Can I merge two iCloud backups

I have 2 backs for iCloud one from my old iPhone and one for my new i5s.... Can I merge these

You have to restore the first backup to your phone, then save whatever data you can from it to your computer before restoring the second backup.  For example, you can save recovered camera roll photos and videos by importing them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  You can back up any recoverd contacts using an app such as My Contacts Backup.  You can open notes and email them to yourself.  You can do the same thing with Voice Memos.
In other words, you have to save the recovered data before restoring the second backup because each backup will overwrite whatever data is on the phone.

  • Can I merge two iCloud accounts?

    I have created two seperate Apple IDs and iCloud accounts. So I purchased some of my APPS in my MAC from the one and some from the other. Can I merge these two so that I dont need to log in and out from each account to update the APPS?

    No. See: Apple IDs and iCloud

  • Can I have two iCloud backup from the same device?

    Hi,
    I have done a hard reset on my iPhone 5S and now I am setting up as a new device. I do not want to use my old iCloud backup but I do not want to delete it. Just keep it just in case. But is there a way to create another backup, so If I want I can use the old or the new backup?

    Who's your carrier?
    That is weird, but the iPhone really is so picky when it comes to SIM cards and other assorted carrier locking annoyances.
    The only reason I could say you're seeing that is if you've got SIM card for a different country. (Canada/USA)

  • Can i have two icloud accounts on my iphone

    can i have two icloud accounts on the same iphone?

    Yes.  You can set up a second ("secondary") account on your phone by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with a different ID.  There are some limitations with secondary iCloud accounts to be aware of.  Only the primary account can be used for Photo Stream, Bookmarks, Documents, iCloud Backup and Find My Device.  Also, push mail only works for the primary account; secondary account mail is fetch.

    Can I have two iCloud accounts on one IPad?

    Yes, you can add a second ("secondary") iCloud to a device as mendi1 stated.  There are some limitations with secondary iCloud accounts.  Only the primary account can be used for Photo Stream, syncing Bookmarks and Documents, iCloud Backup and Find My iDevice.  Also push email only works in the primary account; only fetch mail is supported in a secondary account.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4020.

  • Can I merge my iCloud email account with my mobile.me email account?

    Can I merge my iCloud email account with my mobile.me email account?

    Are the usernames the same - e.g. is it [email protected] and [email protected] or is it [email protected] and [email protected]?
    If the former, they are the same thing, part of the same account, and deliver into the same inbox.
    If they are different then either
    a) One of them is an 'alias' on the same account and delivers into the same inbox, or
    b) You have two separate iCloud accounts.
    In the latter case you cannot move an address from one account to another; in the other cases they are already 'merged'.

  • Can i use two iclouds in two phones

    Hi all
    I m using two iphones which is 4s and 5c. Can I setup two iclouds in both sets separetly insted of using one icloud in two phones.

    To migrate one of your phones along with a copy of your existing iCloud data to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.

  • How to merge two iCloud accounts?

    By some stupid mistake I created two iCloud accounts. How can I merge them?

    You cannot merge two iCloud accounts.
    you can delete and keep one iCloud informations on iPhone and then connect to other one, then you just will need to merge the informations.
    But you will always have the 2 diferent iCloud accounts.
    keep me posted

  • Can i merge two accounts

    can i merge two accounts

    I would like to vote for this also. I have a long standing account with iTunes and so I have an apple ID. I don't use it that much, and I store the PW. So  when I got my phone I couldn't for the life of  me remember the PW so I created a new apple ID for phone, icloud, etc. Now I have all this stuff  in my iTunes that I would like to incorporate into the cloud. The whole beauty of the cloud is to synch everything. Not everyone who uses Apple products are 18-30. Some of us are older and forget things like passwords!  I went into my account and tried to edit my email to the one I now prefer and of course it says we can't do that, there is already an account using that email. Yeah, me!  I understand it could be a security issue. But my CC is on file with the first iTunes and now I don't think I can use that with the billing info needed on the phone, which I skipped in original set up. There needs to be a mechanism for this. Heck, I'd even be willing to pay for it.

    No really.  See:

    You can resolve the Messages and similar FaceTime problem by first setting them up using the Apple /iTunes ID email address and then adding another email messaging/calling email address and then deleting the Apple/iTunes ID email address.
