Backing Up iPad Simultaneity to iCloud and Computer

Is there a way to backup a iPad simultaneously to iCloud and a computer?

Simultaneously no. You have to do it separately.

How do you set up to back up iPad notes in iCloud? I turned on backing up notes in iCloud settings, and it asked me to create a .me account, which I did, but I don't see my notes anywhere on iCloud, and I never received a password for my .me account.

You'll find your notes under Mail in iCloud. There's a separate folder on the left that's labeled notes so you can access them anywhere. And your me.com account will have the same password as your Apple ID (in fact, you can log into iCloud with just your Apple ID, as the two accounts are permanently linked).

I'm restoring a new iPad 2 (shattered the original). Backed it up on the iCloud and have restored all apps, music, photo albums, etc. However, the photo stream has not activated, so no photos have downloaded. Photo Stream is fine on my Iphone and Mac.

Hello there, Tamghosh.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some good steps to use for troubleshooting the issue you're describing:
iCloud: Photo Stream troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989
Particularly:
I don't see photos in Photo Stream on my iOS device.
Check the following:
From your Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and make sure the slider is set to the ON position.
From the Home screen, tap Settings > Wi-Fi, make sure the slider is set to ON, and that your device is connected to a wireless network.
Ensure that Camera app is closed on the device where you took the photo. Photo Stream will not upload photos from an iOS device until the Camera app is closed.
Ensure your iOS device has not fallen below 20% battery power. To preserve battery life, Photo Stream downloading and uploading are disabled when the battery reaches this threshold. Downloading and uploading will resume once you charge your device, and the battery charge is greater than 20%.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Someone stole my ipod touch and i dont know how to get to my pictures on my windows computer. i did back up my pics to icloud. and, will Apple give me another ipod?

Hello Becky,
Have you double checked to make sure it hasn't been moved to a different page or folder? Double check your iPod's Restrictions as well to make sure it hasn't been disabled. To do this, head to Settings -> General -> Restrictions.
Default Apps that came with your iPod or Apple's iOS cannot be removed.

hello every body .. my ipad blocked with icloud and i dont remember the email or even birthday i've wrote I just remember the security questions ... what can i do in this case to restor my email back ?? thx

Do you mean that the iPad is on the activation screen ? If it is then does it not show the first letter of your email address and the provider e.g. similar to :
If that is what you are seeing then you don't remember any email account that you had starting with that letter with that provider ? If not then do you know if you have any of the account's downloads in your computer's iTunes library : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name ?
Or see if you can find it via http://appleid.apple.com : Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID
If you cant remember or find your id then you won't be able to use your iPad

iCloud only give so much space for free storage, then if you exceed the limit of 5gb you have to pay for additional storage.

HT201269 I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6. Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?

I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6.
1) Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?
2) Can I back up the newsstand to iCloud and save memory on the iPhone?
3) Can I back up the bookshelf to icloud and save memory on the iPhone?

1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

1. Create a backup of your iPad to iTunes on your computer or to iCloud
2. Transfer any and all photos & videos on your iPad to your computer.
3. Erase the iPad and restore the iPhone's iCloud backup to the device.

HT201253 I cannot sync my 5S with ITunes. I can sync my iPad with same cord and computer

I recently sent my 5S through the washing machine and got a replacement 5S. I am running Windows 7. I was able to "restore" it from iTunes without any issues other than I hadn't back up in a month. Now when I try to sync with iTunes it gets to step 5 of 5 and I get a "windows message that iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to shut down". I can sync my iPad using the same cord, computer, and program with no issues. I went through Apple support and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes under their guidance. I was then transferred to another level of tech support and got cut off. I have not heard back and have tried to reopen the case without success so I am hoping someone has a way to resolve this issue so I can back up my phone. Thanks

I had the same problem and this worked...

I have iPad set with iCloud and I want to set to iTunes

Option Set as new iPad in iTunes affect my data on iPad?

If you mean that you have content on the iPad and you have never synced with iTunes and you now want to start syncing with iTunes - if you set it up as new - you will erase the content that is currently on the iPad.
You can use iCloud and iTunes both - but you need to make the iTunes library on your computer your syncing library first before you can use iTunes.

How (and why) would one backup both to iCloud and computer?

First iPhone 4s; I use Windows 7 computer. While it is very convenient to have phone automatically backup to iCloud - given my early experiences with Apple and the sync of iPhone via iTunes hanging on the last step and never completing and I had to restore phone to factory settings - I am reluctant to trust backup only to iCloud. iCloud backup would come in very handy a) when traveling and perhaps not having the external drives I use for backups; and especially b) in case disaster hits iPhone and I need to restore.
Backup to computer is under my control, and it is easier to make multiple copies and store as much history of backups as I choose. In addition, I believe that iCloud does not backup everything. In additon to it NOT backing up music unless it was purchased from iStore, what else does it NOT back up?
So for the above reasons I am planning on automatically backing up to iCloud, AND backing up to computer weekly as well as prior to any software update, or other major thing I might do to phone. I'd rather have too many backups as insurance than not enough. It seems that it is less convenient to backup to computer, unless there is something I am missing. It seems that the steps are:
1) Open iTunes; connect iPhone via USB.
2) When it is recognized, on Summary tab move check mark from backup to iCloud to backup to Computer; click apply.
3) Eject iPhone; unplug USB.
4) Close and restart iTunes; connect iPhone via USB
5) Now iTunes will create backup file.
6) In my case I make copy of this backup file from C:\Users\Name\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup to where I want to keep history.
7) In iPhone now must turn back on backup to iCloud
Is there an easier way (set of steps) to backup automatically to iCloud, AND also make manual backup to computer?
Can I "force" iTunes to store computer backups to a different location than is shown in step 6?
Does iTunes automatically delete/over write earlier backups to computer? How much history does it keep? Am I correct that if I rename the backup file by pre-pending it with say "iPhone_" that iTunes would never delete/overwrite it?
Are there other reasons for taking the time to backup to both iCloud and to computer?
Thanks for cutting my learning curve on the important though often neglected issue of backup protection.

IPad syncing with iCloud and Exchange = problems ?

Greetings,
I am using Apple products since 2 years ago. Everything started with an iPod Touch 64 and things grew to an iPhone4, iPad and now, an iPad 2.
I also have a Motorola Xoom (Honeycomb 3.2 based), a Samsung Galaxy S2 and a HTC Desire Z with Android 2.3.3.
All devices are configured to sync mails, calendar, contacts, notes and tasks with an Exchange Server. Until iOS5 and iCloud, there were no problems whatsoever. Contacts created on any device used to replicate to the others without a problem, although the iDevices (iOS based) never understood “categories”, a resource commonly used in an outlook environment to help sorting things out.
Last week, Ibought the iPad2. Updated it and configured it to use the same Exchange Server as the other devices. Also, I chose to use iCloud.
After that, I noticed that on a daily basis, contacts would appear without categories, first day, a few, around 5. Second day, 10 more. Third day, more 20. After the second day, I also noticed that the “display as” field (also known as “FiledAs”) was starting to show names with Last, First order. Here in Brazil we sort names as First Last. Of course, outlook, all android devices and also the iPad were all configured correctly (First, Last).
The problem was getting bigger every day. Yesterday, 900+ of my almost 2000 contact list were mixed up, missing their categories and also had their first and last names changed in the Filed As field.
After deleting, editing, restoring backups etc. more than once, I have finally found that the iCloud is probably the culprit.
Changed my iPad config to keep from syncing with iCloud and configured it to backup locally.
Deleted all accounts in all devices, deleted all data from contacts. Configured the accounts and left the devices syncing. Restored a backup. All devices synced and received the contacts.
Surprise: problem solved. So far, no missing categories, no inverted First, Last names. Maybe if anyone find himself in the same situation, it might help.

I have the same problem. My MacPro isn't on Lion, as I have lots of software that isn't compatible yet. But I have 10.7.2. on my MacBookPro and iOS5 on my iPhone and iPad.
I would like to go to iCloud for those devices that are capable to run it, but I do not want to loose sync services for my MacPro which is on 10.6.8. Will iCloud and MobileMe be in sync until 30.06.2012, so I can use them in parallel, or do I have to wait until all computers are updated to Lion?
