IPhone :: New 3gs With New SIM Card - Retrieving Data?
Mar 21, 2012
My iPhone was stolen, so I had to buy a new one, so it's also a new SIM card. When I connected to iTunes, I thought it would ask me if I wanted to restore with my previous backed up data which would have also included all my contacts, notes, pictures, etc. It didn't. Is there any way to retrieve the backed up data from my old phone and sync it to my new phone?
how do you retrieve the ringtones from the data card? I was able to drag/load them on to the disk "f" using a usb cord from my computer to the Droid.However, when I try to find them on the phone it doesn't show them?
Does retrieving music and data from iCloud use up the data plan usage? And is there an adapter that will allow me to charge the iPhone with the standard charging cord for Blackberry and Android?
I just replaced a broken 3GS with a 3G I purchased on eBay. When I plugged in the new 3G, I saw the option to restore phone from the last backup of my old phone. When I clicked this option, iTunes told me I had to click the other option to restore as new device before I could use the backup. I did this and now I do not see the option to use the last backup of my old phone. I am wondering how I can access this backup and sync the new phone to it.
I just bought an atrix 2 and have downloaded zumocast on it and my computer.My phone says my computer is online.When I click on my PC on the home menu of zumocast app a message appears labeled "resource error" 'my pc name' could not be opened because there was an error retrieving the data from the server.Please try again."After I click ok I can go to my music tab and see all the available music but cannot download it.When I click on a song and choose download,a message appears " resource unavailable" 'song title' could not be opened because the server 'pc name' is not connected." I've tried setting my IE security to the lowest and it still wont work.I've also gone into mafee and turned netgaurd off for zumocast and still the same errors.I've also turned the firewall protection all the way off and it still doesnt work. How do I get zumocast to work?
I have setup Astro file manager to default to the external SD card when saving and retrieving files.
Today I was "editing" a PDF and after saving the edits chose to "send" it from the app itself. The app prompted me to use Gmail. It opened Gmail and, as far as I could see, attached the file to the message and prepared to send it. I sent it to my work email address. I was not on line at that time however not long after finding a hotspot I noticed that the message appeared on my work blackberry. BUT no attachment.
So then I , on my XOOM, opened Gmail and manually attached the file to the message and sent it. Again it appeared on my blackberry but again with no attachement.
I then went into Astro and moved the file onto the internal memory, created a new Gmail message and located the file internally, attached it to the message and sent it. This time my blackberry showed an attachment. So it seems that whilst I can open files from the external SAD card, edit them and save them I cannot pick up these files for attaching to an email.
Is this a XOOM or an OS issue? If an OS issue does ICS resolve it? If a XOOM issue, why is such a basic requirement overlooked?
My two months new 9900 dead on me yesterday. I am told there is a short on the system board and BB will not power up. I need to get my contact information and some data in my BB back up somewhere until I receive my new phone, anyway I can do it? I tried many ways including remove battery and connect to USB, I also have my 9900 charged for more than 10 hours already. Still no power.
I have a Z2 that got stuck in a reboot loop after attempting an update. I'd like to make sure I get a copy of my data before I hand it in to have it fixed.
Does anyone know what happens if you get an (activated) iPad micro-SIM and put it in a PC data card? Grabbing the $30/month for unlimited data before it goes away would be attractive if it works.
I'm aware I'd have to get a micro-SIM to SIM adaptor, but what else? Change the APN my PC uses? Does AT&T check the IMEI? I've been searching but no one seems to have tried it, unless my search-fu skills are failing me.
I bought a 16gb MicroSD card for my 5230 Nuron. How do I transfer everything from the original 4gb card to the new card? I've downloaded some apps and themes and I want to make sure they get transferred to the new card. I tried doing a full backup and restore using Ovi Suite and some of the downloaded apps made it and some didn't. I tried to re-download some of them from Ovi Store but Ovi Store seemed to think they were still there and wouldn't let me download them again. Is it as simple as copying the contents of the old card to the new card?
I'll be selling my new 3GS (hopefully for $400) and buying a iPhone 4. When I did this with the 3G to 3GS, I just swapped SIM cards in the iPhone at an AT&T store. With the iPhone 4 using a smaller SIM card, how is that going to work? Hopefully I'll sell my iPhone 3GS this week and then I'll be waiting for a couple of weeks for the iPhone 4.
1) How can I save/keep/transfer all Messages and Notes when I put my SIM card into a new iPhone?I have done that but only some of the Messages and Notes are there on new phone.
2) Also/or: are all Messages and Notes saved on my Mac whenever I Sync / Update it? And if so, WHERE on my computer do I find them? The Apple site says to be sure to Sync phone "to keep all data" (of course) but I want to make sure that includes ALL Notes and Messages and know where to find them on my computer to truly save and access them. * I have a 4S and the newer 4S with Siri. I am going to give the 4S to a daughter and keep the 4S with Siri.
3) Will the Genius Bar people help me with this if I can't myself, or do I need to go to AT&T (gag)?
I have a apple ID I cannot down load anthing even free stuff. It request for credit card data and after loading credt card data it says pls contact ITUNES SUPPORT what's is the problem I am facing ?
I was updating and installing to iOS4 when my iphone 3G suddenly says it can't read my SIM card and was locked. On my iTunes screen I was told I needed to insert a SIM card in order to continue with the installation of the iOS4. I used my friend's SIM card and my iphone was able to detect it however my itunes would only allow me to the option to restore my iphone which I did and now all my camera roll, notes, contacts and sms are gone and the backups in my iTunes are all post-iPhone-crash.
I bought Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden through an in-app purchase while it was on sale, but I didn't have space on my iPhone 4s, and now I can't figure out how to download it. It's not showing up in my iTunes, or anywhere on my phone. Only the free version is there. The only thing I can think to do is re-download the free version and try to re-purchase it, but the price has gone up from .99 to 6.99 and I'm not willing to pay the extra 7 bucks.

I've reseted the data of my phone recently and I've backed it up in my sd card but I don't know how to restore the data found in the sd card to my phone,how do I do this?I need my contacts and messages
Dropped the X8 and killed all but a postage stamp in the left hand corner of the screen.Stupidly no backups or syncs of my contacts anywhere.The sim phonebooks ok but will not show the data correctly on the borrowed samsung.
I would like to transfer the Sim data to the Sd card in the x8.The touchscreen still works even though I can't see much info,I can open phonebook.then in menu i see bottom three buttons as imp/ send/? there appears to be at least one above these.
I assumed imp to be the import button if I continue by selecting this I get a couple of buttons.export to / export to and I presume the bottom grey one to be cancel.However there at least one above these I cannot see. Perhaps someone could let me know the layout of these screen and which is the export to sd button.
Just a few minutes ago, my phone alerted me to have my files (photos and videos) to be transferred to my SD card. I did clicked it I thought everything would be alright. But then upon transferring my datas all the dates and times of the photos are all messed up I'm not sure what happened there, but I was confident that this wont be mixed up or something.
Everytime I transfer data (music or photo) on the card, it become corrupted. There is no problem with everything that stay on the internal memory.
The problem is present if I transfer through the phone or through the PC app.
I first tought the card was the problem. I tried it on the PC, I tested it with an app on the PC: the card is fine with no error. I also tried 2 other cards, they all do the same.
