Should I back up to ICLOUD

When you get your magazines on IPAD are they automatically downloaded? Why are some in newstands and others are not.
Also, I'm finding it difficult to navigate. Am i doing something wrong?

I think your title is wrong since this has nothing to do with the cloud backup.
whether or not things are automatically downloaded can vary from magazine to magazine. Some do, some don't. And there may be settings you can set for each publication.
as to why some are in newsstand and some not, newsstand is a service that iTunes provides publishers that they have to sign up for. Some do, some don't. For example, People magazine is a stand alone app and I don't think they'll go into newsstand while others have.
It's kind of like magazines selling subscriptions off their own website, and others contract out to a third party to also sell subs....some do, some don't. Or like how some airlines will sign up with Orbitz or Travelocity while others only allow reservations on their own site.
as to navigating it, I never have so I can't help you there I'm afraid.

HT4847 Which apps should I back up to iCloud?

I got a notice that I am close to my storage limit on iCloud so I an trying to clean my Storage & Backup folder out.
Are backing up apps like Pinterest, or shopping apps like Amazon or Ebay, necessary? What happens if I delete these from the Storage & Backup folder of iCloud?

check out this article:

And also this one: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4859
Deleting them from the backup won't delete anything from your purchase history. You can always redownload your purchases using this one: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
Hope this helps

HT5262 What should I back up on iCloud?

I'm confused, what can I turn off that doesn't really need to be on my iCloud.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can backup the iPad on your computer instead of iCloud if you prefer. If you turn off iCloud backup, settings will still be synced between devices, the only difference is that the iPad won't backup on iCloud

TS4009 Is there anyway to establish when my phone last backed up on iCloud if the phone in question is no longer usable?

My wife's phone was dropped down the loo just a day after returning from holiday with all our holiday snaps/vids on it. The phone is dead and only showing on iTunes as in recovery mode. No problem I replied, as it should have backed up on iCloud, however she then advised that the iCloud storage full message had been showing recently but was not sure for how long it had been there. Is there anyway to tell when the last back up occurred or do we have to wait for a new device to be be restored?

In 3 years I never synched my calendar to iCloud for fear I would lose my data. I explained all of this (and the fact that my phone had never been backed up to iCloud or iTunes to the tech at the Genius Bar (I was having wifi issues with my phone which is why I was there so I COULD START BACKING UP) and he assured me synching / merging to iCloud would not delete my calendar events: well, it did. Yes! I have spent hours with apple tech support and had my iTunes account in "troubleshoot " status so the engineers could go into iCloud to see if they could retrieve events. They found nothing. I just don't understand where it goes if it's on the phone? I know there are ways forensic engineers retrieve "lost " data on cell phones. I just thought it might be worth it to post on here and see if there is any hope .

My iPhone is stolen. How can I get my address book back from the iCloud? I should have synchronized my iPad address book. However, I loss some recent contacts from iPhone.

I use my iPad to get the address book backed up by iCloud from my iPhone. However, I cannot see the recent new contacts from my iPad. Is there anyway to check the iCloud server to see if my address book backup from my iPhone is still there?

How do you get your information, that's on your icloud, something was taken off my notes that should be back-up in my icloud. Help

The syncing of Notes, isn't a back-up. All it does is to sync Notes to other devices. Whether being a Mac, another iOS device or icloud.com
This is the same with Contacts, Calendars and what not.

I had backed up all my info on iCloud on my new iPhone. I am setting up the new phone- I checked back up by iCloud- Now it says no back up available. You can set up as a new iPhone or restore from iTunes back up-What should I do?

I just got a replaced iphone and I checked back up on icloud, entered apple id and password. Now it says no backups available. You can set up as a new iphone or restore from an iTunes back up. What should I pick because I had checked back up with icloud and all of my info was supposed to be backed up?

You may need to update the software. For now, set up as a new iPhone and then go to Settings > General > Software Update. Update to the latest iOS (5.1.1), then go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings to go through setup again and see if your backup appears.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try restarting the phone and trying again.
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.

And what if my brother backs up in icloude but all his clander has been deleted and wants to get the event in the calender back , what should he do ?

Assuming he has a backup that includes the data that has been deleted, then we should use that backup to restore his device.

HT204053 If i have safari os x 10.6.8 on my imac 27" and want to back up to icloud should i upgrade

If i have safari os x 10.6.8 on my imac 27" and want to back up to icloud should i upgrade to os x lion? is there a reason not to do this on my mac?

Can you:
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Should you upgrade is your decision. If you don't need the advanced features of Mavericks, then there is no reason to upgrade. If you don't use applications that require Mavericks to upgrade, then you don't need to upgrade.
Note that beyond Snow Leopard you won't be able to run PPC-only applications such as Office 2004.

HT1766 how long should it take to back up to icloud?

How long should it take to back up to icloud?

Depends on how much needs backing up and your wifi speed. 5-30 mins maybe?

HT1766 How long should it take for a icloud back up of about 6.4GB? It has been running all night and not complete.

How long should it take for an icloud backup of about 6.4GB? I selected a manual backup and it has been running all night? Thanks

That's going to depend alot on your internet connection speed. 6.4 GB is alot of data, especially if your connection speed is slow (DSL) or low-end cable speeds of ~1.5 Mbps.

Okay, I am now on IOS5. How do I know my data is being back up in iCloud? I did sign up for a me email account. Also, we have two IPads, as long as we have the same iTunes account should everything "live together" in the iCloud?

Okay, I have upgraded iPad and ipad2 to IOS5, how do I know my data is backed up in iCloud? Also, will both iPads be under one iTunes ID?

The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.
