  • How long does it take to back up my phone usually..?

    My phone shows that it takes 7 hours to backup up in icloud, (when it in charge and wifi on), for only 0.5G usage. Is it normal..?

    Turn around with this is 5 business days or less including shipping in both directions which is done via FedEx priority overnight.
    If a hardware repair is needed, more than likely your iPhone will be exchanged - to speed up the turn around.
    Before returning your iPhone, you will remove your SIM card. AppleCare will send you simple instructions along with a small paperclip for ejecting the SIM card tray.
    Be sure to erase all data and settings on your iPhone before returning it. Go to Settings > General > Reset and select Erase All Content and Settings.

  • How long does it take to back up my macbook pro?

    How long does it take to back up my macbook pro?

    How long TimeMachine will take is a function of: 1) how frequently you back up, 2) how much free space the backup drive has, and 3) how the drive is connected to the computer.
    1) the longer you wait between backups increases the data that has to be backed up and it also increases the preparation time. Letting more than a couple days between backups elapse isn't a good idea to begin with - who wants to try and redo 3 days of work - but it also seems to take longer than three daily backups.
    2) when your backup drive becomes too full, TimeMachine must 'look through' the oldest files and delete enough to make room for the newer files. This can take a very long time.
    3) backing up over WiFi to a networked drive or TimeCapsule is the slowest backup method and when you have lots to back up it can take a very long time. If your connection speed isn't good it gets worse. For all the advantages that a TimeCapsule appears to have, this alone was enough to make me rethink the idea.
    With a 17 day estimate I'm guessing you must be using a TimeCapsule.

  • How long does it take to restore firmware.My phone has been in recovery for 3 hours now?

    How long does it take to restore firmware on iphone5.The phone is only 3 week old and has been in recovery mode for nearly 3 hours now?

    - No. That is too long. What does the status bar in iTunes say the iPod is doing?
    - Terminate the sync. Force close iTunes if necessary then reboot the computer. Also reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try again. If still problem come back with what the status bar says when it stopped.

  • How long does it take to back up??

    I have just downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Software and when I connected my curve 9300 it begins the back up. The problem is it seems to get stuck on RMS Databases 12 of 13 records. I cancelled the first go after 20 minutes and the second go was still stuck 40 minutes later. Am I just being impatient or is there a problem???

    Fiona, in the Desktop Software, go to Device > Backup > Select Data and UNselect the RMS database to backup.
    Click to proceed and see if the remaining backup runs ok?

  • How long does it take to back up your iPhone it's been 6 hrs and still going!!!!!

    It's been 6 hrs and my iCloud is still syncing ..I don't think this is normal!!!

    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • How long does an intial icloud back up take?

    how long does an inityial iCloid back up take on a new iPad?

    Solution - turn backup off. Just means you will not have a backup to restore from but if you dont have a few hours to wait every time you need to restore the backup and up to an hour to wait every time you sync then you wont care.

    and you can restore any backup afterwards as yo see fit

    How long does it take to get my money back?
    Do I even getting my money back or not?
    Please I need to know!!!! :'(

    I had a similar experience yesterday. The Apple email that I got said:
    "In five to seven business days, a credit of xx USD should be posted to the credit card that appears on the receipt for that purchase."
    Your email should have said the same.
     Cheers, Tom

  • TS3992 i have 1200 pictures to back up on iCloud.  how long does this take?

    I have just signed up for i-cloud across my i-phone 4S, i-pod and Mac.  How long should it take to back up 1200 photos from my phone?  thanks

    you run speed test on your network. But never mind that. even with knowledge of that speed and size of that backup, I will not give you precise numbers, so here is an example - if your ISP is DSL and size of the backup is 1 Gb - backup may take overnight. If your network cable- way faster, but I have seen backups over 20 gigs. Your backup size is way bigger then one.
