Photos taken with the phone are part of the backup. To get your photos back onto your new device, restore from that backup. But all other settings will be those from that point of time the backup has been made.

Iphone 6 backup to iCloud not working

Initially I had the issue where my phone was restoring from iCloud for 2 weeks and never finished. I was unable to do the upgrade to 8.1 because of this, so I canceled the restore and tried to do a backup to iCloud. I let it run (Estimating time remaining...) for a long time, like 30 minutes or something. Each time I tried this it would error off saying it couldn't finish the operation. One time it said it was going to take 2 days to complete the backup, but then it errors off as just mentioned. So I did a google search for "iPhone 6 backup to iCloud not working" and found a link to the forums for the incessant restore issue, it said to do a manual backup through iTunes, then immediately do a restore, then do the upgrade to 8.1.
However, I still have the issue of the backup taking forever.
Anyone encounter this issue and find a fix?
Many thanks.

I suggest you contact Apple Support.

Want to use new laptop for iPhone 5, but will iPhone 4 backup on old pc transfer ok?

I'm about to set up my new iPhone 5, but I want to set it up on a new pc, not the one I previously used for my iPhone 4. I've done a backup of my iPhone 4 with the old pc, but want to plug the new one into my new laptop. Will everything still transfer? Is there anything else I need to do/think about before registering it?

You can restore the iPhone from backup on the older computer, then transfer content to the new computer.
You can also just move the backup to the new computer and move the iTunes library to the new computer. Then you're new computer will have all the info that was on the older computer.

How can I recover photos from old iphone icloud backup to new one?

Hello, I had an iPhone 4 which I lost and inside there were some great photos that I want now to recover. In the meanwhile I bought an iPhone5S and I just realized that inside the iCloud backup menu is saying that there is a backup of 3GB of my old iPhone. How can I see if in that backup the photos are there? I have connected my iPhoto App to iCloud but it only finds photos from my new iPhone and not the old one...
Thanks for your time.

Hi, Tiago, maybe you can get help from data recovery software. Now things get easy now.
As far as I know, there are three ways to recover deleted contacts and photos from iPhone 5 with iPhone Data Recovery.
Way 1: Recover deleted photos from iPhone directly
Way 2: Using iTunes Backup to recover deleted photos
Way 3: Using iCloud Backup to recover deleted photos
You can refer the way 3 of how to recover deleted photos from iPhone to recover photos from old iPhone iCloud backup.
Good luck to you.

Itunes could not back up iphone because backup could not be saved on the PC

I am not able to backup my iphone. After the last step it always comes up with this message "itunes could not back up iphone because backup could not be saved on the computer" . I tried all solutions mentioned earlier like changing time zone, deleting previous backups & manually backing up, changing user admin, running itunes as an admin, etc .
I guess my problem lies in the Camera roll. I deleted all my pictures in it and I am left with 3 images. I guess they are corrupt as I am not able to delete them. When I try to delete them from iphone gallery, it crashes. When I try to delete it from external devices like when its connected to PC, same problem occurs, cant delete these 3 pictures. I guess they are corrupt.
Can you please let me know what to do.I dont know want to restore to factory settins

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

I have had my Iphone 5s for 2 months and all the fotos and data (fotos and data were not backed up) that I had were erased after I restored it with my old Iphone 4s backup, can I get my unsaved fotos and data back? and if I can, how?

If you never backed up your phone to iTunes and never backed it up to iCloud all of your content is gone forever.

HT204150 I dropped my iphone 4 in water and am using an older iPhone as backup. When I restored my contacts/calendar, etc. Only the calendar updated correctly. No notes transferred over and my contacts are from a year ago. How do I get my more recent c

I dropped my iPhone 4 in water and cannot get it to dry out enough to turn back on. I may have fried the battery. I am using an old iPhone 3 temporarily but cannot get all of my current info to sync. My calendar is up to date but none of my notes have transferred over and the contact list is from when I originally used the iPhone 3 last year. How do I get my iPhone 4 info synced onto the iPhone 3?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't restore an iPhone 3G from an iPhone 4 backup. Until you get a replacement you can access your iCloud data at iCloud.com on a computer.

HT1495 how to restore iphon-without backup, after it synchronization from ipod

how to restore iphon-without backup, after it synchronization from ipod

Thanks Eric,
After inserting the original DVD I installed OSX and after reboot I had a working computer.
There was no opportunity to restore the TM backup. however when I rebooted from the
DVD again I saw that possibility from a menu of the install utility.
I ran through the restore over night (8 hours) and when I woke up, I had my computer back!
Thanks for helping me out.
Cheers, Rob

Where does iPhone store backups in Mac and Windows?

Sorry I could not find the answer elsewhere.
Where does iPhone store backups on Windows and Mac?
Can the location be changed?
Thanks!

Mac:
Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
(Note you may need to turn on show hidden files and folders to see it on Windows)
As far as I know, you can't change it.
Good Luck!

How to restore a used iphone with another iphone's backup?

Hi,
My husband broke his iphone so I made him a deal: I get to buy the new 3G S, and he can have my 3G. Here's my problem. I restored my brand-new 3G S from my 3G's backup when I came home from purchasing it and all is great there. Now I'm trying to restore my old 3G with a backup of mu husband's iPhone. I switched the SIMs and so his number now works on my old 3G, but it still has all of my contacts and everything. When I hook it up into iTunes I don't see an option to restore that phone with a different backup, because of course it recognizes that phone and has backups from it already. In iTunes, I have to date backed up my husband's old (broken)original iPhone, my old 3G and my new 3G S. Want to restore the 3G with original iPhone's backup.
Thanks for help! Will mark solved/helpful.

I did this (but the other way round - she gets the old one and I get the new one - Bwahahahahaha!!!!)
Anyway (sorry about that - it's the heat), I did the restore on her 'new' phone, and iTunes asked at some point whether I wanted to restore as <whatever we called her phone originally> or as a new iPhone.
I chose 'new iPhone' and resynced everything from iTunes, but you could choose 'husband's phone' and restore from an existing backup.

I think, according to this thread, you're between a rock and a hard place- you won't be able to access your backups. See this thread:

Restoring iphone from backup estimating time remaining stuck

I have been updating my boyfriend's iphone. It has not been updated for a while. I backed up everything on itunes. I then went to restore (the first time) and within 10-15 minutes it said there was 1 hour left, 2 hour left, 3 hours left. I did something else for about 20/30 minutes, came back to my computer and it was asleep and everything had ended. It did not finish.
I have now tried to restore a couple times and cannot get past the estimated time remaining..... What do I do? It's been "estimating time" for about a half hour.
Please help. Beyond frustrated.

Just got an Iphone 5, trying to restore it from my Iphone 4 backup. I just shows estimating time remaining for the past hour and a half. Might just leave it up and hopefully something will happen.
