iPhone 5 - Selective Restore
Hi All,
I have just received my iPhone 5 upgrade today...
I currently have the iPhone 4 and have used the iCloud to backup my device, i also ran a local backup to my laptop for piece of mind.
My question is:
When the iPhone 5 launches its setup wizard and I select the restore using iCloud option, can I stop the Apps from syncing?
I want to effectivly have a fresh iPhone with no apps but just copy over all my contacts, emails ect.
I have gone into the Settings -> iCloud and a left everything on the inital screen on
I then went to Storage & Backup -> Manage Storage -> My Device and turned off varuous Apps e.g. games I never play.
Will this stop them from migrating to my new iPhone 5?
Do I need to delete the Apps from iTunes as well??
Or is it better to clean up my iPhone 4 and delete any apps, run an iCloud backup and then just restore onto the iPhone 5?
Thanks
:-)
