HT4859 can i back up to icloud and not have my kids see my stuff on their ipads?

I want to utitlize the icloud and be able to save things.  I have my iphone registered under the same account as my kids ipads and ipods.  I want to still see there backup stuff to protect them but not have them see my backup stuff.  Can this be done?

Not if you all use the same account and Apple ID. They would have the same access as you.

  • Can I delete pictures from iPhoto and not have them removed from the "Picutres" folder on my computer?

    I am trying to save space on my computer if I can...

    Simple answer: yes.
    But... you need to proceed very carefully or you might delete the wrong things.
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.
    If you have a Managed library, and also have copies in the Pictures Folder outside the Library, then they're the waste of space...

  • If I turn off iMessages on my iphone 5 and only use SMS, I am hoping this will this stop ALL my messages going to partners ipad? I only want 2 use SMS and not have any of my messages go to partners ipad so dont want to alter ipad settings.

    My situtation is this, my soon to be ex previously set up an ipad with both our numbers and we share a linked itunes/icloud account so if my phone is off he gets all my messages via his ipad that I DO NOT have access to his ipad at ALL. I can't set up my own itunes account (not yet until I leave him) otherwise he will know I am leaving him and it will cause major problems. So I was hoping that if I turn off iMessages on my iphone 5 and just talk to my family via SMS and NOT touch his precious ipad mini, that he wont be able to get my messages anymore and if I turn off iCloud storage and back up as well on my iphone only. Is this correct? Its just a temporary solution I am hoping. I have searched for days and hours and I just cant find this answer anywhere....
    Do I HAVE to turn off my phone number off or delete it on his ipad? I am really hoping I can just do this at my own end and not touch his ipad in anyway or have to change my itunes id YET. Once I leave him shortly, I will create a whole new ID etc.  I just wanna know if I can do this myself on my iphone only. Please any experienced help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so very much.

Its just a temp thing and I just want to take action myself on my own phone and want to know if this will work. Does anyone know?
    SMS messages will not go to the iPad Mini. It's not capable of receving them. If you have access and can do it without it causing a problem, remove your iPhone from the Apple ID Support profile:
    Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
    Log in if not already logged in.
    Click on "Edit Products"
    Click on the "X" to the right of the product.
    Click "Unregister"
    If anyone in your family uses iMessage, they will go to both you and your boyfriend unless you do that.
    To be completely safe, you may want to simply use an alternate message app such as Skype, Viber, Whatsapp (assuming everyone has a smartphone) until the issue is resolved. Google Voice will also allow you to send and receive texts to another number on your phone.
    Best of luck.

  • HT4859 Sleep switch on my iPhone 5 went bad.  Apple gave me another phone and the all the info was transferred to new phone.  I can't back up to iCloud.  CanI delete the old phone without losing all the info that was on it.

    Is it ok to delete old phone from iCloud and not lose iCloud data.

    If you mean to delete the old iPhone backup from Settings>iCloud>Storage and Backup>Manage Storage, yes, you can delete this and make a new one of your new iPhone. Nothing will be deleted from your iPhone.
    Be sure that you have all the data you want in your new iPhone.

  • Just bought a new iPhone and I can't back up to iCloud.

    Just bought a new iPhone and I can't back up to iCloud. The error message says "Not enough storage". When I go to Settings>iCloud, it gives me 2 devices, my old iphone 4s has 3.5GB, the new 4s has 0KB. When I go to delete the old backup the warning says "Do you want to turn off backup and delete all backup data from iCloud?" That is definitely not what I want to do. How do I keep my data from my old phone? All I am backing up are contacts and calendar, my photos have never been backed up on iCloud. Don't get why that is taking up all the storage.

    Deleting the backup from your old phone only permanently deletes the backup from iCloud.  It doesn't do anything to the data on your phone, or the iCloud data your are syncing with iCloud.  If you no longer need the backup of your other phone you can go ahead and delete it to free up space in your iCloud account.

  • I have an encrypted back up password that I can't remember and I can't back up to icloud. How to I get a backup I can use?

    I have an encrypted back up and can't remember the password. I can't back up to icloud either (maybe because of that). How do I get a backup I can use?

    Either remember your backup password, or you don't.

  • Ok I can't seem to get my apps,music, or photos from my iCloud from when I first setup iCloud on a iPhone 4. How do I get my things back from the iCloud and get them to my new device?

    If you no longer have the phone or have any Backup of it at all, you can re-download your apps and your content from the iTunes Store by logging into your Apple ID at settings> iTunes & App Store. Unfortunately you can no longer recover the data that was associated with those apps.
    So far as your photos go, you can recover any photos that were in photo stream and taken less than 30 days ago by logging in with your Apple ID to settings> iCloud> photos. Unfortunately you will be unable to recover any photos from your camera roll.

  • I updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?

    Without a backup on iCloud, there needs to be another device using the same @icloud address that is syncing to the notes.  Without that, there is no way to go back in time to create a backup before performing a major update.

    Contact your carrier and the police. If it was lost in a specific building, ask the people running it.

  • To save memory on my Ipad 16gb rather than store films, can I send them to Icloud and use my storage there and simply bring one back when I want to watch.

    To save memory on my Ipad as I only have the 16gb - rather than store films on the ipad, can i send them to icloud and bring back when i want to watch one. Or can I compress them to save memory. I know I should have bought the 32 or 64 gb ???

    You can't send films to iCloud, whether you can re-download them depends upon what country that you are in (films can't currently be re-downloaded in all) and whether the relevant film studios have agreed to allow them to be re-downloaded, and whether they remain in the store (content providers occasionally remove their items). There are a number of wifi-enabled drives that you can buy that allow you to stream films and tv shows to an iPad, so you don't necessarily have to store them on your iPad e.g. Seagate GoFlex Satellite (I haven't got one so I don't know how good they are)

  • HT4859 Hi Can i back up on iCloud & iTunes on my laptop too ! ie both ?

    Is it possible to back up on both iCloud & iTunes please guys !

    I have switched back and forth between backing up on icloud and pc, but typically leave it on icloud backup. then once in a while, change it to backup using iTunes, then switch it back to icloud. Best of both worlds that way.

  • How do I prevent files from being backed up to iCloud and iTunes?

    I have created the ios app using adobe AIR16 and flash cc. After submission of my aap into aapstore, I received a message from Apple with the following message –
    From Apple
    2.23 - Apps must follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines or they will be rejected.
    By using xcode we can prevent files from being backed up to icloud and itunes, but i want to know that  what is the way to achieve this by using AIR. While creating an explicit app id from apple developer account , i am not enabling icloud support.

    Within AIR you can set the File.preventBackup property to true on a directory or file to prohibit that content from being backed up to the cloud:
    File - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference
    This is all you need to call when you first create the folder or file to have it work with iOS backup guidelines.
