Can I restore an iPhone iCloud backup, to an iPod touch?

I'm almost sure it's possible, but I want to be absolutely sure.
Thanks!

Yes it's possible. You can restore an iDevice from the backup of another iDevice. I set up my iPod Touch by restoring from a backup of my iPad.
You do need to be running the same iOS on both devices.

Yes, I know you can with a backup on your computer so I would assume you can with an iCloud backup as well.

I can't restore my iphone 5S backup in my new Iphone 6

I can't restore my iphone 5S backup into my new Iphone6 , through the iTunes .
The system Keeping asking to input the password to unlock the iPhone Backup.
Anyone knows what password the system required ?
I have input the old phone password and apple ID password , but did not work.

The password would be whatever you set it to be.
It sounds like you chose to password protect your backup. You would need to remember the password in order to use the backup.

How can I restore my latest iCloud backup from my iPhone 4 to my new iPhone 5?

How can I use the my latest iCloud backup from my iPhone 4 to update all my apps on my new iPhone 5? I just registered it and it is a later version of the backup. Can I reboot it now that I have a more current backup from my iPhone 4?

Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process. If you have already set up your iPhone 5 you will have to erase it and go back through the setup again. If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you are restoring to you'll need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

Can I restore an iPhone 5 backup on iTunes to an iPhone 4S?

I had (still have) a 4S; I upgrade to the 5 on 10/25/12. I backed up my 4S and loaded that backup on to my 5 on 10/25/12, then I erased the 4S. Well, I just lost my iPhone 5 and I was able to restore my old 4S with the 10/25/12 back that I made (I must admit I was resonably satisifed with this). However when I was looking thru my 4S today (Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage Plan), it still shows my (3) devices (iPhone 5, iPhone 4S & iPad). When I click on the iPhone 5, it says the latest backup was on 11/21/12, which is basically 2 days before I lost it.
So my question is, can I restore my 4S to the 11/21/12 backup that I did with my iPhone5? If so, how do I do it. I do realize that anything I've done on the 4S since I restored it will be gone (only 1-day since I restored it yesterday). I was in Mexico for a week and lost it there which is why there I have a time gap.
clear as mud?

Can I restore an earlier iCloud backup with only one visible?

I had to restore my iPhone 3GS because attempting to transfer purchases from it somehow made it unreadable by any program. When I tried to Restore it, the Restore failed, and the phone told me to try Restoring again. However, while it was deciding that it had failed to Restore itself, the defective phone backed itself up over my saved iCloud backup (it backed up again before I shut off auto-backup, because for some reason, I couldn't access Settings until it finished mis-installing the Apps in queu).
I couldn't back the phone up on my new computer since the transfer never completed and iTunes crashed due to that failure. All the data that had been successfully transferred from my phone to my computer before the Transfer failed was gone when I got iTunes up again. Now I only have an iCloud backup with the failed Restore, missing a lot of my products, data, and functionality. How do I restore the original backup that wasn't screwed up?

I didn't have a Choose Backup option. In fact, when I attempted to Restore following this suggestion, my phone just immediately started the Restore process (from my computer, which had no backup saved to it, and it gave and continues to give no option to permit Restoration from iCloud) and ended up removing all data, apps, and accounts on my phone.
Now I have nothing.
My single iCloud backup appears to still exist, but it's useless because I can't do anything with it except delete it...and it's from after my phone crashed anyway, so it's not fully functional. But it would be better than what I have now, if I could actually get to it.

Can you restore a deleted IM message from an ipod touch?

Hello, my daughter has received some bullying text on her ipod via Skype IM chat which she has deleted but I now need to show them to the school.
Does anyone know if it is possible to retrieve deleted IM messages from the ipod (4th gen)? I have checked my PC to see if Skype has 'sync and stored it' but it hasn't. Many thanks.

Under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Include Voice Memos followed by selecting Apply and a sync. An iTunes playlist will be created where your voice memos will be available on your computer and any new voice memos will be transferred to your iTunes library automatically when syncing.

Restoring iCloud's iPhone Backup to an iPod Touch

Hi there.
My last birthday wasn't precisely the best, as I got my iPhone 4 stolen.
Had to deal with an Android device which isn't nearly as good as what I was used to have, so I decided to buy this fancy iPod Touch 4G 64 gb until the new iPhone arrives and see how it fares. My idea is to leave the Android phone only to make/answer calls and tether internet to the iTouch.
Problem is, I was thinking about restoring the stolen iPhone's iCloud backup to the iPod Touch so I didn't have to fiddle around with settings and stuff (and to not loose all my Chrono Trigger's advance ), but can't seem to be able to do that. I'm aware that those two are different devices and some things wouldn't work (like whatsapp without a proper mobile number), but it seems like a nonsense to me if you can't transfer the backup between two devices that are more or less the same.
I hope someone knows if there's a way to restore my iPhone's backup to the iTouch.
Thanks in advance.

Well, I finally managed to do that, weird thing is I had to wipe and restore the iPod Touch's and sync it with iCloud at the very beggining of the setup, obviously whatsapp doesn't work with the iTouch so it got automatically deleted, but for everything is Ok, I find the iTouch to be a tad slower than the iPhone though and miss the flash, but that's how it goes by now.

Can I restore an iPhone 3G from an iPhone5 Backup?

Basically I want to transfer everything possible from an iphone 5 to an iphone 3G... what are my options?
Thanks!

Well, you can't restore an iPhone 5 backup to an iPhone 3G, so there is nothing you can transfer except for contacts, calendars, apps & music...all of which you'll have to sync to your iPhone 3G.
Note: No apps that require an iOS higher than iOS 4.2.1 will sync to your 3G.

The following assumes you've been backing up to icloud all along.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your device. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
Let us know if this method does not work.

Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
I found the answer to my question.
When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

Can you restore an iPhone from a backup that was done from a different iPhone?

Here's the scenario. I've been backing up my iPhone 5 on iTunes so there's a backup file there but that iPhone is damaged and might not be recoverable. If I get a replacement phone, can I still use that backup file to restore the new phone despite the fact that it'll be a different serial number etc. than the phone the backup is based on? Can I restore an iPhone 4 as well as an iPhone 5 from that same backup file?

Hi Guchman,
Yes you can set up a new phone from a backup from another phone as long as the iOS is the same. Here is a support article that should help:
