HT4623 iPhone 4 will not back up?

My iPhone 4 will not back up? I keep getting an error message saying back up session failed. I have tried deactivating the firewall, i have tried changing the time zone on my computer. I have uninstalled and re installed itunes. What do i do now????

Obviously since you have iOS 7 you're a developer. As a developer, you signed a NDA with Apple not to discuss the iOS on a public forum. Please log in to the Developer Forum using your credentials and ask for help there, lest you risk having your credentials terminated.
Thanks, and best of luck to you.

My iphone 4 will not back up when it syncs. A comment comes up stating it cant save back up to my computer?

My iphone 4 will not back up when it syncs. A comment comes up stating it cant save back up to my computer? I have enough space on my hard drive, I have the new version of itunes and iphone software, and have tried restarting my computer several times. I ran apple diagnostics which found no issues! I'm not sure how to resolve this issue, please help me.

I kept getting this last week. Really annoying. I found this solution:
Remove (delete) ALL photos and videos from your iphone. Reboot it. Connect to your pc again.
This worked for me, however I've since taken some more pics and it doesn't sync again, so I'm not sure what permanent solution there is, although I've read lots of technical ones by googling it.

HT1766 Iphone 5 will not back up. Getting error message and I have deleted the older backups. How do I resolve this problem?

Iphone 5 will not back up to iTunes. I have never had this issue before but it has been consistent for the last two months. I have read a few discussion boards and restarted and deleted older backups to no success. Please help! I also tried backing up the phone to my other computer and it is still stating an error occurred.

Its reading iTunes could not back up this iPhone because an error occurred.

Iphone 4 will not back up on windows 7?

My iphone 4 will not back up to my Windows 7 laptop. It either hangs up infinitely or says it cannot write to the disk. This happened on the previous version of itunes, and after deleting and reinstalling itunes it finally starting working again. After loading the most recent v of itunes it started again. I have reinstalled itunes several times with no change.
I am running it as an administrator and allowing it to write to the folder. I cannot update from the last ios 4.x version because it never gets past the backup step.
Any help will be appreciated.

iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
* Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
* Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
* Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
You will have to turn on "Show All Hidden Files & Folders" to see them. Navigate to that backup folder & delete the entire contents. Try again after doing so.

HT4910 My iPhone 4 will not back up to iCloud! Help please!

For some reason my iPhone 4 will not back up to iCloud when I press the back up now button in settings.

What happens when you try?

HT4489 My iphone 4s will not back up my contact list to the icloud. Not sure why!! any ideas?

My Iphone 4s will not back up my contract list to the icloud. Not sure why? Any ideas. I have tried everything!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I assume you mean sync, not backup.
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

Iphone 4s will not back up

My iphone 4s will not back up to icloud.
Storage informs me I have 4.7 GB free from 5.0 GB.
I see nothing at icloud on ANYTHING.
I have just gone through the menus on the phone and hit backup which started.
Informed it would take about 40 mins, but stopped after about ten
Anybody had same problem, and how was it fixed please.
Would be most greatful
Thanks

Thanks for that.
Thought it was ment to be an automatic thing.
Just press "Back-up Phone" and off it went up to icloud.
No such luck.
Marketing people just tell you any old rubbish.
It would be ok if they said "You have to do lots more to get it to work", but they don't.
Bit like Microsoft
Settings on icloud on my Mac will not set photos to back up, or import to iphoto on the Mac
Seems I need to update iphoto at £10.99. More expense.
If I did not have a Mac, would it back up the photos to icloud I wonder.
Looks like I might buy Photoshop, forget about icloud, and use Google Drive or Drop Box instead.
Thanks for your help

HT4623 iPhone 4s will not boot after trying to install ios7 beta 4. Stops at apple logo with progress line under it. how can I reset it or get it back up to do a restore then try the iOS 7 beta 4 install again. Issue was probably caused by disconnection

My iPhone 4s will not back-up because it is over capacity due to a lg. amt. of "other" data. I don't have a lot of other data however. How can I correct this?

My iPhone 4S will not do a back-up because it is over it's capacity due to an excessive amount of "other" data. However I actually have very little other data. How can I correct this. As it is now I can't even take a picture! Thanks!

Create a manual backup in iTunes, then restore it, restoring to your iTunes backup at the end. This will usually correct this. If it doesn't, then the problem is contained in the backup and you'll have to save as much of your data as you can, then restore it as new without using your backupo.

IPhone 4S will not back up or complete sync in itunes

I recently received a "new" aka reconditioned iPhone 4S from my mobile providers insurance company after wifi / 3G failures in my original 4S. I have been able to restore from a back up I made of my original phone but I have three problems with this phone I am looking for advice on.
1) phone will not back up manually to my computer in iTunes (back up button/menu options are greyed out)
2) phone is not recognised over wifi (box is checked)
3) sync over usb will transfer data to phone but does not complete in iTunes - stuck on "waiting for items to copy" (step 5 of 5) I have read multiple posts on this but the solutions offered have not worked in my situation.
I have restarted my Macbook, hard reset my iphone.
iPhone 4S OS 6.1.3
MacBook Pro Retina OS X 10.8.4
iTunes 11.0.4
Driving me nuts so hope someone can help.

Follow the troubleshooting steps in this article: iOS device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.

IPhone 4s will not back up after upgrading to IOS 8.1

My phone is supposed to be backing up automatically, but I keep receiving a message saying that I have not backed up in over 4 weeks.
Each time I try backing up manually, the screen pops up asking for my ICloud ID and password, I enter that, then it looks like it starting the backup, but then the screen pops back up asking me to sign in again. It seems to be in a virtual loop that will not allow my phone to complete the backup.

Hello Brenden,
I followed all the troubleshooting tips. Everything is set properly, so my phone should be backing up automatically, but is not.
When I try to back up manually, it will start, then a pop up asks for my ICloud Password (again! which it already did), I enter the password and it returns me back to the screen that gives me the option to back up manually. The message at the bottom say "Last Backup could not be completed".
I keep going through the same motions over and over and over again with no results.
I am in a perpetual loop with this and the phone will not back up, either automatically or manually.
-My device is connected to a power source (the computer)
-The device is connected to the internet (my home Wi-Fi)
-The device screen is locked
Is there a way to go back and down load IS 06? I did not have these problems until I upgraded to IOS 8.0, then 8.1.
I thought the bugs were FIXED!
As you can tell, I am quite frustrated with this problem and am concerned that I am unable to back up my phone.
Can someone please help!
Thank you,
Cweiss2

HT4623 Iphone 3gs will not ring

My IPhone 3gs will not ring on incoming calls. Rebooted phone, did hard reset and nothing works. Volume is up and phone is set to ring.

First check to see if you have your phone on slient if its not on slient then theres a problem. When you had jailbreaked your iphone it messed up your system and what I would suggest is that you go to a Apple store not AT&T but "Apple" and tell them your problem then they will replace your phone like they did to mine when my sound was not working as well. Hope this help :]
