My ringtones are still missing. I did an iCloud backup about 2 days ago and when I did the new 6.1.4 update my phone crashed. So ran the back-up I had stored to my iCloud. All my music is here minus my ringtones.

Not enough free space on iphone 5 to restore from backup

I got a new PC and installed the latest itunes. I followed this thread (https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141) to set up my devices (16gb ipad 2 and 32 gb iphone 5) on the new PC. The ipad worked great. However, I'm running into a problem restoring the iphone from backup. It's telling me there is not enough space on the iphone to restore from backup. According to the itunes summary I have 3 gb of space left on the iphone so I don't understand why it's saying this. I'm wondering what my next step should be. Should I try a restore? Or reinstall itunes? Since I was able to restore my ipad from backup I suspect it must be an issue with the phone. I've tried backing up the phone several times and then restoring but always get the same error message. Thanks for any suggestions.

iTunes ask me to restore from a old backup all the time when I connect my iPhone5.

Hi! My iTunes ask me to restore from a backup when I connect my new iPhone 5. I have done the backup process but it still ask me to do it. How do I get iTunes to understand that this is done?

 

I connected my iPhone and restore it from a backup from my old iPhone 4. It worked well. But when i connect the iPhone to iTunes it ask all the time the same thing.

1. this is a new iPhone bla bla or...

2. restore from a old copy. (strange is that it says that this was done 1982 all the time?!?!).

 

The MacBook Pro is new and I have the latest iTunes 11.0.1. (12)

 

Glad for any help!!

 

Best regards

iPhone Backup To External Drive with iTunes 11

I'm trying to backup my iPhone 5 to an External Drive since my Macbook Air does not have enough space for the backup. I'm using iTunes 11.01 and OSX 10.8.2. I've tried holding down the option key when opening itunes to create an itunes library on the external (succesfully) yet i still run into the same "not enough space" message. Any suggestions on how to change the backup location would be much appreciated.
