Can I recover an iCloud backup of a stolen iPad to my Mac?

My ipad and MacBook were stolen a few months ago and I have since replaced my Mac. Is it possible to recover my ipad's icloud backup to my Mac so I can get the pictures that were on it and backed up to icloud? (Photostream expired the pictures before I could replace the Mac)

You can't restore to a mac, only to another ios device that is connected to the same icloud account.

    Check the serial number (located on back/bottom) in this lost/stolen iPad database. However, most owners are not aware of this database and don’t enter the serial number.

    Also do a search, using the serial number, on your local Craig’s List. Some users list the serial number of a stolen iPad to thwart the sale of a stolen device.

  • I changed my appleID, it worked fine but now I can not restore icloud backup in a new ipad (old appleid does not work and it is grey colored so I'm unable to change it)

    Some months ago I changed my email address and so my appleID. Everything worked fine, but last week my ipad broke and when I tried to restore my icloud backup in my new ipad it does not work: it asks me for the password of the OLD appleID (it doesnt work); and in icloud configuration page the field for appleid is colored grey so I can not change it.
    any clues? thank you in advance

    My suggestion is to change apple id back. I know it is not something you want to hear, but there are suppose to be ways around it and usually they work, but not right now. I suspect that is consequences of Apple getting their servers ready for ios7. Normally in your situation - you should be able to get all your stuff back, but apps, and then you can sync those or download from icloud. But lately (last week) it does not seem to work normal way.

  • HT5787 If i know email ( but i dont have acces to it ) and i dont have secret questions how can i recover my icloud account ?

    If i know email ( but i dont have acces to it ) and i dont have secret questions how can i recover my icloud account ?
    I'n my company ( pawn shop ) i hope i transleted fine , i bought an iphone wich it seems to be ok at the first time.
    That was on 26.11.2013 ( as can be seen in my pawn contract and billing ) . after 2 weeks i found a client to buy my second hand iphone and the i saw my mistake it is icloud blocked i need that password so i can reset the iphone to sell it. how can i manage this problem ? i can provide all my billings, contracts, society data everything.

    If you know the primary email linked to the account but do not have access to it or the answers to the security questions, then the next best thing to do is call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask for Account Security.  They will ask you for two pieces of information from the account in order to unlock it.  The options are usually the security questions (each question counts as one piece), the credit card linked to the account, and either a device serial number or device verification code that they will send you.
    After this verification is complete they can send the reset link for your password to any email you choose.  Please be aware that if they verify you with something other than two security questions, there is a 24 hour wait before the email arrives.
    Good luck!

  • TS4036 Can you change the iCloud backup date to a previous backup date?

    Can you change the iCloud backup date? My iPhones processor went out and erased all of my information and saved that as my last iCloud backup, is there a way to restore my phone for the day before this happened to get all of my information back?

    Long story short, I had to make a clean install of OS X (mountain lion) when I was outside my country, and if I can't show the guy at the customs back home that I purchased the macpro before making the trip, I'll have to pay taxes for it.
    I could have filled the papers for that but I almost miss the plane and there was a long queue.

  • Why can't see previous iCloud backups

    I have an iPhone 4 and an Ipad 2, both use the same iCloud acount but the iphone doesn't have the iCloud Backup option activated, the iPad it does. On my iPhone I see that on the iCloud I have an iPad backup from the day before yesterday with the size of 2.3 GB, but when I try to restore it from the iPad it says there are not any iCloud Backup, the options are: config as a new iPad or restore from iTunes(where I don't have a recent backup).
    How Can I restore my iPad from that iCloud backup?

    iPad 2 IOS 6.3

    I'm sorry, and it might just be me, but I am finding your post a little bit confusing. The phone doesn't have iCloud activated but there is an iPhone backup in iCloud? Am I missing something?
    Since your devices are running two different versions of the iOS, I will assume that if you are trying to restore the newer version backup onto the device running the older iOS, that will not work. You can only restore backups to a device running the same or newer iOS than the backup was running.

  • How can i remove my icloud account from my sons ipad?

    can i remove my icloud account from my sons ipad?  I just discovered he is getting all of my text messages on his ipad!

    You can, but that isn't why he's getting your text messages.  That's being caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage.  Have him go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  To avoid getting each other's FaceTime calls, have him do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    Note: you can still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account even though you are using different IDs for iMessage and FaceTime.

  • How can I change the ICloud/ID Apple on my Ipad/IPhone?

    I've changed my Apple ID and I've changed the ID of Itunes on my IPad/IPhone.
    Now I want to change the IPad/IPhone ID on ICloud, but my IPad keep and store on my previous ID. How can I change the ICloud ID Apple on my Ipad/IPhone?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
    This article provides more information about Activation Lock.

  • I have only 1 ipad device, can I create 2 icloud accounts for the same ipad?

    I have only 1 ipad device, can I create 2 icloud accounts for the same ipad?

    Of course.
    To create the first iCloud account, open Settings > iCloud, type your Apple ID and follow the steps to set up iCloud.
    Then, to add a second iCloud account, open Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account > iCloud, type the second Apple ID and set up iCloud for this Apple ID.
    Note that one iCloud account will work as the primary account and the other one as the secondary account. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4020

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Cannot select ok button for icloud backup popup stating "This ipad hasn't backed up in 8 weeks."

    I cannot select ok button for icloud backup popup stating "This ipad hasn't backed up in 8 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked and connected to Wi-Fi"

    Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.  You won't lose any data by doing this.

  • HT204053 How can I change the iCloud id associated with my iPad?

    How can I change the iCloud ID associated with my iPad?

    To change the ID for:
    iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
    FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    iTunes, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
    iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  This will delete the account and iCloud data from your phone but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a new account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.  However, if you are setting up a new account with a new ID, when you delete the account be sure to choose Keep on My iPad, then choose Merge when you sign into the new account to upload your data.

  • HT1414 iPad2 blockiert und läst sich nicht mehr bedienen mit folgender Meldung: iCloud-Backup: Für dieses iPad wurde seit 2 Wochen kein Backup erstellt. Backups werden erstellt, sobald das iPad angeschlossen, gesperrt und über WLAN verbunden ist"

    bereits zum Zweiten Mal seit der Firmwareaktualisierung auf 6.0.1 steht das PAD2 still mit der Meldung:
    iCloud-Backup: Für dieses iPad wurde seit 2 Wochen kein Backup erstellt. Backups werden erstellt, sobald das iPad angeschlossen, gesperrt und über WLAN verbunden ist.
    Es geht nur mit der Wiederherstellenfunktion wieder in Betrieb zu nehmen.
    Sehr sehr sehr nervig,
    außerdem müssen alle CT Zeitschriften einzeln neu geladen werden.
    Der Telefonsupport hat außerdem nicht angerufen- sondern die Meldung per Mail geschickt ich hätte den SupportTermin verpasst.
    Ich saß neben dem Telefon, es hat nicht geklingelt- sehr schlechtes Benehmen vom Servicemitarbeiter.
    Das ist sehr zeitraubend und macht einen stink sauer.
    Trotz frohe Weihnachten.

    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Starten Sie das iPad mit gedrückter auf den Schlaf und Home-Tasten gleichzeitig für ca. 10-15 Sekunden, bis das Apple Logo erscheint - ignorieren Sie die rote Schieberegler, wenn sie auf dem Bildschirm erscheint - lassen Sie die Tasten los. Lassen Sie das iPad gestartet.
