Itunes phone backup fails on 6-plus running 8.1.3

When I try to back up my iPhone 6-plus via iTunes (iTunes 12.1.1; iOS 8.1.3), an error pop-up appears, saying
Despite this, both the phone and itunes keep the sync icon spinning and files carry on transferring.
This bug has persisted through 2 iOS updates and 2 or 3 iTunes updates.
Synching usually works via cable, but usually fails to start vi wi-fi

I have the same problem on my iPhone 6 plus!
I took my phone to the genius bar today because my camera wasn't focusing, and when I got my phone back, after they replaced the camera, the touch id was not working at all. I can't even add new fingerprints, because it keeps saying it failed, yet it won't even let me try to add it. SO STRANGE! My reachability feature stopped working, too.
Also, my wallpaper was blurry, try to reset it and it said it couldn't download the picture from my iCloud. There is also an update available, but I cannot download it because I get an error message.
I tried all the same things you did, and it was to no avail.
Going back to the genius bar tonight.

PC Suite 6.6 Complete phone backup fails

I am trying to backup my 6680 and its memory card to my PC. PC Suite 6.6 always fails with a critical but unknown error message after about 2 minutes of the backup running it fails. I am connecting the 6680 to my PC using the supplied USB cable. I am able to use all the other components of PC Suite without difficulty. Does anyone have any ideas ?

I have the same problem, but I've narrowed it down to it not being able to download the contacts.
I'm using firmware Version 3.04.37
My Phone: Nokia E70 - Firmware 1.0610.05.07 (30-05-06) - PC Suite 6.81.22

TS3992 icloud phone backup failing because wifi disconnects automatically when locked

I'm trying to use icloud backup for the first time. I have 15GB storage available and my backup is going to be a little over 5GB.
Every time I start the backup, it fails because it says I am not connected to wifi. I do have a very good wifi signal and I am plugged in, the problem is that when the phone is locked, the wifi automatically disconnects.
What can I do?
Thanks

Replace your router the issue is your router isn't maintaining connectivity

Hello
The previous contributor is correct, the profile is usually read from ORACLE_HOME. I have never seen this error linking to the Oracle client directory, please double check the following
Ensure that your envirionment variables are correctly set ORACLE_HOME, DIR_LIBRARY
Brtools are always installed on the DB server and can be called from any application server. if you are scheduling from DB13 on the application server, what is the connection setup? RSH, RFC, standalone gateway?
If using a standalone gateway, it must be installed on the DB server, please refer to oss notes #446172, #1025707
Best Regards
Rachel

I am trying to update my iTunes to 10.5.1 so that I can upgrade my 3GS phone but am getting the following error message when trying to install the itunes: Install step failed: Run pre upgrade script for apple mobile device support. Contact software manufacturer for assistance. I am on a MacBook pro running 10.5.8 OS. Has anyone seen this before and how can I get it resolved.
Thanks for your help in advance....

Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
Thanks!

Can I restore my info to a new iPhone 6 plus using a backup of an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.1.2?

Just bought a new phone and want to import all my app settings and information. I have heard all the complaints about iPhone 4s running iOS 8 and don't want to update until I have it preinstalled on a new 6+.
Can I restore my info to a new iPhone 6 plus using a backup of an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.1.2?
or would I have to upgrade my 4S to iOS 8, backup, and then restore the new phone. I need to ensure that my 4S powers on and works so I can receive trade in credit for it (~$200), so this is worth a bit to ensure that my 4S stays functional.
Thanks

You can load a backup from an earlier iOS version onto a device with a later iOS version, but not the other way around.
If you're going to do this, I'd recommend doing a backup of your 4s to your computer (not iCloud) and load the backup onto the 6+ from the computer. You can try an iCloud backup/installation, but also do a local backup in case something goes wrong. A local backup is more comprehensive than an iCloud backup, and in my experience it loads more reliably.

ICloud Backup fail. iOS 5 running on Verizon iPhone 4

When I turn iCloud Backup on, I keep getting a badge that says:
iCloud Backup Failed>There was a problem enabling iCloud Backup.>Cancel>Try Again.
My iCloud was merged from my old MobileMe account.
My iMac is a G5 PPC running OS X version 10.5.8. I understand that it cannot sync with iCloud, but my iPhone should be able to backup to iCloud, no?

No, you're not the only one. It sounds exactly like what is happening to my phone. Keep looking through related posts as there are some things to try if you haven't done that already.

As stated in the System Requirements, an iPhone 5 runs iOS 6. In order to sync to a computer you must have OSX 10.6.8 or later and iTunes 11 on the computer. If you can upgrade your MacBook to OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) you can purchase this version of OSX in the Apple Store. Most intel macs can run at least OSX 10.6.8. If your MacBook is a power pc Mac you are at the end of the supported operating systems and will not be able to upgrade the OSX or sync your iPhone 5.

How can I contact Viber support? When I go to their website there's no such thing as 'email us' or 'contact us'.
They may have a do-it-yourself troubleshoot system but that doesnt help my problem at all.

Numerous attempts at a clean install of iTunes have failed. I am running Win7 64 bit on a Toshiba L series Satellite w/8G RAM and 100 G HDD space. Error message was (-42404), but following a complete (recommended) uninstall am now getting "Error 7".

Error message was (-42404), but following a complete (recommended) uninstall am now getting "Error 7". The prior uninstall included the establishment of administrator rights to files and folders left in the Apple folder after running the uninstaller, and successfully removing ALL visible and hidden Apple files and folders.
Any other suggestions out there folks?

On Oracle Metalink site, there are many documents which says that Oracle 32 bit software works on 32 bits OS and 64 bits software works on 64 bits OS. Official support is only in those combination....
So there is no good way to help you in your case-XE is 32 bit application with hard codded compiled libraries which most of them would not work on 64 bit OS.

I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

After I updated my phone I lost all my pictures and the new apps I downloaded. I would really love my pictures back does anyone know how? It said that the backup failed during the process. Is it all lost?

I went to update my phone and after the update I recieved a message that it failed and that the back up failed. I had to restore my phone to stock. I just want to know if there was a possibility to get my pictures back. I tried to get my phone to restore from my last back up but it wouldn't do that either. Does anyone have any ideas. I am really only worried about my pictures and videos I had a couple hundred and they were important.

Thank you. I have been reading about a lot of these occurances and many people have been able to get their pictures back through iexplorer however I am unable to. The error number I got was 50 or something like that. I have a feeling I will not be able to get the pictures back because it said the backup failed after the update failed.

I went on Itunes to install new software and backup. I has been running all night and still saying preparing Iphone for restore. How long is this suppose to take?

Preparing your iPhone for restore its supposed to be about 1-2 minutes! Do you see any errors the time you plug in the wire from your iPhone to iTunes?

How to retrive data from encrypted backup(failed in itunes) - i have the password!!

I know there are other software that may help to retrive the data but it doesn't work with encrypted backup.
Now i have the password, i have the encrypted backup (failed to recover in itunes).
What can i do? is it possible to remove the password from the encrypted backup provided that i have the password????

No, it's not possible.
What happens when trying to restore the backup via iTunes? It is entirely possible that the backup is simply corrupted.

My iPhone 4s screen went black. I can hear the phone receiving messages though. I tried to restore through itunes. I failed because "find my iPhone" app is on, I cannot switch it on since the screen is black and I can't see

Instead of trying to restore through iTunes, use the Find My iPhone to your advantage.
Either go to www.icloud.com and perform a remote wipe of the device via FMiP, or download the FMiP app to another iOS device and do it from there.
A remote wipe will also restore the device back to factory settings.
