TS4036 Duplicate Devices on iCloud after restore

I have a 16gb iPhone 4. Backups are automatically on but they are full. I just restores from an older backup and now it shows an additional iPhone 4 in the list of devices. Can I delete the old 4 backup and start all over?

You can delete a backup if you no longer need it.  This won't effect any of the data on your phone.  Just be sure you don't need it any more because once it's deleted you can't get it back.

  • There's no music in my device (ipod touch) after restoring content because of a software issue. music is available in my laptop's cloud though. how do i restore music in my device?

    there's no music in my device (ipod touch) after restoring content because of a software issue. music is available in my laptop's cloud though. how do i restore music in my device?

    hi! an error message showed on my device last week and Apple support  helped me restore the software on my device. Syncing went well and all my apps were available after. However, when I looked at my music in my device, it did not contain anything. The songs were in Itunes on my laptop and when I tried to play them they did not play. But, it says music is available for my account in the cloud. When I switched to the cloud, I was able to play my music already. But everytime I synced, the music from the cloud are not transferred to my device. Most of the music that I have are from other sources. How do I download those again to my device? I tried what I did before which was to copy the song from my laptop then edit paste it to iTunes but this did not work like before when automatically it becomes available on my device.
    pls help. thanks!

  • Can't backup device to iCloud after updating to iOS 8.1

    I've never had an issue with backing up any of my devices to iCloud, however yesterday I updated to iOS 8.1 OTA. When I tried to back up last night, it says I'm out of storage space. Nothing has changed though. Anyone have any ideas as to what's going on?

    Use Dropbox for that. Easier.

  • Iphone 5s does not show under my devices on iCloud  after it was stolen

    After my iPhone 5s was stolen I tried locating by logging into my iCloud account through my friends iPhone. The first night it showed offline (I assume it's because it was off). Next day when I tried to locating it again it read "no devices"  "setup instructions". I don't know if I did something wrong and perhaps deleted/erased my device accidently from my iCloud account. Please help. What can i do?

  • ICalendar entries missing on device and iCloud after scheduled backup

    Arghh...when I checked my schedule on my iPhone 4S Calendar today, everything was gone...EVERYTHING! I then checked calendar on iCloud from my laptop and the same thing. This seems to have happened 1) since an automatic, scheduled backup occured during the night and 2) since I installed the latest iOS.7 update (7.0.3) a day or two ago (the one that is supposed to fix glitches). So now I'm stuck and I don't know my work schedule (and seriously, I have 5 part-time jobs!).
    Any help would be really appreciated! Thank you.

    ITunes and iCloud backups are different and distinct.

  • Duplicate Mac in iCloud

    I need help with something. It is not urgent, but it is frustrating me.
    I recently wiped and restored (from a Time Machine backup) my MacBook Pro with Retina Display. After doing so, I set it up again and signed in to iCloud. Same device, no other Macs, but for some reason it is now showing that there are two MacBooks in Find My Mac and in other places. For example, when removing a Mail account from System Preferences under Internet Accounts, it says, "Removing from all computers using iCloud Keychain will remove it from this Mac and 'X’s MacBook Pro'". I don't understand this, because "this Mac" and "X's MacBook Pro" are the same device. Is there a way to remove this duplicate device from iCloud?

    Hello cargeekschmid,
    Because your Mac was not removed from your iCloud account before you erased, it technically thinks that you have started a new device. What you can do to remove it is to go to icloud.com/#find and sign in. Look at the devices available and remove the one that it does not find.

  • I accidentally removed my device from Icloud?

    How can you add your device to Icloud after you accidentally removed it?

    I removed a device, how do I add it back?
    Once you remove a device, it will automatically be added again the next time the device connects to the Internet, as long as your iCloud membername and password are configured on the device under iCloud Settings > General. If this does not occur, see the "iPhone, iPad, Mac or iPod touch does not appear in Find My iPhone" section above.

  • TS4036 My camera roll will not restore from iCloud after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. It shows I have 1.7 gigs of photos stored on camera roll but none are appearing on my phone. Everything else restored from iCloud.

    My camera roll will not restore from iCloud after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. It shows I have 1.7 gigs of photos stored on camera roll but none are appearing on my phone. Everything else restored from iCloud. When I go to iCloud.com my photostream is not there.

    A response I put together from another post. Also going into iTunes and choosing to sync phone to iCloud then back "this computer" sometimes works.
    First thing.. Stop where you are. Don't try to sync, update, hard reset, iCloud... Just stop.
    Check on your phone under 'SETTINGS' 'GENERAL' USAGE'. It should show some value for PHOTOSTREAM. Also, connect to iTunes and you will notice at the bottom of your phones summary page that there is a large amount of 'OTHER' data.
    I used third party software called iExplorer (formerly iPhone explorer). In this program you select 'MEDIA FOLDER', then 'DCIM'. In the various apple folders (IE: 101APPLE) you should be able to preview your photos and copy them to your desktop.
    From there sync them back to your device through iTunes or whatever method you use.
    There is a simpler solution I'm sure, which may involve using iExplorer to delete some .plist files then restart the phone and let it rebuild. I'm going to try it myself AFTER I've finished copying all the photos to my MAC
    Hope this helps.

  • ICloud tabs showing same device twice after restore

    I did a restore of my iPhone in order to start from scratch, so to speak, and now that it's done, on all my devices with iCloud enabled, I'm seeing my phone twice in Safari's iCloud tabs (see photo here).  Is there anyway to reset this or get rid of the previous version of my phone?

    You want to turn it off and see if that works. Personally I see multiple complains here with Safari bookmarks and recommend Google Chrome browser. That way as long as you login - you have access to your tabs, bookmarks everywhere.

  • My iPhone 3Gs is now no longer a recognised device on iTunes after I downloaded the new iTunes with iCloud software, but it does recognise my iPad2??

    My iPhone 3Gs is now no longer a recognised device on iTunes after I downloaded the new iTunes with iCloud software, but it does recognise my iPad2??
    I run both Mac and a PC and have iTunes on both, which has previously recognised my iPhone. I had updated my Mac with the new iTunes software with iCloud and updated my iPad2 just yesterday. I then wanted to do the same with my iPhone today, but my Mac wouldn't recognise the device so I tried it on my PC, which recognised the phone but told me I needed to update my iTunes and this in turn wanted to update my iPhone software. After completing all this and restarting, my iPhone now shows the iTunes icon with the USB plug pointing towards it, obviously wanting me to plug it in to my computer to re-connect with iTunes, but now neither of my computers recognise my iPhone and my PC states an 'Unknown Device'. My Mac doesn't even see it. Can anyone help as I really need to get my phone working?? Thanks

    Hold down the Home and Power button for 20 seconds. And try to update again.

    Tanks

    You have to follow the process outlined here to recover contacts from an iCloud backup: Recovering deleted iCloud contacts from an iCloud backup..  Otherwise, as you have noticed, the recovered contacts are overwritten when your device reconnects to iCloud.

    The iPhone has Activation Lock and will require you to have the previous owner's Apple ID and password or you'll need to get the previous owner to remove the device from his/her iCloud account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702
    If you can't reach the previous owner or he/she is unwilling to cooperate, then the device is unusable by you. Return the iPhone for a refund if you can.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you checked they are still available in the App store.
    Did you purchase them all from the same account.

  • Can't enable iCloud Keychain after restore?

    I know my security code and the Apple ID password, as well as the phone #. However, I haven't received the message yet. I don't think my carrier supports SMS. This was the only device with keychain enabled, and after restoring I can't use it to confirm itself. Is there some other way to set up keychain?

    If you can't receive the verification code via sms on your phone, then you need to contact Apple support as the prompt indicates.  They can verify your credentials and add your device to the keychain: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.
