I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?
Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

i have an iphone 3gs in which sleep/wake button not working. i have got stuckn in an apple logo in my phone screen. is there any software or any solution to turn on or restore my phone?? Please help...and thaks in advance
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore from Backup.. Restore as New...
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

Many apps missing after upgrade from iPhone 3gs to iPhone 4?
Hi - I'm trying to troubleshoot for my dad who was lucky enough to receive the iphone 4 today. He says the majority of apps didn't transfer from his iphone 3gs. I did a screen share with him and he's right. The apps are on the old iphone 3gs but not showing in his apps library or on the new phone. Anyone else experiencing this? He did a full back-up and had already upgraded his iphone 3gs to the iOS4 software. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I had this issue but found the cause and solution.
When upgrading from the iPhone 3GS to the iPhone 4 (initial connection of new phone to iTunes) and AT&T moved my phone number from the 3GS to the 4; the 4 told me to power cycle (and I think unplug). Since a power cycle causes the phone to disconnect & reconnect to iTunes, and since the first sync after plugging the phone in always does a backup, it did a backup of the blank phone settings (no apps), and therefore wiped out the checked apps in the Applications tab of iTunes. (Note: The apps' data did exist, so checking an app, syncing, and then running the app showed the data. Good news: Data's still there. Bad news: Any apps you skip will hold their old data, as opposed to when you delete an app and it removes the app data for you.)
After hitting Erase All Content and Settings on my old 3GS and realizing it only took a minute and not an hour like the original iPhone did running OS 2 or 3, and seeing how smoothly its reinstall went (loaded settings, rebooted phone, and loaded apps OK), and more importantly that iTunes kept the old final 3GS backup and used a new backup for the new iPhone 4, I tried it on the iPhone 4: I hit Settings, General, Reset, Erase All Content and Settings, then connected the phone. It asked which settings to restore, found my old phone backup (used date/timestamp to find right one); it then loaded settings (a few minutes), rebooted, and went right to installing apps. My phone was fine after that - all apps and folders were restored. -
Maybe my title says to much. I have multple contacts, notes, sometimes just two, sometimes 14. I upgraded to Mt. Lion and that may be an issue or maybe syncing is the issue. It is making me crazy/er! I have 4 e-mail contact lists and that may be part of the issue with e-mail but why duplicate notes? I am stumped. Please give your thoughts for a solution. I have deleted the duplicates from iPhone (3gs, iMac, and iPad2).
Thanks,
JimI forgot to say that the duplicate entries return after I have deleted them. Strange to me is why do some contacts show up as many as 14 times. I am suspecting that there could be an issue with iCloud or iTunes. Truly a mystery to me for now.

Questions about upgrade from iphone 3gs to iOS4.
hello.
Anyone of you guys know that if my current 3gs is upgraded to the new iOS4, can all my apps from 3gs be able to work on the new iOS4?
Also is the battery features from the iOS4 apply on my current 3gs?
thanks!can all my apps from 3gs be able to work on the new iOS4?
Most of the Apps should continue to work fine, or be updated soon to work with iOS 4. Developers have had access to it for a long time, giving them chance to update their Apps if necessary.
Also is the battery features from the iOS4 apply on my current 3gs?
What battery features?

Problem accessing photo's from icloud when upgraded from iphone 3gs to 5
I upgraded from an iphone 3gs to a iphone 5, but I don't seem to be able to access my photo's that were stored on icloud. As these consisted a lot of my granddaughter from birth I would not like to loose them, even tho I have some copies on my computer. Am a bit of a novice at all this but can anyone tell me how to access them. I have tried to follow what it says to do, but only seems to have the photos that I have since taken on my new phone. Nothing from my old one.
Ensure on your on you iPhone 5 that you have Photo Stream enabled. Go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream. Ensure these settings are on.
And also ensure that you have signed in with the same Apple ID that you had on your 3GS. -
Upgrading from iPhone 3Gs to iPhone 4 problems! Help!!
My uncle sent me his old iPhone 4 since he got the 4S. I currently have an iPhone 3Gs. However, when I restore the iPhone 4 from the backup of my 3Gs, my number won't transfer from the 3Gs to the iPhone 4! What do I do?
No I didn't. I figured since my uncle upgraded to his iPhone 4S, his number would be gone from this sim card he sent with the phone. His phone service is gone, but the sim card still identifies with his number, and when I try to restore the phone from my backup, EVERYTHING transfers over, except the number. Is there a way to wipe the sim card clean, maybe?

IPhone 4 upgraded from iPhone 3GS but Apps did not synch after restore...
I have had every iPhone since the very first one - call me crazy... and each time a new one has come out, all I have needed to do is take it home, restore from last back up and voila - all good. This time, no so good - I took the new iPhone 4 home, plugged it in, restored from backup, then selected to synch my iPhone. Now, admittedly, I have 21.4 GB of music, about 4800 songs (which is why I bought the 32Gb phone, again) and it takes quite a while to restore and synch the phone. When the initial synch was complete, iTunes had only copied my music, movies, pics, etc, everything EXCEPT my APPS! So I spent about an hour organizing all my apps into folders and moving them around, then I synched it and all was good 4 days ago. Last night I went to synch my phone and received several errors stating that the phone could not synch and that some files were missing, so I restored from backup, again, and resynched, again, and this time, like last, all my apps were not installed, but only some of the folders were... Am I doing something wrong or is there a trick to get this to work... or maybe some of the apps I have need to be trashed?

I need to ask, just in case, but are you certain you have enough room for the apps? It seems like you do, but you might have synced some videos or movies that prevent the apps from syncing.
You might have some corrupted Apps too. Don't synch any apps you don't need, and then try again. You're going to have to take some time to sort through it all. -

Syncing Apps from iPhone 3GS to 4S
Hey folks,
I recently upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4S. I synced up my 3GS to iTunes and then connected my new phone. When I synced them I chose the restore from existing option. This worked great and I have all of my messages, email account settings, Photos etc etc. However, None of my Apps have been transferred to the new device. How do I get all of my Apps from the 3GS to the 4S??
Any help would be great!
