Restore backup to iPhone 4S from iPhone 4 backup but apps are missing now.
I backup my iPhone 4. Then I setup my new iPhone 4S by selecting Restore from backup and selecting the backup of the iPhone 4 that I just did. When it is all complete, most of my apps that were in stalled on the iPhone 4 are not on my iPhone 4S. A few of the custom folders are there with only one of two of my downloaded apps but most are nowhere to be seen. I have rebacked up the iPhone 4 (which I confirmed still has all the folders and apps) and repeated the restore process but it turns out the same each time. Any tips? Thanks,
Marc
Figured it out. "Synch apps" was unchecked in iTunes.

I restored my safari bookmark playlist from time machine.But it again missing after sometime.Again I restored the same thing happns again.plz help
Triple-click the text on the line below to the clipboard, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
Quit Safari.
Select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
A folder window should open with a file named "Bookmarks.plist" selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the folder open.
Relaunch Safari. It will open with the default set of bookmarks. Delete them all. Select
File ▹ Import Bookmarks
from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Arrange the bookmark folders as you wish.
If Safari now performs normally, you can delete the old bookmarks file. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put back the file you moved, replacing the newer one with the same name. Close the Finder window and post again. -
Restoring MBP with Time Machine but apps are missing
Hi,
I have multiple problems, so I'll keep it brief.
RAM failed on my early 08 MBP. It corrupted the parttion thing and wiped my HDD. Nice.
Apple replaced RAM & HDD under warranty.
Have data backed up using Time Machine, but not the apps (I thought I was saving space that way, big mistake).
Restored from scratch using install disks + Time Machine but I have very few apps now, i,e. no Address book, Mail, Calendar etc, i.e. the important stuff.
Is there a way I can cherry pick those apps from somewhere to reinstall them while retaining my data on the MBP?
Or do I have to start over, do a clean install using disks and then cherry pick my data off the TM backup?
Oh, an the **** install disk is now stuck in the thing. Ggggrrrrr. Assuming I can get that out, what's the best course of action?
Thanks very much in advance.That's the weird thing, Although the install disks have the logos of iChat, Mal etc on the initial screen, once you click continue and go through it, even using the 'custom' options, the onyl apps on my disks are: upgrades to iMovie, iPhoto, GarageBand & iDVD plus iWeb. No Mail, Address Book etc.
Anyone else had this experience? -
When I restore my iphone, all my music and ring tone are missing. Does Backing up by iphone backup my music and ring tone?
It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over. -

I'm trying to set up my new iPhone 5s from a backup of my previous iPhone, when trying to enter my Facebook login info in settings I keep getting the following error message : error signing in could not communicate with server, please help !
Can you access other apps? Can you acess the internet? Can you access applications that use internet besides facebook?

hi,
i wanted to resize my windows partition. I was thinking of using the default backup system for windows. Then switching to mac partion, deleting the bootcamp and then restoring a new enlarged partition from the backup. Is this possible?I see youhave gotten recommendatons for using WinClone or CampTune. I have used both and they both work well.
You have asked about using the WIndows 7 utility to backup your drive and restor it onto a larger partition. I will tell you fro experience that this will probably not do what you want, and may do something that you don't want. You can use the Windows 7 native backup tool to make a backup of your Windows 7 partition. It will most liekly end-up making a dive image of the whole drive. When yourestore that backup, it will try to re-create teh partitions of exactly the same size as they were when the backup was taken, so it won't increase your partition size for you. Worse, since Windows doesn't natively know how to read./write HFS+ volumes, the backup will make a partition for your MacOS (replacing any you may have now), except that the copy restored by WIndows will be totally worthless, and you will not be able to boot MacOS from it, or even read it under MacOS.
Now I will tell you that I've also had some fairly good success working with the free tool CloneZilla. Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, and everything else mentioned does cost you money, I thought I would throw it out. CloneZilla is not as easy to use as the tools mentioned, but it has worked for me int hte past, so it is something to consider. I tend to use CampTune myself, but that was because I purchased a bundle deal for them and it was included in that deal. -
ive restored my new iphone 5 from iphone 4 but the apps have not moved to my new iphone 5. how do i transfer them?
If you connect and select iP5 in computer iTunes, in Apps tab, make sure the apps you want are checked before you sync.
Or on iPhone > App Store > Updates > Purchases > tap the app icon to re-download them. -
Hi...
Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost ONLY my email and app data? But weird thing is, its still on my old phone!!!
Do you know why and how I can fix this?
ShelleyHow did you "try" to transfer this data? The only way to restore App data is by restoring from a backup that contains the App data, then syncing the Apps back to the phone. Emails are not included in any iPhone backup, only account settings.

Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you -
I've updated my iphone 3gs from iOS 5 to iOS 6 and now I can't access the internet on 3g, can anybody help??
I don't follow your instructions... mine goes Settings->General->Cellular and from there it's just on/off options for Cellular Data, Enable 3G, Data Roaming, etc. Or I could go Settings->General->Profile APN Carrier Settings but when I click that it just shows as verified but no Visual Voice APN or MMS Settings. If I click More Details it goes to Signing Certificate which has a bunch of parameters for unlockit.co.nz but I am unable to change anything.
I just updated my iphone 3GS to IOS 6 and my internet (wifi and 3G), voice and text all work, but the only thing I can't do is send/receive pictures via text message. I am using At&t prepaid sim. I tried turning off the phone completely but I'm trying to avoid a complete restore.. at least until I can understand the problem better! Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you! -
Upgraded my phone to iphone 6 from iphone 4. My iTunes with all my music is on a computer that no longer works and can't access the music. Will iTunes Match allow me to get my music off of my iphone 4 and put it on my iphone 6? Sorry about copying twice, new to this.
Do you have iTunes match? You need a computer to manage an iTunes match library.

I have an iPhone 4 from another country but I want to connect it here in the USA what can I do
I have an iPhone 4 from another country but I want to connect it here in the USA what can I do
I wanted to do this only to find out i got screwed out of my money. There was litterally NOTHING i could do. I paid almost $300 for an expensive paperweight that i couldn't get service for anyway but in the country i bought it in.
I called Apple they said call the carrier i got the phone with. Called them they couldn't do anything. -
i have purchased sprint carrier iphone 4s from USA. But it cant unlock in nepal so how can i unlock it in nepal. Thanks for your kind information..
You will probably not be able to get it unlocked as you probably have to be an existing Sprint customer in order to get it unlocked. Contact them for more information.
If you cannot get it unlocked, sell it to someone who can use it on Sprint and buy an iPhone you can use in Nepal.
