Trying to restore new iPhone to old one's settings. Please help!

Hi there! I had to swap out my iPhone today for a new one, the receiver was no longer working. I had backed up my iPhone before taking it in to get switched, and now I'm trying to restore it back to my old phone's settings. When I plugged in my new one to iTunes, it said I had to first update the software on the phone before restoring the old settings. I did this and now can not figure out how to go back and restore those old settings
If anyone could help I would be beyond grateful!
Thank ya'll so much!

Restore the iPhone with iTunes. Restoring from the backup is the default selection when doing so after the iOS is reinstalled. Select from the backup for your previous iPhone when prompted if not selected by default.

  • When trying to restore my iphone 3 i get error 1015, please help?

    Hi,
    When trying to restore my iphone I got an error 1015 and it says the iphone cannot be restored. What should I do next?

    This Error is often received when the iPhone has the iPad baseband installed. So iTunes sees a higher number in your iPhone and gives downgrade Error 1015, because iPad baseband is numerically higher than iPhone 3G baseband. You will have to search the Web for the complete fix which in now available.

  • I'm trying to restore my iPhone 5 to the original settings because it did not sync my contacts from my last phone (it synced from my husband's phone instead).  I keep getting a message saying that files were corrupt so it couldn't restore settings. Ideas?

    I'm trying to restore my iPhone 5 to the original settings because it did not sync my contacts from my last phone (it synced from my husband's phone instead).  I am trying to delete everything so I can back it up from my previous phone and not my husband's.  I keep getting a message saying that files were corrupt so it couldn't restore settings. Ideas?

    I tried following the instructions listed in the following thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19512128#19512128
    but have still been unable to backup data using the third party software.
    TouchCopy tells me I have no photos or Video ad won't alllow me to copy any of the critical files e.g. Notes, Calendar, Contacts, Messages, etc.
    Anyone have any other suggestions for backing up my iPhone? Or help using TouchCopy?
    If I am ever able to get TouchCopy to work, should I be using Copy to iTunes or Copy to PC option?
    Thanks!

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • I tried to restore my Iphone 5 back to factory settings but I'm only getting the ring now

    I tried to restore my Iphone 5 back to factory settings but I'm only getting the blinking ring now, it's been a few hours.

    Do a hard reset with a computer. Enter DFU mode, connect to iTunes, and it will say that our device is in "recovery mode". Then click restore.
    How to enter DFU mode:

    While YOU may not have attempted to jailbreak the phone, SOMEONE ELSE did.  Error 1015 occurs by attempting to restore a previously jailbroken phone. 
    It's very likely you may NEVER get your phone out of recovery mode and your phone may be rendered permanently bricked.
    Terms of Use of this forum prohibit the discussion of jailbroken phones.  You'll have to scour the internet for a solution to your problem, if indeed one exists.

  • How do I transfer apps, photos messages etc to new iPhone from old one?

    I had an iPhone 4 and have just bought a 5s. I have signed into iCloud on the 5s but still can't get my apps, photos etc on it?
    In the past, when I have bought a new iPhone, I have simply put my iCloud details into the new one and it has instantly transferred over all my messages, apps, photos etc. This isn't the case this time and I'm not sure why?
    I have backed up the old iPhone on iCloud and tried to se that backup on my new one but it isn't transferring anything?
    Any advice would be much appreciated!

  • "No Backups Available" when trying to restore new iPhone

    I have a new iPhone and tried to backup from iCloud but it says "no backups available" - is this because this new phone is on 5.0.1 and the old phone was on 5.1?

    That means that you have an encrypted backup. When the backup was created, you had to have entered a password for the backup. If you do not remember that password, then you cannot use that backup without finding a way to decrypt the backup, which Apple does not support. A google search for "iTunes Backup decryption" should yeild results.

  • Restored new phone with old one lost all new photos/contacts

    I restored my new iphone 4s with my old iphones stuff by accident as it was the first time i had plugged it into my computer and i had some photos and new contacts that i need and have now dissapeared and been replaced by my old photos/contacts, is there anyway to get my contacts and photos back that were on my new iphone before i did this?

    Before you accidentally restored your new iPhone, can you remember if you have turned on Photo Stream and Contacts in iCloud? These are found at Settings > iCloud in your phone. If you have toggled Photo Stream on before, then toggling it back on now will push all your captured photos back to your iPhone in a Photo Stream album. Same case with Contacts. If you haven't done that before the incident, I don't think there is any other way to recover your previous data.

  • My new iphone 5 losing storage, can someone please help me?

    i keep getting less and less space on my new iphone 5, i plugged it in and itunes told me the "other" section was using 11.2 GB of a 13 GB phone. I dont know what to do or what is going on, can someone please tell me what's happening. Tried restoring my phone but the capacity was still over!

    You will not lose anything.  It does exactly what it says it puts the native apps in the same place they were when you got the phone i.e. it rearranges your home screen layout.  read page 20 of the manual

  • Syncing new iphone with old account without reciving old data

    I got a new iPhone. my old one crashed and was replaced. I'm using my old apple id. I want to sync my new iPhone to iTunes but I don't want to sync all the data already stored on iTunes from the previous iPhone. so actually, I want to sync my iPhone like it's it first syncing to iTunes. I want iTunes to receive contacts, apps etc from the iPhone and not the other way around. problem is that the apple id I'm using was already synced with the previous iPhone. could that be done?
    thank you

    Can someone help here?

    Bought the new iphone and tried to restore it to my old iphone settings. It synced some of the old data onto it, but then it froze and continues to. It says to restore it and erase everything, but I'm afraid to lose my contacts. Will the contacts be lost or will they be there when I sync it back up?

    Hello timotim56,
    This can be achieved by removing the device via iCloud.com

  • I got a new iphone and i restored it from my old one but I'm missing a ton of photos. How can I download the photos from my old phone and get them to my new one?

    Help please!

    Restore it thru iTunes. At the prompt about using a backup, choose the other option to set up as a new iPhone.
    Or, go to Settings/ General/ Reset/ Erase All Content and Settings, then don't select a backup.

    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.
