Tranferring sim from iPhone 5 to old iphone4 how???

MY new iPhone 5 had cracked screen one week after purchase. Now it's worse and not functional. Can I just reactivate my 4 and transfer data?

You would need a SIM adapter to be able to put the iPhone 5 SIM into the iPhone 4. That or contact your carrier and get a new SIM.

I have updated from IPhone 4 to Iphone 4S - how can I move my contacts from previous phone to IPhone 4S?

Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer, which is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Sync your iPhone 4S with the same address book app on your computer as you were syncing the iPhone 4 with.

HT5554 Can you cut your sim from iphone 4 to fit iphone5

Can you cut your sim from iphone 4 to fit iphone5

Yes, if you are careful. But why would you want to? Your carrier will give you a new SIM, probably for free, but if there is a charge it will be small.

Nano sim from iPhone interchangeable with new nano sims in Moto X and new Droids?

>> Duplicate post removed to comply with Verizon Wireless Terms of Service. See iPhone 5 nano sim can be used in Moto X- interchangeable? <<

Thank you!! I knew they were the same size, but I just called again to a different rep who said the same thing- they are not interchangeable (she said flat out that if I put the nano sim from my iPhone 5s into the Moto X it will not work or be able to activate)... She couldn't explain exactly why except that "Apple" nano sims are singular and don't work in other devices.
I hope you are right and wouldn't mind the voicemail thing as long as I could interchange them easily :)
Thanks again! I am wondering if anyone has tried it?

HT204053 how do you delete icloud from iphone my old email was hacked i don't have password?

how do you change your user name in i cloud on my iphone

You have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I bought a new iphone 5s and restored all files from my wifes old iphone4. at the old phone, there was an icloud account which was remained from previous owner(it was second hand). After restore, it came to my new phone and I can not remove it.

This operation has inherited where is my iphone option too. It should be selectable option but it came with restore.
I got crazy of this. I bought a new phone, wanted to bring data from other phone, but it brough icloud settings and even where is my iphone option as selected. What should I do?
I can go to the shop which I bought but I am not sure what they can do. Please guide me what to do. I have original invoice written for my name.

Syncing phone book/contacts from iphone 3GS to Iphone4

Hey,
I just got the iphone 4 - put in the smaller sim card required and am now wondering how do I transfer my phone book from my previous 3GS to the new sim card/phone.
My old computer crashed, and am using my laptop on which I just installed Itunes.

I believe the best way is to use iTunes to sync the contacts from your 3GS into a 3rd party program such as Outlook. Then, use iTunes to sync the contacts from Outlook to your new iPhone 4.

Copy sms only from iPhone 2G to iPhone4?

Hi folks,
first of all sorry for my bad english. I would like to know if anyone knows how to transfer my sms from my current iPhone 2G to my new iPhone4? I don't wanna do a total backup and sync-back, 'cause I would like to use my new one as maiden as it is.
Anyone?
Best,
JJ

Yes, there is a way of doing it without having to restore everything, and without any hacks. It will require a restore, but it will be a restore of your iPhone 4 with your iPhone 2G's text messages. (It should work across different phones, I've done it across different software versions on the same phone successfully).
(Note: this assumes you DON'T encrypt your iPhone backups)
First, go to (make sure you have show hidden files and folders turned on):
(if you are on a Mac) ~Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
(if you are on a PC) c:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
When you're there, work out which folder is your old iPhone. Then, find the file named
3d0d7e5fb2ce288813306e4d4636395e047a3d28
(the file extension will be either .mddata, .mdbackup or it will have no extension).
If at this point you want to check to ensure that this is the correct phone's SMS file, you can go to http://insend.de/ and download a copy as a PDF or Excel file to check the contents.
Once you're happy it's the right file, you need to copy it, and paste it into the backup folder of your new iPhone. Then head to iTunes, plug in your iPhone 4 and restore it from backup. All done!
EDIT: Sorry if I didn't make it clear - your iPhone 4 backup will now contain the text messages so restore it from its own backup. You won't lose any of your contacts, apps etc but you gain text messages.

Question about tranferring data from iPhone 3gs to iPhone 4

I just had a couple quick questions about transferring data from my old phone from my new iPhone 4. The reason i am wondering is because i am worried about whether i will encounter any problems when doing so.
First off i have already sold my phone today, i reset all data and settings from the phone and gave it to my buddy so its gone. I did a full sync and backup yesterday so all the necessary files should be on my computer(windows 7). Now, im basically wondering if i will run into any problems if i restore my iphone 4 from a backup. My 3gs was running 3.1.2 on att. Now i know IDEALLY i would have updated it to iOS 4 before backing it up and used the newest version of itunes, but i did not. Does anyone think this will be a problem for me?
Now with that out of the way, my biggest fear is losing my old data(text messages and notes mainly because i am a pack rat for those type of things) so id like to be SURE that none of my old backups will be deleted in any scenario. The reason i dont just restore it right now is because i want my new phone to be as clutter free as possible. I am going to be putting on here only the apps that i used often and would basically like to transfer over the BARE minimum; texts, notes, and highly used apps... So i guess my main question is can you transfer over only certain things like texts and notes after setting up the phone as a new phone. And if i were to set up the phone as a new phone what would happen to my old backups? Would i be able to selectively restore?
Im afraid that it might not be a possibility to transfer only certain things even though it should be.. i should be able to select a text messages folder and put it on my new phone and be done with it... But anyway i dont want to rant. Can anyone explain to me how this all will work?
ULTIMATE GOAL: Transfer only texts, notes, certain apps(and their data) and NOTHING ELSE.
MOST IMPORTANT THING: Not losing texts and notes. I can deal with putting all the old **** on my new phone and cluttering/slowing it down if i NEED to.
Thank you in advance, sorry for the long post.

If the most important thing for you is keeping old text messages, notes, and voicemail, then you'll need to sync the phone from your existing backup. I know of no other way to access those items.
Once you have synced to the new phone, check that you have those items that were important. Then you can reconnect your phone to iTunes, and change the sync settings to remove the apps or other items you no longer want to keep on the phone.
iPhone backups are stored by iTunes; you can see them by opening your iTunes preferences, clicking on "Devices" and then looking in the window. You can delete old backups from here. I don't know how you can open/read the backups though.
I don't expect you'd have any problems syncing from your old phone's backup, but it's definitely an either/or situation. Since you got rid of the old phone already, it's too late to email yourself your notes, or copy the text messages. Your previous backup is your only solution.

Move SMS texts from iphone 3g to Iphone4

Morning all. A nice delivery man has just brought me a shiney new Iphone4 which I would like to fill up with my old previous SMS text messages. The rest of the stuff I can sync without an issue. Is there any way of copying the data from one to the other?
Cheers Simon

I had an iPhone 3GS and wanted to transfer my SMS's to my new iPhone 4
I saw all the above methods
Sorry to say but all are very confusing
so I found this
Extremely simple and easy method to solve (The SMS Transfer) issue
I wanted to share with the community
well here it goes
Step One : Backup both your iPhones
Step Two : Search and download iTools for iPhone free download (for PC or MAC)
Step Three : Open itools & plug in your iphone 3GS
Step Four : Your iPhone will be detected & all details would be displayed on the left Panel
Step Five : Click on File Sytems
Step Six : On the right Panel click on filesystem (Jailbreak)
Step Seven : Go to filesystem/user/ library/sms
Step Eight : On the far right panel, you will see some very important folders and files
Step Nine : Simply Select All, Right Click and copy em in a new Folder may be on the desktop                     (Name it iPhone 3GS SMS)
Step Ten : Disconnect iphone 3GS and connect iPhone 4
Step Eleven : Repeat the steps from Five to Nine (Only copy them in a new folder and name it                      iPhone 4 SMS. (Note : We dont need these files n folders, but just in case                            something goes wron, we can replace them back)
Step Twelve : Copy the files n folders from the directory on the desktop named iPhone 3GS SMS
                     and paste the in the iphone 4 here (the program will ask wether to replace                             existing files n folders, in some chinese lingo, but u can see Y and N on each                           buttons so click on the left (Y)
And thats about it, You are done, As simple as that, All the SMS on the iPhone 3GS are transfered on the new device.
Screen Shot Attached for your reference
Caution : This worked like a charm for me, but it may not be the same for everyone so just in case anything goes wrong you can replace the previously saved files n folders in iPhone 4 SMS directory back. I am very clear, I am not responsible for any loss or damage, Do at your own risk.

Upgrading from iPhone 3G to 4 - how to keep music/SMSs/etc?

Hi all,
Just bought a new iP4. As far as I know, most music on my 3G is on the phone ONLY and not on the computer. How do I make sure that I transfer EVERYTHING to my 4, including photos, SMSs, music, etc.?
Thanks!

All iTunes content on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer - all music, movies, tv shows, and 3rd party apps.
If you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes - you don't have manually manage music and videos selected with their being no benefit with manually managing music and videos with an iPhone, after purchasing music from the iTunes store with your iPhone, the music will be copied to your iTunes library on your computer automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.
The same with 3rd party apps when having Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences, which should be selected for a number of reasons. With this selected, after downloading an app direct with your iPhone, the app will be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.
Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. The Camera Roll is for temporary storage no different with any other digital camera.
And photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer.
If you don't have Sync Music selected and Sync Apps selected, with your 3G connected to iTunes, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. This should transfer all music purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store direct with your iPhone and the same for all 3rd party apps.
