If I back up to iCloud can I still back up to iTunes also?

iCloud looks interesting and I'll never lose my stuff like I would if my computer crashes but I still want to back up on iTunes and iCloud has only 5 gb of storage which I don't think is enough for and I'm not interested in buying more... Can I still back up on iTunes once I enable iCloud?

Yes, you could just switch the prefered storage option anytime. Just connect your iPhone to your computer and sync it with your computer.

  • I use FCP 7 Studio on an iMac with Snow Leopard.  If I upgrade to Lion so I can use iCloud, can I still use FCP 7?

    I use FCP 7 Studio on an iMac with Snow Leopard (10.6.8).  If I upgrade to Lion so I can use iCloud, can I still use FCP 7?

    Thanks X!  I use Office 2011 as this iMac is only a year old.  I don't have Rosetta (is it an add-on?) at least, I've never seen it... so... you're saying I could upgrade to Lion with no ill effect to my FCP7 Studio and all it's files and my saved projects?

  • I've migrated from MobileMe to iCloud - can I still access my iDisk on my Mac and how?

    I've just migrated from MobileMe to iCloud and have noticed that iDisk on my Mac has disappeared. Is there still a way for me to access my iDisk on my Mac? Can I still sync with it before MobileMe is canceled altogether (June 2012)?
    Thanks in advance!

    iDisk is not a feature of iCloud.
    However, just log back into MobileMe in the MobileMe system preferences pane and your iDisk will be accessible again.

  • When I change from MobileMe to iCloud can I still use my iPod Touch G2 for emails?

    Can I still sync everything as per normal? Is it just the new iCloud features that wont work?

    You can't use your iPod with any of iClouds features. You need iOS5 and the iDevice wont run that nor will you be able to move your MobileMe account to iCloud on iOS4.x.
    In order to keep your MM account working after next year you must purchase a new idevice or a Lion capable Mac. Alternate : a Vista/Win7 PC with Outlook will also work with iCloud.

  • HT4914 can I still have my entire itunes library on a device or do i have to download from the cloud

    Can I still have all my music on my ipod touch device or do I have to download from the cloud?
    Also if I can only have it on the cloud how do I get the music whe I don't have a wifi connection?

    What??  You asked how to get all your music on your phone at once rather than downloading it to your phone from iCloud.
    Go to your purchased list in iTunes and download all your music to your iTunes library, as explained in the linked article.  Then sync it all to your phone using iTunes you're done.  The music will be stored locally on your phone and you won't have to download it again in the future.

  • Can you still purchase videos with itunes 6??

    Like everyone else I downloaded itunes7, at first I got all error messages, and missing files. I spent 3 hrs. on the phone with Apple technicians and they had me download itunes7 and quicktime separately. Now I can at least open itunes, but that is about it. Itunes played audio but no video, but I went in and disabled the 3D from my video, now the videos play but are fuzzy and freeze. I have a 60GB ipod which I am afraid to sync with my computer. Does that mean if connect my ipod to my computer for synching, that will screw up my ipod?? I tried to uninstall itunes7 and its components and load the itunes cd that came with my ipod itunes 6.01 but it wouldn't work. In my itunes library it doesn't list videos anymore. Only TV shows, music and podcasts? Where did the video listing go? My 60GB ipod was recently purchased with an extended warranty, do you think if I return it and purchase a 80GB with the itunes cd and install that, it might work better? Can you still purchase videos if I manage to somehow get back itunes6?? The Apple technician said they would get back to me but of course they haven't. One last thing, I can finally connect to the itunes store but when I preview a video it freezes.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    While I haven't tried, I would image the answer is no.
    Usually when iPods are released with a new iTunes version, they aren't made to be/are made not to be compatible with previous iTunes versions.
    It may work, but I can't be sure either way (someone else may have tested this).
    In the past, even if iTunes updated the iPod, there tended to be problems syncing.

  • If I backup to icloud can I still manually backup too?

    say I just want icloud to backup sms, contacts, bookmarks.
    but my apps will probs go over the 5gb so I want to manually backup those?
    how does that work?

    your apps do not count against the 5GB. Neither does Photostream or your purchased books,music etc.
    What counts against the 5GB is the devices cameraroll , the OS backup  and the documents from icloud-enabled apps. For example I use 300MB out of the 5GB, and that's from a 8GB iPod with hundreds of pictures and 2GB worth of apps  on it.
    You can backup the iOS5 device to icloud and still make every now and then a backup to your local machine :
    Connect the iDevice to iTunes, locate the iDevice in iTunes' sidebar - now use the right mousebutton , click the Device's name and then pops up "back up". This creates a local backup, regardless if you have set all to backup to iCloud. This way you are double backed up .

  • HT5824 cannot find my iphone and never had it set up for icloud can i still acceess or find it some how

    Hi trying to trck my lost iphone 5 i have lost it but not set up for find iphone.s there anyway i can still track it

    Not without physically looking for it.  There is no way to track it without iCloud and Find My iPhone.  You could always try calling your number to see if someone answers.

  • Computer Crashed. Can I still get my old iTunes library back?

    Basically, my last laptop crashed and I had to buy a new one. I do not own an iPod or anything of that nature. I didn't back any of my music files up. Is there any way I can receive my old library?

    No backup?

  • If I upgrade to Lion and migrate MobileMe to iCloud, can I still sync my 2nd generation iPod Touch to my MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo) via USB cable?

    I am very reluctantly considering upgrading to Lion and going ahead and migrating MobileMe to iCloud before June 2012. If I upgrade and migrate, will I still be able to sync my 2nd generation iPod Touch via USB cable? Or will these changes force me to get a new iPod that can run iOS 5 because syncing will be nightmarish?

    Thanks for your reply. I would prefer to keep using this iPod for a while yet. Cheers!

  • My iPhone 4 stopped updating in the middle of the process and now I can't use my phone. Itunes also doesn't recognize it, but my computer does when it charges

    So I was talking to my friend on the phone and hooked it up to my computer to sync and the update thing appeared. I clicked on update and download the latest update for it and it was going smoothly. After the software/firmware (I can't remember which one) was extracted, my phone was backed up. Once the back-up was complete, iTunes said preparing update. That's when I got a message saying the update could not be performed or something (it sounded like the phone came unplugged or something). Now my phone is stuck on a screen with a usb connector with an arrow pointing to an iTunes logo.
    I've tried pressing the sleep/wake button, holding it, holding the home button, and holding both for a hard reset. Nothing has worked. I have an Apple Care policy, but I want to see if there's a way I can fix it so I don't have to go to an Apple store.
    I can't rememebr what OS I was running at the time, but I think the update was for 4.3.3 if that helps
    Thanks in advance for your help!

  • Can I still get my old itunes acount with out sycing to my computer

    HHow can I get my old iTunes music and account on my iPad. Because computer is down, and I can't syc my new iPad to it

    Restore them from a backup, or reload them from the original source; if that’s the iTunes Store, use these instructions to redownload them through the iCloud if doing so is free in your country.

  • HT5622 can you still share music on itunes with different apple id?  My daughters and I share the same itunes account but . . noticed this is not a good idea.  Both our contacts get merged.  sometimes my pictures end up on their phone!

    Is there a way to share the itunes music with different people in your household without having to share the phone contacts?  Do I need to have a different apple id?

    It's ok to share the same AppleID for iTunes.  Use Separate ID's for iCloud, iMessage, and Facetime.
