Hey EmilyEliza,
As you are clearly aware, it is important for you to have backups of your important data, including all of these photos you are currently keeping on your iPhone. While it is possible to use iTunes or iCloud to do backups of your iPhone, the problem becomes how to access those backups if you have deleted the photos from your iPhone. Once you have done the backup and then removed the photos from the iPhone, the only way to access the photos is by restoring the backups to the phone. See this article for information about backups made from the iPhone -
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
If you want to easily access the photos once they are off of the iPhone, another approach to this would be to import your photos from the iPhone into an application on your Mac, such as iPhoto. To learn how to do this, use the steps in this article -
Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
Once those photos are on your computer, it is still important to back up those photos to somewhere else, so you can be sure of their safety before removing them from the iPhone. Your Mac’s Time Machine application is one method of doing this -
Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

  • HT201317 just backed up my iphone to the icloud and updated my software.  I clicked on "delete once downloaded" but now can not find the pictures -- 470 of them.  How can I access them?

    How can i access all my photos after backing up my iphone to the icloud?  I clicked on "delete once downloaded" but now can not find them.

    You can import your camera roll to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
    If you're upgrading your phone, I would recommend that you backup your old phone to your computer using iTunes.  Restoring an iTunes backup to your new phone will be much faster than restoring an iCloud backup, and possibly more reliable too.
    To back it up to iTunes, connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, then go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now.  The go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
    When setting up your new phone, when given the option, choose Restore from iTunes Backup and restore this backup to your new phone.  It will include your camera roll and other data; restoring the backup will will also sync your apps and other iTunes media from your iTunes library to your new phone.

  • I had backed up my IPhone 4s on iCloud on Jan 19. I am now trying to do another back up but it says the time required is 7 hours. It appears to long a time for 1GB of data stored on the iCloud. Can someone help me please?

    To be honest, that sounds about right.
    For example on my 8Mbps (megbits) down service I get around 0.4Mbps upload.  That is the equivalent of (very approximately) 3Mb (megabytes) per minute or 180Mb per hour.  Over 7 hours that would be just over 1Gb.
    Obviously, it all depends on your connection speed, but that is certainly what I would expect, and that is why I use my computer for backing up, not iCloud.  So much quicker.

  • Just downloaded iCloud and LOST my Contacts.

    Just downloaded iCloud and LOST my Contacts.  When I tried to send a text message from my MacBook Pro, there were almost NO contacts left.  How do I reverse iCloud and get back to my original settings?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Kelly.
    Try deleting the iCloud account from your device and trying again.

    Buy the songs that your friend put on the iPod that you liked. They had no right to give you the copyrighted music when they sold you the device.

  • Im having trouble backing up my iphone 4 to icloud

    Im having trouble backing up my iphone 4 to icloud, anyone have any suggestions how i can fix this? I have tried resetting all the settings on my iphone but nothing works

    If you get the message "Backup not successful",  I had the same problem.
    My solution was to turn off some apps (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap my device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options) and try a manual backup.  If it didn't work, turn off a few more apps and try a backup.  Keep doing that until the backup works.  Then try adding in some of the last batch of apps that were previously turned off - the objective is to find the app that causes the backup to fail.  For me, I suspect that the one app I found had a bad data file that, when included in the backup, caused the backup to quit.
    This can be a long process if you have a lot of apps that you originally turned on for backups.

  • I'm having problems backing up my iphone 4 to icloud since 13/04/2012. First it says it's going to take about 5 hours, then it says backup failed. Following instructions-connected to wi-fi, plugged into PC

    I'm having problems backing up my iphone 4 to icloud since 13/04/2012. First it says it's going to take 6 hours, then it says backup failed. Following instructions-connected to wi-fi, plugged into PC & locked the phone (though never had any problems like this before), but still no difference. Any ideas/similar problems?

    unfortunately there are tons of people with this issue but Apple has not given any answers for us to fix this issue yet. I wish they would allocate more people to solving these problems when they roll out new versions of itunes along with new hardware.

  • I just downloaded iCloud on my PC and noticed that fewer than half of my photo stream photos have transferred over to my PC.  Why is this happening and how can I get the remaining photos?  All of my devices are charged and have perfect internet signals.

    I just downloaded iCloud on my PC and noticed that fewer than half of my photo stream photos have transferred over to my PC.  Why is this happening and how can I get the remaining photos?  All of my devices are charged and have perfect internet signals.  Thanks in advance for any tips and insights!

    It's probably happing because photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days (even though your last 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted).  When you enabled photo stream on your PC you would have only received photos from the last 30 days.
    To transfer older photos to your computer, create a shared photo stream that contains them and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To backup your iPhone, you can either use iCloud on your iPhone, or use iTunes on your computer.  Take a look at the support article below to learn more about backing up your iOS device.

  • Why can't I back up my iPhone using my iCloud?

    My family just recently switched from T-mobile into AT&T, and my T-Mobile iPhone 5s has absolutely no service at all but I am still able to use it with WiFi, I have been trying to back up my things from my T-Mobile iPhone 5s into my icloud because I received a new phone from AT&T, but my T-Mobile iPhone is not letting me back up anything from my phone into my iCloud.
    How else can I back up my things into my iCloud?

  • After updating to iOS 8.3 I can now no longer back up my iPhone 6 to iCloud?

    It says I do not have enough storage space. But I do. It has been backing up perfectly fine until I updated to iOS 8.3 and now it says I need an extra 3.4 GB of storage space? I have all apps turned off for backing up except my photos. I only have 1.3 GB of photos. No other old backups or anything. I can't figure out what this other 3.4 GB of space is and why this just happened after updating to iOS 8.3. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

I say yes and after downloading it another message showed up saying it ocurred an error with this symbol (-1) and then mi iPhone died and showed on the screen to connect it to itunes, when I connect it again itunes told me I had to restore it and when I put restore it began extracting the software of my iPhone and when it finished another message showed up telling me it ocurred another error and that they couldn't find the dispositive. I tried to make the same process again and it was the same. Hope someone could help me, I would really apreciate it.
    Error-1 generally indicates a hardware failure.  You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • I backed up my iPhone information with ICloud but it mixed up contacts between me an my dad how do I get my contacts back

    I backed up my iPhone today and it changed all my contact, is there any way I can change my contact back to the way they were before I backed it up without going to my home computer, I can use a different one but not the originnal since me and him don't talk any more. Thank you for your help!

    Usually it means that your calendar has been synced by something other then icloud. If it was an email account you just need to set up mail account and it will populate. To check if your calendar was synced with cloud you can go to www.icloud.com and sign in. Once you do check under calendars if you have any info.
