IF I DELETE MY LAST ICLOUD BACKUP, WILL I LOSE MY INFORMATION ON MY PHONE

I just bought the iPhone 5 and restored an iCloud backup onto it from my old phone. I am trying to backup my iPhone 5 now but it is saying that I do not have enough room. If I delete the iPhone 4 backup, will I lose everything that I backed up onto the 5?

IF you delete your backup then yes it will delete all the data.
you can create a new one with the current data on your phone.

If I delete my iCloud backup will it wipe all the content from my phone?

If I want to delete my iCloud back up to clear the iCloud memory, will it delete the content on my phone? I want to delete it then back it up again hoping I'll have more iCloud space available afterwards but I don't want to lose everything!
Thanks

Delete iCloud backup will not erase data in iPhone. After deletion be sure that you have all your space available before make a new backup.

It will only delete the backup from iCloud. It won't delete anything from your phone.

you will want to go to settings>general>reset>erase all content and settings. this will take you to setup assistant again to choose icloud backup.
*MAKE SURE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A BACKUP
*MAKE SURE YOU CAN CONNECT TO WIFI
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After you do the steps Janessa provided you, when the setup screen comes up after you restore the device, you will have to choose "Restore this Device from iCloud", and that will allow you to get all the information you have backed up on iCloud, and like Janessa said make 100% sure you 1, have a backup in iCloud, and 2, The backup in iCloud is somewhat up to date

HT1766 I usually have iCloud backup but I got a notification that my phone has not backed up for the last two weeks, and It wont let me do it manually. Why did it all of a sudden stop backing up?

I usually have iCloud backup but I got a notification that my phone has not backed up for the last two weeks, and It wont let me do it manually.There is also still enough storage space. Why did it all of a sudden stop backing up?

The HT1766 article you attached lists the prerequisites for an iCloud backup:
iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your device using iOS 5 or later. After you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in Settings > iCloud > Backup & Storage, it will run on a daily basis as long as your device is:
Connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi
Connected to a power source
Screen locked
You can also back up manually whenever your device is connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi by choosing Back Up Now from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.

Cannot delete old iPad iCloud backup "because it is in use"

I previously owned an iPad 3 which I sold a few weeks ago. After buying an iPad Air, I restored it from the iPad 3 backup in iTunes, and now I want to delete the iCloud backup of the old iPad 3. However, when trying to delete the iCloud backup I get the popup:
"This backup cannot be deleted because it is in use."
I've tried to delete the iPad 3 iCloud backup both from my iPad Air and on my iPhone 5 devices, but the same popup appear. Worth mention is that after buying the iPad Air, I first tried to set it up from the iPad 3 iCloud backup, but all items wasn't fully restored, so decided to restore the new iPad Air from the iPad 3 backup in iTunes.
Is the anyone who has experience the issue of not being able to delete an old iCloud backup? How can I try to solve it? I've tried to restart my devices and I've also deleted both my iPhone 5 iCloud backup and my new iPad Air backup, but it's still not possible to delete the old iPad 3 backup.

Hi, I'm having the same issue. I found this in the Apple Support page
You'll be notified if a backup is in use.
If you try to delete a backup but get an alert that the backup is in use, wait 48 hours before trying again. A backup is considered in use if it was recently created by another iOS device or is being restored by another iOS device. If you can't delete the backup after 48 hours, contact Apple Support.
Find the full article here: iCloud: Deleting an iCloud backup
Hope this helps.

My daughter accidentally restored her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. Her photos were all on camera roll so I believe should have been backed up, but none of them have been restored. Why?

My daughter accidentally reset her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. All her photos were on camera roll so I believe they should have automatically been backed up, but none have been restored. Why?

When she plugged in the ipod last night it backed up again so that now shows as the latest backup. No previous backups are listed so I do not seem to have the option to rerun the old one. She had many pictures on the camera roll taken from well before July. I can only presume that the backup in July must have been incomplete - but then I didn't think it was supposed to list as an option to restore from. Luckily many of the photos had been backed up on the pc but I am very frustrated as to why the icloud backup didn't protect them. Thank you for your advice though, I appreciate it.

How do i download my last iCloud backup to my new phone?

How do I get my last iCloud backup downloaded on my new iPhone6?

You can only get the the iCloud files if you are on an iPhone and are restoring from a backup.
Have you set up your phone already?

I can't find my last icloud backup

I've changed my iphone 4 with a new one, always 4, but now I can't find the last Icloud backup that i did few hours ago..
What can i do?

If your replacement phone has already been updated to the latest iOS (6.1.3), you should be able to access any available iCloud backup. Try going to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Data, go through the setup screens on your phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup, then sign into the iCloud account your backed up your old phone to. See if the backup you're looking for is listed. If it isn't, it must not be in your iCloud account.
If you still have the old phone, you can back it up to iTunes instead and restore to that backup.

Last iCloud backup info when phone not available

My wife's iPhone 5 has smashed screen. Need to know when last iCloud backup was. How can I do this without being able to look on the actual phone.
Also can anyone confirm that the entire camera roll would have been backed up?

iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
The day before.
If the phone still works you can do a manual backup to iTunes on your computer and not have to rely on the phone display.

HT4859 I have an iPhone 5 and have just set up the iCloud for it. I also have an iPad with different content and I also want to connect it to iCloud. Will I lose everything that's on my iPad or iPhone or do they sync together without losing anything?

The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

Question:
I don't want to automatically download apps/music. Can I get rid of Iclouds, or will I lose everything? I don't understand...

I don't want to automatically download apps/music.
Just turn those options off, then.
