IPhone 5s and iPod touch 5 quit automatically backing up

My iPhone 5s and iPod touch 5 have stopped automatically backing when I plug them in to charge while they are on wifi. My iPad 3 is still backing up correctly. I'm not sure, but this problem could have started with the update to iOS 8.3.
I tried logging out of iCloud on the iPhone and logging back in, but that didn't help. I have searched here and other places on the web, but haven't found a solution.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A number of conditions need to be in place for this to happen. Besides being plugged in and on wi-fi, your screen needs to be locked, so be sure this is taking place. If your iPad is continuing to back up, that indicates that you have enough free space in your iCloud account, so that's probably not the issue. I would check to make sure that your screen is locking after a set time.

  • How can I sync my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G to ANY computer/itunes without having to erase EVERYTHING on it?

    I need to use another laptop to sync my music, I've already synced my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G with my laptop and had to delete EVERYTHING to do so! I refuse to do this again, I was NEVER able to restore my phone back to it's original state since then.
    How can I sync up my idevices to ANY computer w/ iTunes without having to completely bomb my iphone and ipod? And if I can't do that, how can I back up all my music and apps? I've already tried "back up device" and that did absolutely NOTHING to help my predicament.
    Long story short, I had my devices synced to my desktop, my desktop broke, so I bought a laptop, synced my devices to my laptop after erasing all my data, and my laptop was destroyed during hurricane sandy, so now I have to use my parents/friends computers to sync new music and videos. BUT CAN'T BECAUSE MY DEVICES WERE ALREADY SYNCED TO MY LAPTOP AND DESKTOP!
    If I can get ANY help, I would greatly appreciate it.

    It means that nano was used on a third-party software or synced from different computer to sync music. Does that nano show in iTunes? If yes, then restore completely. If not, then you may need to head to Apple Store and see what they can do.

  • Encoding home videos for IPhone, AppleTV and IPod Touch

    Hi Folks,
    I'm on latest version of Compressor and FCP.
    Objective: to encode home video transfers to a format that is suitable for AppleTV, IPhone and Ipod Touch - in an efficient manner (this is key)
    99% of the videos would be VHS and camcorder tapes in SD format.
    I mentioned efficient manner b/c I tried running and Iphone encode through the presets in Compressor for a 2 hour VHS transfer - nothing fancy, just 12 chapters. I'm on my 2009 quad mac pro with 8 GBs RAM.
    The estimator through the 'share' feature said it was going to take over 3 hours before I quit. The other reason I quit is b/c it won't be compatible with AppleTV.
    I created DVDs for my client so I tried handbrake using the video_Ts folder and it created an IPhone/IPod Touch file no problem - only 40 minutes. Not bad. I tried the Universal preset and QT gives me an error that the finalized file isn't compatible.
    I guess my question is: does it matter quality wise, if I run through Handbrake vs compressor? For this particular client, there are 12 hours worth of videos to compress.
    I know about setting up a cluster on my mac pro, but everytime I try more than 1 file in a batch, the subsequent files fail. I can't even set a cluster up with my 2006 mac pro either - yes, I've had discussions with FCP support staff and have tickets. It's a bug
    So, any thoughts? 3 hours (at a minimum) seems awfully long to compress.
    Of course, I would be charging my client for these videos, but at that length of time, I'm not sure what a feasible cost would be for both sides.
    Cheers,
    keebler

    If you are send out self contained movies to be processed in Compressor with Standard Presets (no adjustment to frame controls) you should be getting decent speed. If you want I can try encoding a two hour DV clip. How far did the encoding get before you stopped it? The estimates are not necessarily accurate at the beginning.
    Also if you can get the Clusters working (disregarding the size of the batches for a moment) should help with speed. I run into limits of around 20 per batch so make multiple batches. Not the most optimal way, but could be worth it to get them all going. Set them up for overnight and it should be done in the AM.
    Creating off the Video_TS folder is compressing compressed material, so it could (should) reduce quality when compared to encoding original source material, though based on the quality of the source it may be more academic...
    I would try to get the Compressor end working myself. (Ignore using share, just open Compressor and put movies into it.)

  • I am having trouble synchronizing my calendars from my computer to my iPhone, iPads and iPod touch

    Since upgrading to Mt. Lion I am having problems syncing my calendars thru iTunes onto my iPhone , 2 IPad 2's, 1 iPad 3 and iPod touch. Some things will sync and some not. My whole family syncs to iCal on our iMac but lately none of the appts we put on our devices are syncing with the computer and vice versa. This happens whether we try wireless or wired sync. Any suggestions?

    Never mind:)  I finally found a post taht helped me figure out the problem.  You have to turn off the parental restrictions...duh!

  • IPhone, iPad and iPod touch Video

    On the next iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, you should really make it so you can screenshare, meaning you can take photos without the camera but you should be able to make videos. So when you take a photo, you press the home button and the turn off /turn on button at the same time quickly. If you hold them both at the same time for a few seconds, they should be able to take videos! It'd be a cool feature, considering skype is an app and FaceTime and people want to screen share. Hope it happens, and mention me for the idea! -Micah

  • Problems with iPhone 3G and iPod Touch with Car Stereos

    There are three cars in our family, and every car as a stereo with built-in iPod interfaces. Car 1 has a Pioneer system, Car 2 has a Kenwood, and my car has an Alpine system. I can't hear any audio when I connect an iPod touch or iPhone 3G to the Kenwood and Pioneer systems. They can perform functions on the iPhone/iPod touch, such as change songs, randomize songs, repeat songs, etc, however, there is no audio. 80% of the time the Alpine does the same thing; 10% of the time an error is displayed on the head unit; and 10% the iPod Touch/iPhone works perfectly.
    All three systems can operate my iPod Nano correctly without any problems at all. Because the same problem occurs to all the stereos and because the iPod Touch and iPhone are basically the same minus phone capabilities, I am beginning to believe that the problem is with them and not the stereo systems. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how can I fix it if it is fixable?

    Which Touch (first or second generation) and which iPhone (2G or 3G)?
    And what generation Nano are you testing with.
    Your auto systems may not be compatible with the newer generation model iPods/Phones.

  • Iphone 4s and Ipod touch - Download error, tap to retry.  Why is this happening?

    Hi
    I have a problem when I am trying to download music onto my iphone 4S.  It sometimes says download error, tap to retry.  Sometimes when i try later in the day it works. My friend also has the same problem with her ipod touch, but hers wont download at all.  Both are up to date with software etc.  Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Usually when you don't have enough space, your iPad will tell you that.  To be sure, go to Settings > About and see how much space you have left.  If you have more than 5 GB, you likely have enough space.
    I'd try rebooting your iPad and see if that solves the problem.  Press and hold BITH the power and home buttons at the SAME time until you see the Apple Logo, then let go of BOTH buttons and your iPad will restart.

  • Apple ID on iPhone 4S and iPod Touch

    I just got an iPhone 4S and gave my iPod Touch to my son. The iPhone uses an email for my Apple ID while the iPod Touch uses something different. Ideally I'd like to use the same ID for both devices. (I have purchased apps on the iPod Touch ID account). How can I accomplish this?

    To change the ID used for iTunes on a device using iOS 4, try going to Settings>Store, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want her to use.

  • Facetime - iPhone 4 and iPod Touch

    Facetime is running on the iPod touch - the iPod start a facetime call to my iPhone number - iPhone rings and wants to start a facetime session - but connection never happens. Any solution - any one else seen the problem? Anybody?

    @Mellody- On the iPhone4, there is no FaceTime app button. What you have to do is make sure that the other person you're FaceTime-ing with has an iPhone 4 and that BOTH of you are connected to a Wi-Fi Connection. Once you've confirmed that, open the Phone app. Go to the Contacts tab at the bottom. Scroll through your contact list and select the person you want to FaceTime with. Then, tap the button that says FaceTime below the contact's information.
    Hope this helped, Mellody!

  • IPhone 6 and iPod Touch 5 not being detected by iTunes 12

    iPod 5 and iPhone 6 is not being detected after I downloaded iTunes 12.1.2
    Tried changing the lightning conductor, that didn't help either.
    Re-installed iTunes but it was of no use. :/

    See iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
