If I Back Up My IPhone, Does The New Back Up Merge With The Old One

If I Back Up My IPhone, Does The New Back Up Merge With The Old One?

Apple states that it maintains up three of your most recent backups.  This should mean that if you back up, you would still have the option to revert to one of your earlier backups.  Unfortunately, the only way to know if earlier backups exist is to attempt to restore an iCloud backup and see which ones are shown as being available.

  • HT201210 I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. I choose the option to restore from my last 3G backup. It worked fine but I just realized that I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S. What should I do? Thanks for any help. Léo

    I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. When setting up the new 4S, I choose to restore my last 3G backup. It started by updating the OS to version 5.1 (9B179) then restored my apps and setting. Everything went well except that I realized I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S, like FaceTime, HD video and Siri.
    What should I do to correct this?
    Thank you in advance for any help on this.

    Ah, FaceTime is not an app, either. It's accessed by tapping the FaceTime button when you are in the contacts app and have selected a contact. This can also be done from the Phone app under the Contacts tab, or during a call, you can switch to FaceTime.
    Let me know what other apps/features you are missing.

  • I backed up my new iPod touch with data from my old one. This seems to have erased all the new apps that came with the new iPod. What do I do now?

    I got a new iPod Touch today. I wanted to transfer all my apps and data over to the new iPod from my old one, so I restored it from my old one. Unfortunately, it seems to have erased the new apps that come with the latest iPod. What do I do to get the back?

    Maybe I'm confusing apps with function. I was looking at the features on Apple's site, and it showed Voice Control, Air Print, Air Play, that sort of thing.

    super keyword is used when there is inheritance (class extending other class). In your particular case, super keyword doesn�t make sense, since there isn�t inheritance between A and B. You can use the INT field by an instance of A class.
    a keyword like "parent" does not exist in java.

  • Can the new MacBook Air 13" with the i3 processor run Adobe Connect?

    I need a new computer for college this fall. I really am leaning towards the MacBook Air, 13" model with the i3 Processor and an upgrade to 8 GB ram. Will this (w/ a 1.3GHz Processor) run Adobe Connect? It says it requires 1.83GHz for Mac. So is it not fast enough? Should I just get the pro? :/
    Here is the site on Adobe...
    http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/tech-specs.html
    Any help is appreciated. :)

    I agree that the Retina display is only truly useful for photographers, etc; but as someone who owns a 13 inch Retina MBP and had a 13 inch MBA, I wouldn't necessarily clssify the non-Retina machines as "better".  The difference in display quality is quite noticeable, I like it, and I've never had a problem running non-optimized websites or apps on the machine and I'm fussy about displays. Maybe that's because I've left it running at default settings.
    It really all depends on where you want to put your bucks.  In general, you can get slightly better performance for the same money with a non-Retina machine.
    That said, if you're looking at benchmarks and using Geekbench, a 1.3 i5 2013 MBA comes out at 5940-5950; my 2012 2.5 i5 Retina benches out at 6777, so it's slightly faster but not remarkably so.  The 2013 1.7 i7 MBA will match up with it and even exceed it a bit, at least until the Retinas are upgraded with Haswell later.  I suspect they'll be faster, though it depends on what chips Apple uses and how much battery life they want to trade off for it.  Also, you are using some graphics power with the Retina just to process the display, and the newer Intel graphics GPU's are generally stronger than the 4000 series in the current Retina, so that's a littl bit of the trade off you'd make.
    The newer models have a faster disk access system and 8011.ac wireless though the latter is problematic at the moment and it will take some time for Apple to fix that.  You'll also not be able to take too much advantage of the faster wirelss speeds immediately unless you buy a new (8011.ac) router; it will take a few years before the rest of the world catches up to the new standard.  The 13 Retina MBP has an extra Thunderbolt port..which I routinely use..and an HDMI slot not present on the MBA.
    Just do your homework, consider all your needs, and get what serves you best.

  • Does the new magic trackpad comes with the Force Touch

    Hi
    I want buy a new magic trackpad and I wonder does it come with the new "Force Touch" that has been recently introduced to a new MacBook? 
    Thanks
    Save13

    According to the article, there is no stand-alone trackpad with that new feature available at this time:
    It makes some sense to imagine Apple will introduce support for Force Touch inside future versions of its $69 Magic Trackpad at some point. It is also likely Force Touch will be rolled out in future iOS devices.
    And, according to the store page, they are still selling the regular trackpad (no mention of a new one):

  • Does a New iMac Always Open With The Correct Screen Resolution?

    This may sound a daft question but the other day I visited a friend and when he switched his 2 year old 24" iMac on, I was horrified to see black bands down each side of the screen.
    It was obvious he had an incorrect resolution. . . . . I think it turned out to be 800x600!
    Anyway I reset it to the correct 1920x1200 and he was amazed at the improvement!
    I asked him how it had got like that and he said it had always been that way.
    My immediate suspicion was that he had bought the machine second-hand from some idiot who had been fiddling with it but he assured me he had bought it new and that's how it had been from the start.
    From what I remember, all my computers have started off with the correct screen resolution and haven't needed any resetting.
    Any idea why this happened?

    Thanks Barbara and den.thed.
    Your suggestions will be helpful for anyone with a similar problem looking at this thread, however, they don't apply in this case. (Hope that doesn't sound bad! LOL)
    This friend bought the iMac a couple of years ago simply to edit with Final Cut Pro. He doesn't use it for anything else and it isn't even connected to the internet. (He uses a PC for all mundane chores like that).
    He claims that upon initial startup it displayed the 4:3 desktop image and assumed it was normal for his machine . . . . . . . . though he must have seen others in the shops displaying correctly.
    Incidentally it may not have been 800x600, but it was certainly an incorrect 4:3 aspect ratio.
    As he is a very intelligent and skilled film maker and editor I am surprised that he never queried it, after years of using PCs.

  • Does the new iPod only charge with the computer?

    I have just recently purchased a video iPod. Soon after opening the box I realized that it did not come with a plug that would allow you to charge it using a power receptacle. The old iPod did. What is the point of having an iPod if it is not convenient to own one? If you have to carry around your computer just to charge it, why not just carry the computer with all of your songs loaded onto it? I and all who travel would like to know why the video iPod isn't as convenient as the old one.

    Here is a link to where you can get a power adapter for 6 bucks. It's the same thing but cheaper. I have one and it works perfect. It doesn's come with the usb cable so you have to use the one that came with the ipod.

  • HT4889 Can I merge the new migrated users files with the admin user on the new mac?

    I used the migration assistant to transfer users, files, apps etc from my MacBook Pro to my new iMac.  I had already set up the desktop with my name as the user. So, during transfer, it created a new user... So, I want the initial user and the new transfer user accounts to be merged. Is this possible? If not, does it matter?
    Thanks.

    It's possible by using the Shared folder to move items into and then into your admin account.
    It can be messy. If it were me I'd do a factory reset and then do the migration in Setup Assistant.
