I want to change the sync on my laptop from my old iPhone 3GS to my new iPhone 4s,how do I do this?

I want to change the sync on iTunes on my laptop from my old iPhone 3GS to my new iPhone 4s,how do I do this?

maybe be more specific...
you can sync multiple devices to the same itunes account on the same laptop.  Simply plug in the new iphone 4s and check off all the settings you want to sync (apps, music, playlists, books, videos, etc).
If you want your iphone 4s to look exactly like your 3gs...
1. do an icloud backup of your 3gs
2. restore your iphone 4s to factory settings
3. when setting up the phone, choose "restore from icloud backup"
4. choose the most recent icloud backup (should display the date and time of the 3gs backup you just performed
5. phone will load everything just as it is on the 3gs... onto the iphone 4s

    You need to contact Apple. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

  • I sync my iphone 3gs to my new iphone 4s...

    I sync my iphone 3gs to my new iphone 4s but i don't see my songs in the itunes (no content), the calendar is emty and it only transfered some of my contacts (no favorites).  Any body can help? Please?

    Ok.  I fixed the old phone and was able to do the icloud back up.  Everything came back to my new ph, even the messages and the call records!  But in the old ph I had music and it didnt sync to the new one.  The music is in the "manually added song" list.  I can see this list when I plug my old ph, click music and scroll down.  I need to transfer them to the new ph.  The "Sync Music" is selected and the "selected playlists, artists,albums and genres" is selected also.  If I click "entire music", will it transfer ALL I have in Itunes or only in that ph (which is what I need)? Thank you

  • When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?

    When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?

    Usually the Window menu allows you to adjust window placement in Microsoft Office products.
    If not, connect an external display or projector and change the resolution to the maximum.   
    Save the document with the window residing on the main screen with the Dock.
    That will force it to open on the main screen in the future.

  • How do I change my iPad iTunes account & content from an old computer (XP) to a new computer 8.1

    How do I change my iPad iTunes account & content from an old computer (XP) to a new computer 8.1

    Hi RyanQuilty,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The first step on your new computer is to install the latest version of iTunes:

    Then follow the steps below to backup your iTunes library from the Windows XP computer to an external hard drive:

    Before connecting your iPad to the new computer, I would suggest backing it up to iCloud, and changing your sync settings to "manual" on the new computer:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    iCloud
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your device using iOS 5 or later. After you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch inSettings > iCloud > Backup & Storage,
    You can also back up manually whenever your device is connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi by choosing Back Up Now from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.

  • I recently updated my Iphone 5s to ios8 from ios7(.something) and lost all photos, text messages, etc. and then restored it using an old Icloud backup from 2014. I want to change the Icloud backup to one from this year.

    Is it possible to do this, and how? My iphone 5s is still restoring currently in the Backup settings and there's an option that says "Stop restoring Iphone" if I tap it, it says "any data that has not been downloaded will not be restored or backed up in the future"... AND I KNOW that if I update my iphone from ios7 to ios8 that it is a big jump and is the reason why I lost everything on it. So please don't tell me that is the answer to my question, because it's not. I am clearly asking if I can change the icloud backup date from 2014 to one from this year. This is because my iphone asked me which backup I want to use to restore my stuff from after the ios8 update. I hope this question isn't too confusing!!

  • Can I change the progress of my games from my father's GC to my new GC? I have been using the games in my father's GC. So all the GC points are in that account and I want to change those points to my new GC account( it's with an other email add.)

    hello guys I am in a situation. I had been using my father's apple/Icloud account till now. And I had created a game centre account using it. Now he asked me to make a new ID for myself and I created it. And I also created the game centre account using it. But I found that the points that I got from each game was missing. The progress of the game was still there but the points of game centre were missing. Those points were still there in my father's GC account. Can I transfer those points to my account?

    No, you cannot do a transfer.

  • How to change the language on my laptop from spanish to english

    i had my laptop cleaned and for some reason whoever cleaned it changed the language from english to spanish and how do i change the language back. 

    If you do not have a menu list in the top left corner of your iTunes, press the ALT key to display it. Then select the second item on the list ("Edit" in my screenshot):
    then select the last item on the drop-down menu ("Preferences" in the screenshot):
    and you will be on the General tab. At the bottom of the tab, click on the drop-down menu and select Norwegian (Bokmål only it seems! ):
    The change will not take effect until you re-start iTunes.

  • We switch from an old email address to a new one. How can we move the data from the calendar?

    We move to a new email address. How can we move all the data from the calender (iCloud) to the new calender (because the iCloud is now based on a new email address)

    Go to appleid.apple.com and sign in with your current Apple ID
    Change the Apple ID to the old one and save changes.
    Sign in on the device with the same password for your account.
    After logging in and signing out of Facetime, Messages, iCloud and itunes and app store, go back to Apple ID.com and change it back to your normal Apple ID.
    Go to your email account and reverify your account by clicking on the Verify now link
    Now re-login to those services with your normal Apple ID and password.

  • After I updated my iPhone with IOS 6.1 my old Apple ID keeps popping up on my iPhone for me to type in the password that I no longer know. On the Apple site the Manage my Apple ID says my old Apple ID could not be found. How do I get this to stop?

    I just updated my iPhone with the newest update IOS 6.1. My old Apple ID keeps popping up on my iPhone for me to type in the password that I no longer know. All the passwords I type in do not work. I no longer have access to this email which is my old Apple ID. After installing the newest software update my old Apple ID came up to finish configuring. Since I no longer have access to this Apple ID and email account and after trying some passwords I skipped the step. It then said FaceTime, iCloud (which I do not use), and more may not work. I clicked that it was OK since I could not remember the password to my old Apple ID. I then went to my settings to be sure my newer email was my Apple ID by typing in my current Apple ID and password.  Also, I went to Manage my Apple ID online and my old Apple ID could not be found. Is it OK I skipped that step in the IOS 6.1 configuration? How do I get my old Apple ID to stop popping up?

    Blue
    It sounds like you restored from an old back-up.  Did you back-up just before your software update?  It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
    In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
    Sorry for your losses.
    Cheers

  • HT201302 iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer, but I want to reverse the process and copy images from my desktop Windows PC to my new iPad Mini.  Is this possible in some more direct way than through copying several

    Instead of copying images (jpgs, etc) from my iPad Mini to my desktop PC, I'd like to do the opposite, that is, copy existing images from my PC files to my Mini without going through a multi-email process which involves resizing the images by experiment.
    I hope someday Adobe Lightroom can add this feature, but I'll settle for some simple transfer, perhaps by cable between my PC and my Mini.

    You can do it via your computer's iTunes. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • When I select a sound email or video, decide I want to go to another video or email, the sound from the first video continues to completion before I can listen to my new selection. How can I stop this?

    How do I stop the sound from a video or email when I want I click out of the video. Presently, the sound continues and I have to escape out to home screen to stop it.

    Now as you may know there is some icons at the bottom of the mail app, at the top left conner you should have the inbox button and on the upper right conner you should have two arrows to shift between emails. If any of those options works try :
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings
    If that does not work try to re add the account
    Last but not least, restore as new.
    Hope that helps.
