Upgrade from iPhone 4 to 5s (both 16G) 'other' file now exceeds capacity

When I traded in my iPhone 4 in for the 5s (both 16G), I went from having about 40% open space to not being able to fit in my 700 iTunes library on the 5s.  Nothing was added but the 'other' indicator is now way bigger and filling up most of the capacity.  Can anyone help with what I need to do to clean that out?

  • I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine until I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded it from iTunes, my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers.  Can I go back and re-sync one app from my old phone?

    I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine.  Yesterday I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion.  Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?

  • Upgrade from iPhone 4 to 4S and all photos in Camera Roll went missing

    I upgraded from iPhone 4 to iPhone4S. I did a restored from my last backup before the upgrade and all my photos in my camera roll has disappeared!
    What I discover is that it is still stored in the iPhone 4S as it took up 25GB of storage. However, it is not accessible inside the iPhone 4S. The photos are stuck in the iPhone 4S and taken up a lot of storage in the iPhone. Please help!

    What I meant was I bought a new iPhone 4S and restored my backup of my old iPhone 4 into iPhone 4S and the camera roll photos that were in the old iPhone 4 did not show up in my iPhone 4S despite occupying space in the iPhone 4S ...

  • HT3228 I upgraded from iPhone 4 to a 5 and my emails have duplicated.   Those I received and read on my Mac this morning have come in again and show unread so I have 2 of all of them.   Any idea what setting is causing this?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Upgrading from IPhone 3 to IPhone 4

    I am trying to upgrade from IPhone 3 to IPhone 4, by restoring from iTunes.  I've followed the steps on Apple site (check for upgrades, back-up old phone, go through steps on new iphone, select restore from back-up, choose back up to restore from).  It went through everything and then for no apparent message came up with an error message saying restore from back up had not completed.  Now when I try to start the process again, iTunes launches straight into backing up and syncing my NEW phone, even though the who process hasn't yet completed.  Am in a complete loop - it won't let me start the process again from scratch or allow me to restore again.  Help!

    Thanks to everybody for the quick advice. I did manage to get iTunes to show the 4.1 update by selecting "Check for Updates" from the iTunes menu (it would be under the "Help" menu on Windows I believe), and I am in the process of downloading the update right now (download only). As per the advice offered by everybody else who replied to my post, I will be waiting for a while before actually running the update to see how this update fairs on other folks' 2nd generation iPod Touches. I'm happy enough with iPhone OS 3.1.3 for now. I'd really like to have iBooks and a few other apps that require iOS 4 as well as the unified inbox and home-screen folders, but I'm content enough to hold off a while longer just to ensure maximum stability.
    Thanks again everybody!

  • HT201210 I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. I choose the option to restore from my last 3G backup. It worked fine but I just realized that I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S. What should I do? Thanks for any help. Léo

    I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. When setting up the new 4S, I choose to restore my last 3G backup. It started by updating the OS to version 5.1 (9B179) then restored my apps and setting. Everything went well except that I realized I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S, like FaceTime, HD video and Siri.
    What should I do to correct this?
    Thank you in advance for any help on this.

    Ah, FaceTime is not an app, either. It's accessed by tapping the FaceTime button when you are in the contacts app and have selected a contact. This can also be done from the Phone app under the Contacts tab, or during a call, you can switch to FaceTime.
    Let me know what other apps/features you are missing.

  • When you upgrade from iPhone 3 to 4, will you lose any existing texts you have saved?

    When you upgrade from iPhone 3 to 4, will you lose any existing texts you have saved?

    That does do that. However it is a temporary backup and not the most reliable. Make sure you also go into file > Transfer purchases from _______ to make sure you save your music and apps. though the article that wjosten posted is correct for the backup as well. But article HT1414 is better for info on backing up.

  • I've upgraded from iPhone 4 to 5, and can't upload from iCloud

    I've upgraded from iPhone 4 to 5, and I'm got as far as 'restore from iCloud'. And it says iOS 6.1.3. Required. So i went back to freshly backed up iPhone 4 and checked that it had iOS 6.1.3 all ready. There's no updates on settings  icon

    Personally, when upgrading to a new device and wanting to download from a backup of the older device to set up the new device, I ALWAYS do the backup and restore from my computer's itunes.  It's much more reliable than icloud.

  • Upgrading from iPhone OS 3.1.3 to iOS 4.1 directly?

    Forgive me if this has already been discussed; I didn't spot any topics for it right off hand.
    I've held off on upgrading my second generation iPod Touch to iOS 4, specifically waiting for 4.1 to release. I know what features will and will not work on the 2G iPod Touch, but I'm definitely interested in those features that will work.
    My question at present is, can I upgrade from iPhone OS 3.1.3 (my currently installed version) directly to iOS 4.1 without having to stop off at 4.0.2 first? iTunes currently shows only the 4.0.2 version as being available, although I know otherwise. It also doesn't give me the option to check for new versions.. only the option to upgrade to 4.0.2. If I have to upgrade to 4.0.2 first, then so-be-it, but if there is a way to go straight to 4.1, I think I'd like that much better.

    Thanks to everybody for the quick advice.
