Deleting the backup only permanently deletes the backup from iCloud. It doesn't do anything to the data currently in your account or on your devices. To delete it, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of the device that you want to delete the backup for, then tap Delete Backup.
You can't see anything in an iCloud backup, if that's want you're asking. You can only restore it to your device. You can, of course, see your other iCloud data.

Can someone pls help me?? Okay..I've been trying to fix this for DAYS now! When I sign in (under settings) w my new apple ID, then go to update or purchase something I cannot get the new apple ID to come up. It's still using the old one (which is disabled) ..please help!
Delete what? The ID's? They cannot be deleted - you just quit using it.
If you still have one old ID - that you have purchased content with - you are saying that the password no longer works with that ID? Did you try to reset the password for that ID?
Read this - instructions if the ID was disabled for entering the wrong password.

If it gets too involved - you can always contact support.

Hi out there. To capture a screen shot one uses: Command-Shift-3 or 4. I have done this for a long time. Now suddenly neither screen shot command works anymore. Suggestions how to get this useful function back? Thanks, Georgx
Command-Shift-3 and 4 works just fine on several Macs that I have here.
Try restarting your Mac....or post in the specific support area for your Mac model....for more advice.

I am having a lot of trouble downloading itunes.My latest error message is that MediaToolbox.dll is missing. I have been trying to fix this for three days now .And it all started with the last update .Can anyone help?
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

I've been editing images with ease for a long time but now the changes are not being saved.
I've been editing images with ease for a long time but now the changes are not being saved.
Also, it is not liking me adding a large ammount of images in one go?Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -
When I attempt to open iphoto, I get the loading icon in the working space/picture area. If I try to reinstall ilife '11, will I lose any pictures? Where, on the hard drive, are all my pictures actually stored?
You won't lose anything because you have a back up, right?
Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I've updated iTunes, checked all the network etc connections through iTunes and they are all fine. I've restarted my laptop twice, I'm an administrator on it, I've done the msconfig thing. It wasn't jailbroken or anything like that. It's been stuck at the same point on a progress bar for ages - before that, the progress bar completed fully twice, and still came up with the 'connect to iTunes' logo afterwards. I am at the end of my tether, and I need to fix this as soon as I can. Please, is there anything else I can try?
You voided your warranty when you jailbroke.
You surrendered help from Apple or this forum. This forum is barred from discussing jailbreak by the TermsOfUse.

How do I sync this iPhone 4s to his laptop? The phone was stolen last week and everything was deleted. I've been trying for over an hour to get it to sync.
That"s part of my problem, I dont get that option.
I get iTunes store and that's about it.
I've thought about "erasing/resetting" all settings but I'm afraid to do it. Or am I
missing something in iTunes?
Help please!

Can you share photos on i-photo between machines that use the same network or even between different accounts on the same machine? I know you can share music on i-tunes but can you do the same on i-photo? Thanks for your help.
Yes.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
You can figure out using it with another machine from that too -
I don't have ios4.3. and I don't know how to do it . I have been playing this game forever and now I can't . Please help me download it ...How do I do it..
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED W APPLE. IT WAS SETUP ON HER AUNTS COMPUTER WITH MY INFORMATION(AS FAR AS I KNOW BECAUSE I DID IT) AND I CANNOT GET ANYWHERE WITH THE FIND ME APPLICATION
Sorry about you daughter ipod.
Typing in all caps indicates shouting, considered rude, and is difficult to read.
Many simply do not read such posts.
Can't tell from your post, what the issue is.
Please explain ( not in all caps please) what is happening. Perhaps someone will be able to help. -
where are the patches that are being discussed all over in the media??? i have an iphone and ipad and have had no APPLE updates for a long time.
Thank you... one would think that if Apple needed to push out something so important they would make it more obvious!!!

iCloud Backup shows this message
iphone is currently being restored and will automatically back up when it is done.
My iPhone has been showing this for a long time.
is this because my old phone is still Wifi active?
This is a new phone all contacts and other stuff seems to have downloaded.this has nothing to do with your old phone (connected to wifi or not). It has to do with your wifi and new iphone. check wifi connect/restart router. then restart iphone.
