If I delete my Iphone from the Icloud back up will it remove the items saved from that device?

I had to purchase a new Iphone today because it would no longer turn on. I had Icloud set up for that device. When I got my new phone I put in my exsisting apple ID and it is showing my other device. Since it has both phones listed, am I able to delete the old phone, or will that take whatever is saved from that device off of my Icloud account?

Welcome to the Apple Community Erica.
Just do another back up.

Can anyone tell me how to scan documents to the icloud, so they will be on the ipad. My husband is planning on using the ipad for work.

Can anyone tell me how to scan documents to the icloud, so they will be on the ipad? My husband is planning on using his ipad for business. I haven't been able to even find anywhere that I could read about scanning documents.

If you scanned the documents - what format did you save them in - pdf? If so, Pages will not open pdf files. you can save a file and export it as a pdf from Pages - but not the other way around.
If you need simply view the documents - you can send them to the iPad via email or DropBox and them open and save them in iBooks. or Adobe Reader. both apps are free. Adobe Reader can use file sharing in iTunes to transfer the files.
If you need to annotate the files - you will need an app like Goodreader - which can use file sharing from iTunes in order to transfer the files as well. GoodReader may work with iCloud now, but you will have to check that out in the App Store.
You can read this to see how to use file sharing. It really is pretty easy to use. You do need to do this with your computer.

I accidentally got a virus on my iPhone and it may have gotten into the iCloud storage, how do I remove the virus OR how do I restore from a back-up that occurred before the virus infected the system?

When I was browsing on Safari on my iPhone, I accidentally got an advertisement where you could not close it out unless you clicked on its pop-up screen. So I clicked yes (Looking back, I should've turned off my iPhone then immediately closed out the ad before it could load), then I closed out immediately. But then things went haywire as the Siri automatically went off without me pressing for it, then the music on the iPod part of my iPhone played randomly and got crazy. So I tried resetting the entire settings and restored at a previous point, but I want to be 100% sure the virus is completely gone. I fear it may have infected the iCloud storage and if I cannot completely wipe out the virus without removing any data that was stored prior to the incident, I want to be able to know how to restore from an older session before the incident happened.
Can you please help me?

If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

I download songs from itunes and the I accidently pressed the icloud back up button and now the songs I bought won't work. How do I fix this?

Did you go to Settings>iCloud>Storage and Backup and then tap the Backup Button?
What is the status of the songs on the iPod? Is there an icon by them? Are the grayed out?

HT4847 I'm trying to delete (my stolen) iPhone 4s from my iCloud back up listing. But when i try although both the stolen and my new phone are listed if i try to delete the old one it comes up with a message 'cannot delete backup at this time'

When i try to delete my stolen 4s from the icloud back u list i get a message saying 'ths cannot be deleted at this time' . This is taking up 2.2gb of space. How can i delete the device? I have unregistered the device and sent a remote wipe message to the phone.

I did get rid of a few after I set the iphone to not show music which was in the cloud but I still have 2 albums that won't go away. Any more suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

I have switched my iphone to airplane mode so it is not connected to the internet and so icloud can not wipe it at the moment.
thanks roy

There's a menu choice (I think under "Files") that lets you sync purchased items on a device back to itunes. Look for that.
iCloud does not store music. If you want to do that you'd have to subscribe to itunes Match, but to get music to the match servers, you need the music in the itunes library on your computer.

How do I remove an iPhone from my icloud if I no longer have the device? Find my phone was disabled before I returned it.

How do i download my pictures from the icloud back to my phone?

So i deleted all my pictures off my phone. But i have the icloud backing them up. How do i download them back to my phone from the cloud?

You can also use iCloud Control Panel to copy them to your computer.
You should regularly sync your photos to yoru computer and delete them form the Camera Roll.
You can sync the photos you want back to the iPhone using iTunes.
and not leave them in yoru Camera Roll.

ICloud on my phone, and I want to delete his iCloud account, without losing all my data, including, my apps, contacts, calendar events, music. If I delete his account, will I still have everything saved from before?

My nephew set up his own iCloud account on my phone, and I want to delete his iCloud account, without losing all my data, including, my apps, contacts, calendar events, music. If I delete his account, will I still have everything saved from before deleting his account?? I don't want to lose a single thing...I'm afraid to delete his iCloud account, and risk losing EVERYTHING I have on my phone. Is there another way to save everything without the risk of losing everything from deleting his iCloud account?

Deleting the iCloud account from your phone only deletes the account and any data you are syncing with the account (that is, any data that is set to On in Settings>iCloud). However, when you delete the account you are prompted about what to do with the iCloud data. If you want to keep it on your phone, be sure to choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted. Also, be sure to save any photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else before deleting the account. To do this, open the photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
Deleting the account will not touch any other data on your phone (music, apps, etc.).

My iPhone 4s iOS 7.0.4 will not update music or apps from iTunes 11.1.3. this was true of my pc and the new MacPro.

My iphone 4s ios 7/0/4 will not update music or apps from itunes 11.1.3. this was true with my pc since ios 7.0.3 even with update 7.0.4 and now continues with my new MacPro also runing itunes 11.1.3. as most state in previous threads, syncs all non itunes related data with no issue and appears to work correctly on itunes data but then hangs on the last step of updating until it times out. i have tried marking specific music to transfer, setting up new playlist, deleting some old playlist on phone but stopped short of restoring my phone back to new due to the amount of non itunes data that i will lose. The itunes setup on the macpro was completely with the download of all music from a previous external backup and the creation of new playlist - on the first sync with existing phone it did ask to overwrite all phone itunes data with macpro itunes data which i did accept - no different result - no changes on phone.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

HT201077 I am a new iphone 5 user and set it up to use icloud to store pictures, etc. I set up my home computer afterwards, but only some pictures are on the icloud. How do I view the rest of my pictures on my home computer? Where are they stored?

Only some of my pictures are on iCloud that are currently stored on my phone. Where are the others? Why aren't all the pictures from my iPhone showing in the iCloud? I can't find the pictures I saved from my ipodtouch, either....
