  • When I go to restore my phone; is there any way to pick what you want back on your phone or do you have to get everything backed up?

    When I go to restore my phone; is there any way to pick what you want back on your phone or do you have to get everything backed up?

    Thank you.  I was afraid of that.  I backed up from iCloud.  I looked at the iTunes one - it had four different ones on there; was hoping I could see because my grandson's phone was redone last year (his mom messed it up then) and didn't know anything was backed up to iTunes.  He lost a lot of stuff that time. I'm just trying to get his phone back to par after someone changed his passcode on him as a joke and forgot what they changed it to a few days ago.  They should change it so one could go in and pick what they want or don't want.  Thank you again for your time.  I do appreciate it.

  • I deleted an app by mistake. when I tried to restore my phone from my icloud backup it wasn't there.  I need an older backup. How long are they kept?? Thank you

    I delted an app by mistake.  when i tried to restore my phone from icloud I need an older backup. How long are they kept?? I'd like to get this app and it's contents back.
    thanks

    Apple states that it keeps your last 3 iCloud backups, which would only go back a few days if you back up daily.  Also, apps are not stored in the backup, only your app data is.  The backup simply notes which apps were on your phone when it was backed up, then downloads them from the App store when you restore the backup.  If the app is no longer available in the App store, it will not be restored to the phone when you restore the backup.

  • I have an iphone 4s and i keep getting an error message when ever i try to activate i have already restored the phone and it still will not work. any help would be greatly appreciated

    I have an iphone 4s and i keep getting an error message when ever i try to activate i have already restored the phone and it still will not work. any help would be greatly appreciated

    Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.  If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

  • HT201210 How do I get my Iphone4 out of recovery mode if restoring the phone on numerous occasions does not work?

    I was attempting to do the newest IOS 7 update and halfway through the reboot my phone froze.  I attempted to restart the reboot by shutting the phone off but when it came back on it showed a USB cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol.  When I plugged the phone in it stated that my phone was in recovery mode and needed to by restored.  When I attempted to restore the phone it "extracted data" for approximately 30 min and then stated the phone could not be found.  I tried this 4 separate times and took the phone to the local Verizon store who tried the same thing with the same results.  What do I do?

    Try this support document. It may take a number of tries http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    You could follow the instructions in the support document that you linked from. There is a section regarding the passcode and the inability to use it or enter it. However, you may encounter more issues since you cannot use the screen.

  • TS3694 when i try to restore my phone on itunes it stops half way through and says error 29 unable to restore

    when i try to restore my iphone 4s it say unable to complete restore error 29 now i cant use my phone at all

    Hello, gordy69. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I see you came from the most relevant article in regard to not being able to restore your iOS device.  I would take a look at the section I highlighted below.  Make sure to try the steps outlined in that section. 
    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • I need to turn off 'find my iPhone' so that I am able to restore my phone but my screen is not working. I logged into my iCloud but was not able to turn it from here. How do I do this?!

    My iPhone 4 screen stopped working. The phone is still on but the screen is not working at all, it is juts black. I was told restoring my phone might solve this problem so i plugged it into iTunes. When I click on the restore iPhone button a message popped up saying I needed to turn off 'find my iPhone' in phone settings for the restore to be go ahead. Problem is I cant access my phone!
    I went onto my cloud account to see if i could do it from here but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. Any ideas?

    From your iCloud account, you can go to Find My Phone and remove the iPhone from your devices list which will release it, or you could do a remote erase of the iPhone from iCloud.

  • Why is it when I want to download a song on itunes from a different computer it erases all of my other songs?

    Okay, so when I got my Iphone I went to go put music on it from my desktop. I finally got all of the music I wanted off of the desktop on to my Iphone. Then when I went to download a song that I had just bought from Itunes a little pop up came on the screen asking to erase my music that I had on my phone currently to download this one song. Well I had to so I could download the song onto my phone. So, after I had got the song downloaded I went back over to my desktop to redownload all of the other songs onto my phone. My question is, How are you supposed to download songs off of one computer with out erasing all of the other songs on your phone? I would really like to know because I want to download more songs onto my phone from my dad's desktop and I don't want to go through the hassle of having to redownload those of the songs all over again and risk losing all of the songs I will possibly have on my phone later.

    Thank you now how do I get the songs on to the flash drive?
    Insert the flash drive into the other computer, and open it so it looks like a window.  Highlight the songs you want in his iTunes, and drag them into that window.
    That will cause them to copy onto the flash drive, and will not affect his library.
    If you normally run iTunes in full-screen mode, make it smaller so that you can do the drag.
    Then insert the flash drive into your computer.  Find your Automatically Add to iTunes folder (it is inside the iTunes media folder) and drag the songs into it.
