  • Usually i back my IPhone with ICloud, after installing IOS 5 it asked me to restore from I Tunes what i have to do?

    usually i back my IPhone with ICloud, after installing IOS 5 it asked me to restore from ITunes what i have to do to restore all my contact, applications and others?

    If your iPhone does not search for a wi-fi connection before you are asked whether you want to set it up as new phone or restore a backup from iTunes, then I guess you have the same issue as highlighted in this thread:

    iCloud back ups can only be accessed via wi-fi that's why you are not granted this option, I have the exact same issue.

  • HT1766 trying to back up iphone to icloud

    I keep trying to manually back up my iphone to icloud but it starts then it says could not be completed- can anyone help? My iphone has never been backed up.

    Make sure that you're connected to Wi-Fi and plug your iPhone in to charge. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and make sure that iCloud backup is in the ON position then tap Back Up Now.
    You can also use iTunes to backup

  • ITunes can't back up iPhone to iCloud

    I don't understand.  If I'm NOT backing up iPhone to my computer, but instead want to back it up to iCloud, why do I get a message in itunes that says "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough free space available on this computer.
    But I'm backing up to iCloud just for that reason, because I know I don't have enough space on my computer.  If I did, I'd back up my iPhone to my computer so I have control of it, not the Cloud. But I have no choice for a backup.
    Do I not NEED iTunes to back up to iCloud? Do I just back it up via my iPhone??

    Forgot -- one simple fix -- reboot phone LOL Done.  iPhone is backing up to iCloud

  • HT4859 backed up iphone to icloud, notes gone from iphone

    I backed up my iphone 4s to icloud yesterday and now all the notes I had on my iphone are not there anymore.  They show up in my mail but not on my phone. Why did this happen, how can I keep it from happenining, and how can I restore my notes to my iphone?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you stop your back up, it will leave an incomplete back up in your iCloud storage allocation which you would need to remove from settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage. It will not however affect anything on your phone.
    The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
    What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • How can I back up iPhone to iCloud manually?

    I have iPhone 5 with iOS 8.0.2. I used to be able to go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, and then be able to see when was the last automatic backup and I could "Backup Now" if I wanted. I am set up for automatic iCloud backups. Now when I go to Settings>iCloud, there is an item "Storage", but there is no "Storage & Backup" and no button for "Backup now" and no information as to when was the last automatic iCloud backup. Am I missing something?

    It's now Settings-iCloud-Backup (between Passbook and Keychain on my device). Tap Backup and then you should see Back Up Now.

  • Back up iPhone to iCloud and Macbook Pro?

    I recently had to restore my iPhone, and it was from my MacBook Pro cause I don't know how to restore it from iCloud. Is there a way to back it up on both devices?

    Well I haven't updated my signature. I think all of my contacts got swiped from iCloud when I was trying to sync them all to my iPhone, Macbook Pro, and iPad 2. So I'm hoping if I restore, they will come back. How do I restore from iCloud?

  • HT204053 How do I put info back on iPhone from iCloud

    How do you put info from iCloud back on iPhone

    Ok, my confusion. The songs are still all on my computer? Only the devices are backed up to Cloud?
    I was worried that if I turned off Match and Cloud that my music would be gone. They sent me a message that all my songs were on Cloud.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought.

    I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought. I connected my iPhone to my computer and sync'd it hoping that it could download my purchases from the itunes store and then put them back on to my phone but no such luck. When i look at my iphone on my computer and look at tones, they do not show up at all. However, if i click on the "On This iPhone" tab and click on "Tones" the deleted ringtones and altert tones show up...they are just grey'd out and have a dotted circle to the left of them. I also tried to go to the iTunes store on my phone and redownload them and it tells me that i have already purchased this ringtone and asks me if i want to buy it again. I press Cancel. I know when i do that with music it would usually let me redownload the song without buying it again but it wont let me with the ringtones...so how do i get them back? any help would be greatly appreicated

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • If I restored my new iPhone from iCloud backup, and I delete the old iPhone backup to make room on iCloud to back up my new phone, will it delete everything on the new phone?

    If I restored my new iPhone from iCloud backup, and I delete the old iPhone backup to make room on iCloud to back up my new phone, will it delete everything on the new phone?

    I have this exact same issue.  Replaced my iPhone 4s with the new iPhone 5s, setting up my new iPhone 5s to restore from iCloud.  This completed and now I am unable to delete my old iPhone 4s iCloud backup (consuming 15.1 GB of my 20GB allocation).  How can I delete it, so that I get my 15 GB back?  I am not going to invest in additional iCloud storage, because I will be 15 GB down from the off.

  • If Iq backup my iPhone using my icloud can someone else using the same Apple ID as me back up their iPhone to icloud?

    If Iq backup my iPhone using my icloud can someone else using the same Apple ID as me back up their iPhone to icloud?

    If they sign into your iCloud account with your ID, their iCloud backup would then be in your account.   However, they would also be sharing your iCloud account and any data they sync with the account (contacts, calendars, etc.) will be merged with yours and the merged list will appear on both phones.  They would also be able to access your email account and their photo stream photos would be merged with yours (as you would be sharing the same photo stream).  Furthermore, if they are using iOS 7 and turn on Find My iPhone while signed into your account, their phone will require your iCloud ID and password in order to be turn off Find My iPhone, sign out of iCloud or erase and reactivate their phone.
    Unless you wish to share all this data, and have the other person's data merged with yours you should do this.  (iCloud accounts are really designed to be used by a single person.)

  • My daughter's iPad is backing up to my iCloud, which is how we set it up originally. Now she has her own iPhone with her own iCloud. How can I get her iPad to back up to her own iCloud?

    My daughter's iPad is backing up to my iCloud, which is how we set it up originally. Now she has her own iPhone with her own iCloud. How can I get her iPad to back up to her own iCloud?  Her iPad is taking up 3.4MB of my 5MB. I need my space back!

    I suppose ya.  If she deletes my account from her iPad it won't affect my account, right? 
    Yes, that's correct, it won't affect your account or your devices in any way.
    Use the delete account button in the iCloud settings.
    Then enter her iCloud details in the new screen that appears and log in. She should then be returned to the screen above but with her Apple ID at the top, enable the services she wishes to use and then tap the storage & backup option and ensure that iCloud backup is turned on.
