Re: New iPhone 5s.
Hi Pablo When you get your 5S, during setup just use the apple ID you used for your iPhone 4. Then restore your iPhone 4 through iTunes, and during setup choose restore as new device. Then it will be clean and you can give it to your friend. - Original Message - From: Pablo Morales To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2013 11:47 AM Subject: New iPhone 5s.

Everything was restored and came back on my phone after getting my ID back, but I had to reset my mail accounts, but then, everything that is saved in my mail came back to me. I got my apps back, but I had to rearange my folders. I don't know if you have to, but just letting you know what I experienced.

Hi Pablo, Maybe Ed somehow overlooked the line that your 5S is coming anyways, anyhow, I think I understand what you need to do. You are getting the 5S as your personal phone and want to get rid of your iPhone 4 and transfer all content to your new 5S, right? Just to get this out of the way: when you receive your 5S, make sure the first thing you do after turning it on is to press the home key 3 times. This will start Voiceover. I actually recommend you do all the stuff below first as far as backing up your iPhone 4, then when you are ready to set up your iPhone 5S, just connect it to your computer and iTunes. Don't touch anything, just take it out of the box, take off the plastic front and back protectors and plug in the Lightning cable, then wait. Plugging it in will turn it on and there will be a double vibrate once it's booted up. Wait another 10 or so seconds after that to make sure it's ready, then press the home key 3 times and Voiceover will come on. You then have to choose your language, your country, join your WiFi, enter your Apple Id, opt into iMessage, Facetime and iCloud, turn on Find my iPhone, set up Touch ID etc. This might be in slightly different order, but it's close. When you set up Touch ID make sure you put just one finger on the home button and do it as many times as it asks for it. Do it by slightly rotating your finger and by putting different parts on it, just the tip, the sides, a bit further back etc. Once it took about 10 or 12 readings it should tell you that it's ready and later on you can go to Settings, General, Passcode and Fingerprint and set up more fingers. You will also have to choose a 4-digit passcode and remember that if you ever turn off your phone or reboot it, you will have to enter your passcode the first time, only after that will Touch ID work to unlock your phone. It is also quite likely that after the setup process finishes you will be told that there is an iOS update since my phone had only iOS 7.0 on it and before I did anything else I installed the iOS 7.02 update. I also believe that the high quality voice does not download automatically. Maybe it would have in time, but I went to Settings, General, Accessibility, Voiceover, Languages and Dialects and then double tapped on US English and then I could turn on to use the enhanced voice, it started downloading as soon as I turned it on. I also turned on Reduced Motion in the main Accessibility settings. OK, so, here is what you do with your iPhone 4: First, make a backup of your iPhone 4, you can back it up to iCloud or to your iTunes, I suggest you do both. I would also take this as an opportunity and go over all the apps and if there are any you don't use or rarely use I would delete them from your phone, they are not lost to you and if you decide you want them back on your 5S later you can always redownload them. I actually prefer to back up to iCloud but also to do a manual backup to iTunes and I always choose the option to do an encrypted backup which backs up certain passwords as well and it's a better option if you do a backup to iTunes anyways.

Re: New iPhone 5s.
Hi Sieghard. Just a question about the steps that you say in this email. It is about the finger print. Is a way to repeat the finger print setup? for example, I like to work with tools, and some times my finger prints get in my index finger, very difficult to be read. You know. I think that I will need to use another finger, maybe the little finger. How can I repeat the setup of the finger print? when I go to settings/general/passcode and finger print, the finger print just says deep button, and is not way to activate this feature, or to change the position of the button, saying, finger print deep button. I am lost. Thanks Pablo - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2013 1:25 PM Subject: RE: New iPhone 5s.

RE: New iPhone 5s.
room to spare, but I really don't use my iPhone a lot for music since I am very big into audio books and if I am on a long flight or waiting somewhere I rather listen to an audio book than to music. OK, good luck, once you have your new iPhone 5S setup and it's all good I suggest you do a restore of your iPhone 4 by hooking it up to iTunes. This will reinstall iOS 7 and wipe everything. Once the restore finishes you would normally go to your phone and go through the setup process of selecting language, country, entering your Apple ID etc. I would then just disconnect it and give it to your friend and he can go through that and set it up the way he/she wants.

Re: New iPhone 5s.
Hi Ed. Well, really this issue doesn't make sense in any language either. I cancelled the order, but any way t-mobile sent the iPhone. So I cancelled my order this last Thursday, but I have received a notification from USPS saying that they will bring the iPhone today to my home. It doesn't make sense in english or any other language. You understood well that I tried to say, and also, english is not my native language. Anyway, the point is that I need to know what to do to transfer apps, and personal information from my iPhone 4 to the new one.

Re: New iPhone 5s.
email account information and since all my mail and contacts are stored in the cloud, as soon as the restore finished and I went into Mail I only had to enter the passwords for my Office 365 account and for the 2 Outlook.com accounts I use personally and everything was back. Lastly, media such as music, photos and so on have to be synced, they are not included in the backup. I decided to unsync all my music from my iPhone 4S before since I figured I would like to take a look at it again anyways to see if I really want it all on my phone. I can easily put all my 26 Gb of music on my 64 Gb phone and have room to spare, but I really don't use my iPhone a lot for music since I am very big into audio books and if I am on a long flight or waiting somewhere I rather listen to an audio book than to music.

Re: New iPhone 5s.
Hi Sieghard. Well, I can't follow the steps that you gave me. My iPhone 5s doesn't want to connect to my WiFi. It doesn't accept the password. I have retried it around 20 times, and no way. I have tried turning off the modem and router, and putting them back on, and nothing. I tried also turning my iPhone 4 off, and the same thing. What is happening here? Thanks Pablo - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2013 1:25 PM Subject: RE: New iPhone 5s. Hi Pablo, Maybe Ed somehow overlooked the line that your 5S is coming anyways, anyhow, I think I understand what you need to do. You are getting the 5S as your personal phone and want to get rid of your iPhone 4 and transfer all content to your new 5S, right? Just to get this out of the way: when you receive your 5S, make sure the first thing you do after turning it on is to press the home key 3 times. This will start Voiceover. I actually recommend you do all the stuff below first as far as backing up your iPhone 4, then when you are ready to set up your iPhone 5S, just connect it to your computer and iTunes. Don't touch anything, just take it out of the box, take off the plastic front and back protectors and plug in the Lightning cable, then wait. Plugging it in will turn it on and there will be a double vibrate once it's booted up. Wait another 10 or so seconds after that to make sure it's ready, then press the home key 3 times and Voiceover will come on. You then have to choose your language, your country, join your WiFi, enter your Apple Id, opt into iMessage, Facetime and iCloud, turn on Find my iPhone, set up Touch ID etc. This might be in slightly different order, but it's close. When you set up Touch ID make sure you put just one finger on the home button and do it as many times as it asks for it. Do it by slightly rotating your finger and by putting different parts on it, just the tip, the sides, a bit further back etc. Once it took about 10 or 12 readings it should tell you that it's ready and later on you can go to Settings, General, Passcode and Fingerprint and set up more fingers. You will also have to choose a 4-digit passcode and remember that if you ever turn off your phone or reboot it, you will have to enter your passcode the first time, only after that will Touch ID work to unlock your phone. It is also quite likely that after the setup process finishes you will be told that there is an iOS update since my phone had only iOS 7.0 on it and before I did anything else I installed the iOS 7.02 update. I also believe that the high quality voice does not download automatically. Maybe it would have in time, but I went to Settings, General, Accessibility, Voiceover, Languages and Dialects and then double tapped on US English and then I could turn on to use the enhanced voice, it started downloading as soon as I turned it on. I also turned on Reduced Motion in the main Accessibility settings. OK, so, here is what you do with your iPhone 4: First, make a backup of your iPhone 4, you can back it up to iCloud or to your iTunes, I suggest you do both. I would also take this as an opportunity and go over all the apps and if there are any you don't use or rarely use I would delete them from your phone, they are not lost to you and if you decide you want them back on your 5S later you can always redownload them. I actually prefer to back up to iCloud but also to do a manual backup to iTunes and I always choose the option to do an encrypted backup which backs up certain passwords as well and it's a better option if you do a backup to iTunes anyways. Under the Summary tab once your phone is connected you have to tab a lot of times, maybe 30 times, to get to it. It's a checkbox and as soon as you check it you are asked to select a password. You can choose a relatively simple password here, it's only on your computer and not that critical, just make sure after you enter it the first time to tab once and re-enter it to confirm, then tab to OK and press it. You should hear Jaws announce a percentage as your backup is going on. OK, now once you backed up your phone you have taken care of your phone's settings, home screen layout, any text messages and so on will be restored etc. I don't know how you store and sync your email and contacts so here you probably have to figure out yourself how you get those back. I personally use Office 365 for my business which is full hosted exchange and I use Outlook.com (used to be Hotmail/Windows Live) for my personal email and contacts. Both of these services store email, contacts and calendar info in the cloud and the Office 365 service also syncs Notes in Outlook with the Notes app on my iPhone. In my case when I received my 5S yesterday I first set it up as a new device, then I hooked it up to iTunes and restored my encrypted backup. Since my backup included my email account information
Re: New iPhone 5s, and wifi.
Do you have a dual band router? The iPhone 5s will pick up both bands, whereas the iPhone 4 will only pick up one band. Make sure you're connecting to the right network.

I also turned on Reduced Motion in the main Accessibility settings. OK, so, here is what you do with your iPhone 4: First, make a backup of your iPhone 4, you can back it up to iCloud or to your iTunes, I suggest you do both. I would also take this as an opportunity and go over all the apps and if there are any you don't use or rarely use I would delete them from your phone, they are not lost to you and if you decide you want them back on your 5S later you can always redownload them. I actually prefer to back up to iCloud but also to do a manual backup to iTunes and I always choose the option to do an encrypted backup which backs up certain passwords as well and it's a better option if you do a backup to iTunes anyways. Under the Summary tab once your phone is connected you have to tab a lot of times, maybe 30 times, to get to it. It's a checkbox and as soon as you check it you are asked to select a password. You can choose a relatively simple password here, it's only on your computer and not that critical, just make sure after you enter it the first time to tab once and re-enter it to confirm, then tab to OK and press it. You should hear Jaws announce a percentage as your backup is going on. OK, now once you backed up your phone you have taken care of your phone's settings, home screen layout, any text messages and so on will be restored etc. I don't know how you store and sync your email and contacts so here you probably have to figure out yourself how you get those back. I personally use Office 365 for my business which is full hosted exchange and I use Outlook.com (used to be Hotmail/Windows Live) for my personal email and contacts. Both of these services store email, contacts and calendar info in the cloud and the Office 365 service also syncs Notes in Outlook with the Notes app on my iPhone. In my case when I received my 5S yesterday I first set it up as a new device, then I hooked it up to iTunes and restored my encrypted backup. Since my backup included my email account information and since all my mail and contacts are stored in the cloud, as soon as the restore finished and I went into Mail I only had to enter the passwords for my Office 365 account and for the 2 Outlook.com accounts I use personally and everything
Re: New iPhone 5s, and wifi.
yes, you were right. I found a second network, with a name pretty similar that that I had in my iPhone 4. Now my iPhone is connected.

Do you have a dual band router? The iPhone 5s will pick up both bands, whereas the iPhone 4 will only pick up one band. Make sure you're connecting to the right network. For example, on my iPhone 4S, I connect to ChaltainNet, while my wife on her iPhone 5C can connect to either ChaltainNet or ChaltainNet 5G. On 10/17/2013 06:34 PM, Pablo Morales wrote: Hi all.

Re: New iPhone 5s.
Pablo, Your message makes perfect sense to me. I think your english is pretty good despite it being your another language than native. I don't see any unclearness in your messages. Just letting you know. OK? Anyways, I also wanted to suggest that you may have to set up your mail again. I had to do that with my phone. Everything was restored and came back on my phone after getting my ID back, but I had to reset my mail accounts, but then, everything that is saved in my mail came back to me. I got my apps back, but I had to rearange my folders. I don't know if you have to, but just letting you know what I experienced. It's really no big deal for me as it was pretty simple to have it set up. Thanks! On 10/17/13, Pablo Morales pablomorale...@gmail.com wrote: Sieghard. Thanks for all these steps.

Hi Pablo, Maybe Ed somehow overlooked the line that your 5S is coming anyways, anyhow, I think I understand what you need to do. You are getting the 5S as your personal phone and want to get rid of your iPhone 4 and transfer all content to your new 5S, right? Just to get this out of the way: when you receive your 5S, make sure the first thing you do after turning it on is to press the home key 3 times. This will start Voiceover. I actually recommend you do all the stuff below first as far as backing up your iPhone 4, then when you are ready to set up your iPhone 5S, just connect it to your computer and iTunes. Don't touch anything, just take it out of the box, take off the plastic front and back protectors and plug in the Lightning cable, then wait. Plugging it in will turn it on and there will be a double vibrate once it's booted up. Wait another 10 or so seconds after that to make sure it's ready, then press the home key 3 times and Voiceover will come on. You then have to choose your language, your country, join your WiFi, enter your Apple Id, opt into iMessage, Facetime and iCloud, turn on Find my iPhone, set up Touch ID etc. This might be in slightly different order, but it's close. When you set up Touch ID make sure you put just one finger on the home button and do it as many times as it asks for it. Do it by slightly rotating your finger and by putting different parts on it, just the tip, the sides, a bit further back etc. Once it took about 10 or 12 readings it should tell you that it's ready and later on you can go to Settings, General, Passcode and Fingerprint and set up more fingers. You will also have to choose a 4-digit passcode and remember that if you ever turn off your phone or reboot it, you will have to enter your passcode the first time, only after that will Touch ID work to unlock your phone. It is also quite likely that after the setup process finishes you will be told that there is an iOS update since my phone had only iOS 7.0 on it and before I did anything else I installed the iOS 7.02 update.

encrypted backup. Since my backup included my email account information and since all my mail and contacts are stored in the cloud, as soon as the restore finished and I went into Mail I only had to enter the passwords for my Office 365 account and for the 2 Outlook.com accounts I use personally and everything was back. Lastly, media such as music, photos and so on have to be synced, they are not included in the backup. I decided to unsync all my music from my iPhone 4S before since I figured I would like to take a look at it again anyways to see if I really want it all on my phone. I can easily put all my 26 Gb of music on my 64 Gb phone and have room to spare, but I really don't use my iPhone a lot for music since I am very big into audio books and if I am on a long flight or waiting somewhere I rather listen to an audio book than to music. OK, good luck, once you have your new iPhone 5S setup and it's all good I suggest you do a restore of your iPhone 4 by hooking it up to iTunes. This will reinstall iOS 7 and wipe everything. Once the restore finishes you would normally go to your phone and go through the setup process of selecting language, country, entering your Apple ID etc. I would then just disconnect it and give it to your friend and he can go through that and set it up the way he/she wants.

Hi Anita, If you restored from a backup and didn't get your home screen layout back you can try to just restore again.
