When I try to manually backup my ipad2, I receive an error message stating "There was a problem completing the backup. Please try again later" ... and this happens each time I try to back up. Grateful for suggestions ...
Seems to be a common enough problem. I've deleted the partial failed backup from iCloud, restoring all 5Gb of storage. Then started a manual backup. After about 20 minutes I get the same error message. I have repeated this several times. According to my iTunes on my laptop I managed one backup to iCloud from there but it is pointless if u can neither backup to or restore from iCloud via my iPhone 4. I had hoped ios 5.0.1 would solve this glitch but ....
So much for "it just works".
I have yet to see any suggested fix that works for me. Any other suggestions?

There was a problem completing the backup - help.
Does anyone know why my iphone 4 continues to display 'there was a problem completing the backup, please try again later.'
My ipad2 backs up to the cloud perfectly which I updated to ios5 on 13th October. I have only used 300 megs so far.
Iphone was updated to ios5 on the 12th October. I have asked the iphone only to backup minimal data to rule out lack of space.
I have synced to itunes numerous times. I will attempt to leave it plugged in tonight and connected to wifi to see if it does it automatically,
but it did not do this last night when the ipad2 managed to do it. Basically, when I click back up now within the iphone it displays the
'there was a problem completing the backup, please try again later.' error after 10 seconds or so. Is it server overload still at this point or
what? Anyone got any ideas? ThanksStll no backup even after a night with iphone plugged in, locked and connected to wifi. Anyone got any thoughts on the matter.

ken yanowHi,
Have you try to un-select the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) setting?
Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
Click Advanced, and then click to clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
check box in the General area.
Click OK.
If the problem cannot resolve, the Run as administrator may selected.
Go to Office default install location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12.
Right-click EXCEL.EXE > Properties >
Compatibility tab.
Under Privilege Level, uncheck Run this program as an administrator
check box.
Best regards.

Backup Error: "There was a problem completing the backup."
Trying to get my iPad 2 to backup to iCloud and get a message that says "There was a problem completing the backup. Please try again later." Tried signing out of iCloud and then signed back in. Still have the problem. My iPhone backs up to iCloud on the same WiFi network without a problem.
1 ipod touch has this error. Another one will backup but shows the date as unknown. An iPad works fine. I can't believe it is a server error. I can run the iPad backup at the same time as the others and it works. Also I restored the touches to factory and the backups still failed. Swapped AppleID's and the errors followed the Id's. I wish there was a way to validate that the backups were good on the web side. In the manage storage on the one that fails completely, it show there is a backup with a size and allows you to turn off the apps that are backed up but I know it has never completed successfully. Even iTunes updates the date of the backup in the summary panel even though it has failed. This feedback in iTunes Summary and the Manage panel on the device could give a false sense of security. This needs some fixing from Apple. At least iTunes backups are working as I have restored aa few times now under iOS 5/iTunes 10.5.

There was a problem completing the backup
Hi,
I purchased 500go of space on Icloud, and was hoping to make a backup of the content of my iphone5 64go.
After a few hours got the message "there was a problem completing the backupé".
Tried again and got the message again.... still, it does seem to backup because my iphone slows down my connection network as it saturates my upstream. I can feel this when connecting to the internet from my computer: it all is slower and get back to normal speed when I turn off the wifi of the iphone.
Could it be possible that the backup is still happening although I got the error message ?Stll no backup even after a night with iphone plugged in, locked and connected to wifi. Anyone got any thoughts on the matter.

How can I back up ipad on icloud? I keep getting the message "There was a problem completing the back up. Please try again later." I have done so MANY times! I've followed the instructions ( I believe!) and the trouble shooting info does not resolve the problem. Can you please help?
I had this exact same problem because the router i had in my house was having interference issues and the speed was too slow to do it.
I would download a speedtest app on your iPad and see how fast your internet is. I think the app is called speedtest in fact. -

Hi chasore,
Are you still facing this issue?
Is this issue happening with all the documents you have. If yes, i would suggest try uninstall and reinstall. Or if the documents are located on some shared drive try to copy them on local machine and test again.

When going from the desktop to a website, I get the following message. "There was a problem sending the command to the program" Even though I get this message, I still connect to the website.
As reported in earlier replies, the annoyance disappeared after I upgraded to Roboform 7.5.6, from 7.5.4.

After updating to itunes 10 I now get an error message that says there is a problem with the windows installer package. I have tried all the things that others suggested but cannot download itunes at all now. Have I lost itunes forever?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

There was a problem creating the backup. Please try again later. ???
Get this messages every time I try to back up. Says there was never a backup but shows 2.9GB of iCloud space has been used so ???
Grrr!
Thanks for any advice!It solved itself, apparently. I didn't do anything other than try turning iCloud sync on every day or two, then off again if it failed. Eventually, it worked.
I did make sure to make regular backups to my Mac in the meantime, tho'. -
This happens both with hyperlinks provided in emails, and also with saved shortcuts on my desktop. It happens with all of them.
