended!
Is anyone else having this problem? I never had a problem with the 3Gs!!
Almost there...
I'm replying to myself, as I have found the answer.
1. Started iTunes, connected iPhone 4S, turned on Airplane mode.
2. In iTunes, hovered mouse over my iPhone 4S name in left column, in popup box clicked on "Restore from Backup..."
3. From menu clicked on name of my old iPhone 3GS backup.
4. Backup appeared to be finished in about 8 minutes, but I new that could not be correct...iPhone had rebooted, so I entered password. I could see that most apps were "waiting" and grayed out, also in iTunes top status box indicated that apps were being sync'd. Also noted that my iPhone 4S now had the same name as my "old" iPhone 3GS.
5. After some time (a couple of hours, perhaps, not sure because I went to sleep), everything appeared sync'd on new iPhone, and iTunes stated that sync was OK.
6. Manually renamed my new iPhone 4S to its correct name, then backed up to computer.
I decided to hold off on iCloud for now - two majore issues: 1) have heard some reports of data dissappearing, and 2) I will have to talk to Apple about MobileMe instructions for moving to iCloud, which state that move will not transfer my mobileme email, and also that I cannot install iCloud management software (nor sync to Outlook) on my Windows XP computer - I intend to upgrade to a new Win7 in January 2010, and I have heard it is not so simple to change iTunes/device syncing to another computer. Sounds like a good project for the Christmas-NewYear holidays...

If your backup is encrypted and you don't know the password anymore, you'll have to start from the beginning and set up the phone without the backup. An encrypted backup can't be used anymore without the correct password.

I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to 4.3.5 and my universal doc stopped working with it? It has worked flawlessly for the last year and suddenly I get the message: "this iphone is not optimized for this device." I dismiss the message, but the remote no longer works with it and the music is too quite to the speakers. The remote works fine with my Macbook Pro. I tried a restore on the iPhone and started from scrach, but the same problem exists.
Any help with this?
Thanks,

I had iLife pre-installed on my aluminium Macbook 2009 with OSX Leopard on it. My hard drive broke but got most of the info off it and just installed snow Leopard on to a new drive and then downloaded and installed Mountain Lion over it. Now I don't have iLife anymore. How do I get it back?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Mac OS X doesn't come with iLife applications, so you have to install them manually after installing Mac OS X.
Insert the Applications disc or Mac OS X Install Disc 2 DVD and install iLfe applications. Then, open > Software Update, and install the latest update. If you want, you can purchase iMovie, GarageBand and iPhoto in the App Store, so you will get the most recent version -
My FaceTime isn't working properly. Every call I make a black dot appears on the camera in the middle (fixed onto the screen, and is not dirt), and the calls always fail. It would ring 6 times and then say call failed. How can I fix this?
If FaceTime ever worked properly for you, restarting your modem (and separate router/wireless if you have such) may help. If the problem continues, try connecting at a different location to see if the problem is within your wi-fi.
The black dot problem may mean you need to reset your iPod. If that does not help, it may need service by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
If you need help with any of these suggestions, detailed help on each topic is available via Apple's Support pages:

I just upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, I added a new user to my computer however it does not show up on start up. What can I do to change this?
If you are in System Preferences > Users & Groups, click Login Items at the bottom of the list of users in the left side bar, and do you have the box checked to show the users?

Like i said, the iPod is brand new. It works great in all aspects. But I frequently watch movies online with my iPod. Since i have upgraded to the fifth generation, this is almost impossible. The video begins to play and then freezes as if it is buffering. But the video never plays again. It is impossible for me to use my movie site to watch movies anymore and i am very disappointed.
Sounfs like a network problem.
Try
- When connected to another network
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings -

Upgrading from OS 8 to OS 8.5 and then to 8.6.
Hello,
I would like to know, please, if I need to reinitialize my hard drive on a Performa 6220 CD (Power Pc) in order to install OS 8.5 over my OS 8.0 and the subsequent upgrde to OS 8.6? I do not know if a computer this old will allow OS 9.0 and I need to get an operating system that will put "Apple Remote Access" into my control panels. I realize it is part of the Open Transport system which is way above my head. I am trying to set up this computer with a dial-up ISP for a friend, and I can never find plain old "Apple Remote Access" in the control panels for which the ISP help line personnel keep asking. I am using a 56K Supra Express modem, but cannot make a connection. Please, does anyone have suggestions? Thank you.
6220 CD Mac OS 8.6 or EarlierYour computer is able to run Mac OS up to 9.1. If you were to install 9.1 I would recommend re-initializing the hard drive during the installation process.
As far as I recall you do not need to reformat the hard drive to install 8.5, but changes were made with the SCSI Manager so it's a good idea to at least update the drivers using Drive Setup. This is non-destructive, but it's still a good idea to backup beforehand. -

I've just upgraded from 3GS to Iphone 4, payment meth declined??
Hi
I've just upgraded from a 3GS to an iPhone 4. I succesfully transfered everything. A few apps needed updates, no problem I thought.

So I tried another account, different card etc same problem! I have money in both accounts, & Im not trying to purchase anything!!
This is doing my head in, apps need updates & I was fancying a few new ones but I cant get any. Can anyone help?Welcome to the Apple community.
Are the photos that you are referring to part of a camera roll, photo stream or are they simply photos that you have synced from your computer via iTunes. -
