My iCloud says it can't backup

Evertime we unlock iPad an iCloud message comes up and says it can't back up due to not enough space. I plugged it in to laptop and did a back up on there but still doing the same thing

Go to settings - icloud - storage and backup and turn off icloud backup. Remember to backup to computer from that point. Not that you will, everybody forgets.

TS3992 old iphone won't verify my icloud account. Can't backup my old phone so I can start using my new phone

My iphone won't verify my account even though I did it thru the email confirmation as instructed. I can't verify my i cloud account on my phone, it just keeps spinning saying it is trying to verify the acct, so I can't backup my phone info. I can't restore my current phone info to my new iphone until I get the original iphone backed up. Everything online seems to be setup and working, but my phone still won;t recognize the account. Should I delete the accoutn on my phone an dstart again? Will I loose all my info in my Itunes account? Please help!!! This is driving my crazy!!!
I thought they called these smart phones? This is a lot of work with no end in sight so far. :-(

Did you click the Verify Now link on the verification email from Apple?

TS4002 I subscribed to serveral communities for email. I have over a thousand emails, now the mail box in icloud says I can't open my mail account. I have ML . I have been deleting little by little, can I delete it all?

I have tried deleteing all the mail, by selecting all to erase. I have done 5 at a time, 10 at a time by zooming out. Now I can not get into the mail box. I was sent a message saying I am not able to acess my mail. It is a me.com acct. I have 40gb of storage. Any suggestions of how to get rid of this mail? I don't want to give up my email address. Thanks. I did manage to stop all communty email and notifications. So no more email is coming. Again, thanks to anyone who can help me! Since I homeshare, I am sure all my other computers look the same! LOL.. I have only myself to blame, I guess. Linda

An Alias would be an email address that is delivered to a different account's inbox.
For instance if you have [email protected] and have [email protected] Then [email protected] would be an alias if mails from that address arrive at the icloud address.
If you want to add a completely different account, with a spearate inbox, like an account in hotmail and one in say yahoo mail. Then as has been pointed out, you need to go into the Settings Icon, Tap on Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and then on add account. The iPad has several services preconfigured, you can tap on one of those from the list to setup an email for that service. Such as Hotmail, Gmail etc...
Or you can tap on other to add a personal pop3 or imap type email like from your office, or your school.

Upgrade to iPhone 6 killed 1/4 of my iCloud contacts! Can iTunes backup help?

I got a new iPhone 6 and set it up with my regular Apple ID, which I also used on the old iPhone 5. Everything seemed to go well, applications, settings and contacts were installed on the new iPhone. After checking that everything works just fine I erased all data and setting on the old iPhone, because I'll have to return it to the carrier. So far so good.
A day later I started noticing that about 25% of my contacts have just disappeared, they are gone on all devices connected to iCloud (Mac, iPad and the new iPhone). Since they are also gone from apple.com/iCloud I guess they have vaporized for good.
I have an older iTunes backup, which probably still has those contacts, I am just afraid that I will get a total mess of touble contacts and God know what else will be messed up. Any recommendations how to recover those contacts?

Did you log into iCloud to see if all of the contacts were there? If they do not exist in the iCloud online, then they must not have synced correctly from the old device. Did you log in with the same iCloud account? You say you tried all of the troubleshooting steps, I'm guessing that you include turning iCloud contacts off and then back on again? Do you still have the 4s?

ICloud says there is server error when I try sign in on Windows Vista x32 service pack 2. Can't set it up on my PC any ideas?

iCloud says "you can't sing in because of a server error" running Windows Vista x32 service pack 2. Can't set it up on my PC any ideas?

I have used the solution below to fix mine and others that have run into this issue.
Start --> Programs --> Accessories (Right Click on Command Prompt) --> Run as Administrator
then type in: "Netsh winsock reset" (-without the quotes-)
Hit enter, restart PC, iCloud For PC should now connect without any server errors
(This solutions will work in some instances when trying to fix errors associated when you are unable to connect to iTunes also.)

Music wont sync on my new iphone 4s. Restored it from a backup and now there's no music on it. In the music tab it says: Thomas iPhone has access to music on iCloud. Songs can be fetched via WIFI or a mobile network. What to do?

Restored it from a backup and now there's no music on it. In the music tab it iTunes says: Thomas iPhone has access to music on iCloud. Songs can be fetched via WIFI or a mobile network. The pnly thing I can chose to sync are voice memos.
What can I do?

If you want all the songs from an artist on your phone you can to to the artist view, tap on the artist, scroll to the bottom of the list and you will see a Download All button. This works for playlists and albums too (scroll to the bottom and tap the Download All button). I suppose if you wanted all your music on your phone you could create a smart playlist in iTunes on your computer that would contain all your music, upload it to iTunes match (Store>Update iTunes Match), and then you would get a Download All button at the bottom of this playlist on your phone to download all your songs.

I upgraded to 20gb iCloud but it isn't enough to back up. I get constant error messages saying there is no backup space and I've not been able to use the upgrade. Apple promised to refund then didn't. Please help is there anyway I can use this space?

Please see the subject line thanks

If you were told they would refund the price for the iCloud storage - Contact AppleCare and ask to speak with a senior advisor. Have the case number for the promised refund available.
If you are trying to update your device, but you don't have sufficient space to download and install the update, you need to delete content from your device. Buying storage in iCloud does not add space to the device which is what you need.
You can always update using a computer with iTunes installed - this method is faster, and will allow you to make a backup on the local computer (Local backups restore faster than iCloud backups).
HTH

I just exchanged a faulty iPhone 4 for a new one, when I got home to restore it, iCloud says "cannot restore backup". Can somebody please help provide much needed advice? Thanks in advance!

Yep, that's the only message that popped out. Nothing else. Yes, it's running on the latest ios and I still can't restore it. I called apple and they told me it's probably something wrong with their servers. Anyway thanks for the advice.

I can't backup my iPhone 5. It says I don't have enough storage. So I've deleted like 6-7 apps and its still says I don't have enough storage. And it also says the say thing when I want to buy new apps or music. What can I do?

And it also says the same thing when I want to buy new apps or music. Also my messages won't send; I have to turn my phone off and resend then just to they can send. I can't even take any pictures because it says I have no storage.(I currently have 1,658 photos and 72 videos by the way.) What can I do? I just my phone in late December. I didn't think it would act up this bad before I even had it for a year. Please help.

Your phone needs more storage, buying storage on iCloud.com doesn't change that.
Delete some of the stuff off of your phone, it's full.

I can't backup to iCloud

icloud Backup Failed
There was a problem enabling iCloud Backup

Hello, I have a subscription with iCloud, however I can not back up from the April 11 I was in USA, so I get a message "failed complete the last backup "and all the time I salt eese message when I try to do it from my Iphon5 in Peru, but when I was in USA if I could do. On the other hand to say that I have tried different internet connections to rule that it is a porblema Internet but I could not and also I get and we can complete the backup in the cloud. I would like to know what is going on with my iCloud account and it will not let me do the back up only connected via WIFI and I can perform Back Up on the computer, but to avoid that's why I buy the subscription of iCloud.
I await your prompt assistance with this issue please.
PS: the amount of memory that I have available in the cloud is 14.7 GB and I think that should be enough to keep making backups.

I updated to the new software today and now in having several problems! Lost all my contacts. Anytime I try and back up to iCloud it says it can't be complete and now I get a cannot connect to store message. Help!

Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

I can't backup my iPhone to iCloud Last backup could not be completed

After updating to iOS7 I can't backup my iPhone to iCloud. When I try it starts up, then stops and says, "Last backup could not be completed"
Details: I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 7.0.3
Things I have already tried (in the order I tried them):
- Doing a 'hard reset' on the phone
- Buying more iCloud storage
- Deleting the old backup that was saved into iCloud (so now I have no backups saved)
- Turning phone off then on again
- Changing my iCloud password
- Deleting the iCloud account from my phone then signing in again
Other issue which may or not be related:
- I have yet to get the Music app to work on this phone since updating to iOS7. It opens then promptly crashes. This is secondary to getting the backups to work.
Any help would be appreciated!
