Restoring or Transferring Your iPhone Settings
When you connect iPhone to your computer, settings on iPhone are automatically
backed up to your computer. You can restore this information if you need to—if you
get a new iPhone, for example, and want to transfer your previous settings to it.
You may also want to reset the data on iPhone if you’re having trouble connecting to a
Wi-Fi network.
Automatically backed-up information includes text messages, notes, call history,
contact favorites, sound settings, widget settings, certain network settings, and other
preferences.
Restore or transfer settings
Do one of the following:
m Connect a new iPhone to the same computer you used with your other iPhone,
open iTunes, and follow the onscreen instructions.
m Reset the data on iPhone. From the Home screen choose Settings > General > Reset,
then choose Reset All Settings, “Erase All Content and Settings,” or “Reset Network
Settings.” Then connect iPhone to your computer, open iTunes, and follow the
onscreen instructions.
When you reset network settings, your list of previously used networks and your VPN
settings are removed. Wi-Fi is turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any
network you’re on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings are left turned on.
Delete a set of backed-up settings
m Open iTunes and choose iTunes > Preferences (on a Mac) or Edit > Preferences (on a
PC). Then select an iPhone and click “Remove iPhone.”
iPhone doesn’t need to be connected to your computer.
Note: If you use a Bluetooth headset or car kit with iPhone and you restore settings,
you must pair the Bluetooth device with iPhone again to use it.
