  • IPHONE picture backup PROBLEM!!!!!

    I had about 300 pictures that I took on my iPHONE. The pics were set as portrait.
    I just backed up the pictures onto my Powerbook G4 using iPHOTO.
    When I re-synced the picture from iPHOTO back onto the iPHONE, most of them were turned into LANDSCAPE format and will not display properly.
    They look correct in iPHOTO but not on the iPHONE.
    Did I do something wrong? Can this be fixed? Thanks.

    Uhhh, it's hard to imagine you actually asked that question...LOL...Have we really all become morons in each other's eyes...LOL..
    I'm sorry...YES, I, umm, turned the phone sideways. The picture proceeded to, once again, rotate, thus, NOT ALLOWING ME to view the pic correctly...This happens quite frequently with viewing the iPHONE pics, taken with the iPHONE.
    Just wondering if there's some other way to backup and then sync...
    Thanks.

  • Iphone restore backup problem

    Big problem here lads,
    Today I transfered my purchases and synced my iphone to my itunes.
    Then I installed the latest 4.3.3 software.
    and when I went to restore it says it was last synced 24/11/2010
    Is that it now, does that mean everything is gone?
    I not only correctly synced today but i have been doing it on a regular basis since the date it is showing?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    i indeed came to a technical support forum requesting help and instead i got quizzed and how I was possibly able to do something.
    We all know about jailbreaking and unlocking phones and indeed the "hazzards" of updating to the latest versions. And everyone also knows there are ways around doing things that apple have not"signed off" on.
    Yes I have a problem which I do not know, and I admitedly I am very technical minded I am pretty **** sure that the software I have on my phone is not the issue nor would be revelant to go into exact detail on why and how I was able to do certain things.
    Now please if you want to help by all means do because not only will you be helping me but certainly others who have the same problem now and in the future. However if all you want to do is be a smart *** well then your of benefit to know one.

  • IPhone- iPhoto backup problem

    I continuously have about 12 photos that aren't identified by iPhoto as duplicates.  They are always being imported into iPhoto when I import new photos.  How can i fix this?  Besides deleting them from my iPhone.

    iMoive and iPhoto are not free apps. If you purchased them on your iPhone they should available to download again on your new iPhone.

  • Is it possible to set my IPhone 5S to automatically backup to the Verizon cloud or to backup assistant. The only settings I see is where it will remind me to do. Can it be set to automatically do this, like my Droid did.

        We want your information backed up as easily as possible, Todd536. With Verizon Cloud, you can not only tell the application when to back up automatically, but what you want backed up each time. Visit http://bit.ly/1f5sO4P for all the steps to manage your Verizon Cloud on your iPhone.

  • Moving notes from iphone to iMac and cleaning up cloud problems

    First off let me say I've had a very hard time finding any documentation of cloud services.  It's been very frustrating tying to figure out what's going on. 
    I decided I wanted all of my apple devices to be sync'ed for the main apps I use (notes, reminder, calander, and contacts).  During the startup process for using cloud services a number of questions were asked and I'm sure due to my lack of understanding of cloud services I made mistakes.  The end result is I ended up with many duplicate entries.  Trying to clean up the duplicates caused more problems.
    Here's where I am:
    on iPhone:
    good copy of notes
    good copy of contacts
    reminders look sync'ed with iPhone
    calancer seems to look sync'ed with iMac
    on iMac:
    a few notes on cloud but many gone when I tried to clean up duplicate notes on iPhone
    good copy of contacts on cloud (I deleted all entries "on my Mac")
    reminder seems to look sync'ed with iPhone
    calancer seems to look sync'ed with iPhone
    Here's what I'd like to have:
    on iPhone:
    keep good copy of notes but have it on cloud
    good copy of contacts from cloud (basically what iMac now has from cloud)
    reminder on cloud and synced with iMac
    calancer on cloud (may already be)
    on iMac:
    good copy of notes from iPhone that are on cloud (currently not so)
    keep current icloud copy (still shows "on my Mac" although I deleted all entries)
    reminder on cloud and synced with iPhone
    calancer on cloud (may already be)
    On both the iPhone and iMac I have cloud services on for all the main apps except mail.  I don't know what cloud services will mean for mail as I'm not using the apple supplied email account(again no doc to tell me what happens).
    What I don't want to happen is to lose my notes or contacts.  I'd be very unhappy.  My notes have been generated almost exclusively on my iPhone.
    I still need to turn on cloud services for my iPad but will wait till I straighten out the above mess.  I don't want to confuse things any more than they arleady are.
    Can anyone please help my achieve what I layed out above.  I would be most appreciative.

    Can anyone suggest how to get my questions/problems resolved.  I'd go to a local apple store but I can only carry my iphone which won't help much with the imac.

  • Syncing problems - itunes podcasts cloud clutter: whenever I sync iphone and mac after updating mac, mac adds already listened to podcasts to iphone. This never happened before iOS update with iphone 4S

    This was an iOS update that came around iphone 4S that overwrites the phone with what has been updated on the mac. The mac doesn't seem to know I've already listened to something on the phone. It redownloads the podcast to the mac, marking it as unplayed. Then, when I sync the iphone with mac (after updating mac), the mac adds already listened to podcasts to iphone marked as upplayed. The way it used to work was that the itunes on your mac (or PC) acted as a master content controller to whatever was on any of your devices. Ever since the cloud was added, the mac seems to have lost this ability to be a master content controller. Now the cloud clutters up itunes.
    Another problem that the cloud, itunes and podcasts is that any deleted from the mac will show up again, with links to the cloud downloaded again. This really clutters things up. It seems like the cloud has become the master controller, even though I don't use it.
    Any idea how to solve these problems? Any idea which can be used as a master content controller?

    Yes, I don't disagree with the first part. However, I could sync my iphone (to itunes 9.2.1) when I had 4.1 installed from another computer).
    I think that I am limited to an old os (10.4.11) on my mac as it is old (pre-intel) and therefore I can't update my OS. If this isn't the case, then an update to my OS could solve the problem. I'll check the requirements of the newer OS now.

  • Problem restoring Iphone 4 backup onto my new Iphone 5 with Itunes!

    I just purchased a new Iphone 5, started it and in the configuration chose restore from itunes backup. The Iphone was connected to Itunes and the Iphone 4 backup restored onto my new phone, however only very few apps made it to the new Iphone 5! Any idea? Diskspace is the same on both phones and not full at all.

    iTunes 10.7 and the iPhone 5 require Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer. Mac OS X 10.6.8 requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM; to get it, click here, buy and install the DVD, and run Software Update.

  • IPhone 5 imessage wifi and backup problem plaguing me

    After days and hours of frustration I am reaching out for some help! This is my first post so here goes...
    Iphone 5
    Running 6.1.4
    1) my first issue started with imessage. My messages were not being sent or received and every time I attempt to sign in using my apple account it says my password is incorrect - which it isn't!!
    2) second issue arose when trying to sort out the imessage issue. I thought I would try to backup and restore my iphonenvia my laptops iTunes library. However, my iPhone wont backup due to an unknown issue
    3) third and final issue is after resetting my iPhone setting to try and rectify the imessage issue I can no longer connect to my homes wifi network. My pad and partners iPhone 4 is working fine. I keep getting "incorrect password" when again, it's correct!!  I have a bt home hub 3.
    I would also add that this is my 2nd iPhone 5 as my first one had a major hardware failure and was immediately replaced. HELP

    No I think you misunderstand me, my password is correct but my phone is not accepting it. For app purchases it works fine but trying to link to imessage and it doesn't allow it .
    Also, i cannot backup as I get an error message saying "unable to backup due to an unknown error".
    If your iPhone do not accept your password, so how can that be correct?
    Delete your backup and try again.

  • Itunes could not back up iphone because backup could not be saved on the PC

    I am not able to backup my iphone. After the last step it always comes up with this message "itunes could not back up iphone because backup could not be saved on the computer" . I tried all solutions mentioned earlier like changing time zone, deleting previous backups & manually backing up, changing user admin, running itunes as an admin, etc .
    I guess my problem lies in the Camera roll. I deleted all my pictures in it and I am left with 3 images. I guess they are corrupt as I am not able to delete them. When I try to delete them from iphone gallery, it crashes. When I try to delete it from external devices like when its connected to PC, same problem occurs, cant delete these 3 pictures. I guess they are corrupt.
    Can you please let me know what to do.I dont know want to restore to factory settins

    I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
    Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

  • I previoulsy have adding many CD to my iTunes music library and then synched them with my iPhone so that I have all music in both places. And I could the CDs in iTunes or iPhone with no problems. Recently, my iTunes "sees" the music but won't play it. Why

    I have added many CD to my iTunes music library and then synched them with my iPhone so that I have all music in both places. Then I could the play them in iTunes or iPhone with no problems. Recently, my iTunes "sees" the music library but won't play any of it becuase "the original could not be found". If I attach my iPhone, then it pays them through the iPhone, but still not through the library in iTunes. How can I get the music library on my iPhone to transfer (i.e. restore it) to iTunes? I have iPhone 4S but have not upgraded to the iOS 6, and have not had any problems until last week.  Help!  Thanks.

    Check the manual for whatever backup program you used, or, if you just copied the files over, copy them that.
    How to restore data to your PC is outside the scope of these forums.

  • How to restore a used iphone with another iphone's backup?

    Hi,
    My husband broke his iphone so I made him a deal: I get to buy the new 3G S, and he can have my 3G. Here's my problem. I restored my brand-new 3G S from my 3G's backup when I came home from purchasing it and all is great there. Now I'm trying to restore my old 3G with a backup of mu husband's iPhone. I switched the SIMs and so his number now works on my old 3G, but it still has all of my contacts and everything. When I hook it up into iTunes I don't see an option to restore that phone with a different backup, because of course it recognizes that phone and has backups from it already. In iTunes, I have to date backed up my husband's old (broken)original iPhone, my old 3G and my new 3G S. Want to restore the 3G with original iPhone's backup.
    Thanks for help! Will mark solved/helpful.

    I did this (but the other way round - she gets the old one and I get the new one - Bwahahahahaha!!!!)
    Anyway (sorry about that - it's the heat), I did the restore on her 'new' phone, and iTunes asked at some point whether I wanted to restore as <whatever we called her phone originally> or as a new iPhone.
    I chose 'new iPhone' and resynced everything from iTunes, but you could choose 'husband's phone' and restore from an existing backup.
