Siri responds to “What time is it?” better than other inquisitions (e. g. , “Would you tell me the time?”, etc. ).
Although you can use any USB-to-iPhone charger, use the one that came with your iPhone for best results.
If you have automatic backups enabled, you don’t need to back up again–your phone will have done so when you plugged it into your computer. Check the date of the latest backup under the “Backups” section to confirm that your phone’s data backed up. When backing up your phone, you can choose either iCloud, which backs up your phone to your iCloud account, or “This computer”, which saves your phone’s data on your current computer.
If you have “Find My iPhone” enabled, iTunes will prompt you to disable it before restoring. Do this by tapping the Settings app to open Settings, scrolling down and tapping “iCloud”, scrolling down and tapping “Find My iPhone”, and sliding the switch next to “Find My iPhone” to the right to disable the Find My iPhone feature. You may need to enter your iCloud password to complete this process.
Click the circle next to “Restore from this backup” to enable it if it isn’t your default option.
The overall phone restoration time can take quite awhile–generally around 20 to 30 minutes–depending on how much data you have to restore.
You can place a new passcode on your phone at any time from the “Passcode” tab in the Settings app.
