Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Setting up iPhone as new phone

BanjoB · 2012-11-26 20:58:37

Hi all. I want to set up my iPhone 5 as a new phone. For years I have been backing up from the iphone but I want to set up as new to reclaim some of that "other" memory. If I set up as a new phone will I still be able to keep my photos and contacts??.

Think this is possible alright.

i would do the following :
Plug iPhone into iTunes.

Restore

Set up as new phone

Enter iCloud details.
