Why can i not restore my phone from icloud?

I had my i phone 4s stole about a month ago and i got my replacement from my insurance this week.
The problem is, when i'm trying to set up the phone and asked if i want to restore from icloud back up, it searches and says there is no back up available. But when i log in to icloud on the phone (i continued setting up as new phone) i can see my last back up as "30.10.12".
How can i restore my phone??

If the device you are trying to restore is running an older version of iOS than the one you backed up, you'll have to update it to the latest iOS before the backup will be available to restore from (see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3682). If that's the case, update your device, then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content & Settings, then go back through the setup screens again and see if your backup is now visible.

Same here. Some of iCloud is down.

Why can i not play a song from icloud?

I uploaded a song (not a commercial song - one a friend had performed) to itunes last year, and it worked well. I uploaded it to icloud and then bought a macbook pro. I did not transfer the itunes files from my old computer to my new computer. I just went to play the song (actually, the album) and while it appears in icloud on my iphone and my itunes library on my macbook, I cannot download it. It's not grey - it just won't download or play. Any ideas what to do? Had my song been lost in the icloud?

Why can I not print a PDF from an email?

Why can I not print a PDF from an email any longer?

Can you explain in better detail?
Is it when you open the file attachment and attempt to Print?
Is it right-mouse clicking and attempting to Print?
Is it when you print the email itself and expect the attachment to Print?

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

Sorry ?
An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8, for the simple reason it was
created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
current version for compatibility.

Why can I not put a picture from camera roll into an album?

Why can I not put a picture from my camera roll into an album now? When I try these are greyed out. I created these albums on my ipad too but ever since I updated to IOS 7 this can't be done, it was so easy before.

I can now answer my own question as I've worked it out. For those who are interested click on Shared Streams then on album you require photo to be in then click on the empty box with a cross in the centre and choose photo you wish to add.

Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library

Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library. There are many books that I want to delete and replace with current books, but cannot remove the old books. Thanks Guy

Hey cjt101,
Thanks for the question. Was this song purchased from the iTunes Store? If so, it may be that your device is configured to show all of your purchased music that has not yet been downloaded. The following resource may resolve your issue:
iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
Thanks,

1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

Why can I not turn my phone on?

Why can I not get my phone to come on?

Without more info, here's a wild guess...
Plug it in to power for at least 15 minutes. Then, try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Hi Nortarian,
The article below will walk you through the troubleshooting steps for email on your iPad:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
Hope this helps ....

After updating my 3gs to ios 5.0.1, I can not restore my phone from my pc. It says session failed. It appears to be a backup available.

After updating my 3gs to ios5.0.1, I can not restore my phone. It says session failed after about 20 seconds. It appears to be a restore point available. What should I do?

Hi all,
I work for an Enterprise with around 30 devices so far, 5 of them have been upgraded to iOS 5.01 and we are having this issue, the steps below are appearing, these are both on iphone and ipad 2's with exchange 2003:-
- Exchange Calendars not sync'ing, but Yahoo account working fine.
- Create an appointment on the ipad / iphone and this sync's with Exchange.
- Close the Calendar and re-open the appointment disappears, but stay's within Exchange.
- Meetings created within the Exchange Calendar do not synch with the iphone / ipad.
This is starting to cause a lot of issues.
Thanks
Keith
