Taking over an old iphone
taking over an old iPhone 4 , No contract Verison, need to unlock the CDMA or if possible ???
CDMA cannot be unlocked.
Only GSM devices can be unlocked.
If this is a Verizon iPhone, it can be unlocked (may already be unlocked) for GSM carriers outside the US. It cannot be used with US carriers.

Issues with new bill payer taking over from old bi...
Hello,
The old bill payer has moved out of my shared flat and I have taken over as bill payer. Two weeks ago I rang BT and signed up for a new contract. Last week I rang again to say that I was leaving BT and spoke to the 'retentions team' who negocitated a cheaper contract for me. So, I signed up for new a 12 month contract with BT.
I would like to know what information is connected to our account because the OLD bill payer has recieved confirmation emails (which should have been sent to me). He has cancelled the old direct debit and now the NEW contract is being threateneed to be cut off. The NEW contract still has the old bill payers name and should have my name instead. I have not been sent any confirmation letters with any account numbers or details of my bill breakdown and I have not been sent any forms to set up a new direct debit.
The people at the call centres do not understand my problem. They have corrected the account to have my contact email address but addressing me as the old bill payer. I am completely confused and would like to know what is going on!I understand that a new bill payer has to take out a new account (I googled the problem). I explained to the people in the call center what was going on and said that I needed to take out a new contract. It appears that ithe people in the call centre have made a huge mistake and I dont know what to do about it
No security questions were asked, my housemate has not rang them once (and I am female and he is male!), I dont know the account number so theyre doing it all from the phone number. I could have been anyone.
I think I am still within the 14 day cooling off period from when I phoned customer retentions, so Im highly tempted to call them back and change providers completely because this is a nightmare!
I also cant believe that a proceedure for this isnt in place (close old account, start new account) - there are so many shared houses in London! -
I had an iPhone 4 and recently upgraded to iphone5 now iCloud will not back up new phone. Under iCloud it shows 2 iPhones and my iPad. Is it trying to write new phone over the old one? What should I do? I am afraid I might lose everything messing with
I see. If you go to Settings>General>About>Name, that is the current name of your phone. The backup bearing that name should be the more recent one, and therefore the one you want to keep. I would delete the other one (presumably the one set up by Best Buy under your real name, assuming you changed it later), then see if that gives you enough space to back up again.
If it still reporting insufficient storage, use this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4847 to try to determine what's taking up all your room. In them meantime, you can perform a manual backup on your computer so your have a current one while you're troubleshooting this. To do so, connect your phone to iTunes, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left side and select Back Up. -
When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?
You cannot merge Apple IDs but you can go to Settings > iCloud and 'Delete Account'. When prompted to turn off documents and data, choose the only option which is Delete from my iPhone, but on the other prompt for Contacts, Calendars, etc you can choose 'Keep on my iPhone' Then once the Account is Deleted form the iPhone, log back in with the correct Apple ID and choose Merge when prompted. This will merge your data from this iPhone with that iCloud account effectively putting your devices on the same account.

I recently upgraded to an iPhone 5 and I have this synced with my previous iCloud account. My problem is my old iPhone 4 is taking up 2.5 GB of space in the cloud. Is there a way to delete this iphone from the icloud so I can free up space as it is not needed anymore?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage...... -

An iphone app dealer keeps taking over my phone.
King.com Unlimited keeps forcing my iPhone to go to its Apple app-store app[s] page[s].They have several 'games' where they later persuade you to buy other features for their games.
How in heck can I prevent this ???? Is there a way to block it? Is my iPhone infected ?
I've never tried nor installed any of their games and am sick and tired of them taking over my phone, randomly, and frequently.
I can get off the page, but I'm seeing this/these pagepages far too mny times.If it helps, my iSO is 7.1.1
It is an action from two events
1. using the kissanime streaming site. [which I can understand]
2. happens even when I'm not using the site. [but not as often, yet]
In the first case, I sometimes get an iPhone pop-up that asks me if I want to open the app page. it reads more like something wants to open an app page, do you agree ? More exactly like the pop-up says something can't open to the app store page, will I allow it?
I'll do a capture of it later and be more exact.
The times it just pops me over there when I'm not on that site nor using the browser are completely unexpected.
What I would prefer is that any such action acting upon my phone -always- asks the user if he/she/I will allow it.
It seems to be neccessary to prevent what I will think of as 'slimeware' forcing the iPhone to go to their app-store pages.
Since that requestor happens sometime, there should be a way to have it always be active; even if it requires an iSO update to have it be so. If I could make it always be active, I would consider the problem to be solved. -

I didn't back up my old iPhone when I got a new one. If I put my SIM card in my old iPhone and backup everything, will it transfer over to my new one?
Just back it up to your computer using iTunes By connecting it to your compute, launching iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Back Up (transfer purchases of prompted). Then restore the iTunes backup to your new phone.

Help! I just bought a new computer and am trying to get the songs from my iphone to itunes on the computer. My old computer that had all of origional songs on itunes crashed so all I have is my old iphone. How do I get the songs to go into my itunes library. I would like to purchase a new iphone and plan to load the songs on it after I can figure this out? Please Help?
Restore them to the new computer using the bakcup of the old one. If you don't have a backup of the old computer, you can re-download music purchased from the iTunes store. If they were imported from CD's, etc. You will either have to re-rip them or purchase third party software to extract them from the phone. The iPhone is not a backup or data transfer device.

Other section taking over 7 gb on iPhone 4s
When I plugged in my phone to my new laptop I was shocked to see that "others" is taking up 7.4 gb of th 13 gb I have avaliable. I have tried everything that has already been suggested (restore, sync, delete apps etc.) but it simply made the category increase. Can someone please help me because it is taking over half of what I have to use with.
If I restore it as new do I have to go in my carrier's store to get it activated and all that?

Restoring music from my old iPhone 5 backup to a new iPhone 6
I've just got an iPhone 6 with 64GB memory to replace my old iPhone 5 (with the same 64GB memory). I took a full backup of my iPhone 5 before buying the new 6, and both are using the same iOS 8.0.2 version. My apps are all restored just fine, whether I try a restore from iCloud or my local computer (a MacBook Pro running 10.9.5 and iTunes 11.4 (18). But my music just doesn't get put on the new phone, no matter what I try.
I have a music library of around 4000 songs taking up 19.8GB of space on my old phone. If I restore from iCloud, it only downloads songs I have bought from the iTunes music store. If I restore from my local backup on iTunes, it copies around 1000 songs before crashing (done twice so far) - and when I try and sync again it halts at 'preparing to copy items' and happily does nothing for hours on end (left it overnight last night, no discernible difference in terms of the amount of music on the phone).
I'm trying exactly the same method of restoring from my local backup that I used a few months ago after I had to get my iPhone 5 repaired by Apple. But nothing seems to be working. I can use iTunes match (which I have on my computer, but never used on my iPhone 5), but then I have to download all the songs via the internet that I could just sync a lot faster over my local wifi connection.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to restore the music on it?Correction: the message that iTunes hangs at for hours on end was "Waiting for changes to be applied".

Manual focus option exist in old iPhone 4S?
Hello.
Does manual focus option exist in an old iPhone 4S with iOS v8.3? I don't see it?
Thank you in advance.This was over a year and a half ago, but just thought I'd reply with what ended up "fixing" the problem...
essentially, nothing. Took the phone back to AT&T two days after picking it up and they said "can't do anything, that's an Apple problem". Urghh, the contract said there was a 30 day return policy. WHAT. EVER.
Long story short, he ends up taking the phone to the Apple store and basically ends up getting a new phone.
