Well i got my replacement iPhone 5 back from apple today a new device, Before sending the old one back i had made a backup copy to iCloud and iTunes on the laptop.
I'm trying to restore the iPhone using iTunes on the Laptop, Which i did and everything was back apart from the apps, I tried to sync the apps from the Laptop and it went through the loading bar steps, 1,2,3, 4 etc and it just says Sync Cancelling.
So i'm trying to restore the phone again, But i'm sure that wont fix this hiccup i'm having... I would try iCloud but my internet is too slow for that, But if it came to the worst i could use iCloud i suppose.
Any ideas ???
:)

I'd be tempted to start as new device tbh. Transfer the contacts, but otherwise leave the pc alone.
...is it worth re installing iDooms?
-
Just finished another restore.. No apps restored again.
How long should i wait for this to finish, I don't see any Sync wheel turning on the iPhone or any Apps popping up..

Going down this road, iTunes has tested my patience enough. :)
Sorry if i seem grumpy, Well i am kinda, Havin'g to sort through 240 apps now then, Dont need half of them really ;D

Apps don't restore, if you had the phone save all apps to the PC/mac you can drag n drop to the phone otherwise it's App Store, purchased, then re install each desired app.

Yep it wouldn't do that mind for some reason kept cancelling.
90% done now id say doing it (manually) from the app store.

iTunes? Good luck with that. Handy for wiping iDevices accidentally though...

How do you do this with android ? Back up to computer to an Android type of iTunes ?

Android handsets are simply seen as external disk drives, you drag & drop whatever you want once it's connected to the PC.

Ah okay, So you back it up to the PC in a folder or something..

Yup. No different to gayTunes, only you have more some control over what it does.

This replacement iPhone 5 i got end of November 2013 has now turned faulty, Apparently a Logic Board Failure or something >:(
-
So yet again sending back to Apple for my 4th yes 4th Replacement iPhone 5 32GB Black. Really don't think i can trust the iPhone 5 any more.
1st: Dead Pixel (Day of arrival was like this)
2nd: Faulty Battery (Lasted 12 months)
3rd: Logic Board Failure (Lasted just over a month)
4th: ........................
Really need to find something to replace it with when i get the replacement i intend to sell it.
-
5's do appear to suffer from build issues, had a few failures in the office, top lock button being a common failure.
-
i'll stick to my iphone4 then.....unless anybody leaves a 5 in the back of my cab ::) ;D

Guess you're ready to crossover to the dark side (Android) then.

How have the 5S model's been behaving overall ?

I do have a Asus MeMo HD 7 16GB android tablet, When the iPhone was working it felt more like home sort of thing using iOS seems less complicated and more smooth.
Originally I was planning on keeping the 5 till the next gen iPhone came out rather than the 5S, Just don't know if this next replacement will last till then :-\
