The only app I have ON to back up is PHOTOS (2.4 GB) but it says it still needs 4.4 GB to back up the phone. WHY?

I have deleted back up for all other apps on my phone, but it still says there is not enough room. Why is there not enough room when I have less apps on my phone, less photos, and less apps to back up? The screen in settings say I have 618 MB available on the 5.o BG icloud- but not really sure why. Then when I try to back it up it says it needs an additional 4.4 GB of storage. Help please!

This article explains what gets backed up in your iCloud backup:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859
It also explains how you can manage the storage.
If you have gone through the storage management already, and still have this result, you should restore your iPhone to clear out some of the old clutter and perhaps better synchronize the actual vs. predicted storage amounts.

  • HT201412 My slotomanis application is not responding.  It goes continuously in thr loading mode.  This started 3 days ago after a prompt to update.  This is the only app I have this problem with.

    My slotomania app is not loading.  This has been going on for 3 days ever since I followed the app store prompt to upgrade. 

    Close the slotomanis app on the Task Bar and re-launch.
    1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar
    2. Hold slotomanis app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close app
    4. Tap area above Task Bar to return to Home screen

  • I have deactivated my iMac and need to switch to MacBook Pro, but MacBook says I still need to deactivate a computer.

    Going out of town and need to switch to my MacBook. On my iMac I went to Settings cog / Preferences / Account / Sign out. Then when I try to sign in on the MacBook It says I have reached my limit and need to sign out of another device. I have tried several times over the last two days and keep getting the same error. How do I accomplish this?

  • Why can I no longer use an image for my signature on forms?  The only option I have now is "use a certificate".  It was never like this until today.

    Hi,
    I had never heard of someone using the iPhone Number as the ID in the iMessages account in the Mac version.
    i.e without adding an Apple ID
    iMessages does allow iPhone numbers and mine lists mine.
    I would try this.
    Sign Out of the iMessages account and Quit Messages
    On the iPhone in Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID
    Set the iPhone to Airplane mode for a few minutes (to break with the  Server)
    On starting the phone up again check the iPhone Number  is ticked for iMessages.
    If it is add the Apple ID
    On the Mac restart Messages
    Add the Apple ID
    At this point you should get a pop up or two saying the iPhone is using the Number and Apple ID.
    Accept these and they get added to the Receive At list and Send From drop down.

  • I have ios 5.1.1. When I sync to iTunes, my purchased apps no longer work. They blink but do not open. The only way I have been able to solve this, is as follows: I delete one of the apps and then re-download and install it. Then, all my apps work.

    My new iPod touch 64 Gig has a problem after syncing with iTunes. My purchased apps no longer work. I touch them and they seem to try to open but they do not.
    The only way I have found to fix this is as follows:
    I delete one of the purchased apps. Then I go to the App Store and re-download and install the same app. After that, all my apps work again.
    Please help.

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • I can't view the pictures I've downloaded from my ipad to my PC. The only options I have is Tunes, TV, Movies or Apps. How do I view pictures on my PC.

    I can't view the pictures I've downloaded from my ipad to my PC. The only options I have is Tunes, TV, Movies or Apps. How do I view pictures on my PC.

    What happens when you try to play the actual film ? And have you tried deleting them and (assuming that they're still in the store) redownloading them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page - or going into Edit > Preferences and on the Store tab ticking the 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' tick box so that they show in the My Movies part of your library with a cloud icon against it for redownloading) ?
    (You can't store films in the cloud, whether they will show there for redownloading depends upon what country that you are in - and if you move countries or if the rights-holder removes them then you also won't be able to redownload them. Ideally you'd be taking a backup copy of all of your downloads, and not relying on being able to redownload them in the future.)

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

    The iBook does not have a backup (PRAM) battery. It only has the main battery and a small capacitor which maintains the settings long enough to do a battery swap. If the battery is dead, what you are seeing can happen.
    If the battery is not a problem (or even if it is), you could try resetting the PMU and see if that helps.

  • Why won't my pandora work when I'm not on wifi? I have the cellular data on for it but I never works. Also pandora isn't the only app of mine that does that.. What's wrong with it??

    Why won't my pandora work when I'm not on wifi? I have the cellular data on for it but I never works. Also pandora isn't the only app of mine that does that.. What's wrong with it??

    You're welcome.
    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

  • Over the past week the Mac mail app on my iPad 2 has become locked in vertical orientation and only in the orientation such that the bottom is orientated toward the menu button. Any advice? This is the only app that seems to have been affected.

    For the past week or two, my Mac Mail app for my iPad 2 has been stuck in vertical orientation. This is the only app that is similarly affected. Moreover, it will only orient itself such that the bottom is toward the menu button on the iPad.  Please advise if you have a solution.

    Try closing the Mail app via the taskbar and see if it rotates when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • HT201269 I am trying to restore an old back up to a new phone but it will not allow because it says the "old iphone" password is incorrect but the password I am using is the only password I have?? Help?  What does this mean?

    When using the iPhone with the Windows OS, you need to have the Apple Mobile Device Service running. It should start automatically when you start the computer, but sometimes things happen. Use this support document to try and restart the service. See if that helps.

    Also, just updated the phone's software today, and iTunes' software is already up to date.

    Hi Gregg,
    Have you tried resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your Music app is behaving normally.
    Cheers,
