My new ipad won't back up from iCloud

I just got a new iPad wi-fi/4G LTE and for some reason it won't back up from my iCloud account. When I'm setting up my new iPad it says no back ups available even though I have my old iPad set to receive back ups from iCloud.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

  • New iPad won't download music from iCloud.

    iCloud is working with other applications but won't show the song I just bought on iTunes. I checked settings that I know about.

    No idea what that means since I've never seen the video. If you give some detail about what you have done so far, it might be easier to offer some assistance.

  • HT201269 Is it recommended to set up a new iPad using the back up from iPhone?

  • I set up new phone (5) as a "new phone instead of backing up from icloud. How can I get back in to use the icloud backup? If I hit "delete account" does that just clear the new phone or does it get rid of my whole icloud account.

    In the set-up process I clicked "set up as new phone" when I should have clicked "back up from icloud". I can't use itunes for the back up as it is not current. Is there a way to get back into setup? If I click "delete accout" in icloud management will it clear just my phone (so I can start over) or will it actually delete my icloud?

    Settings>General, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Reset, choose to delete all data.  Then attach to itunes and choose to perform a restore.  You'll get the option to restore from icloud.

  • I am setting up my new iPhone 5s with back up from iCloud but only my expired applied is recognised. even though i put in the original correct password it is not accepted as message comes up that "your apple id or password is incorrect". I am stuck.

    I am setting up my new iphone 5s using a back up from icloud. Problem arises when asked for Apple id and password the second time for store purchases. It shows my old expired Apple id (my old email address). There is no option to change the id and even when I put in the correct password for the old id (used originally) it kicks me out with the message ""Your Apple ID or password is incorrect" .. this is true  as my apple id is wrong but I cant change it. Anyone know what I should do. Dont have access to my old deleted email account. Thanks

  • My Ipad won't restore fully from icloud.

    My ipad 1 was stolen so I purchased an Ipad 3 and am desperately trying to reinstall all of my old data that I backed up to icloud.
    I connect the ipad to wi-fi, insert my apple id and password and it starts.
    Then I get the message -
    "restore incomplete. Some items could not be downloaded from the store. If they are on your computer, you can restore them by syncing with itunes".
    The items are not on my computer (mainly photos I'm missing).
    If I wait, the install continues until it can go no further, I plug it in to the computer and it installs the remaining video and music files.
    I've tried it a few times and at this point the photos never reappear.
    But twice miracuously later the image files I want will appear, but then get greyed out and start to delete themselves?!
    I've tried importing them via image capture and they won't appear.
    Has anyone experienced anything like this?
    The theft was annoying and I thought I had everything backed up, but now this is even more annoying!
    Thanks

    I have never restored from an iCloud backup to this point - but don't you get the option of several different backups that you can choose from when you restore from the iCloud backup - the last three backups that you have?
    If you do get a choice, have you tried another one. You will have to erase the device and start all over again, if you choose to do that.

  • New iPad air. books not downloading from iCloud

    I had quite a few books on Ipad 2. Just bought ipad air and after clicking backup from icloud only a few of my books are readable. When I click on them it says formatted incorrectly or is not a format that ibooks can open. Any ideas anyone?

    Reset your WiFi router and/or cable modem. Unplug it/them from power for about 30 seconds and then plug them in again. The I would restart the iPad and try again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop

    I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop & all is good until I did the update today. I show apps that need updates, which before they updated automatically. So when trying to updating it asked for my apple password. I kept Putting it in & it said no good. It is using my daughter I'd, not mine. I have checked all my accounts & settings, nothing has her id,just mine. How do I get it to my id?

    Copy the iTunes library from your backup as below:
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    Sync with the restored library.

  • TS4062 I replaced my iPad with a new one. I backed up to iCloud but did not do a physical iTune Sync. Now I am having trouble recovering some Notes and Photos. I have been reinstalling Apps from the App Store. How do I recover my Notes?

    I replaced my iPad with a new one. I backed up to iCloud but did not do a physical iTune Sync. Now I am having trouble recovering some Notes and Photos. I have been reinstalling Apps from the App Store. How do I recover my Notes?

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:
    Your calendars are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

    I have now but think it is the answer that said you can't stream photos that you had already taken.  Thank you for your trouble.

  • IPad won't back up

    I've never had an issue with my iPad until today. I had to replace my hard drive - the tech did it and migrated all my stuff onto my new HD. At first I had an issue with the iPad syncing and "step 2 or 4 calendars", but seemed to have fixed it.
    Now, the iPad won't back up in iTunes. I plug it into my laptop and is goes through the motions of syncing, then stops and says that it cannot on the computer. Should I be doing something because it's a new HD? Advice please, thank you.

    Hi,
    Not sure if this will help, but launch iTunes then from the menu bar click Store / *Authorize This Computer*.
    Restart your computer, connect the iPad and try syncing.

  • After I restored my ipad I chose itunes restore. now how can I get my info of which is backed up from icloud?.

    hi all!
    Reseting ipad, we are asked to restore info from icloud or itunes. If we choose icloud, the info will be restored, but the apps on the ipad should be downloaded from app. store! because icloud can't save the applications. and If we choose to restore with itunes, the apps will be loaded quickly ,But still we need our info in icloud. and if we go to icloud backup , from ipad settings, we just have one choice: back up now! that backs up the new info, not our backed up info. but we need our backed up info.
    After I restored my ipad I chose itunes restore. now how can I get my info of which is backed up from icloud?

    This is called "stealing". You do not have the legal right to give her the music you have in your iTunes library unless you are the copyright holder.
    when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first
    That's not quite what it said.  Someone should have paid more attention to the great big warning about the possibility of losing data if the phone wasn't backed up.
    We cannot find her new photos. Please help and there was 100 new pics. Is there any way we can get them back. I already have the program Asoftech - but it doesnt seem to register the iphone only C and D drive. Please help!
    It restored the backup that was made on your computer 6 months ago, which did not contain those photos. You're wasting your time trying to find them on the phone. They don't exist.
    Hopefully, your friend syncs her phone to her own computer on a regular basis. She needs to plug her phone into her computer and restore it from her last backup. That will restore it to the state it was in when the backup was made.
    She also needs to get in the habit of extracting the photos on a regular basis, like she would from any other digital camera.

  • I have just had a replacement IPad as the camera stopped working. Now the new iPad won't recognise my aol e mail for face time as well as my apple id. I have tried adding as a second e mail, but it says already in use

    I have just had a replacement iPad as the camera stopped working.
    Now the new iPad won't receive FaceTime calls at my aol.com email.
    If I try to add it as a FaceTime address it just says email address already in use.
    I guess it is still linked to the old iPad in some way
    Any suggestions? The old I pad is wiped and back in the store

    This Apple article should be able to help ya out -> iOS: FaceTime is 'Unable to verify email because it is in use'

  • My brand new IPad won't connect to my wi-fi box.

    My brand new IPad won't connect to my wi-fi box. I have been entering the required 26-character code (this is in France) over and over, phoning my supplier but to no avail. I have also checked bluetooth connection as some-one suggested in a discussion and its ok. I'm at a loss ! Can anyone help ? Thanks !

    Turn Bluetooth off in Settings > General > Bluetooth
    Having Bluetooth enabled while using Wi-Fi can cause interference.
    Now tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Restart the iPad. Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi. Make sure Wi-Fi is switched on.
    If it still won't connect, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
