Sync icloud backup to my new phone?
I recently upgraded my 3gs to iphone 4s, and I wanted to sync the data from my old phone to my new phone. Is there a way i can directly sync the data from the 3gs backup in the iCloud to the new 4s? It would save me a lotta trouble.
Better to transfer data from iPhone to iPhone then setup iCloud.
iPhone: Transferring information from your current iPhone to a new iPhone
After you have transferred the data follow the instructions here > Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.

Trying to choose iCloud backup on my new phone as I lost my previous one but it states"no iCloud backups are compatible with this version" therefore I can't set up my replacement phone! Any suggestions
You can't restore a backup that was made on a device running a more recent version of iOS. If your replacement phone is running iOS 6.0.1 and the one you backed up was running 6.1.2, for example, you would have to update your replacement phone before you could restore to the backup. If this is the case, update your phone by connecting it to your computer, and selecting Check for Update or Update on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings, update the phone and set it up as New. Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens again and choose Restore from iCloud Backup. You should then be able to restore your backup.

How to restore iCloud backups on a new phone?
The only way to access iCloud backups is to Erase all content and settings, go thru the setup assistant, and when prompted to restore from iCloud backup - choose that option.

I Have just bought an iPhone 6 and want to restore my iPhone 4s via iCloud backup to the new iPhone 6. The setup of the iPhone 6 halted because according to the new phone it has iOS 8.1.2 whereas the backups were stored using iOS 8.2 following my updating of the iPhone 4S recently. How do I jump through this hoop? How do I update the new phone to iOS 8.2 without serring it up first? Anyone, please help?
Update the new phone to the same version that has been used to create the backup. In your case, the new device has to run 8.2 to be able to use the backup made with the other device.
Setting it back to factory settings will install the newest version and after that you can use the backup made under 8.2

If you mean how do you sign into your iCloud account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your iCloud ID and password.

They told me that they would let if finish when I traded in my old phone. I want to restore it to new phone. Even if it didn't complete how to I restore the 5 g that did backup
Unfortunately you can't restore an incomplete backup.

I got a new iphone 6. When I restore my phone from my icloud backup my most recent photos and messages not restored from icloud backup. How do I get the most recent backup onto my new phone?
Hello, Anita.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are wanting to restore your new iPhone 6 from an iPhone 5 backup. This sounds like the iOS version of your old iPhone 5 may be newer than what was installed on your iPhone 6. Try going through the steps in the article below.
iOS: Unable to restore from backup of a newer device
I would also check to see the backup dates in iTunes and if the backup is located on iCloud instead of iTunes.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes
Cheers,

After restoring from backup on a new phone (same model, just replacement) all my apps are showing as waiting....I have sync'd but still without any joy - this has been going on for hours
It just means some spammer is using your email address as the sender address for their spam. This is very easy to do - anyone can do it simply by changing the From email address in their email program. It does not mean your account was hacked or you have a virus (there are no current Mac viruses on the loose anyway, nor has there been for years).
There's nothing you can do about it. It can happen to anyone and the spammers will move on to using someone else's email address before long. -
Some months ago I changed my email address and so my appleID. Everything worked fine, but last week my ipad broke and when I tried to restore my icloud backup in my new ipad it does not work: it asks me for the password of the OLD appleID (it doesnt work); and in icloud configuration page the field for appleid is colored grey so I can not change it.
any clues? thank you in advanceMy suggestion is to change apple id back. I know it is not something you want to hear, but there are suppose to be ways around it and usually they work, but not right now. I suspect that is consequences of Apple getting their servers ready for ios7. Normally in your situation - you should be able to get all your stuff back, but apps, and then you can sync those or download from icloud. But lately (last week) it does not seem to work normal way.

I lost my iPhone. If I wipe the device will I be able to restore my old iCloud backups to my new iPhone when I get it?
Yes. It will only erase the phone, not any data or backups from icloud.com. If you think it was stolen, you might want to read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5668.

In between my new iPhone and a old one, I used a replacement iPhone. On the replacement phone there were two backups created. I have a new iPhone now, but only the 2 old backups from my replancement phone. How do I get a older backup on my new phone?
Not sure where you backup to.
ITunes keeps the latest backup only.
Icloud keeps the 3 last backup. -
I need to install my back up iCloud info onto a new phone with the same sim in and then erase old phone from my account. How can I do this?
When you setup the new phone restore it from the iCloud backup from your old phone.
Then, on your old phone, use Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. -
