Just purchased a new iPhone 4S and instead of downloading from my old phone, I set up as a new iPhone. Can I revert this?

I just purchased a new iPhone 4S. Instead of restoring my information from my old phone, I set up as a new one. Is there anyway I can change this?

Doesn't sound like your restored from your backup, otherwise pics in your camera roll would've transfer over.
Take a look at the link and double check you did the correct steps.

    OS X will automatically block versions of Flash that are known to be unsafe. As long as Flash is kept up to date, it's reasonably safe. You can minimize your exposure to Flash content by installing the "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin" Safari extension. Flash elements will then load only when clicked.

  • HT4743 I just purchased an iTunes TV show and it successfully downloaded. It is now saying that I do not have the proper version of QuickTime on this version of iTunes (10.6.3). How can a show I purchased be incompatible with the latest version of iTunes?

    I want a refund, but I can't even figure out how to request one through support. Super frustrated and long time Apple customer.

    After a day of trying, both iTunes and my Apple TV are telling me that the episodes of Scooby Doo I purchased are incompatible due to QuickTime. I still don't understand how I purchased something from iTunes that doesn't work with iTunes.
    the exact error I receive when I try to play an episode is the following:
    "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."
    Any advice would be great!

    Was the FCS on your old machine an upgrade? You will need to enter your original, full version serial first, and then you will be prompted for the upgrade serial number.
    Hope this helps.

  • When I go in I cloud data storage, it says I have 3.3gb from an old phone which was replaced by a new phone. The new phone has 1.2gb of data. Can I now get rid of the data on the old phone from the i cloud.

    When I go in I cloud data storage, it says I have 3.3gb from an old phone which was replaced by a new phone. The new phone has 1.2gb of data. So I now have a total of 4.5GB OF DATA stored. The Old phone is now with Apple and I deleted all the information.  Can I now get rid of the data on I cloud for the old phone. What data does the 3.3GB consist of? Is there anyway, I can find out?
    Thanks

    When you delete an iCloud backup it is permanently deleted and not available in the future to restore from.  The backup of your second phone only contains the data and settings from that phone.  If any of this data was inherited from your first phone, it would be contained in the backup of your second phone as it was on your second phone when it was backed up.
    If you want to keep backups of your old phone, back them up in iTunes and they will remain on your computer.  Even if you are backing up to iCloud, you can manually back up your phone in iTunes by right-clicking on the name of your phone on the left side of iTunes and selecting Back Up.  iTunes will see each device as a separate device, and will maintain the backups separately.  Do this with your first phone and you can then delete the iCloud backup and you will have the iTunes backup on your computer should you ever want to access it.

  • I just purchased an IMac with lion and I tryed to install an old math program that is for winmac running systems. When I try to boot the cd it comes up with a notepad window with a bunch of weird symbols and codes but the program will not start up.

    I just purchase my first IMac with lion and I was trying to install a math program I bought 6 years ago. When I went to boot it off the disk while following the program instructions a window popped up with a note pad format with symbols and codes but the program would not download or open. How do I get this program to work? It is a mac compatible program by the way.

    Your Mac probably does not know with which application to open the file and is opening a file with a text editor that really needs to be opened by the application itself.  Try starting the application first, then use the File > open command to open the file.
    As varjak paw comments, there isn't a "winmac" so that's not telling us anything.
    Note that it is possible that software purchased 6 years ago may no longer run on your computer.  Once we know what it is we can help more.

  • Hello, I've just purchased apple tv, 3rd gen, and I'm streaming from my mac book pro to my tv, and it keeps skipping slightly, i have reasonably good internet speed, approx 7-8 Gb.

    hi, my apple tv i have purchased which is 3rd gen, is skipping when i stream to my tv, I'm using the latest software on my mac book pro, which is approx 2 years old, my router is only a few months old, but i am using power line adapters, but i have no problem downloading or watching internet telly 4OD/YOUTUBE etc.
    is their anything i can do as i have only  bought the apple tv for mainly streaming from my mac.
    thanks
    gary

    If you are streaming from your Mac then your internet speed would be irrelevant. This is done over the local network, and that is where the issue lies.
    Reboot ATV and router
    Make sure router is up to date
    If Apple TV is connecting via wifi, connect with ethernet
    Go to istumbler.net to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise

  • Upgrade to iphone 5 and keep unlimited data from an old blackberry?

    To Whom this may concern,
    I currently have a family plan with 5 lines (1 basic phone, 2 iphone 4s, and 1 blackberry bold). Both iphone 4s phones have 2gb of Internet data a month and the blackberry has unlimited internet data. I have 2 upgrades on my family plan, the iphone 4s and blackberry. If I transfer the upgrade from the 4s to the basic phone and then get the new iphone 5 from the basic phone upgrade (I would have to get the 2gb data plan when i purchase iphone 5 for the contract price), can I then put the iphone 5 on the blackberry line (basically just switch phones) to keep my unlimited data, then put the basic phone back where it was and cancel the 2gb data plan (not get charged the $30 for the month)? I have read and heard that this can happen and was wondering if I could do it.
    Any help and if would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if this has already been posted.
    Thanks Guys

    If the iPhone 4S, already has the 2GB data plan and it is eligible for an upgrade, why don't you order the iPhone 5 on that line?  You would extend the contract on the iPhone 4S line and then you can use the iPhone 5 on the BlackBerry line.

  • Can i create a new iTunes account and sync my stuff from my old account to it?

    i just recently got a new Mac laptop and i want to make my own iTunes account because i dont want to share with my family anymore. Is there any way i can create a new account and sync everything from my phone (and old accout) to my new account?

    Yes but you will need to authorize your computer for purchases on the old iTunes account.

  • I purchased an album on iTunes and all songs downloaded, but one song is not associated with my Apple ID (I can't play it).

    I bought an album from iTunes. All of the songs play except one. When I double click on it, a message comes up saying this computer is not authorized to play it, asking me if I want to authorize the computer. Yet when I log in with my ID, the response is that the computer is already authorized.  Then it skips to the next song. I have updated iTunes through software update and am using 11.0.4 (4). I have tried to reboot the computer but the situation stays the same.
    I also deleted the file from iTunes to try re-downloading it. The song appears in my list of purchased songs, but when I try to download it again, I get an error message that says "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you cannot auto download or download past purchases with a different Apple ID for 90 days." My options at this point are a "Transfer" button or a "Cancel" button. Transfer what? What is it talking about?? I purchased and downloaded the complete album at once, obviously with the same Apple ID---the ONLY Apple ID I have ever had and the ONLY Apple ID ever used on this computer! How is one song mysteriously associated with a different account? What is the point of purchasing music legally if it doesn't work? Can anyone help me get this song to play in iTunes? The other strange thing is that it plays just fine in finder.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    If only one track on the album is throwing that message, that suggests the track is damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • HT201269 I've just got a new phone and all my music from my old phone isn't working.

    The list of available music is shorter, for a start, so I don't know where it's all gone. But even the songs that are there won't play. When I push play, it just skips past as if there's no file to read. And then the same for the next song and the next.... It won't play any song in the list.
    What's going on and how do I fix it?

    With a new device you need to apply some sync settings as in your case it would be music. The link below can provide you with some info on this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
    Once sync settings have been applied your iPhone should sync data automatically based on the settings that have been applied.
    Hope this helps
