Icloud is not backing up daily automatically on my phone or ipad I have to select back up now each day manually why is it not doing when locked on wifi

Make sure your devices are also connected to external power or the wifi will disconnect after a few seconds. If they are and they still won't back up, it may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail. To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup. Then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

HT1420 iTunes Match will not show on phone or ipad I have switched on iTunes Match on both units. PC is saying albums are in the cloud ?

iTunes Match will not show on phone or ipad I have switched on iTunes Match on , On both units. PC is saying albums are in the cloud ?

Hey there Dollyonline,
Thank you for asking your question! It sounds like iTunes Match playlists are not syncing correctly to your iPad, even though you have already toggled iTunes Match off then on again. I would next turn iTunes Match back off, then close all the apps on the iPad:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone then try turning on iTunes Match again to test the issue:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

HT4859 I have iCloud for my iPhone, my daughters iphone and 2 of my ipads and have purchased the max amount of storage I can but still get a message saying i don't have enough space to store anymore. Do I need to put each device on their own account?

And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.

My MacBook Pro recognizes which of my three printers is plugged in (USB), but can it automatically use that printer or do I have to select that printer from the list each time I switch between printers?

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Why IPhone is getting hot when downloading via wifi and how to turn off itunes 11.1 launch automatically when plugged in Iphone to the PC

Why IPhone is getting hot when downloading via wifi and how to turn off itunes 11.1 launch automatically when plugged in Iphone to the PC

My brother with the iPhone 4 suffers from that too.
My iphone 5 doesnt however.
But to Stop Launch when your apple device is connected, 1. connect your iPhoneto your computer, 2.Go to the Summary Page, 3. uncheck the box "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" and then your good for that device.

I can't erase all data and content from my iPhone 4s. It says iCloud account not verified, when it only asks for my Apple ID to erase all data and content.

It's really been puzzling me, I've never logged in the Apple site on a laptop before - I have been getting the same message 'Unable to verify iCloud account' every time I try and erase all data and content from my iPhone 4s. When I go to iCloud on my laptop and sign in using my Apple ID it signs me in. These are the same log in details I am prompted for when trying to erase all data/content from the phone. If anybody could point me in the direction that would be really appreciated. Thanks

Hi.
Yes, I recently changed my Apple ID password - around 2 weeks ago when I bought the phone.
Does anyone know if you need to do the IOS update to be able to restore all data and content? I have not installed the new update on either of my iPhone 4S's yet.
The phone I am trying to reset was sold to me by a friend and when it was it had already been reset and it was on the language selection screen.

Why does my icloud email not change when i update my appleID? and how can I change it??..so frustrating

I updated my email because I changed my name, and now i cant sign into icloud and it still wants the password for my old email. any ideas?

Also, it's important to follow the steps in Change your Apple ID when changing your ID. You're supposed to sign out of all of your accounts then change the name of the Apple ID then sign in using the email address. Because find my iPhone is a thief's worst nightmare the password will only be accepted for iCloud if the account is still called that current name. So if you changed the name of the account without changing the Apple iD you'll need to change the name back (on Appleid.apple.com) then sign out in Settings>iCloud, then change the name back using the desired email (on applied.apple.com) then sign in using the preferred email in Settings>iCloud.
Cheers

HT4993 ok so I click on...settings, icloud, storage&backup, back up now... IT WONT BACK ANYTHING UP!!! HELP???

After I click on...settings...icloud..storage and back-up..back-up now.. IT WONT BACK UP ANYTHING... aM i DOING SOMETHING WRONG?

How do you know it isn't backing up?
Do you get a message?
Does it give the last date of back up under the Backup Now button?
Have you tried resetting?
Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)

Yosemite 10.10.1 - DNS cache does not clear when switching between WiFi networks

Before updating to Yosemite, DNS caches would clear when switching between WiFi networks, as they should.
For Example, when using an Exchange server, your server name might be something like mail.company.com. Outside of the corporate LAN the IP would resolve to the outside (WAN) address. When you move the laptop inside the corporate LAN, it should clear the cache so mail.company.com resolves to the internal (LAN) address. This is just one example of a dumb DNS transition not taking place switching from outside to inside (and vice versa).
Instead, OS X is holding onto the outside DNS record even when moving to the Corporate LAN. The only way to fix is to run the DNS cache command (which is MUCH more convoluted in Yosemite now), or more easily, to quickly turn off then turn on WiFi.
This is an irritation as I have to perform this action every morning, and every time I come back to my desk from offsite.

Well, clearing the caches is as simple as this, no?
Clear MDNS Cache
sudo discoveryutil mdnsflushcache
Clear UDNS Cache
sudo discoveryutil udnsflushcaches
One other thing: Have you tried 10.10.2? There are many many fixes in 10.10.2 over 10.10.1.

My iPad does not ring when locked. How can I take off the tick in the silence do not disturb

In the do not disturb box is a tick for silence when iPad is locked. Therefore I do not know when I am being called as there is no ringing sound. Can anyone help please.

If you change Settings > Do Not Disturb > Allow Calls From (e.g. to allow from 'Everyone') then it should still ring if the iPad is locked.
For the 'Only While iPad is locked' and 'Always' options on that screen, one of those two has to be ticked.

If you have doubts about your mailstore's integrity, making a backup of it is a wise precaution. You can do this by copying your profile.

If the folder or message content goes awry, rebuilding the index is often productive. Select the affected folder, right-click, select '''Properties '''then '''Repair Folder'''.

MMS not working when connected to wifi

My problem is similar to this recent post about the S5:
MMS Problems with Samsung S5
It started this morning (Wednesday, 6/11/14). I have sent and received MMS messages seamlessly until about 8:00 this morning. Now, if I am connected to a wifi network, but do also have data enabled, I cannot send or receive MMS messages. When sending, it just hangs and doesn't send until I disable wifi. When receiving, I get a message wanting me to click "download", but when I do, nothing happens. Turning off wifi makes both messages go through immediately.
I understand that MMS messages do not go through wifi, but, as I said, until this morning they could go over the data network as needed even when I was connected to a wifi network. The change was sudden, and I'm not aware of anything that changed with my wifi connection or my phone, though my apps do typically auto-update, and I don't know which, if any, may have auto-updated this morning.

Sorry to hear about any trouble with your picture messages! Let's get everything back up and running for you. Is mobile data still turned on when you're connected to WiFi? If so, can you try using the Google Hangouts application for your messaging instead? I'd like to test if this will allow you to receive picture messages even when on WiFi. Keep us posted!
