    What to do before selling old iPhone?

    Hi, I'm sorry if this is an old topic. I did a search in this forum & didn't get a direct answer. So I have an old iP4 & iP5 that I want to sell or maybe give away for Christmas. I did some research on what I need to do before I sell/give away the phones. I saw something about deactivating...

    My Laptop doesn't recognize iPhone but iTunes does?

    I want to get some pictures & movies off my iPhone 5S running iOS10.1.1. My Asus ROG laptop doesn't have my iPhone show up in "This Computer" when I plugged it in. I have no "errors" in Device Manager. I go to iTunes & it sees the phone just fine. I plugged my phone into a different laptop then...

    How do i fix my huge "Documents & Data" storage problem.

    I have an iP5S. 32 GB. running 9.3 iOS. I tried to upgrade to iOS 10 today but iTunes said I didn't have the storage space. I looked on my phone it says Capacity 26.5 -Available 342MB!! I was shocked. I plugged the phone into my PC & launched iTunes. It says I have 2.3 GB free. So I'm not sure...

    How to prep an iPhone 5 before I sell it online?

    Ohhh okay it probably was an iCloud issue my friend had with his sold phone. Ok so to be clear. I turn off "Find my Phone". I do the factory reset like you described. When the new owner gets the phone & goes to activate it the there would not be an "iCloud Activation lock" issue, correct? What...

    How can I store & make readable all txt mesaages from ip5S to my PC?

    My job might be switching us to android phones. I've had an iPhone since the 3G came out. I'm pretty sure if we go with a different line of phones I will lose all the txt history I have on my current 5S. (That's true correct?) I have messages going back years with announcements of engagements...

    How to prep an iPhone 5 before I sell it online?

    Wow cool! I would not thought of the "find my phone" setting. I read somewhere to turn off iMessage as well, should I do that? How about iTunes if she ever used it does she need to log in & deactivate the phone on there? It doesn't seem like you should have to but a friend sold an 5S after just...

    How to prep an iPhone 5 before I sell it online?

    I have my aunt’s old iPhone 5 & she wants me to sell it on eBay for her. She is a bit of a techno-phobe so I’m sure she hasn’t done anything to get it ready to sell. I’m not even sure she ever used iTunes. She just handed it to me & said “see what you can get for it”. So I’ve heard there is...

    Do I need to delete old iCloud backup before I do a new one?

    I have an iP5S 32GB. I have a 20GB iCloud account. My last iCloud backup was a couple months ago = 19GB. If I want to do a new Backup do I need to delete the old backup or will the system just overwrite old data into new data & add whatever has changed since my last backup. I have a PC cloud...

    Wow that is interesting to know. I guess I'm not the only one who has had this issue. I'll definitely go to the Genius bar & have them check it out. Thanks for the tip. :-)

    iPhone5S turning itself off when exposed to cold air for even a minute or less.

    I have an ip5s that was running 7.1 until yesterday. I live in NYC & its been damn cold here the last few weeks. I sometime want to take pictures of the snow in the park or whatever. I'll have my phone, it has 60-90% battery life. On many occasions over the last few weeks I can take my phone out...

    iPhone Weather App: After update to 8.1.3 I don't get details on wether app.

    I'm curious if anyone else has noticed this. Monday I had my 1Phone 5s running OS 7.1. I use the built in iPhone weather app all the time. It seemed like a new feature but I could select the city I was in or another from my list. It would show the temp & forecast. If you touched the screen again...
