I have lost my i phone-4 recently. How to back up all the data from i cloud to my existing i pad? Pls help.
No. If there's no backup, there is no place to get the data back from.
Apps and music purchased from the iTunes store can be downloaded using the same ID used to purchase them at no charge. Any in app data is gone. some in app purchases may be gone. -
How to back up/sync two phones on one PC?
Aloha, This is my first post on this forum, so if I'm on the wrong board or if this has been discussed, I apologize.
About two months ago, I purchased two iPhone 3GS's (for my wife's and my use). I have been able to sync the phones individually on two different pc's, but am unable to figure out how to sync both on my desk machine (for back up/speed purposes). I can find lots of articles and instructions on how to sync one phone on multiple machines, but am unable to find info on how to do two phones on one computer.
Basically, I am unable to get the iTunes software to back up/sync the music collection on her phone--it says that all will be deleted in favor of the library (that is associated with my phone). I have tried logging in the iTunes software with her iTunes acct info, but I still get the same response.
Any information that you can provide will be greatly appreciated. For the record, our phones are both current (iPhone OS v. 3.1 [not 3.0.1]) and iTunes is v. 9.0.0.70--which according to the upgrade blurb said it has better multiple phone capabilities. (It looks and acts the same to me--so obviously, I'm not doing something right!) TIA.You cannot take itunes content from the iphone and put it on the computer. The iphone sync is one way. It is designed to sync with a computer, not as a stand alone device.]
The exception to this rule is itunes purchased content as described in an earlier post.
" If I want to mirror her iPhone on MY pc however, you're saying it can't be done?"
Yes, that is what I'm saying. The iphone is designed to reflect the content of the computer/library that it syncs with, not the other way around.
You need to copy everything to the new computer, then sync. When you sync to a different computer, it will erase itunes content from the iphone first, then sync to the new itunes library/computer.
"What's the purpose of authorizing multiple computers to connect the phone to if you can't do that?"
You don't "authorize" computers for iphone. You authorize computers to play protected itunes content on the computer.
Again, iphone will sync itunes content and pics with ONE computer at a time. This is the way it has been and continues to be.
Ipods are different, but the iphone will sync with ONE computer at a time.
As far as itunes content and pics go - the iphone mirrors the computer, not the other way around. -
HT4482 how to back up my phone
how to back up a second phone? I cant back up my phone since I had already backed up my first one.
You can backup multiple devices to iTunes, so I don't get the issue?
Do you realize there is an iCloud backup you can use as well? -
I backed up my I Phone contacts to ICloud. When I go to ICloud contacts at ICloud.com on my Mac computer, the list is not as I saved it; it appears to be my contact list on my Mac computer. How do I get my current IPhone contact list to show up.

Have you activated iCloud on your Mac? Have you configured iCloud to sync Contacts for to your Mac in System Preferences? -
I want to delete my old iPhone backup since I can not back up my new phone. Will I lose any pictures? Can you ever see what is actually on the cloud? Last, how do I delete the old iPhone back up. Thanks, been trying to do this for a long time.
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. -

how do i get my phone numbers back after i restored phone back to new?
Where were you syncing the contacts to, iCloud, the computer and Outlook, an email account? That is where you get them back from.

My phone was stolen, I have moved it in lost mode,but I can see that whoever has it,is changing phone name and can use it until I activate lost mode again.Can I do it permanently? How can I cancel ICloud back for the stolen phone, as I cannot delete the stolen phone backup (says that backup is being in use) and this is keeping memory occupied in the Cloud and I cannot back-up the other devices.

Hi jclarke64,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
I'm sorry to hear that your iPhone 4s was lost, and glad that you were able to upgrade.
If your iPhone 4s was backed up to iCloud or using iTunes, you can restore the backed up data to your new phone.
See the steps in this article for help with restoring from a backup:

All the best,

I can't back up to icloud on my iphone. I have 25 GB of icloud backup storage, but it won't give me access to backup to it. How do you fix. My phone is almost full. How can I start using the icloud storage?
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
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.
