Hi rgegg1001, 
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. 
The article linked below will walk you through the process of backing up your iPhone to iCloud.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
I hope this helps.

    How do I backup my documents to the cloud?

    Just to expand on what Rysz said, iCloud - at this time - excels at letting you sync certain data between your Apple devices. If you have more than one Apple device (computer, iPhone, iPad, etc) then your calendar events from one device show up on another. The bookmarks in your browser can be the same on all devices - add a bookmark on your computer and it will be added to your iPad. Contact information, notes, reminders, etc can all be shared. If you have an iOS device iCloud can be used to back up important information - not the entire phone or iPad but your settings and configurations. Due to Apple’s initial iOS design iCloud doesn’t do a great job as a repository of data like word processing documents and it isn’t for backing up your computer data.
    If you want to back up your computer - and you really should - invest in a good external drive (or two) and use a backup program. Apple’s TimeMachine is a good first start but it is always good to have a second backup and many of us like having a backup that can be booted into. This is a clone and two good cloning programs are CarbonCopyCloner and SuperDuper! A clone is a backup that you can immediately boot your computer with - TimeMachine’s backup cannot do that.

  • How do I backup my music in the cloud to my mac

    How do I back up my music from the cloud to my mac?

    One of the key steps that you'll need to take is (after signing into the iTunes Store) open the Preferences & choose the "Store tab".
    You'll then be able to make sure that the "Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases" is selected.
    After that, you go to your Library - where you need to select "Music" - be it your songs or your albums. At this point you may see an iCloud icon right next to the selector - or not; if you don't see it, then you'll need to select "View" from the iTunes menu bar. You will then see on the drop down menu list either "Show Music in the Cloud" or "Hide Music in the Cloud"; that's your toggle which you use to unveil your Music in the Cloud icon.
    Now there is just one more preference that you may need to use to see all of your iCloud icons and that is also found right under "View"; it's "Show View Options" where you may need to check the box labeled "iCloud Download" from among the various "View Options".
    So now that all of your preferences are set, you can plainly see which songs that are in the Cloud (the ones with the Cloud icon right next to the song or right on the album).....or if there is no Cloud icon then it's already in your library or has been downloaded into your Library. To download a song or album just click on the Cloud icon & it begins to download into your library.
    So now you can choose which songs &/or albums you wish to download or re-download - depending how you wish to manage your iTunes library - which I won't go into here as there are so many options in addition to what we've gone over.
    I hope that I've been able to help as there are so many preferences & options, indeed.
    Enjoy

  • HT4890 how do i backup my photos to the cloud?

    I just want to back up my photos so that I can free up some memory on my phone.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can't back up photos with iCloud. Photo Stream is only for sync photos between all your devices, so you can't use it to store your photos

  • HT4847 My kids have downloaded tons of free games apps from iTunes.  I need to free some iCloud space without having to upgrade my account.  How do I delete those apps in the cloud?

    My kids have downloaded tons of free games apps from iTunes.  I need to free some iCloud space without having to upgrade my account.  How do I delete those apps in the cloud?

    Apps can't be deleted from iCloud as they only reside in the App store.  Also, the apps themselves aren't taking up space in your iCloud account.  They only thing in your iCloud account would be the app data that is backed up as part of their iCloud backup, but this generally doesn't use much space.  You can check how much is being used, and eliminate specific apps from being included in the backup, by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on their device, tapping the name of their device under Backups, then checking the apps listed under Backup Options (tap Show All Apps to see them all).  Turn an app to Off to exclude its app data from being backed up.

  • How can I delete an app from the cloud??

    how can I delete an app from the cloud, so nobody can download it again to my phone?? please I tried from the computer but it just hide the app from purchased, and still appears in the app store with the cloud on it

    At the present time, you can't hide or delete an app from your purchased list on your phone.  Prior to iOS 6 you could hide it; there has never been an option to delete it.

  • My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

    My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

    What you need to do is temporarily set up your new 4. Just long enough to update the operating system. Then you can erase all content and settings - which puts it back to its out of box state, then set it up again, this time restoring it from the backup of your two.
    So, using the same Apple ID on both - just to keep things easy - set up your 4. Just basically choose 'set up as new' to activate it, then immediately update the iOS to 7.1.2.
    then erase all content and settings, which puts it back to 'llike new'...but the operating system will not reset, it'll remain 7.1.2
    Then set it up again, this time choosing to 'restore from the backup' of your 2 and your 4 will be a near clone of your two.

  • HT4859 How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud?

    How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud? when I restored it, no camera roll pictures?

    Try restoring the backup again.  Sometimes it's successful the second time.  You could also try restoring an older backup.  iCloud will have your last 3 backups is you have sufficient storage space in your account.

  • How can I delete songs stored in the Cloud but without deleting them from my mac?

    How can I delete songs stored in the Cloud but without deleting them from my mac?

    You can do it, but you need another library signed in to iTunes match. That second library shouldn't have any local files stored.
    Delete the entry from that second library and it will ask you to confirm that you want to remove the file from the cloud. Confirm that you do.
    Now, as long as you don't delete the file from your main library it will have an iCloud status of "removed" and won't be in the cloud or try add it again.
    However, if you sign out of match on that computer and then sign in again it will then re-add it to the cloud, so this isn't a method to use if you tend to turn match on and off much.
    I have had the Beatles Mono albums in my main library, but not in the cloud, for a while now without any problems.

    Also if you want the archivelogs generated in the last 5 minutes, you should be using FROM TIME.
    If you want the archivelogs generated until 5minutes ago (and not the latest archivelogs), you should be using UNTIL TIME.
    Hemant K Chitale
    I've wondered about the utility of the FROM and UNTIL options for backup of archivelogs.  If one is going to back them up, why would one use an option that distinctly introduces the possibility of having gaps - un-backed-up archivelogs?  Why would one not simply back up all archives not previously backed up at least once?
    I'm sure you'll give me a valid response for a situation for which my imagination fails to see.
