Welcome to the Apple community.
If you have been previously using iCloud with your old phone, then when you login to your iCloud account with your new phone all the data from the services you were using will be added to your new phone.

I'm trying to update my iphone 4 and in order to compelte the restore backup from itunes i need to turn off the 'find my iphone' but i cant get passed the restore backup stage - what should i do?
Hi beckiewinter!
I have some information for you that may help you understand your iPhone's Activation Lock more thoroughly:
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
So in order to update your iPhone, you may need to turn off Find My iPhone. This can be done through the iCloud settings, and more information on those settings can be found right here:
iCloud - iPhone User Guide

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

I have an iPhone 5 and have just set up the iCloud for it. I also have an iPad with different content and I also want to connect it to iCloud. Will I lose everything that's on my iPad or iPhone or do they sync together without losing anything?
The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

I have an iphone 4 and iphone 5 and i have set up the 5 with a backup from the icloud. But i didn't disconnect the old phone (iphone 4) form the icloud and deleted some contacts which also deleted them from the 5. I have restored them from a previous back up but after i did that i deleted the iphone 4 from the icloud which also deleted the conatcts from the 5 again as i didnt back up. Is there anyway of restoring the conatcts now?
If you still have the same back up you can restore from back up again. Unfortunately you will have to do something fast and unusual in the process of restore. As soon as you have access to your phone - you need to go to settings - icloud and turn off your contacts sync. You need to do that fast enough so your icloud will not have time to sync "0" contacts back to the phone. That way when your restore is completed you get your contacts. You will have less then 1 minute to complete what I told you. If the contacts are gone anyway, either you were not fast enough, or your back up was overwritten already.

whem installing itunes on my mums new computer which is windows 7 i get this message everytime "this installation package could not be opened. Verifiy that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"
Let's check your Windows system.
1. Have you done all the important windows updates and service Packs on your system. If not do it now. START button, type in Windows Update and ENTER. Select 'CHECK FOR UPDATES'
2. Let's check your Windows system files for possible file corruption
SCAN and repair possible Windows system file corruption:
Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
type in
sfc /scannow
let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
3. Check your system for possible Malware. But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
To start your computer in safe mode
Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally. -
While installing itunes i am getting error "this installation package could not be opened.verify that the package exists and that you can access it,or contact the appliacation vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
I am trying to update my iTunes so I can sync my new iphone 5s and it doesn't recognize the phone, apple support said I need to update my iTunes when I try and do that I get an error message that says " the ITunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your internet connection or try back later.
My internet works fine and I have tried back dozens of times with same result.Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
Thanks! -
I have just reset my my iPhone 4s and it is stuck on the apple screen, not being recognised by iTunes and fully charged, any ideas how to get it to turn on properly?
Hi Cjroyle,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that your iPhone will not boot past the Apple logo on the screen. To troubleshoot this issue I'd like you to please follow the steps in the article below.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Take care,

why do i constantly get cut off on calls. I've had this problem with my 3GS, my 4S and now my iPhone 5. When the core functionality is Phone, i.e. the ability to talk, why can't Apple make the iPhone function as a Phone? is there an App for that !!
Well, since you've had the same problem, with three different phones, that all use different size sim cards, it seems pretty obvious the problem is with your carrier/coverage & nothing to do with your phone or sim card.

When iPhone locked and restored through sync with iTunes do you lose everything on the phone
When iPhone locked and restored through sync with iTunes do you lose everything on the phone
Hello Jamiem75
If you have to restore, yes everything will be erased from your iPhone. If you have a backup, you can put that backup after the restore.
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

I've lost my iphone 4S and i didn't active the Icloud so what can i do to find it
i’ve lost my iphone 4S and i didn't active the Icloud so what can i do to find it ?
Look where you think you left it. Report the loss to the police. The Find My iPhone thing only works if you activated it before losing it, and even then only under specific conditions.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17869845 - stolen iPhone
Apple - iPhone 4S - Locate your missing iPhone with Find My iPhone - http://www.apple.com/iphone/built-in-apps/find-my-iphone.html
Note that these features require you have the "Find My" activated before you lose the device, the device be turned on and able to connect to a registered wifi connection (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) or data network (iPhone, iPad), and not having been restored by a finder of the device (if it was really stolen then the thief has probably restored it). If you have activated the "Find My" feature, go to https://www.icloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8 -
My aunt recently upgraded her software to ios 6 and lost all of her contacts. However, when I updated my software this did NOT happen. She hasn't backed up to iCloud, so does anyone know of a way to restore her contacts without the iCloud?
Her contacts would be wherever she put them
The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer or cloud service regularly. If she failed to do this, then they are likely gone. -
I did the 7.1.1 update on both my iPhone 5s and on my iPad. The calendar on the Iphone no longer shows me a list of upcoming/past events. I still can get this info on my iPad though. Can anyone tell me how to turn this feature back on so I get get the list using my iPhone?
Tap on a Day to put it in Day view then tap the icon on the top right that looks like three dots with lines after them.
