How to backup iPad

How do I back up iPad?

Since you have iOS 5.1.1, you can back it up directly to the cloud.  In Settings > iCLoud > Storage and Backup > iCloud Backup on.  Then choose Backup now.

  • How to backup ipad??i forgot passcode...i dont want to lose my picture

    plsss help me

    Too late to backup; you'll be backing up the passcode you cannot remember.
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode

  • How to Restore iPad Backup

    I'm having to repost this because it appears my previous post mysteriously vanished (there was quite a bit of anger in it).
    Having serious problems with my MacBook Air has forced me to switch to my MacMini as my primary computer. I connected my iPad and was then prompted weather I wanted to transfer apps or not transfer them. Obviously I chose transfer, but apparently iTunes decided to delete a handful of applications without prompting me before doing so (all but 4 apps chose to sync, which makes little sense). One of those apps included a notepad containing items that are fairly essential (without which may literally cost me my job).
    Since I don't want to loose my job on the account of iTunes randomly choosing to remove data for no reason, does anybody know how I can go about restoring the backup it should have made prior to choosing to randomly delete apps?

    This can't really be right. I've got a few hundred apps, when I plugged it into my MacMini it asked if I wanted to transfer and I clicked yes.
    ALL my apps (a couple hundred) except for 4 transfered to the MacMini. I'm certain that a large percentage of those that did transfer were purchased on my MacBook Air, then installed via sync on my iPad. Again, all but 4 of my apps transfered with no problems. I found an existing thread that seems to indicate the same thing is happening to others...
    My question regarding backup is the backup that occurs whenever you connect your iDevice. It performs a backup sync before it does everything else. I had to wait forever for it to complete this phase once I connected it to my Mac Mini (since it had to do a full backup as opposed to a partial). My hope is that this backup include backup of app data... Of course I also am now afraid to re-connect my iPad as I'm worried if I do it will overwrite this existing backup... But I'm also afraid to do a restore as it appears to say it will reset the iPad to factory basics, leaving me wondering how the backup that is created is supposed to work...

  • HT201302 how to backup photo besides camera roll? (iPad 2, 4.3.3)

    I've seen many post said plug in your devices, right click and import, Thats only import my photo in camera roll, i've created few albums inside, and how to backup those albums i created?

    Updating will not cause you to lose data but things can always go wrong. You should definitely backup before you update. I assume you have music on the device that was not purchased in iTunes and synced with a different iTunes library. You can transfer these songs back to your computer with third party software such as TouchCopy.

    How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and only offer so so apps like IMovie and GarageBand ? While other developers are offering much better apps like pinnacle studio for video, Cubasis and Auria for music production, apple has not showed much growth in terms of innovation. While there's nothing wrong with making an app like GarageBand where "anyone " can make a song, how about something for real musicians or an app not so basic as it get for video editing? After spending 0ver $700 on an ipad I'd be willing to spend more than $5 for a better video or audio app.

    First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. 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.

  • How to restore iPad without updating?

    How to restore iPad without updating? Why this stupid apple didn't put two buttons for restoring and updating iDevice.. they should include  "RESTORE ONLY"

  • Going completely computer-free -- how to backup photos?

    My sister-in-law, who is not very fluent when it comes to computers and technology, will be going "computer free" soon and buy an iPad mini. (She will get rid of her clunk old Windows machine.) She only does simple email, Skype, and downloads photos from her digital camera to her PC to look at. I think an iPad mini would be great for her.
    I know that iCloud backups up almost all of key data, email, etc. The key challenge, though, will be how to backup photos that she takes with her digital camera, uploads to her iPad, and then deletes the photos on her camera (to save space).
    I also know that PhotoStream backups up photos taken taken from the iPad. However, I think she could eventually run into these issues:
    1) If she take more than 1000 photos (unlikely, but could happen)
    2) When you import photos using the Camera Connection Kit, the photos do not go into the Camera Roll (they go in the "Last Import" and "All Imported" albums) and thus do not automatically get backed up. You can select the photos and then click Share --> PhotoStream, but she may forget to do this.
    I'd like to find a solution that would back up all her photos automatically on her iPad to a cloud service. The closest I could find is the iDrive Photo app, but you have to manually start it each time and select the photos to backup. Dropbox does automatic backup, but only the Camera Roll.
    Anyone have any good ideas?
    Thanks,
    Tony

    Photo Manager Pro.
    1. You can sort your photos by dragging them around
    2. Import photos using W-Fi
    3. Import photos using File Sharing
    4. Run slide show with music
    5. Email more than 5 photos at one go
    6. Hide photos in passcode protected folder
