I bought a iPhone 4S and thought all my data from my 3GS was going to be transferred - surprise didn't happen. Is there a way to move my data stored in iCloud to my new phone?

I switched iphones today with a friend of mine. I made sure that I had backed up everything to my computer AND iCloud before doing the trade. Did it, everything set up fine. Restored through iTunes and then turned on. I still had my email, texts, call logs, contacts and notes. But all my apps and songs are gone. How do i get them back?

I lost my phone, an iphone 4S. I have an older 3GS as well as an icloud account that was set up when I bought the new one. How do I do this? When they gave me a new SIM card for my 3GS and reactivated it, the phone was right where it left off when I shut it down and turned on the new one.

Is there a way to restore my device to an old iCloud backup? Yesterday I had to restore my device with my iTunes backup and it was months old and I'm afraid that now my iCloud backup is overwritten. Is there a way to choose whick backup I want to restore and say, 2 days ago instead of the latest one?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI purchased a new iPhone 3GS and started using it. I set up iCloud backup, and chose to save all my contacts etc to iCloud.The device was defective, so I had to exchange it. When setting up the new device, it doesn't seem to see the backup I made. It makes me setup a new device. After I setup the new device when I go to iCloud settings, I can see the backup I made earlier, but there is no way to restore it. What should I do? There is no apple store in my country.When I erase the phone and try to set it up it doesn't "see" the backup, and makes me setup a new phone.After setting up the phone it can see the backup (In iCloud settings I can see it), but there is no restore option.When I log into [URL], I can see all the contacts, so it has indeed been backed up. I just don't know how to get it on the phone.

Restoring from iCloud backup: I downloaded iTunes, synched my iPhone 4s, and don't see any email, contacts, calendar items, photos, videos, or text messages. The screen does say the last backup to iCloud was minutes ago, but I have no idea how to check iCloud to make sure all my stuff is there before I restore my iPhone. (I need to restore the iPhone because it's having problems and Apple told me to do that through iTunes.) Apple told me I'd see everything in iTunes and could copy the stuff over once the restore is complete, but I just don't see anything in iTunes.

I purchased an iPhone 5S yesterday to upgrade from my 4S. I had everything backed up to iCloud. When I got the new phone, I restored the phone from the prior iCloud backup.
It went mostly smoothly, except it is still going. iCloud says it is still restoring and maybe half of my 1300+ photos are available. One the bottom of photos, it says "Downloading..."
I had to go different places in the past day or so, and I have been in and out of Wi-Fi. Is that the problem? Should it automatically continue to restore when I am back with a Wi-Fi connection? Is there a way to jump start this to make sure it is continuing?Â

I have an iphone 4s and usually backup everything to my computer. i have sms messages from my first iphone that i have never deleted. i never delete sms messages nor will I ever.
With that being said, if I decide to use the iCloud instead of backing up to my computer (where I have done many full restores from backups and confirmed every single one of my sms messages are there).
The iCloud settings allow granular backupsMailContactsCalendarsRemindersBookmarksNotesPhoto StreamDocuments and Data
But it does not say anything about imessage or sms. Have any of you done a FULL restore from an icloud backup and confirm all of your sms messages and imessages come back from the restore (messages that were received before the first icloud backup)? I am talking sms and imessages from 2009 that I still have..
I have had to replace my iPhone 4S twice this week (long story). I made sure in both cases that I was backed up to iCloud before I replaced the phone. I triple checked to make sure the last back up date/time, backed up again and can see the backups when I login to iCloud online, but when I try to restore from back up it has told me BOTH times that no iCloud backup is available?

I have just got an upgrade from 4s to 5c so now I'm trying to do a restore from iCloud, it's taking hours and hours, I'm not actually sure if any things happening, I can see my apps, but not all my photos. How do I know if it's actually working?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy iPhone recently went into recovery mode, so I had to restore it. I restored it through my iCloud backup, which had backed up the day before. It said to charge the phone as is was redownloading everything, because it loses the battery fast. I was charging it overnight (which I do sometimes, and it always completely charges in that 8-9 hour time period, obviously), but it only went from 20% to 99% in 8 hours! Then I started using my phone, checking to see if everything had downloaded correctly, and in about 3 minutes, it dropped from 99% to 86%.
I know that this commonly happens after an iOS update, but I did not recently update. I am using 7.1.1, which I have been using for a little over a month. Why my phone randomly went into recovery mode either last night (All I did was restart my phone yesterday because twitter wasn't working, and it wouldn't let me turn it back on). Also, my iMessage isn't working, even though I have it enabled. I have to send everything as a text message. My phone just lost 7% sitting idle while I typed this.

I have been trying to restore my iPhone 4S over iCloud since yesterday. Invariably, it will fail with the message that the iPhone is no longer connected to the internet. The wifi over which my iPhone is connected is also being used by four other computers that have no problems maintaining their connection with the internet. Currently, the estimated time remaining for the restore is 11 hours. It has come down from 52 hours. This over a broadband connection of 120Mb/sec down and 9 Mb/sec up. The size of the backup on iCloud from which I am trying to restore my iPhone is 8GB.

I have an iPhone 4S that I am restoring from an iCloud backup. The estimated time is 6 hours. If I leave the phone alone, the screen goes off after a few minutes. Will the restore continue even when the phone goes on stand-by?

I have been trying to restore my iPhone for about 12 hours now, and I'm about to pull my hair out if it doesn't work soon. The restore to factory settings goes fine, and then when I begin to set it up, it first gives me trouble activating it, but I just press continue when it says it hasn't been activated and a few minutes later I have signal. The next problem arises when I try and restore it from a iCloud backup. I have tried 3 different back ups, all 3 have given me the same problem. They say there is anywhere from 15-45 hours remaining, and it gets stuck at about a centimeter along the progress bar of the restoring settings part. I have not been able to get past this. Quite a few times it has said that my internet connection failed and I'll need to restart the restore. I know this most likely isn't true because I'll be on the computer at that exact point and not have an issue with the computer. I also have a very stable internet connection, and very fast. When I have done restores in the past it took about five minutes.

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!!!
