Visual Voicemails Didn't Transfer When Switching from iPhone 3GS to 4

A couple months ago my boyfriend gave me his iPhone 4 instead of being stuck with my 3GS so I did a backup and then plugged in the iPhone 4 and set it up using the backup from my 3GS so everything transferred over. It was awesome because it worked so well, even transferring over my ALARMS, but today I realize that none of my saved voicemails transferred over.
Normally this isn't a huge deal but my mom passed away a few months ago and I had several voicemails saved from her that I would listen to whenever I missed her and wanted to hear her voice.
Are they gone forever? I hope not...

Perhaps your mobile carrier has this data archived somewhere with your recent calls and all that. I would try contacting AT&T for that.

HT1766 I'm switching from iPhone 3GS AT&T iOS 4.3 to new iPhone 5 Verizon. Apple online suggests iTunes 11.0.1 on MB OS 10.6.8 to backup contacts, etc. How do I know if backup really worked? Can't find an iPhone contact in MB AddressBook? tx

I created a new contact on my iPhone and a different one in my calendar on the MB. Connected iPhone to the MB and synched/backedup. However, I can't find my iPhone contact in MB AddressBook and vice versa. Did the backup work? I cannot afford to lose my calendar, contacts, etc when I get my new iPhone 5. thanks!

Transfer phone numbers from iphone 3gs to iphone 4s?

How can I transfer phone numbers from iphone 3gs to iphone 4s?

I recently upgraded from 3GS to 4S
I used mobile me for yers so i trustef this would work -
Ensure that everything is uptodate on the 3GS
sign in to icloud in the settings on the 3GS and ensure you are syncing contacts (calendars etc also but as you are only querying phone numbers you only seem interested in contacts)
use the same Apple ID on the 4s when you initially turn it on to set it up (this is what i did, icloud downloaded everything including my settings and what apps were in which folders and where)
If your 4s is already set up ensure the same apple id is used in the icloud settings.
Or you could go back to the pc and sync the 3gs one last time, then when setting up the 4s and it asks whether you want to set it up as a new phone or from a back up choose backup from itunes and then plug it in and select the 3gs backup from itunes to install

I believe you have to authorize the iPhone 4 in iTunes

Welcome to the world of Macs. See this introduction to Macs. It might be that you need to sync your iPhone with you MBP. To do this you would connect your iPhone to your MBP which should start up iTunes so you can sync music, vids, and possibly contacts.

Making the switch from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4 today. Purchased a SIM adapt

I have a 2 ATT/Apple/iTunes questions.
I am switching from a 3GS to a 4 today. I purchased a SIM adaptor so I can use the new mirco SIM in my 3GS. Once I activate my 4 will my 3GS be deactivated? ie will be able to swap my sim from one to the other and use each seamlessly?
My second questions is if iTunes will allow two iphones to be synced on a single computer/account simultaneously?
Thank you for the help everyone!

Yes, Upon activation of the SIM in the iphone 4, the SIM in the 3GS will be simultaneously deactivated. Only one SIM per mobile phone number can be active at one time.

Yes.

How to transfer purchased video from iPhone 3GS to computer?

Hi all,
So I just bought an iPhone 3GS, my first iPhone, and I've also done my first purchase of TV shows off of the iTunes store. (Series 2 of Torchwood as well as the recently aired Children of Earth.) I did the initial purchase on the iTunes store from the phone itself, not realizing that I couldn't actually download the episodes onto the device since that'd take ages over the 3G network. But I did see that I could download the HD episodes to my computer and the SD ones onto the device.
Fine, I think, I'll take my iPhone home and pull the episodes already download off of it onto the computer...
... only I can't find any way to do that. I have seen that I can download episodes directly to the computer and sync those down to the iPhone, but this has caused duplication of episodes; for example, I wound up with two copies of episode #3 of series 2 because the one coming in off the computer didn't actually override the one on the phone.
To further confuse matters, episodes 1 and 2 have vanished off the phone and I can't figure out if this is because I've watched those on the computer...?
Anybody got any ideas? I'd like to be able to free up space on the phone by pulling the five episodes on it onto my computer, so I won't have to download those twice. Thanks in advance!
Anna

Nope, Transfer Purchases didn't work for me at all.
I wound up emailing Apple Support directly for help and they couldn't give me an answer as to why that wasn't working either. But we did eventually reach a workaround of them unlocking some of the duplicate downloads for me so that I could do them again on my computer, while also deleting the files directly off the iPhone in manual mode. Not an ideal solution, but it did at least give me a way to get all the episodes onto my actual computer.
Thanks to y'all who've already answered.

Unable to transfer purchased applications from Iphone 3gs to Computer

As my computer crashed some time ago, I reinstalled the operating system and hence all my applications have disappeared from my itunes. I have already authorised my computer again but when my iphone 3gs is plugged in, I will receive a prompt saying that the purchases could not be transferred as my computer is not authorised. Deauthorising and reauthorising my computer does not work as I have tried that a few times already. This infinite loop is killing me.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

I actually found a solution in another forum. I have two iTunes accounts. I authorized iTunes with my other account and it synced just fine. It's really kind of dumb that I have two accounts. One is simply a user name, the other account is the same user name as my e-mail address. ie: kevinsharp (1st acct.) & [email protected] Every other bit of info in the two accts are the same: cc number, address, secret question, etc.
I really thought I had only one acct but I must have created another setting up my iPad.
Hope this helps.

How can i transfer my sms from iphone 3gs to iphone 4s?

Hi
I am thinking about getting an iphone 4s
How can I transfer my sms from an iphone 3gs to an iphone 4s?

I just bought a new iPhone, and also had an iPhone before.
You sync the old iPhone, plug in the new iPhone, and then you will be asked if you want to sync the new one with the old one.
I also wanted to keep all my SMSs, and it worked - they were transferred to my new iPhone.

Transfer ALL data from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4s

Hey guys,
My daughter recently got an iPhone 3GS, and wants to buy herself an iPhone 4S.
I know she plays a lot of games on her 3GS, like Clash Of Clans and things like that.
I was just wondering how to transfer all of those files onto her new phone. Would it be better to go through iCloud and backup there, or to connect to our computer and take a backup, then restore it from there?
Thank you for your help

Thank you very much Templeton, that helped me out of a jam
And a very quick response as well
