    How to connect my iphone to the cloud so I can download Itunes

    Do you have an Apple ID, and are you signed in, go into your settings>iCloud to check.  You shouldn't need to download iTunes because that app is on your iPhone, could you give me more information of what you are trying to download.

  • Can I backup all the photos on my iPhone to the cloud, then delete them from my phone to free up space?

    Can I backup all the photos on my iPhone to the cloud, then delete them from my phone to free up space (but be able to restore them if I need them again?)

    Thanx for the link...here's my problem.  I built my windows pc and installed 2 hard drives...but the larger one isn't accessible right now...not sure why...but the solid state little one is full. This is a problem I need one of my kid's to help me address.  I have a lot of photos 'cause my husbands into photography, we travel a lot, and somehow thousands of photos he took, plus ones I took, plus videos I took, ended up on my iPhone...and they are different in a lot of cases from the photos on the iPad that we share.  I know I have 2 address this someday, bu don't have time right now...and I can't take any new photos or videos...or even add an app for that matter, until I free up some space on my iPhone.  We've already taken two brief trips where I wanted to use my camera and couldn't...and I was looking for a quick way to address my picture taking ability...because we are leaving for another trip in a week, and another one right after that.  This is probably way more info than you need...but there are probably duplicates...but until I go thru them I won't know. I could be wrong, but I thought when I backed up my photos to iCloud that all the photos in the photo app were backed up.  Maybe I'm wrong and it's only those in the Photo Stream...in which case I should do something about that as well, 'cause I've upgraded our storage plan twice now...and it is getting pretty expensive...and I don't even know how to use it other than to do a complete restore when you get a new device which I just did recently because my son wanted our old iPad for a graduation present, and I kind of wanted the better camera on the new iPad, so I got one...and it took a week to retrieve everything from the cloud on our wi-fi! I hope this makes some sense to you, and appreciate any advice you have to share!

  • I subscribed for itunes imatch - it works perfectly on my i-pad and iPhone - however on my macbook - my iTunes can no longer find my songs - i don't know how to make it look to the cloud to play my music

    i subscribed for itunes imatch - it works perfectly on my i-pad and iPhone - however on my macbook - my iTunes can no longer find my songs - i don't know how to make it look to the cloud to play my music - i think it keeps trying to find on the external harddrive where i used to keep my music

    Of course iTunes is looking for the music on the external HDD. Enabling iTunes Match does not magically change the location of the iTunes library to the cloud.
    To play the music either plug the external HDD back into your computer or create a new, empty library to use for streaming the iTM content. The latter can be accomplished by holding down the Option key when launching iTunes, choosing "create library" then enabling iTunes Match on the new library. DO NOT have iTunes scan your HDD for music.

  • How do I add music to the cloud from PC to my iPhone, iPad, and Apple tv?

    How do I add music to the cloud from PC to my iPhone, iPad, and Apple tv?

    icloud does not handle music, except for letting you download music you previously bought at the iTunes store.  For music, get it into iTunes on your PC, then connect your devices to the PC and using iTunes to sync it to them.  Not sure about Apple TV.  I think that might require buying a subscription to iTunes Match.

    How do I share a "Numbers" Document between a Macbook and an iPhone, using the Cloud?
    Will I be ablt to add data on the iPhone?

    iWork.com (beta) was made for sharing documents with other iWork users, not really for syncing documents between your own devices. Unfortunately, Apple has not updated the desktop versions of the iWork apps to use iCloud. Until they do you have to use iCloud.com in a web browser or iTunes to sync files.

  • HT1766 How to resolve if back up the cloud fails?

    I have deleted the backup for my iPhone on the cloud and am attempting to recreate it.  I keep getting the message that the "backup has failed".  Does anyone know how to force a backup or how to fix this?

    You can try making more space within iCloud (a partial or incomplete backup due to limited space will read as a failed backup) - or you can connect it to an updated computer with iTunes and back it up locally.

  • HT4623 How can update my iPhone to the last ios5. I dont want ios 6 as I want to keep google maps

    How can update my iPhone to the last ios5. I dont want ios 6 as I want to keep google maps?

    I disagree, Mr. WJ:
    If Matt had updated his iPhone via the Cloud and not by USB cable to his computer, the old IOS would still be on the computer and he would be able to "restore" to it. It would depend on what his backup settings were configured.
    For instance, I always backup to my computer at home. But, in the last few days I was notified that IOS 6.1 came out. So, if I wanted, I could install the update via WIFI from where I am at work. But, my old IOS would still be safe on my home computer that I can restore from if need be.
    And then you basically repeated what I stated about Google Maps being a app you can download now.

  • HT4539 how do I download information from the cloud.  I just purchased a new phone?

    How do you download information from the cloud?  I just purchased a new phone?

    What information are you referring to?  You may mean restoring an iCloud backup from a previous device.  Or you may mean adding iCloud calendars, contacts, etc. to your iPhone.
    In the former case (restoring a backup), the setup assistant should walk you through that process.
    In the latter case (adding contacts, etc.), simply set up your iPhone as an iCloud device in Settings > iCloud.

  • How do I move photos to the cloud on iPad

    Want to save memory how do I move photos to the cloud on iPad

    Hi Bsbraley,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Photo Stream is a service that can be enabled on your iPad, iPhone and computer.  This will not move your files from the iPad to the cloud, but it will make a copy of your last 1000 photographs or 30 days of photos in iCloud.
    If your goal is to backup your photos so that you can delete them from your iPad to free up storage space, then I would recommend you import the photos to your computer.   
    The articles below will explain in more detail:

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • HT204053 How do I access photos in the cloud

    How do I access photos in the cloud?  I've downloaded them to a laptop but I'm unable to delete them from the cloud.  it's used up all of my storage and I can't backup my iPhone because I don't have enough storage.

    If you're talking about photo stream photos, those don't take up any of your iCloud storage so deleting them won't save any space in your account.  You can delete them using your phone by opening your my photo stream album, tapping select, tapping the photos and tapping the trash icon.  Be sure to copy them out of the my photo stream folder on your computer before doing this or they will be deleted from your computer too.
    This article provides some suggestions for reducing your iCloud storage: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847.
