My new iphoone 4s only picks up my ipad back up not my iphone 4

My new iphone 4s only picks up icloud back up for my ipad not my iphone 4.

Go to iTunes Settings, on the Devices tab you will see a list of all available backups.  If you don't see the one you're looking for there it doesn't exist to restore your phone to it.  Also, if you want to prevent iTunes from syncing automatically you can check "Prevent...from syncing automatically" on the Devices preferences screen.
If you do see the backup you are trying to restore to listed here, you should be able to right-click on the name of your phone and select it to restore from.  When you right-click on your phone you should see these choices, where "iPhone" is the name of your phone:

  • "New in iTunes" newsletter contents received in iPad email will not produce sound.  Any ideas as to why?  If I go into the iTunes program, I get sound without any problem.

    Amazing! I'm a dance instructor and am doing the exact same thing as you - and not seeing what I need on my iPad Air ... I can't believe there has been no reply on this! I also can't believe there isn't an easy way of seeing track info in the iPad or iPhone but I've spent hours searching and am not finding anything

  • Can I use Google Sync to transfer only my contacts from my IPhone 4 to my gmail acct? I don't want to sync info from Gmail to the IPhone. Can the sync work only one-way? I have 0 contacts on my gmail as I'll only use it as a back-up 4 my IPhone contacts.

I have 0 contacts & 0 calendar events on my gmail account. I opened the Gmail account specifically to for the Google Sync and wil only be using this account as a back-up for my IPhone contacts. Please Help!!

    You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
    Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

  • Two Itunes accounts, but the PC only picks up the old one. Not the new Icloud account? How do we do this?

    We created an Itunes account in the cloud for my daughters Ipod touch. However she already had an itunes account and now the PC will only see the original itunes. How do I sign into the new account to upload music from CD etc and create a new library?

    If you can't remember the password for the ID, and no longer have access to the email account associated with the ID to reset it, try contacting iTunes Store support: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.  They frequently deal with Apple ID password issues.

  • Can't get iphone4S to take my new email address.  My compter and ipad have it but the iphone keeps the old address.

    Haven't found the way to change my email (ID) on the iPhone even though the computer and ipad have it.

    Hi Have you change this at Apple .com/ support/I'd Try this Sign out of ITunes then Sign back in with new details on iphone. Cheers Brian

  • Airplay dropouts - only on some tracks in iTunes and not from iPhone

    Hi
    I experience heavy Airplay dropouts on certain tracks in my collection. And when I play the exact same track from my iPhone4 there is no problem. So I expect it to be an issue with iTunes and not a network bandwidth issue.
    What I noticed is that it occur more often on tracks with a high bitrate than on tracks with low bitrate - but not always. Almost all my tracks is 320 kbps mp3.
    However I've also experienced the problem on AAC tracks purchased from iTunes Store.
    And finally some podcasts play completely without any dropout, and others drop out after a few seconds.
    The above scenarios are easy reproduceable, and I think it might be an iTunes time specific problem when decoding the file and filling the airplay buffer.
    I don't think it's a general computer resource problem, as the max CPU usage is approximately 2-3% and 0-1% most of the time. There is also plenty of memory available.
    Are anybody else experiencing the same problem? Or maybe has a solution for the problem?
    Laptop facts:
    Dell E6510
    CPU Intel core I7
    Windows 7 64 bit.
    iTunes 10.2.0.34

    Have just tried Airfoil and then there is no problem. So it must be an iTunes issue...

  • How to create a new PDF consisting only of the cropped area?

    Hi,
    Is there a way to crop a PDF via javascript in such a way that the new MediaBox contains only the cropped material, where the lower left corner is also located at 0,0? setPageBoxes("Media",...) to match the CropBox doesn’t seem to do it.
    What I need is a scripted method to get around a problem with Acrobat X’s pixel-based compare documents function.  If I crop to trim in both documents for example, it seems to be able to pick out the areas to compare alright, but the annotations that mark any differences are located incorrectly—as if the comparison is performed under one coordinate system and the annotation is handled via another.
    There are ways around this outside of scripting. For example, pdfToolBox5 has a “Set MediaBox to origin” fixup that seems to do the trick, but I’m looking for a scripted method. So far, the only way that I’ve been able to get around the misplaced annotations problem is to export a postscript file after cropping, distill that, and then compare.
    Thanks for any help on this.
    Larry

    What is the result of running this code from  the console window:
    this.setPageBoxes("Media",this.pageNum,this.pageNum,this.getPageBox("Crop",this.pageNum));
    this.getPageBox("Media",this.pageNum);
    is the new Media Box the same as the Crop?  It should be.

  • My ipod classic is connected to a new computer, but only sync 241 songs, out 1825.  How can I fix this?

    My ipod classic (80 GB, from 2006) is connected to a new computer, but only sync 241 songs, out 1825.  I have restored several times.  How can I fix this?  my old computer is damaged and the new one run on Windows 8.

    I ran into this same problem earlier with my new iPod classic 160 gb. Turns out it could be your files show in iTunes but they aren't connected to the location those music tracks are actually located.
    Does this make any sense?
    You basically have to make sure iTunes is picking your songs from the right music folder via your preferences.
    Option 1: If your iTunes is completely wiped blank and your music is stored in a safe place, backed up, etc. You can do the following:
    Step A. Preferences > iTunes Media Folder Location > choose folder
    **** please be sure to pick a location that is new or different from where you ACTUALLY stored your music to prevent your files from deleting itself as it updates****
    For example, if you stored your music on your Desktop then you wouldn't choose your music folder to be the one in Desktop. You choose the folder where you want your music to go such as C:\My Music or in Mac, you choose the music folder.
    Step B. Once you choose the folder where all your music is stored and you check the box that says "Keep iTunes Media Folder organized" and "Copy Files to iTunes Media when adding to library."
    Step C. This is the part that will make sense. Drag the folder on desktop that houses all your music into iTunes. Because you checked the box "Copy Files to iTunes Media when adding to library," iTunes will copy all the backup music you dragged into the folder location you designated it in "Preferences > iTunes Media Folder Location > choose folder."
    ---- once all that is done, your itunes will have ALL your music tracks linked to the right location on your computer and your iPod will sync with as many or all of the music you desire.
    Hope this helps.

  • I can't open iTunes on my brand new Mac!I am getting the message that I am exceeding my limit of 5 computers! Huh, I only have two desktops and two laptops (not counting my new MacBook Pro). I do have an old (discarded) laptop that had iTunes! Help!!

    Hi! I have a new MacBook Pro, but I haven't been able to put iTunes on it even though I have used it for years on my iPhone, iPad, and two Windows desktops and two Windows laptops. I keep getting the message that "I am exceeding my iTunes account limit of 5 computers (not counting my iPhone and iPad, which are explicitly excluded from the count according to the message)". As anyone can see, I only have 4 computers, so I should not have any problems with installing iTunes, but this same message says that I need to deauthorize at least one computer or maybe I have extra authorizations on a computer.
    I can't even find a list or map of the computers on my iTunes account! Please, somebody help ASAP!!!!! Thanks!!!!!

    Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?
