IPad stolen. Can I see what app data was backed up in iCloud?

Hello,
My ipad was stolen.
How can I see what app data was backed up on icloud?
Thank you

Unfortuantely, you can see what's in a backup without restoring it to your device.  You also can't selectively restore just certain apps.  Also, your apps aren't really stored in your backup, only your app data is.  When you restore the backup, the app data is restored, then the apps are redownloaded from the App store, along with your other purchased media, assuming they are still available.
What you could do is back up your iPad to your computer (connect it to your computer, open iTunes, then go to File>Devices>Back Up and File>Devices>Transfer Purchases), then erase it (Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings), restore the old backup (go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup).  Then you could either live with the restored backup and all it contains, or erase it again and restore the iTunes backup you made earlier (connect it, open iTunes, go to File>Devices>Restore from Backup).

  • HOW DO I SEE THE LAST DATE I BACKED UP ON ICLOUD

  • How can I see what apps I've purchased on iPhone

    I tried to buy an app on my iPhone. It says I am accessing the App Store on a "new device." This phone is pretty old (iphone 4) and I've downloaded tons of apps on it so this is making me a little nervous.  But maybe I've never paid for any apps on my iPhone--I can't remember for sure, but I thought I had.  If I haven't paid for any apps before, would this make it show up as a "new device" in the app store?
    Is there someplace I can go to see the history of what apps I've paid for in the iPhone App Store?  (I tried going to my Mac Apps account, but it only lists apps I've purchased for my laptop.)
    The reason I'm being so cautious is that at one point I accidentally created a second Apple ID and it was complicated getting that sorted out. I don't want to go through that again.  So when I'm prompted to do things that don't seem logical, I'm very hesitant to go along with it.  Thanks for any help.

    It should be OK to do that, but I'm puzzled as to why it is asking you to. You haven't erased it, or changed computers?
    Try this: On the phone, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores. Is the Apple ID the same as the one you viewed on your computer?

  • How can I see what apps are running on a non-startup disk

    I recently changed over to a larger drive from my older startup drive. I want to erase that original drive and clean it up. When I go to Disk Utility and erase it says "erase failed, could not unmount disk". I try to eject it and it says "HD is in use".
    I figure I just need to see what's running on that drive and stop it somehow, or if there is another workaround?

    If you're willing to use a command in Terminal, try this, where "old_disk" is the name of the old disk. (If the name of the old disk contains any spaces, prefix each space with a back-slash.) It will show you each file on the old disk that's open.
    sudo lsof | grep /Volumes/old_disk
    Spaces doubled for readability. The character just before "sof" is a lower-case letter "L". You'll be prompted for your administrative account's password.

  • My phone has blue screen od death due to ios7 malfunction there for in usable how can i see if my contacts are backed up to icloud. it will not let me log on

    i have the blue scrren of death on my iphone 4s due to  the ios7 software malfunction which i am not happpy about. my icloud will not let me log into it which s making e frustrated. i am reciving a new phone but i am worried about losing my contacts how can i see if i can retrevive them once i get a new apple devce please someone help me.

    Go to icloud.com from your computer and sign into your account.  Any iCloud data you see there will sync to your new phone when you sign into your account.
    Also, if you have a recent backup of your phone, restore that backup to your new phone when you get it to transfer your data, settings, apps and other purchased media.  More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

  • How do I know app data is backed up on iCloud?

    So I have my iPad (1st Generation) synced to an old computer that I don't use anymore, and would love to restore it so i can sync it to my new computer.  The problem I have is losing all of the app data, in particular many games.  It's running iOS 5.0.1 so it has iCloud on it, and when I pull up the 'Manage Storage' under ' Storage & Backup' in the 'iCloud' setting on iPad, it shows there was a backup of the iPad (including the apps) as well as a separate category of "Documents & Data" where it only lists "Infinity Blade 2 Save Files".
    So does this mean the only app data that is backed up is for Infinity Blade 2?  Whereas the apps listed under "Backups" is just the physical app itself without data?  Or do most apps just disguise it with the general backup rather than differentiating it like Infinity Blade 2 does?
    I'd hate to lose progress in the other games like Temple Run, Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, Fruit Ninja, etc. hahaha
    Thanks for the help!

    Can anyone help me??

  • How can I see what apps automatically downloaded to the other iphone?

    Hello,
    I have two iphones associated with my apple ID.  One for me and one for my son.  He is with his mother half the time so to be physically next to the phone is not possible at the moment.
    I noticed on my phone that I got two apps that he downloaded.  However, I downloaded an app that I don't think he should have.  I saw in my Settings > itunes & App Stores that Automatic Downloads for Music and Apps were both set to ON.  I don't use the iCloud.  Is there a chance that my son has this app on his iphone now?
    If this matters - I am on iOS 6.0.2, iphone 5 - he is on iOS 5.1.1, iphone 4s
    Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for the reply KiltedTIm.
    Is there a way to view what was automatically downloaded on his device?
    Is there an easy way to convert the items that were downloaded to his own ID when he gets one?  If not, can he still use the apps that were downloaded using my Apple ID?
    Thanks so much!

  • How can I see what apps are running on my iphone 5?

    Is there an app that will show me the apps running and also allow me to close apps that don't need to be running?

    Double tap the Home button, this brings up the Multi-Tasking bar. Any app running in the backgroud will be listed. Tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle. Tap the red minus sign to remove the app from the Multi-Tasking bar.
    Note: very few apps are actually running in the background...they must be designed to do so. Almost all apps listed will not be running, but rather in their last used state.

  • How can I see what Time Machine is backing up?

    Time Machine is taking 4-hours to do each backup.
    Time Machine use to back up every hour, but because it seems to be such a resource hog that I installed Time Machine Editor and have the backup take place once a day at 3 am. It is now 5:49 am and Time Machine is still backing up, and my machine is rendered almost unusable, because Time Machine is running and slowing the machine down.
    The only files that I can think of that could be causing this lengthy time for Time Machine to run are three virtual machines (that are in the exclude list).
    For the exclude list I used to have the name of the folder, where they reside. Figuring that having a folder name might be a problem, I added the files individually. Checking on the backups, these virtual machines are NOT on the backup, so I doubt that these are causing the lengthy backups.
    I believe the solution to this to find someway to be able to see which files are being processed by Time Machine (in real-time).
    Where do I go with this? How can I find out why Time Machine is taking so long to do backups?

    You might want to give TimeTracker a look to see exactly which files are being backed on each pass.
    Allow some time (maybe 5-10 minutes or longer) for the program to fully load. The Finder like interface will allow you to drill down into each backup.

  • I have a new iphone how can I see what is on iCloud from my old iphone?

    I have new iphone and ipad.  How can I see what is on my old iphone on iCloud so I can delete some space???

    If you mean you want to see what is stored in the iCloud backup of your old phone, you can't.  You can only see data in a backup by restoring it to your device.
    If you mean you want to see the data you old phone was syncing with icloud, either go to icloud.com from your computer or sign into the account on your new phone in Settings>iCloud and turn on the data you want to see.  It will then download to your phone.

  • Check what master data was carried with last load

    Hello all,
    I have an issue. I'm looking for a solution, so maybe you can help me :).
    I have the InfoObject A linked to InfoObject B , through a transformation.
    I also have a DTP.
    Running the DTP , I load master data from A to B.
    A and B already contained data, before my load.
    How can I check what master data was carried with my last load?
    (I don't have the chance to check by request, as if in the case of a cube , for example)
    Thank you.

    I agree like cube we cannot see the request wise data wise data .
    The alternate to this is you are updating the data through the DTP correct .
    Goto DTP maintenanve screen and click on the PSA and check the date wise data in that .
    I hope you must be awared of  which date data you need to see . So you can check from the DTP PSA screen .
    Assign marks is the best way to appreciate help

  • HT4910 I have a simple question or 2. 1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how do I edit the data if I do not want it on icloud. 2) I have an app that I would like to update data - it doesn't appear to be doing that, how can I fix that? It is the mob

    1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how would I edit the data that is on it?
    2) I am having problems with an app syncing data with pc - how can I fix that? It is mobile noter.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
    For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.
