Trying to restore phone settings from icloud but unable to because its telling me that the IOS is not compatible and neither are the previous 3 versions shown.  What shall I do?  The chap in the shop said it was easy...  I dont have the laptop to hand...

Can anyone help please?  Backed up Iphone 4s to icloud and received the replacement one.  So I am trying to restore from icloud.  Unfortunately, the phone tells me that the IOS system (showing 6.1.2 required) is incompatible  and so are the previous 3 backups...  I dont have the laptop to hand in order to backup to itunes either.  I'm guessing I cant set up as a new phone, get the latest IOS system update and then restore the backup from icloud... or can I?

On your new phone: Settings>General>Software Update. Once done: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You'll now be able to use your backup.
