Restoring and Deleting Icloud

I recently purchased my a used MacBook Pro from my cousin. I already googled how to restore to factory settings. Does this disable icloud and apple from her Apple ID so I can add my own?

How to restore a deleted iCloud backup? I deleted the backup to free up the 5 GB free storage and now on my iPhone some of my Contacts are missing a phone

How to restore a deleted iCloud storage backup?
I deleted it all to free up the free 5 GB storage and now on my iPhone 5s some of my Contacts are missing a phone # info and some of the Contacts are missing entirely. Thank you.

I used this to restore my deleted notes from Time Machine, hope this helps others
closed Notes,
turned WiFi off,
entered finder/go+option/ to 'get to library': /Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Notes/
entered TM and selected the 3 files/ hit restore/ keep both (just to make sure, then I deleted the newer file, not the 'restored' file when this worked out)
opened notes and my deleted notes were back so I copied my notes into pages as a backup,
turned on WiFi and the notes disappeared!
replaced my restored notes by copy/pasting my backups into notes/iCloud....
notes/mac would not show across iCloud.... don't remeber this being an issue prior to Mavericks when 'all' notes were selected?
Apple needs to hear from us so they can fix glitches like this. TM was created for instances like this, hopefully this is just an oversite. Pass this along to Apple Feedback/iCloud/bug. If enough of us flag such issues, hopfully it's addressed on the next update.
Dear Apple, this should be much easier than it is. We should be able to open Notes, go into Time Machine, and restore anything regardless if it's on my Mac or on the cloud.

Everytime I connect to iTunes the message ' iTunes was interrupted while restoring the contents of the iPhone. would you like to restore the phone again now? With the options cancel, continue restore and delete back-up??

I upgraded to iOS 5 on my 3GS without any issues but now everytime I connect to iTunes the message ' iTunes was interrupted while restoring the contents of the iPhone. would you like to restore the phone again now? with the options of cancel, continue restore and delete back-up. what happens if i click delete back up?

I'm not getting the message anymore!
What I did:
1.- Went to preferences in itunes/ Devices --> erased the corrupted backup (there were two backups)
2.- Upgraded to iOS 5.0.1
Done!
PS: Maybe upgrading solves the problem without erasing the corrupted backup

Hi Prince,
OK, so you did turn on PhotoStream on your device. On iCloud.com there is no setting for PhotoStream - it is not needed. PhotoStream only get "turned on" on a device or a computer (in the computer settings - not on the website).
So, once it is turned on, you take a picture, and it may take a few minutes before you see it in the PhotoStream on your phone. If you take a couple of pics and they don't show up, say within a half an hour, then you might want to do a reset on your phone (press the Home and Power buttons at the same time, and hold them down until the silver Apple appears - you won't lose anything by doing this....) Once it comes back up, you could try a couple more pics, or check the PhotoStream to see if the ones you took previously are there.
Not sure about the option at the bottom of the Photo App - I think it is a permanent item (like Places - I don't use Places for my photos, but it is there all the same.
I agree with you that it is a great backup for your photos - especially if you don't regularly sync to a computer. PhotoStream will keep up to 1000 of your photos, so it's good insurance against losing them. Just as a major user of the camera on my iPhone, I would recommend that you do back up to your computer as well. Videos are not saved in PhotoStream, so those would be lost if anything ever happened to your phone and you had not backed up to a computer....
But don't give up on PhotoStream either - it's not only great for backing up those last 1000 photos, it is also great for sharing between devices (say, if you have an iPad).
So, give it another try, and if you have any questions, post back!
Cheers,

How to restore a deleted iCloud note from time machine backup?

The short of it... one of my kids decided they didn't need certain notes, therefore deleted them!!!!
(my fault i did not have notes/synced/off on new device!),
but they are important and iCloud is synced across all devices and those notes are gone.
Wasn't sure if a device/ restore from back up would work - didn't.
Tried some of the Apple Communities/ going to lib/ turn off wifi/ move the 3 files to desktop/ move back to lib file, nothing.
Could I get some 'really specific' step by steps? seems others have had success, and maybe i'm in TM when I should be on my Mac or vice versa?! or in the wrong library?
My TM backups just does not let me get anywhere to restore those deleted notes.
Any help would be wonderful!
Thanks
Thinking Apple should have given us an iCloud safety net or at least allow TM/ iCloud to be userfriendly.

I have an ipod touch 2nd generation. I'm doing a restore and deleting it keeps showing apple screen then skull apple screen and it keeps doing it that for 12 hours not. How do i fix it to stop it

i have the 2nd generation ipod touch. i wanna to restore to factory settings but i couldnt do it through itunes. So i went in the settings to rest and delete. it keeps loading the apple screen and the apple turns to a skull and keeps repeating the screen for like 12 hours or more now. how do i fix it?

The skull indicates that the iPod is jailbroken
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

How do I restore a deleted iCloud calendar?

I inadvertently deleted my default iCloud calendar, and as a result lost all the entries it contained - in fact all the entries the calendar ever contained. . So did my spouse, with whom I had shared the calendar. Is there a way to restore the lost calendar, or its entries?
Many thanks in advance for any assistance rendered.
Jack

This is a bit tricky, but you can do it this way:
1.
Quit Calendar
2.
Take machine OFFLINE - Disconnect from Internet (UNPLUG IT!)
3.
Open Time Machine
4.
Go to ~/Library/Calendars
5.
Restore appropriate calendars (in GUID.caldav/GUID/calendar - check info.plist)
6.
Open Calendar - Restored calendar should be there
7.
Choose Export->Export… Save as .ics file on desktop
8.
Reconnect Internet
9.
Watch calendar disappear
10.
Import->.ics file as new calendar on iCloud

HT201418 how do i restore a deleted icloud backup?

I deleted an ICloud backup from my Iphone. Is there anyway to reverse that and get my pictures back?

If you synchronize any of your calendars with a server such as iCloud, disable that synchronization. Quit Calendar.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Calendars
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Enter Time Machine and restore that folder from the snapshot you want.
Relaunch Calendar and test. Your calendars should be as they were when the snapshot was taken. If you don't sync with a server, stop here. If you do sync some of the calendars with a server, select each one in turn and then select
File ▹ Export ▹ Export…
from the menu bar. You'll get ICS files with the filename extension ".ics". Re-enable sync. Usually, all the calendars you just restored will be deleted. That's not a problem. Create a new calendar on the server for each one you exported and want to sync:
File ▹ New Calendar
Then import the calendar from the corresponding ICS file by double-clicking it. Follow the prompts to import the new events to the calendar you just created. For calendars that you don't want to sync, just import them again. They'll appear in the calendar list under On My Mac.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Restore accidently deleted iCloud backup data

I accidently deleted one of three iCloud backup data and how can I get it restored?

I'm afraid that iCloud backups are not backed up. If you delete a backup it cannot be restored.

Restore after deleting iCloud account.

Hello,
I bought an iPhone 5S second hand.
The owner deleted his iCloud account in front of me : Setting>iCloud> "delete account"
Back home, I restored the phone with the lastest firmware. It worked perfectly well.
The phone rebooted.
But now it is asking me for the iCloud email/password that was previously deleted.
The owner has left the country. I only had his phone number (that is now disconnected).
What am I supposed to do ?

Based on Apple Documentation, if the old owner did disable Find my iPhone, you wouldn't have to enter a password, as the Activation lock is a Find my iPhone functionnality and it works with it. Disabling it disables the activation lock too. But seeing your situation; this may help:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
(You will need to find the previous owner for that)

I have 21,000 contacts due to an issue during sync with MS Outlook. Every time I try to select all and delete, iCloud crashes. There's no way I'm going through them say 10 at a time as I'll be there forever. What's the solution?

PLEASE HELP!
I just want to delete them all.

Go to icloud.com and select a smaller number. You may be able to delete hundreds at a time, or perhaps a thousand.
If you have an iOS device syncing with the account you can also delete them all from your iOS device with an app like My Contacts Backup.
Be careful as you do this. If you delete them from iCloud, they will be deleted from any device syncing contacts with iCloud at the same time.

How to turn off Find My iPad and delete iCloud Lock on iOS 7.1.1

How do I unlock Find My iPad or iCloud lock with out a password on iPad 2, 3, 4. I tried once on one iPad starting from iCloud, type oooooooo, the click OK and cancel. Then I went back to delete the word, "iCloud" click DONE and OK. Find My iPad wasn't deleted this time. I think the idea is to make sure Find My iPad is off. Then I can delete the LOCK or account that came with the device. HELP!

Thanks for your attention. The account's owner is unknown.
I didn't put in detailed information.
Believe it or not, I was able to remove iCloud lock on an iPad by hitting 8 zeros as a password (since I didn't have one) and made sure the Find My iPad was off. That is called a bypass.
Needless to explain much, I am more looking for a solution to turn off Find My iPad on another iPad and I have not been successful.
I looked up many clips on YouTube. I wonder that Apple has updated terms and conditions with a more secured feature on iCloud.

How can i download photos to my IPhone after Disable and Delete ICloud Photo Library?

I`ve started to use Icloud Photo Library, but i`ve decided to not use anymore because just a few photos were uploaded to the cloud.
So, I`ve turned off my ICloud Photo Library entirely at Manage Storage section of ICloud Settings. After that i`ve been trying to re-download my photos to my IPhone, by "Transfer and Keep Originals" set up, but it isn`t working!

You cannot. this is how the iphone handles photos.
ALL PHOTOS synced to iphone can be accessed via the "Photo Library". Those same photos can also be accessed from the folders that you synced. Just as you can find a book in your public library and you find the same book in the fiction section.
Stop trying to resolve it as there is nothign to resolve. All is working as it should.
