How to restore a backup from an iphone 6 to an iphone 4?
My iphone 6 had been water damaged and is no unusable. I had recently bought a used iphone 4 as a replacement. I had it activated and it is working fine. When I try to restore a recent backup of my iphone 6 to my iphone 4, it doesn't show up in the list and only shows really old backups from when I had an iphone 4S back in the day. Does anyone know of a solution to this? Tried a method that edits the info.plist. It did show up on itunes but reported an error stating corruption or incompatibility with my desired backup. Please let me know, thanks!

You can try to do an iOS upgrading before you restoring a backup.
- When you restore an iphone from itunes backup does it restore messages? I need to restore my iPhone 4S in iTunes, will I lose my messages or will it leave the messages from my most recent back up?
- WHATSAPP BACKUP! Why can't i find the backup conversation button in chat settings?

- Is there a way(without computer)to move my texts from my iPad to my IPhone? ICloud backup? Had to restore phone to last backup and lost texts? Hi, yesterday I had to reset my phone (IPhone 8 plus) to factory default and restore it to its last backup (April 15th). I also have an iPad mini, which everything is Synced. I got everything back on my phone (up to date) except my text messages. I'm not able to access my computer right now and have read you can get them back my backing up you messages to ICloud. Is there anything I can do to get them back on my phone (they are still on my iPad mini), without using my Mac?
- Does iCloud Backup Take up more space then iTunes backup? When I backup my iphone on iCloud it takes up 4.7GB of iCloud Storage. When I backup my iphone on my mac with iTunes it only takes up 2.3Gb Apple webstie says itunes backup will backup your phone exactly as it is and that iCloud only backs up important information. So why does backing my iphone take 4.7GB of iCloud space but backing up my iphone with itunes takes up only 2.3gb of space on my mac?
