HT4865 How can I view what was backed up in icloud

How can I view my stuff that was backed up in icloud

You are wrong. The data shown at www.icloud.com is not the contents of an iCloud backup. That is the data which is 'synced' between devices and computers - it is not a backup.
You should learn the difference between an iCloud backup data, and iCloud synced data. They are not the same.
Read http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859 about what an iCloud backup is and what it contains.

  • I had an apple ID which I used for iCloud.  I upgraded the iCloud account and changed the apple ID to a @me address. Now I can't view what was in my original apple ID account.  How can I get what was stored on the original account?

    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

    iOS backups are not viewable, by design. If you backup using iTunes, to view the contents of your backup requires third-party software. iCloud backups are not viewable at all. This is what gets backed up:

  • I forgot my Security Question and Security Info email. How can I reset my Secret Question or how can I find what was my Security Info email is?

    I forgot my Security Question and Security Info email. How can I reset my Secret Question or how can I find what was my Security Info email is?

    You won't be able to view and/or change your rescue email address until you can answer your security question(s). If you only have one security question then you should be able to reset it according to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170 :
    Reset your security questions
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
    Select “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
    Select “Password and Security” on the left side of the page.
    If you have only one security question, you can change the question and answer now.
    If you have more than one security question:
    Select “Send reset security info email to [your rescue email address].” If you don't see this link or don't have access to your rescue address, contact Apple Support as described in the next section.
    Your rescue address will receive a reset email from Apple. Follow its instructions to reset your security questions and set up new questions and answers. Didn't receive the email ?
    After resetting your security questions, consider turning on two-step verification. With two-step verification, you don't need security questions to secure your account or verify your identity.
    If you have more than one question then as you can't remember your rescue email address then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to view and/or change your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
    Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • HT4859 How can I see what I backed to iCloud or iTunes?

    How can I see what is backed up to my iCloud?  Pictures are what I am trying ti find.

    Your photo stream photos will appear on your iPad in the my photo stream album; photos from the last 30 days will still be in iCloud but cannot be seen on icloud.com. 
    Camera roll photos are only in iCloud as part of your iCloud backup.  However, you can't see them unless you restore the entire backup to your device.

  • HT201272 How can I tell what was purchased on my gift card?

    How can I tell what was purchased on a gift card?

    sussan-b,
    Does the bar showing used space have a portion labeled "Other"?
    Usually other is files that have been copied to the iPod directly, or space you have told the iPod to reserve for other files by enabling disk use.

  • How can I see what photos are stored on iCloud?

    How can I see what photos are stored on iCloud? I haven't used Photo Stream before so there are no photos on there that I can see.
    Help needed ASAP.
    Thanks

    If you haven't used Photostream there won't be any photos "actually on iCloud".
    Any photos stored as part of an iOS device backup can be viewed on the iOS device after restoring the backup to the iOS device. They can't be viewed online.

  • How can i download a specific back up from icloud?

    How can i download a specific back up from icloud? i want to download a backup that i back up 3 months ago. settings>icloud>storage&backup>manage storage and there i can see the back up that i want to download. but i dont know how to do it. i mean i dont want the back up that i downloaded last. i want to download the back up that i back up 3 months ago.

    Go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on your device and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud backup and follow the prompts.  You will be shown a list of available backups and asked which backup you want to restore from (see image below).  Choose the older backup, if listed.  (Note: you may have to tap Show Older Backups in order to see it.)

  • TS4036 can I see what was backed up when I did my storage upgrade icloud?

    I upgraded my icloud account, and my iphone backed up.  Now that I have lost my phone how do I see what was successfully backed up or not?

    The only way to see what was backed up is by restoring form the backup. All of you purchased content, app data and camera roll photos should be in the iCloud backup, but you can't actually see what is in the backup anywhere.
    Take alook at this.

    Put the clip into the timeline. Put the playhead over the clip. Double click the clip in the timeline. In the Motion tab adjust the sliders. Or use the Crop tool in the Canvas with the View popup set to Image+Wireframe.

    How do I view what's stored on icloud

    Hi Bliss,
    You can view some of what is stored by logging onto iCloud.com on a computer. Not everything that is backed up to iCloud is viewable. Here is what you can see:
    Mail
    Contacts
    Calendar
    Notes
    Reminders
    Pages
    Numbers
    Keynote
    and Find My iPhone
    Cheers,

  • How can I view and delete specific documents in iCloud?

    When I save a Pages document on my new iMac (Mountain Lion 10.8.2), the default location is iCloud. I have four related questions...
    1. How do I change the "Save" default location from iCloud to my iMac?
    2. How can I see what documents are stored in my iCloud account?
    3. How do I delete a specific document from iCloud once I have accidentally saved it there?
    4. How secure are the documents saved to iCloud?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, you can't if you are using iCloud.
    File > Open, from the appropriate application.
    File > Open. Select and delete.
    They are encrypted on the servers, if that's what you are asking. Your account is also password protected.
