IPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.4) back up issue

This started of late; every time I try to back up I get the message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone "... iPhone" because the iPhone disconnected" while it's still connected via Lightning. It goes through suncing just fine, but does not back up.
Your input is appreciated!
Thanks.

I would say that the servers are busy, overloaded and it is effecting your information. This can happen time to time, especially with such a popular network. I really don't think it's an iPhone issue, I think it's something going on with Twitter, definitely since you also tried from Safari and it didn't work from there. Good luck!

ICal Events on iPhone 4S IOS 5 and Lion with iCloud issue.

Last week I tried to create an event on the 4th of May just to remind me of a past particular special event in my life. I created it in Lion on my iMac and after a couple of seconds it vanished. I then tried creating it on my iPhone 4S IOS 5 and the same happened.
Then I tried switching Calendars off in my iCloud settings and did the whole thing once again. By doing so events remained for ever on the device even after I switched back on the Calendars in my iCloud and merged all the events that were on the computer and device.
Still, when I go back and search for the event to see if it's still there and edit it, it once again vanishes.

Does anyone know how to resolve my question (first paragraph in original posting) regarding uneditable calendar items on iPhone (with regards to syncing through iCloud)? Thanks.

Iphone 4 IOS 5 restore from back up is taking long time

Hello,
it's my first time on the forum.I'm quite new in the apple world.
Yesterday I upgraded my Iphone4 to IOS 5.
The device asked me to plug it to the PC for the restore from my backup and here come problems.The restore started and after few second stoped at 80%,
now it's still working (15 hours). Is it normal?I just had 2 GB of Data.It seems a long time.
Do you think it will finish?
I think I noticed is that the pup up that shows the system is working is a Vista pup up and not a itunes pop up.
Please help

IPhone 4 iOS 7.0.4 back to iOS 6.1.3

Reputable company Apple, I very long time used your products. In due time I downloaded updatings for phone and all other gadgets. But after the iOS 7 installation on iPhone 4 to use phone it became simply intolerable! Phone began to work disgustingly. It delivers a maximum of inconveniences. Phone was bought because of the speed of work, now it isn't present. Lack of return on the previous insertion it is impossible! What to do? To throw out? Whether there is an opportunity to make kickback on iOS 6.1.3? I apologize for my English.

Downgrading is not possible. If you would like help from your fellow users in solving the performance problems with iOS 7, I'd suggest that you post in the iPhone forum. You may wish to post in your native language.

If you have already updated your phone to the latest version of iOS, there is no way to go back to an older version.

IOS 5 ipad not backing up to icloud

I have given a friend a number of my older Apple devices that he likes to use with older IOS. Before the start of October, all of his devices were backing up to icloud with no problem. Suddenly, the 3 devices(iphone, ipad 1, and ipad 2) stopped backing up to icloud, but his iphone with IOS 6 is still backing up to icloud. I doubt there are many people out there still using IOS 5, but has anyone else experienced this problem? My feeling is that Apple is not supporting icloud backup for IOS 5 devices due to the fact his IOS 6 phone is working fine.
We have tried a number of fixes. We have removed the icloud account from his phone, tried using another icloud account, etc. We have deleted the backup of the ipad 1. Nothing has worked. The same error appear about 30 seconds after attempting an icloud backup. It says something to the effect of "an error has occurred. The icloud backup did not complete."
We don't want to erase one of the devices and go back to factory settings. My friend likes using IOS 5 and does not want to update the phones. Any ideas/solutions? Thanks in advance for the help.

You can try this:
Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (they will still be in iCloud).
Download the app My Contacts Backup. Use this to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts/groups) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself. Confirm that you have received the email.
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap each of your accounts (Google, exchange, etc.) and turn off contacts syncing with these other accounts.
Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the other groups back to your device and to iCloud.
(I'm not sure if this works with Facebook contacts or not.)

IPhone 6/iOS 8 email issues with wifi connection

Hi
I have just upgraded from an iPhone 4 (iOS 7) to an iPhone 6 (iOS 8) and am having an issue with my pop email account. I used my iPhone 4 backup to set up new iPhone, so all the settings were as they were in my old phone. I have two email accounts, one is an IMAP account and the other is a POP account (which is my main email), I have no problems connecting to the server and downloading emails when connected via 4G (its super fast), but when I am connected via wifi, the POP account takes ages to connect to the server and check for emails (stuck on checking for email). I can speed up the process by closing mail app completely and reopening, then it checks and downloads really quickly (IMAP account has no problems), but this is frankly a pain.
I have spent ages on the phone with Apple support, who have got me to delete my POP email account twice, reset network settings, reset the phone using on/off button and home button, all to no avail. They are intent on telling me it's my email service providers fault, but as I pointed out there is no issue on 4G and my old iPhone (using iOS 7) on wifi has no issues, so can't be email provider. I have also tried using Apple's wifi in store to rule out router issue and the problem happened there too.
Have now run out of suggestions and options. I'm not sure if it's the phone itself, either a hardware or software issue (Apple support think not). Someone told me that it could be the wifi on my phone blocking the connection to the server. I have an appointment booked at the genius brand they have suggested wiping the phone and setting up as a new phone to see if the problem occurs, but this seems a bit drastic and I would lose all messages etc. Any help would be appreciated.

I have solved the issue! I tried my pop account on other devices with iOS 8 and the same thing happened, so I deduced that the issue is a glitch in iOS 8 with wifi and pop accounts. I managed to get hold of the IMAP settings for my email provider and all seems to be well. Happy days!

If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

IPhone 3GS (iOS 5) will not sync, stuck on *backing up* in iTunes 10.6.3.25

I recently updated iTunes to the latest update for Windows, since then, whenever I connect my phone and try to sync it just gets stuck in *backing up* for ages.. if I leave it it will be in backing up for hours. I cannot sync my phone or add any content now. I've been told to try and click the *X* in the progress window at the top of iTunes - but doing this does nothing but freeze iTunes for a few minutes - then it continues to *back up*... frustrating. Can anyone help?
Ta very much,

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if the problem has been resolved.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Hi deamayfield,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

Can somebody help me install IOS 6.1.3 back to my iPhone 4. IOS 7 or 7.0.4 is not smooth enough as perfect as IOS 6.1.3. I am stuck with this OS, every app gives a break for 4-5 seconds to open up. And playing games in this OS using iPhone 4 is really crazy. Very much disappointed that I am not able to use IOS 7 and cant go back to what I need.

HT4314 iPhone 5c iOS 8.0.2 Game Center randomly logged me out and asked for a nickname as if I did not have an account. How do I get my account back?

I updated my iPhone to iOS 8 then added the 8.0.2 update early last week. On 10/3/14, I used an app that saves through Game Center with no problems (and had not been logged out of Game Center at any time since the update), then a few hours later when I tried to go back in, Game Center popped up and asked for my password. I put in my password, then Game Center prompted me for a nickname. When I entered my nickname, it told me it was associated with another account. I only have one Apple ID and the account the nickname is associated with is my own. After going out and back in and restarting the phone, I finally entered a new nickname thinking maybe it was being required as part of the update but then it cleared all of my Game Center information. Is there a way I can get back to my original nickname and Game Center progress? Thank you in advance for your help as I am not very tech savvy.

Even easier than what I wrote originally. Just do a RESET ALL SETTINGS . I was originally only trying the "reset network settings" but didn't try reset ALL settings. This has helped 5 of my friends regain their Bluetooth connectivity with a variety of autos. But remember two things: 1) back up data on your phone before trying this and 2) don't forget to delete the bluetooth original pairing from your car.

I have updated my 4s iphone to ios 6.1.3 and have trouble connecting it to wi fi . i tried to back up it on itunes and then restore it but now i have left with a phone that still doesnt connect to wi fi and lost all my data. anyone knows how to fix it?

If no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, there is a hardware problem.

I have iPhone 5 IOS 8.1.2; for past 13 weeks I get message that my phone has not backed up on the cloud. Every night however the wifi is on, phone is connected to power, and screen is locked. Any idea why back-up is not happening ?

I have an iPhone 5 IOS 8.1.2;
for the past 13 weeks I get the message that "this phone has not been backed up on the cloud". However, every night it is connected to wifi, phone is connected to power, and the screen is locked. Any idea why back-up is not happening ? By the way, I do not have the "back up now" option in Setting / iCloud.. Help anyone ?

Try deleting an other icloud backup and see if it will automatically backup.
