Trasfering upgrade between iPad and phone

Is it possible to transfer an device upgrade between an iPad and cellular phone? I want to upgrade my phone but my contract isn't up until February, but my iPad is eligible now. Let me know!

I just did this with no problem. Used available upgrade on my iPad account, Received phone by FedEx. I used the "Activate or Swtich Device" option on the web page in my account. I just activated the device on my phone line. iPad still works, and the new iPhone works. I never needed to activate it on the iPad line. I did not even transfer upgrade.
The iPad account now shows eligible for upgrade in 20 months, and the phone still has the original date for upgrade (in about 1 month).
Hope that helps.

  • How do I transfer ring tones between ipad and non-apple phone using bluetooth

    Can I transfer ring tones between ipad and non-apple phone using bluetooth?

    No. iOS devices do not support file transfers between non-iOS devices over Bluetooth.
    They probably wouldn't work anyway, as iOS ringtones have to be in a specific format.

  • Pages won't sync between iPad and Macbook

    I cannot get my pages to sync between iPad and Macbook.
    I regularly go back and forth between the two because it's easier to read/edit on iPad and easier to type/copy-paste web info on Macbook.
    I'm finding right now that I have done a multitude of edits on my iPad that are not showing up at all when I open the same document on my Macbook.
    I have closed the document on my iPad so I expected there to be no problems when I opened it on my Macbook.
    Not sure why or what to do....?

    I had this issue too - I have been playing around with it for a few days - turns out you need to save the documents on your mac not under "documents" but rather under "Pages - iCloud" (or "Keynote - iCloud" etc.). After doing this, the document appears on my phone, iPad, iCloud.com etc. with the changes.
    One way to do this is by clicking the dropdown arrow (it shows up when you mouse over the title) to the right of the title of your document on the grey title bar (the thing at the top of the page - above insert, table, chart etc.) and then editing the "where" column.
    Hope this helps! If it isn't clear enough, please let me know!

  • Handoff: No connection between iPad and iPhone

    Handoff: No connection between iPad and iPhone (IOS 8).

    Hi raydela,
    I understand your calls aren't being transferred between devices.
    Check out the troubleshooting in this article.
    Get help using Continuity with iOS 8
    If a call doesn't transfer to your other devices, or you don't see the Handoff icons
    Make sure that your devices are using iOS 8 or later by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
    Check your settings:
    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
    Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
    Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.
    Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps and turn on Handoff.
    Go to Settings > Phone and turn off Wi-Fi Calling.

  • Pages not updating iCloud between iPad and IPhone

    Can somebody please help?
    My Pages app won't stream the current documents to my iPhone using iCloud .
    I've tried everything I could possibly do. I've deleted the Pages app off my iPhone and started again. It just won't update the current documents that reflect on my iPad.
    It just has the arrows pointing upwards on the top right hand corner of quite a few documents. This is suggesting that there is no Internet connection when there is. I've tried it over WiFi and on 2 separate Bluetooth pairings with 2 iPhones. Each time it is connected with the Internet but the arrows still suggest otherwise.
    I have turned every possible iCloud on in every area. Turned them off then on, reset my phone from scratch doing a clean install not using a previous back up. Still didn't work...  Then going back and resetting using a previous back up... Still didn't work :(
    I have a 6 month old Mac Mini, the latest iPhone  5 and one month old iPad 4 with the current software updates.....
    Please help
    Regards Gareth

    I believe you are misunderstanding.  You don't sync apps between iPad and iPhone, and iCloud has nothing to do with any of this.  There is a setting in Settings -> Store where you can set each device to automatically download NEW apps, meaning that when you buy a new app on one device, the other automatically downloads it.  However, this is for new downloads only.
    For your existing apps, you can simply connect each device to your computer and move the desired apps to it in iTunes.  Or you can go to the App Store and re-download those apps.

    Regarding the internet breech as seen on the news.  What advice is Apple giving to its computer, iPad, and phone users?

    That does not affect any OS X client or iOS, and there is no action for you or Apple to take.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.

    In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified.  To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

  • I've got an iPad and iPhone 4S, both of which are set up for facetime. When someone calls me, both the iPad and phone ring, even though the phone is set to receive facetime calls on the number and the iPad is set for an email account. why is this?

    How can I change the setup so on the email only the iPad rings and on the phone number only the phone rings?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

    Hello Gary
    You can set up to when you make a purchase, they will download to all of your devices. Check out the article below to check to see if Automatic Downloads is enabled. If you are looking at adding music that was imported in from a CD, those you would need to sync to each device or you could use iTunes Match to keep everything looking the same.

  • Syncing notes between iPad and a MacBook with Lion OSX

    I cannot sync notes manually between iPad and MacBook - I could do that with Snow Leopard by creating a subfolder in Notes and keeping my Notes in that subfolder.  This doesn't work with Lion OSx - any ideas out there

    I would prefer MobileMe but have not been able to use that to sync notes.  So - I use itunes and check "Sync notes" under Other in the Info tab

  • HT4623 I'm trying to upgrade an ipad and in the system under general there is no software update.  What do I do?

    I'm trying to upgrade an ipad and in the system under general there is no software update.  What do I do?

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    With iOS 6 you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change

    Is the numbers app compatible between ipad and macbook for syncing?

    I think i have found how to solve the problem. I went into address book preferences and i noticed i didn't have icloud enabled here. As long as i use icloud contacts rather than 'on my mac' contacts it now seems to delete and add across the 2 devices. Many thanks
