Backup iCloud - How to access

Hello,
For the second time - my ipad mini has decided to WIPE all my files from Numbers and Pages and I am left with no idea why.
Can someone please help - I have really important info there and I think it was backed up onto the cloud, but when I try and access the cloud - it will not let me access it. This should be a simple case of just sending me a password to my email but when I click this option - no email is ever received and I have been in this situation many many times before with Apple. I am getting the strong impression that Apple just doesnt work that well.
Can someone please prove me wrong and help me to get into my backup info?
Thank you !!!!!!
Matthew

If you can't access the cloud, you won't see any iWork documents from iCloud when you open the iWork apps.
Firstly check the documents are actually in iCloud at iCloud.com
Secondly, why won't it let you log into iCloud, does it give you any error messages, what exactly is happening.

You can eirther I think go on ITunes or if you can get to settings you would just go to iCloud.

What can I do? I've forgotten my password and dont remember the answers to my sercurity questions, and no longer have access to the email account i used for backup. How do I get my icloud password reset?

There isn't really a way to "save" photos to iCloud currently with non-beta software.
iCloud is involved with photos in 2 ways -- backup and Photo Stream.
Backup of an iOS device includes Camera Roll photos but they cannot be viewed at iCloud.com -- the backup can only be used when doing a restore of an iOS device.
Photo Stream photos also cannot be viewed at iCloud.com; Photo Stream is designed as a method of transferring photos from one device to another and is not designed to store the photos. More info http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
There is a new feature -- "iCloud Photo Library" -- coming sometime after the iOS 8 release next week: http://www.macrumors.com/2014/09/12/apple-demotes-icloud-photo-library-beta/

How to access my backed up icloud files

I can't seem to figure out ...how to access my i-cloud account where my files have been backed up? I went into some i-cloud acct, but it does not have access to my files.

You can access all your iCloud data from within the apps on your phone (contacts, calendars, etc.). You can't access an iCloud backup except to restore it to your device.

I need to restore a calendar to my iPad. I checked Itunes but the iPad is not listed as I ahave never sync'd it before. I do have iCloud but not sure how to access to sync. Thanks for any help.

Need to find out how to get a calendar back on my iPad. Pretty new to Apple. Only one pf my 5 calendars was deleted. Do have iCloud backup just not sure how to access. iTunes has never been sync'd with iPad. Thanks for any help.

No problem. See the restoring topic of:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software

I am having the same problem I think. With mobileme you simply copy documents to the idisk folder and then synch. I cannot seem to sink that folder anymore. Any idea as to how I can simply copy folders to icloud and then access the MS Word and PDF file

Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
, so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.

HT4847 Why all My pictures disappear from My pictures, were My pictures goes if they are in iCloud how can i access to it?

Why all My pictures disappear from My pictures, were My pictures goes if they are in iCloud how can i access to it?

Your camera roll photos are only stored as part of your iCloud backup, if you are backing up to iCloud. Only photo stream photos are accessible in your iCloud account, and only by turning on photo stream. If you turn on photo stream, any photos in your photo stream will be found in the photo stream album in the Photos app on your phone.

Hi Myreiac,
Here's what the Apple Support site says you can do if you do not have access to a computer when your device has been disabled:
If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode.
You can access Find My iPhone via the Find My iPhone app on your iPad.
Good luck!
Cheers,

HT4436 Is there a way to connect my iCloud acct. so that my regular email address is my user name instead of the .me email address? I don't even know how to access my very old .me address.

Anyone know if you can replace your .me email address for your regular email address? I'm trying to set up my iCloud acct. on my iPhone but the default email adddress is my .me email which I never used and do not know the password for. When I use the Forgot Password link, it sends to my .me email address
and I never used it and don't know how to access that address. Arg. Anyway to clean slate and permanently eliminate the .me thing?

I copied the iTunes file from the external drive and it's in both places. I thought all I would need is the iTunes program (which I downloaded to new computer) and my iTunes library file. There must be something else that's missing. My iTunes library looks the same on the new computer as it does when I open it on the external drive. If I click on an iTunes library song from my new computer, it will only play if I have the external drive plugged in.
My back-up drive is a mess. I have multiple copies of music, video, photo, and document files and I don't know how that happened. ={ Obviously, I don't know how to back up stuff properly and there are back-up files extending over a 6- to 8-year period. I think all I did was just drag and drop the main folders from the back-up drive to the same main folders on the C: drive. Also (and I'm kind of fuzzy on this) Windows used to automatically save music files in a folder within my document files (which makes no sense to me). As my Jewish friends would say, "Oy Vey!"

I have an iMac OS 10.9.5 - Every time I turn on my system I get the message that it can not access icloud and to fix it using iCloud preferences. I do not want to access or use iCloud, how do I get the message to discontinue?

Hello mrmacjohn,
Verifying that any iCloud account that may be signed in is signed out should resolve this error.
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.

How to access the whole iTunes iCloud Library with an Android phone?

Hello all,
I am a newbie here, so please forgive me if I'm not following protocol here. I searched for the word "Android" in all of the support docs. and got 0 hits! Is there a corporate policy at work here?
I know that Google and Apple (and by extension Android and iOS) are competing hard for all of us techie music lovers out there who use both ecosytems. Well, Google Play wants to have my entire music library, Apple's ever at the ready with iTunes/iCloud/Match, and now I've even gotten solicitations from Amazon which has a "Cloud MP3 Player" with purchases ready to download that I made from Amazon in 2010, before I ever dreamed of getting MP3 files instead of a physical CD. I mean the liner notes had the lyrics to the songs right? Well, I enjoy looking at lyrics. Anyways, . . .
What are the best recommendations for how to access my iCloud music library with my Android phone?
Yes, one solution is to use both Google's and Apple's services and just duplicate everything everywhere. But, I'd just like to settle on iTunes/iCloud solution, but I have a brand new Android phone that I want to use. The iPhone 5 screen doesn't come close to my Motorola Droid RAZR Max HD! :-) Sorry, all you iPhone folks. You have all the app's., so I have to latch on to somethine for a reason why I stayed with Android!
Thanks,
Randall.

Apple is pretty much the only one who does not support other platforms and it will be their downfall in the future. I have bought a few hundred tracks (and one movie) from iTunes before the competition started to catch up. Their Cloud service just came into Finland but I've already moved on to others. I've also bought music from Spotify, Nokia Music and Xbox Music. I've been a subscriber of Nokia Music, Xbox Music and now Google Music. I'm also a Netflix subscriber and I have a local IPTV service that also provides movie rentals from various providers - and guess what, they also work on all platforms.
The reality is that today was the first time in a long long time that I've actually even bothered to open iTunes. Lack of platform support will destroy iTunes in the long run. Apple is starting to look like Microsoft once did. Today you can even get Office for almost every platform - even mobile devices.
Limited access and/or features is also one of the biggest reasons that turn people away from legit services. DRM protected music was the reason I had over 20,000 MP3s before it was removed from iTunes. When that happened I deleted all the old files and became a honest, paying customer.

Is there a training program for iCloud and how to use it effectively. I have downloaded the booklet but not sure how I access files, photos saved on iCloud.

I am trying to understand cloud but have very little information for a non technical person. Is there any product that I can access that will provide me with step by step details on how to access things stored in Icloud. I have recenly lost all my data on my external hard drive and thought that I could restore through icloud.

It doesn't matter whick account you use to download the app.
You have to sign into the app (or iCloud.com from a web browser on your computer) with his Apple ID & password.
Find My iPhone will only work if it was enabled in the iCloud settings on the device and it was powered on with a connection to the internet

When I forgot my password for home screen and it disabled my iPod, i had to reset my iPod. My iCloud had saved all of my data such as photos in storage or something. But I do not know how to access these photos. Any ideas?

How do i access my photos that were saved in icloud storage from before i had to reset everything. I know the photos can still somehow be accessed because icloud showed that space was being taken up for photos straight after i had reset the device and there were no photos there on the device at the time. So any ideas on how to access these photos from icloud? Any help very much appreciated, thanks.
