How do I get my last iCloud backup downloaded on my new iPhone6?

You can only get the the iCloud files if you are on an iPhone and are restoring from a backup.
Have you set up your phone already?

How do I download pictures from icloud backup to a new device

I just bought a new iPad yesterday because my iPhone was stolen a few weeks ago. That phone was backed up to iCloud. How do I get the pictures from iCloud back up to my new iPad? I heard there is a short time period to retrieve them and I may be out of luck but need to try. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you for helping me. Technology is not my strong suit. I will explain how I got into this situation and then maybe there is another way to recover these photos:
I finally decided to upgrade my unlocked Canadian iPhone 3 to a 4S here in California.
The AT&T store personnel had a hard time getting the photos from the 3 to the 4S directly so they downloaded the photos from the 3 onto a computer and then to the 4S. I apologize, I'm not sure how to see if the photos are in the Photo Stream but I know they were on the Camera Roll.
After getting home, I was having issues downloading from iTunes. I think it was because the 3 was originally from Canada so the 4S kept sending me to the Canadian iTunes store when trying to log on. We decided to wait and take the phone to an Apple store to get help however the phone was stolen shorty thereafter.
A couple of days ago we bought an iPad and thought we should try and recover the photos from that phone. We had some friends who live in Canada access the account and switch it over to recognize that it is a US account.
My wife did set up iCloud on the 4S. So we assumed the phone was backing up everything, including the Camera Roll, when charging. Possibly not so.
My wife is pretty sure the photo stream was on as we didn't change any of the settings after getting it.
I would appreciate an ideas you may have.
Thank you & kind regards,
Doug

Hello, Anita.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are wanting to restore your new iPhone 6 from an iPhone 5 backup. This sounds like the iOS version of your old iPhone 5 may be newer than what was installed on your iPhone 6. Try going through the steps in the article below.
iOS: Unable to restore from backup of a newer device
I would also check to see the backup dates in iTunes and if the backup is located on iCloud instead of iTunes.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes
Cheers,

How to restore iCloud backups on a new phone?

The only way to access iCloud backups is to Erase all content and settings, go thru the setup assistant, and when prompted to restore from iCloud backup - choose that option.

Trying to choose iCloud backup on my new phone as I lost my previous one but it states"no iCloud backups are compatible with this version" therefore I can't set up my replacement phone! Any suggestions

You can't restore a backup that was made on a device running a more recent version of iOS. If your replacement phone is running iOS 6.0.1 and the one you backed up was running 6.1.2, for example, you would have to update your replacement phone before you could restore to the backup. If this is the case, update your phone by connecting it to your computer, and selecting Check for Update or Update on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings, update the phone and set it up as New. Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens again and choose Restore from iCloud Backup. You should then be able to restore your backup.

I am unable to restore from iCloud backup because the new phone has iOS 8.1.2 and the old phone has iOS 8.2? Any help.

I Have just bought an iPhone 6 and want to restore my iPhone 4s via iCloud backup to the new iPhone 6. The setup of the iPhone 6 halted because according to the new phone it has iOS 8.1.2 whereas the backups were stored using iOS 8.2 following my updating of the iPhone 4S recently. How do I jump through this hoop? How do I update the new phone to iOS 8.2 without serring it up first? Anyone, please help?

Update the new phone to the same version that has been used to create the backup. In your case, the new device has to run 8.2 to be able to use the backup made with the other device.
Setting it back to factory settings will install the newest version and after that you can use the backup made under 8.2
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

Sync icloud backup to my new phone?

I recently upgraded my 3gs to iphone 4s, and I wanted to sync the data from my old phone to my new phone. Is there a way i can directly sync the data from the 3gs backup in the iCloud to the new 4s? It would save me a lotta trouble.

Better to transfer data from iPhone to iPhone then setup iCloud.

After you have transferred the data follow the instructions here > Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.

Did you delete the account that was automatically set up on your new phone before signing back into your old one? If not, go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account at the bottom. Then set up your old account and turn your data syncing back to On. (When prompted, choose Merge.)

you will want to go to settings>general>reset>erase all content and settings. this will take you to setup assistant again to choose icloud backup.
*MAKE SURE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A BACKUP
*MAKE SURE YOU CAN CONNECT TO WIFI
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After you do the steps Janessa provided you, when the setup screen comes up after you restore the device, you will have to choose "Restore this Device from iCloud", and that will allow you to get all the information you have backed up on iCloud, and like Janessa said make 100% sure you 1, have a backup in iCloud, and 2, The backup in iCloud is somewhat up to date

Last iCloud backup info when phone not available

My wife's iPhone 5 has smashed screen. Need to know when last iCloud backup was. How can I do this without being able to look on the actual phone.
Also can anyone confirm that the entire camera roll would have been backed up?

If the phone still works you can do a manual backup to iTunes on your computer and not have to rely on the phone display.
