How to find backed up files on iCloud?

Apple is giving me a replacement iPad, so the guy at the Genius Bar told me to back all my files up so that I can get my exchange product without losing information. A ton of really important documents are on some Apps I purchased, on my iPad. I set up an iCloud account today, and I downloaded iCloud onto my PC, and I've pressed "backup" on my iPad (I turned everything "on", so I'm guessing this means all my apps/data will be backed up onto my computer). I'm still really confused though, so I have a few questions:
a) Where is all of this data being saved onto my computer?
b) Do I have access to, say, the Notes I've backed up off my iPad on my PC?
c) I went to iCloud.com, but I see none of my actual files on my account. Is this normal?
d) How to I move all my backed up files onto my new iPad?
Thanks!

A. The data is not being saved on your computer. It is being saved in iCloud - assuming that you did setup everything properly on the iPad and did create an iCloud backup.
B. Yes. Log into iCloud.com using a web browser on your computer and you can access your notes.
C. Yes it is normal. You cannot see the files themselves in iCloud.com unless you are using the Apple iWorks apps, Pages, Numbers and Keynote. All other data is backed up in the cloud but individual files are not visible.
D. Restore from the iCloud backup that you created with the old iPad.

  • How to find back up file password

    accidently lost my back up file password, and after updating my iphone software, cannot get back my back up information.
    need help urgently

    You can't find it. If you could find it, there wouldn't be any reason to provide the option in the first place.
    Apple provides a warning about this - if you forget the password for your iPhone's backup, kiss your backup goodbye.

  • HT4859 How to locate backed up files on iCloud

    I restored my iPhone 4S on iTunes and it backed up all my files including my photos and everything on my phones has deleted but how do I find the backed up data? Plea help?
    Thank you

    I don't understand.  If you restored the data back to a device, it should be there.  What do you mean by "how do I find the backed up data"?  If you're trying to access a specific file in a backup on icloud, you can't.  You can only restore all the backed up data to the device.  Once restored, you find your data in the Apple apps like Calendar, Reminders, etc.

  • How do I find my music files in iCloud?

    How di I find my music files in iCloud?

    To Find your music You would Enter iTunes then do the following: Search for Quick links on the right> then Select Purchase> From there you can search for All Media that you have on iTunes, can all select  from the two options on the Right> All or Not on this Computer & then once you've selected your choice you can see what you have and what's not on your computer, but this only works for media you've purchases through iTunes. I hope this clears things up.

  • HT4873 How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com.  If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it.  (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
    If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
    In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album.  Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored.  Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another.  Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

  • How do I move a file from Icloud to my hard drive?

    How do I move a file from Icloud to my hard drive?

    From the appropriate application (eg, Pages, TextEdit, etc) find your file(s) in iCloud (use File - Open), then highlight (you can multiple-select) the files you want to move, and drag them to your desktop or another Finder location.

  • Lightroom - how to restore backed up files (not Lightroom catalogue) from one external drive to another?

    How to restore backed up files (not lightroom catalogue) from one external drive to another.
    I recently backuped my photo files from one external drive to another. The backup (carbon copy cloner) pointed to some corrupt files on the original drive.
    I have deleted those files and am finding good copies of them  in Time Machine backups.
    I want to get rid of the original external drive; use the recent backup as my main external and then back it up onto a brand new drive.
    What I am not sure about is how to point lightroom to the backups so it knows to look on the new drive instead of the old drive and all those exclamation marks and question marks go away.
    There are close to 60,000 images in numerous folders all with one 'parent folder.'
    My best guess is from Lightroom Help - Create and Manage Folders -  Locate Missing Folders
    Can I point to the one parent folder and all the subfolders will come back?
    Is this the process to recover files into lightroom and will there be a problem with so many photos?

    My problem is: Can I find it somewhere and recover it without re-downloading??

    Unfortunately the file is not stored anywhere on your harddrive. It has been deleted entirely.
    If you think this file block is a "false positive" and that the file is actually safe, you could do one of the following:
    (1) Download the file using a downloader add-on that bypasses this security check. I heard about this in another thread but haven't tried it myself (and also, I don't know which add-ons to trust for this!).
    (2) Disable the Safe Browsing feature temporarily to get the file, then turn it back on. There is a checkbox in the Options dialog:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Security tab, it's the "Block reported attack sites" checkbox. The other checkbox relates to phishing sites and I don't think it affects downloads.

  • Time machine working well but I can't find backed up files fast enough?

    Time machine working well but I can't find backed up files fast enough. When I look in Time machine backups I'm looking in a folder and I can't remember what it was, but I go back in time and the finder goes from 98 files to 100 files, how do I find which 2 files were the ones deleted? Going back and forth from past to present is a pain! I need to figure out which file it was faster? Have any ideas?
    With the new "Find" feature it actually highlights what you are looking for such as in Safari. Does Time Machine have a feature to highlight the files/folders that were deleted really from the present?

    It sounds like you aren't looking for any file in particular, but notice a change in number of files and would like to know what changed rather than knowing that a specific file is now missing.
    that's a good point, and it appears that TM is not setup to describe the changes over time. If I recall correctly, it has a plug-in ability, so maybe somebody will fill in that void.

  • How to delete back up data in icloud?

    How to delete back up data in iCloud?

    From previous posts:
    If you mean backed up in your iCloud backup, you can delete the backup by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, touch your backup and tap Delete Backup, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again.
    If you mean data synced to your iCloud account like contacts and calendars, you can either delete if from your device or go to icloud.com on your computer and delete it there.

  • How do I back up files and reinstall original disks on my Power Mac G-4 (2000)

    How do I back up files and reinstall original disks on my Power Mac G-4 (yr. 2000). I know that sounds basic but I have very few techno skills. So please "talk down" to me. I had a newer PC (2005) but the hard drive crashed and I am trying to resuscitate this old mac until I can afford to buy a new one. I am in the middle of writing a book (based on Steve Job's life) and must have SOMETHING to write with. Anyone have a better one they can loan me? I am in Maine on the coast. BTW this machine seems to have trouble reading or formatting most CD-disks. Can anyone recommend a type and brand that works well with this model? Thanks for any assistance anyone can render. Here is what I have:
    Machine Name:          Power Mac G4
      Machine Model:          PowerMac3,4
      CPU Type:          PowerPC G4  (2.9)
      Number Of CPUs:          1
      CPU Speed:          467 MHz
      L2 Cache (per CPU):          1 MB
      Memory:          768 MB
      Bus Speed:          133 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:          4.2.8f1

    Why do you want to reformat the drive?  Is it because the machine is running slow?
    Be sure to backup you important files, like the book, daily.
    The cheapest approach would be to try to figure out why the machine is running slow.  Be sure to try safe boot.
    You may want to run these "standard" fixes if the problem persists.
    1) Check the amount of free space on your harddrive.  You should have a several gigs free.
    2) You should run disk utility
          Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility
          a) verify the disk
          b) update your permissions.
    3) Try a safe boot.
         Shutdown your machine.  Hold down the shift key.  Poweron.  Wait awhile; wait awhile while you harddrive
         is being checked.
         http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
    4) Another way to correct filesystem problems is into single use mode.
         This page will tell you how to get into single user mode.
         http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
        Basically, you hold down the command + s key then  powering on your machine. The command key
        has a little apple symbol on the lower left. It is between the alt/option key and the space bar. 
    4) You may want to run applejack to clean up your machine.
          http://applejack.sourceforge.net/
    6) Run hardware diagnostics.  It's good for a sanity check.
    The older versions of ccc were donationware.
    Here are two utilities for making a complete backup of your internal hard drive.  I've recommend using one of these so that you can create a bootable system  on your external hard drive. ( PPC require a firewire connected drive. )  Once created, you can run your system from the external drive.  Hold down the option key on your keyboard then power on your machine.  This will bring you in startup manager click on the drive image you wish to boot then click on the arrow key to the right.
    "Clone, synchronize, backup. Schedule and forget it."

  • How to upload a PDF file in iCloud

    Hi everybody,
    I would like to know how to upload a PDF file in iCloud. I want to share some PDF files with my iPhone, MacBook and iMac.
    Thank you a lot!

    Yes, but the problem is will iBooks remember where I left off in that pdf file? Unlikely since it was deleted.  Also, what is handy about the kindle app is once you delete it an icon appears in the app to show that this file is in the cloud. I guess for reading pdfs the kindle app is better.  I am not saying that the kindle app would be that great for other things but at least with syncing and such it's much better.  Well, iCloud is meant for other things.  It's fine because I'll just use it for those other things and stick to the kindle app for reading pdfs.  Well I use endnote for reading technical pdfs, I'm just talking about novels and such on the kindle app.

    OASF=<SelectedFunctionName> - this tells the Framework to select this function in the given "Home Page" menu context.
    OAHP=<HomePageMenuName> - this is used ONLY with the OASF parameter, and it is used to establish the current menu context. It should point to a "Home Page" menu.
