New IPhone 4s imported history from computer

My son just got an IPhone 4s Friday. He conected it to Itunes though my computer. Today he found that it had imported all my favorites and bookmarks from my computer! How does he get that out of his phone? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi annielaurie,
I can help with your son's iPhone 4S. Your information is on his phone since the iTunes account is in your name. He would have to follow these steps:
-Sign out of your Apple ID http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1640
-Create his own Apple ID http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731
-Back up his phone data to the PC, so he does not lose anything. 
-Restore the iPhone http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 This will remove your information from the phone. 
-Sign in to his own iTunes account
-Sync the iPhone with his iTunes account
I hope this information is helpful for you and your son. Have a good day!

    Had 3G, moved to 3GS.  Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer.  But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything.  How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?

    Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me.  Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

  • Thanks this was very useful.. I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am having the same problem constant network fluctuations, no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/ba

    I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am experiencing constant network fluctuations on my iphone , no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/bars searching etc... Ifeel miserable after trying out all the options changed multiple sims, tried multiple carriers, restored the phone back and have set-up as new device but the problem does not get solved... its is so frustrating that after investing on a world's most expensive phone you cannot enjoy the calling features which the phone offers which is the main thing you own the phone for.. Rest of the things are working.. The funniest part I am not able to make calls or receive calls but can access the internet..  I have tried every possible thing and really very frustrated with this iphone of mine...I hope the problem gets solved.. would anyone have any solutions to this problem.. Does it mean one should never update software as I hear that after updating to IOS.5.1 the problem has started coming and same has been with there.... Apple says its a hardware failure which is very difficult to digest as sometimes I get 5 bars and able to make and receive calls but 95% of the time I am unable to. If anyone has any solution I will be very happy if he or share can share the same. Many thanks. its so disgusting to experience this on top of this apple does not support global warranty for the phone as you need to go to the country from where you bought the phone for replacement.. Truly sad state of affairs.. very very very dissappointing.

    Have a look at this it might help

    I just got an iphone 6. Not all of my music was on itunes, so I logged in and instead of clicking set up as new iphone I hit restore from backup, thinking it only pertained to the music in itunes. Now my new iphone looks just like my old iphone and has iphone 5 settings. How can I undo and get back to iphone 6 settings?

I am able to sync and import music, documents, videos etc. but when attempting to sync pictures I am faced with a sign that says loading sync relationships or it says sync currently not available. All the instructions on the internet demonstrate a different blackberry link to the one I have, I have the newest version of blackberry link. I want to know how to import photos from computer on to my phone. Thanks x

  • Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.

    Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

  • How import pictures from Computer To itunes??

    How import pictures from Computer To itunes??

    I'd like to add some personal photos to my iTunes account, library...WHATEVER!...so that I can attempt to use them as screensaver pics for my Apple TV component. Screensaver takes to the screen while playing music from my iTunes library that displays on the TV screen. Understandable....but if I can transfer some of my personal photos into my iTunes library/account...whatever...I'm sure there's a way to use them on my screensaver, rather than looking at friggin' ducks, fish, and trees, etc. seems like a simple and obvious concept to me! How do I do it?

  • How do I retreive my old pictures that I took on my new Iphone before synching with my computer?   I entered sync with my old iphone instead of my new one!

    How do I retrieve the photos taken on my new Iphone after syncing with my computer.  I entered sync with my old Iphone instead of sync with new one. 

    Certain "lines" in my touch screen would not work... the "send" button on the touch screen would not send, then the "slide to unlock" button would work sometimes and not at others... and if i tried to force certain actions by double clicking or screen shots, the entire screen would start to "gitter" and dance back and forth.... then some times it would select a command and continue to do it over and over and over again without my touching the screen at all.

  • How can I import history from old computer

    I have just bought a new computer and want to have the tab history from my old computer. How do I do this?

    Yes, that location is not the Firefox profile folder, but the location of the template folder with the files to create a new new profile.
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    * "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
    Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders"<br />
    To see the file extensions of all files uncheck the box "Hide extensions for known file types"
    * XP: C:\Documents and Settings\&lt;user&gt;\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\&lt;profile&gt;\
    * Vista/Windows 7: C:\Users\&lt;user&gt;\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\&lt;profile&gt;\

  • Can't import songs from computer to itunes!

    I am unable to add music files to my itunes library. If I click the 'add file to folder', i get the message that the file is not in the wma format and will be converted by itunes. but nothing happens, and the file isn't added. i've alternatively tried dragging files into itunes, but i just cannot seem to add music to my itunes library unless by importing using audio cds.
    Most of the songs are ones I have saved in my music folder, or else burned from a cd onto a different computer and i've saved them onto this computer. but itunes wont recognize them. thanks for your help!

    On the new laptop, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

  • HT2953 New iphone music import problem

    I have a new iphone. My music synced from my computer to my iphone, but the majority of songs are grey on my phone and I can't play them. How do I fix this?

    I assume you have verified that the volume is turned up while they are plugged in? Otherwise, it sounds like a hardware issue.
