IPhone :: If I Synced My New 4 In Icloud, What Option Do I Choose In Itunes
Mar 17, 2012
I upgraded my 3Gs phone to a 4 while away on a trip. I synced with Icloud and have been happily using it. Just plugged it into my computer and am not sure what option (set up as new Iphone or Restore from back up) I need to choose and why.
I have the basic 5gb free storage from icloud. I stored my contacts on there and thats pretty much it. My iphone4 got lost so I got a new SIM card and put it into my fiancees old phone (also an iphone4). When i put in the new SIM, it downloaded all of my contacts to the phone immediately. But now, I need to plug into iTunes to get my apps and music. Only problem is, for some reason the last time iTunes did a sync it only copied 60 contacts into my MacBook Pro address book. HELP!!!
I just got a iphone 4s and am having problems with my imessage. I can turn it on using my apple id but my mobile number does not appear anywhere for me to choose it as an option. I keep getting "waiting for activation." The same thing is happening with facetime. I don't have the option to choose a mobile number.
We have an apple family consisting of an iPhone 4, iPad2, and an iphone 3G which we just upgraded to an iPhone 4 today. When we were setting up the new iPhone 4 to connect to iCloud and our apple ID we accidentally merged all the contacts via iCloud from both iPhones into 1 large contact list (the same list on both phones). We keep separate contact lists for our phones, but use iCloud to sync everything else together. I already figured out how to turn off the syncing of the contacts, but is there any way to revert/delete or however you want to word it, the contacts list back to each phone having only their original contacts? When I turned off the contact syncing in the iCloud settings it did ask if I wanted to keep the contacts from icloud or delete them so out of fear of it deleting ALL my contacts I tapped Yes to keep them (probably the wrong choice there). On my wife's new phone it is no big deal, I just manually deleted the 20 or so contacts that were added from my phone, but she has 100+ contacts that are now on my phone that I would rather not delete one by one manually. I also figure I could just do a restore from a backup on my phone through iTunes, but its been a while since I did one and I would end up loosing recent data and contacts so that isn't an option.
I ask because I got an iPhone 4S after my Nokia N95. When I had it, I used to sync my 700+ phone book entries with Outlook (2010).After getting iPhone, I could import this Outlook backup onto the new phone normally, then I eventually added a few new contacts to my book, naturally. When I get to icloud, I see only these added manually after I got the phone uploaded (synced).How to make all the 700 to go on the cloud?
I am having issues with duplicate contacts when i have both Gmail contacts and Icloud contacts synced. What is the best way to consolidate and prevent the replication of all these duplicate contacts? Is there an app that do this?
I set the homescreen on my S2 but every time I press the square button the option returns and I cant find a way of deactivating it. I kill the app but this does not resolve the issue and neither does wiping the phone and starting again.
I have an N8 which has 3 options for network mode - dual mode, 3G or GSM.I have absolutely no idea what any of these mean or what to select !The reason for my question is that I had to put my sim card into another phone for a couple of days and now I've put it back I cannot send texts or make any calls - I can receive them and get on the internet but that's it so I was wondering whether the network mode option has any effect?
I have always assigned my left convience key to lock my screen. After updating to 545 I have lost the option to even choose the keypad lock opt. Does neone know where this went? I updated with the official not the beta. Also I notice volume adjustments while on a call is not precise when lowering or raising.
I have clean install SL on my MBP and i have synced before on itunes. Now when i plug the iphone it says 'this iphone have synced with another itunes' and i have to erase my iphone data. i don't want to lost all my music,apps and contacts. this happening when i check 'manually manage your music and videos' on itunes and applying it.
I synced my iphone with itunes and now the music on my iphone is there, but only under "songs". The playlist titles are still under "playlists" but the songs are gone. The artists are still listed under "artists", but their albums and songs are gone. All the music is listed under "songs". How do I fix it back to the way it should be? This issue is only on my iphone, itunes on my laptop is normal, playlists are there and full of the songs I put on them.
My son wanted to download some music from my itunes and realized that it made his iphone 3 a duplicate of mine. Is there any way to restore his settings (contacts/pictures/etc) as it was before syncing?
I want to find an old used device name in my itunes. When I hook up my old phone and try to rename, I can only double click and type in something new. How do it see the names that have been synced to my computer before?

I have an iPhone 4S that I used to sync to iTunes.The computer that housed my iTunes library died long ago, and I have not replaced it. How do I delete the synced videos I still have on my iPhone since I do not have access to the iTunes library it is associated with? I know I can attach to a different iTunes account, but I don't want to mess with my music at all. I just want the old videos gone.

I have a Windows 7 PC with a folder full of .gifs. When I go to sync them onto my iPhone 6, they won't work when I try to send them via iMessage. Did they change it so you can't send it anymore or is there a specific way?
So i got a new macbook and when I connected my iPhone to the new iTunes I pressed sync and it was quick but nothing noticeable happened. But later I checked my voice memos and all except 3 voice memos were deleted.................................
I don't know why syncing even allowed this to happen but it did.
I've already backed up and restored and everything but it's not back. iExplorer didn't work either when searching through the backup, it found those 3 same voice memos...
I accidentally synced my iphone to my wife's library, which renamed my iphone in itunes. She was able to rename to my phone, but somewhere along the way I lost all my contacts from my iphone4. How can we recover these?
The iphone cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the itunes library. Additional 203 mb required. But there is 6 gb free space. What is the problem?
