How do you restore a backup from icloud

Hi All:
So I went into my notes today to get some information there and poof, nothing, it's blank..... trying to think if I shut off it being backed up or not I went into settings and all my icloud settings were OFF.
Well, I logged into icloud on my computer and all my notes are there.... whew....
Now... how do I get the notes from icloud to my iphone? I have all the options turned on in settings but it will not refresh or show my notes..
Am I missing something here?
Thanks,
Paul

Open the notes app and tap Accounts, then tap iCloud; see if they appear now. If they don't, delete the iCloud account, then sign back in. Start by saving any photo stream photos older than 30 days to your camera roll (unless already there) or you will lose them. Then go to Settings>iCloud, scroll down and tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud). Then sign back in to sync your iCloud data back to your phone. See if your Notes appear now.

HT4859 How do you restore a backup from iCloud? My notes somehow disappeared and I can't figure out how to restore

My notes disappeared for some reason. How do I restore from iCloud? Went into backup but couldn't find an option for restoring! Help?

The backup will first restore you app data and other settings, it will then restart and restore your camera roll photos, apps and other purchased media.
If you're concerned about losing purchased media you can always transfer them to your iTunes librarry first. To do this, make sure your computer is authorized for all Apple IDs used to purchase your media (in iTunes: Store>Authorize This Computer). Then connect your phone and in iTunes go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. This way, should anything go missing you can always sync it back from iTunes.
iCloud should maintain your last three backups. You will be asked to choose which backup to restore to after choosing to restore to iCloud backup and signing into your iCloud account during the setup screens.

How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?

How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone? I did something wrong as now nothing is on my phone but several questions such as language, etc. They keep repeating. When I turn phone completely off, the same thing happens when I turn it on. It is very frustrating now to have no phone service or anything at all on my phone.

It sounds as if the phone is waiting to be activated. Did you update software or something like that on the phone? You can either try to finish the Setup routine, or you can connect the device to iTunes on the computer and then after selecting the iPhone in the device pane, click on the button that says Restore a Backup.

HT4859 how do i restore documents lost from iCloud?

how do i restore documents lost from iCloud?

Documents do not get lost, they do get deleted. If you deleted - you need to look for local back up.
If you "lost" you need to check if they still in the cloud at icloud.com

TS3297 Hi, I've setup my new mini ipad today, restored a backup from icloud and all is fine. However, when I try to download my music, they almost completely download then an error message pops up saying "unable to download songs" - can anyone help pleas

Hi, I've setup my new mini ipad today, restored a backup from icloud and all is fine. However, when I try to download my music, they almost completely download then an error message pops up saying "unable to download songs" - can anyone help please?

So it appears iCloud/iTunes Match isn't the issue - the error message would seem to be complaining about where the music is being downloaded to. So with this in mind:
In iTunes select Preferences and select Advanced. The iTunes media folder should be set to /Users/<your account>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music. <your account> would be whatever your user account is. If you see something else there I'd guessing it is a folder you don't have permission to write to.

Back to the beginning...
What do you mean by "documents"? Word or Pages files, spreadsheet files?
Also, on your device, in Settings>iCloud, you have to have an on/off setting for Docments&Data. If not what kinds of entries do you have on that screen?

Use your back up on your mac/PC and re-add your contacts to Address Book or whatever contact software you use.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you are saying you have deleted them, you can't restore them unless you have a back up and can restore the whole device.

How do you restore to backup

how do you restore to last backup can only find factory restore

Easy but verified fix!
I had this problem with my 3Gs. After trying the backup a few times unsuccessfully, here's what worked for me:
1-Restarted my phone
2-Once I connected and it tried to backup, I canceled the backup message
3-Went to the phone's setting in iTunes (namely the Apps tab) and saw that suddenly the capacity bar was full rather than empty again
4-Removed some of the apps I didn't want on anyway
5-Hit "Apply" in the lower right corner
6-After the sync was complete, the phone still was not restored. However, all I had to do then was back it up from the most recent backup (which came when I did step 5)
7-Voila! The phone was back. Oddly, iTunes gave me the same error message at the end but my iPhone was working fine with iOS5!

How can I restore just photos from iCloud to my iphone?

I mistakenly deleted a number of photos from my iphone.
how do you restore them from icloud (WITHOUT doing a full restore of everything)?

Unfortunately, there is no other way(, but maybe they are still in your photo stream.)

How do I restore my photos from iCloud to iPhone

Can someone tell me if I can restore my photos from iCloud onto my iPhone thanks

I have 5 GB of backed up photos on the Icloud. The only change I've made was to copy the photos in my camera roll to my computer and then deleted all photos from my camera roll. Some photos that for whatever reason were stored on photostream have been deleted somehow that were there before a month ago. I can't backup my phone to the icloud because the last backup was way back in June and the photos I need for work were taken in August. Did Apple hire some imbecile from Microsoft to complicate something that was working perfectly? Whjere in the HE double hockey sticks did my photographs go??!!!! If I am suppossed to save the photos I take from phone by somehow going into the photo stream and saving it on my phone where it should have been in the first place lest they get deleted in 30 days, then why wasn't everyone on the planet notified of this change. What gives apple the right to delete my photos from my camera? No warning, no possible solution. just stripped from you. This isn't a back up, this is a screw up what is most valuable data to most people, their photos.

HT1414 Can you restore a backup from an old ipod to a replacement one?

Hi Got an Ipod which is broken and will be replaced - can I restore a backup from the old ipod to the replacement one to recover all my music, apps, contacts, messages etc?
Thanks Chris

You can restore from your iTunes backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
However, synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
