New iphone smaller capacity than older one

Got new iphone: capacity less than old iphone.  I want to only transfer some information, not all (old iphone 32 GB, 5 GB available; new iphone 16 GB).  How do I do this?

Sync the data to your new phone. I suspect you won't be able to restore the backup of your old phone to your new phone, & the restore from backup process is all or nothing.

  • I'm trying to upload the new itunes version because The older one doesnt match with the iphone 5. At one step it is required one code to allow the installation but as It is not the itunes code which one is it ?

    Hello, GwladysPa. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I believe that the iTunes update is requesting your computer's administrator password to update the application.  Here is the article that explains this process.

    I recently created a new apple ID
    Bad idea.
    Content bought with an Apple ID is forever associated with that Apple ID. Apple will not transfer content from one Apple ID to another and Apple will not merge Apple IDs. Unless you are prepared to forfeit all the previously purchased content and buy it all again with the new Apple ID, you will need to maintain the old ID to update and redownload your content.

  • I have over 16,000 songs in my iTunes library so I manually manage the music on all my devices. I bought a new iPod to replace an older one. I'd like to transfer all 900 songs to my new device without having to handpick each song. Is there a way to do it?

    No. I have quite a few more 16,000, so I don't manually manage. Making playlists for each device makes things much easier to organize. You can create regular lists of essential tracks and smart playlists to automatically catch new content, top rated, most played etc. If you'd done it this way all along configuring a new or restored device would be the work of moments.

    Delete iCloud in Settings > iCloud > Delete Account
    Finally Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.

  • I just purchased a new iMac to replace our older one We are giving our older one to parents and want to wipe the HD. The discs I have for my old iMac is for version 10.5 but I have 10.6.8 currently. Is there a way to wipe the HD and keep 10.6.8?

    No. Wiping the HD will erase the OS on it.

  • I just bought an ipad2 which I luv. I want 2 use my cell as a hotspot in some places. Do I need 2 have a new iPhone, or will the older model work just as well?

    I just bought an ipad2 which I love. I want to use my cell as a hotspot, but do not have iPhone. A friend is willing 2 give me an older one. With the right data plan, will it work as well as The newer iPhones? The older phone will save me money by avoiding long cell service contract.

    Any phone that generates a hopspot will work, as long as you have a plan that supports tethering.  Doesnt need to be an i phone. 

  • I have purchased a new iPhone on an upgrade from one of my family plan numbers, how do I activate it to use with another number on my account

    I purchased a new iPhone through upgrading one of the phones on my att family plan. when I receive the phone how do i switch it to another phone number on my plan I want to use it with?

    I have a friend who does this every year. He just brings both phones into his AT&T store and they swap the numbers for him. Pretty painless process, as long as they are not too busy (i.e. iPhone lauch day)

  • How do I sync my new Iphone 4s to an older version of itunes

    I just recently purchased the new iphone 4s and I still am operating the Mac OS X 10.4 and I can't figure out why my ringtones or movies are not syncing with my phone.

    Syncing requirements for the iPhone 4s

    Mac: OS X v10.5.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.5 or later (free download fromwww.itunes.com/download

  • I just got a new IPhone 4S as my other one broke, I'm now trying to restore it but it keeps saying "error"

    I went all the way to Brighton to change over my phone and now the new IPhone 4S won't restore! I've tried to restore it multiple times but it keeps coming back with "error". I'm about to go crazy

    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

  • How can I store my iTunes library on my new iPhone 6 rather than access it remotely through iCloud?

    My old iPhone actually stored my iTunes music library so I could play it on my sonos system. the new iPhone 6 stores it remotely on iCloud which is not supported by sonos. Means I can only use my iPhone to control my music through my iMac meaning it has to be on all the time- a real pain!
    Any help to overcome this would be brilliant

  • New Macbook Pro slower than old one.

    I recently got a new Macbook Pro, unibody, with 2.8 Ghz core 2 duo and 4 GB Ram. I am upgrading from a Macbook Pro with the previous body design, that is 2.5 Ghz core 2 duo and came with 2GB RAM but I upgraded to 4GB myself.
    I got the new MBP, migrated some applications and my settings. Now when I start Firefox I sometimes get the spinning beach ball for a few moments before my homepage loads. Also for example, if I have 2 tabs open, with one playing a youtube video in the background and I'm browsing in the other, the video will stutter and I'll get the beach ball for a few moments when I try to go to another page. This happens no matter what browser I try (Firefox, Safari, Camino). And it never happens on my older MBP, it's a little annoying that a system that is 2 years older seems to perform better.
    Any ideas or tips?

    You might want to check that you have selected a startup disk as "Macintosh HD" so the OS x knows where to boot from. If there is no selection under startup items in System Preferences then boot up is delayed by a few seconds as OS X would look for a functional startup disk.
    Check and see if this works for you in bringing down boot times.
    PS> Also check what login items you have in the lisr under Account.

  • Original ADC 22" Cinema Display Works w/new MBP, doesn't with older one

    I have two MacBook Pros. One is from late 2007. Core 2 Duo, max 3 gigs of RAM, non-unibody. The second is from late 2009. Unibody, max 8 gigs RAM, etc.
    I also have two Apple Cinema Displays. One is 22", ADC. The other is 23", also ADC. I have ADC->DVI adaptors for both.
    When I plug either of the two MBPs into my 23" display, it works perfectly. Auto-detects, screen flashes and resizes and wiggles a bit and everything just works exactly as expected.
    When I plug the newer (2009) MacBook Pro into the 22" display, it also works perfectly.
    When I plug the older (2007) MacBook Pro into the 22" display, nothing happens. No flicker, no screen shift, no work. No lines written to the system.log file, no indication that the laptop even notices that it's plugged in.
    Here is a list of troubleshooting steps I have tried. (Please don't ask me to try any of these.)
    * As noted above, I tried the 22" display with the newer laptop. Works fine.
    * As noted above, I tried the 23" display with the older laptop. Works fine.
    * Tried plugging the display into the laptop while the laptop was off, then turning it on.
    * Tried plugging the display into the laptop while laptop was asleep, then waking it.
    * Tried plugging the display into the laptop while laptop was awake.
    * Tried pushing the display power button while it was plugged into the laptop.
    * Tried the 'detect displays' button in the System Preferences.
    * Tried zapping the PRAM
    * Tried resetting the power management unit.
    * Tried unplugging/replugging display power while connected to the laptop.
    * Tried swapping the two power (ADC->DVI) adaptors.
    (The problem follows the LCD, not the adaptor.) Also, just to add to the mix, I have tried plugging ANOTHER vintage 2007 MacBook Pro into this 22" display, and it also displayed the same symptoms: absolutely did not recognize the display, no matter what I did.
    I find this really baffling. Why (HOW?) would the original Apple Cinema Display be incompatible with the 2007 MacBook Pro? Or what defect would make the Cinema Display not work with the 2007 MacBook Pro, but work fine with the 2009 MacBook Pro? The only difference I know of aside from a different video chip is the fact that the newer MBP requires an extra adaptor to get from DVI to the mini display port thingie.

    I wonder whether you've solved this problem. I have the same issue with my MBP. The 20" Apple Cinema Display is connected through an ADC/DVI converter to a DVI KVM switchbox. It works fine with my G5 tower, but ever since I installed Leopard, it doesn't work on the MBP (in fact, if I plug it in the computer crashes). It worked fine before. I brought the MBP to the Genius Bar, and it worked fine there connected to a regular DVI monitor.
