TS3992 my ipad will not back up manually , what do i need to do

i have storage but ipad will not complete the back up

If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test:   Go to...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options.  Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup.  If that doesn't work, then this post will not help.  If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup.  If successful, keep repeating these steps.  If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail.  (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

    My iPad will not back up.  I can restore but will lose a lot of data.  Is there anyway in which you can force a back-up?

    After downloading ios 7.0.2, my ipad will not charge completely.  What can I do to fix?

    I've the same problem after installed iOS7.0.2, my ipad3 just couldn't charge to 100% when pluging on my desktop, so I have to use wall plug for full charge. I am sick of iOS 7 and wish I didn't upgrade it.

  • My ipad will not turn on.  What should I do.

    My iPad will not turn on.  What should I do.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My iPad will not back up on the cloud or on my PC or on my brand new iMac

    IS there any fix for an iPad 2 that will not back up. I have tried the cloud back up and on the pc I originally paired with the iPad. I just bought a new iMac and it will not sync on it even though I went I went through the authorizing process. As a result of not backing up I cannot upgrade to IOS 6

    When trying to sync with iMac I got the following: attempting to copy to disk IMacintosh HD failed. Unknown error (oXe8004002)
    When trying to back up on the cloud, the back up time bar went to about 3/4 of the way to finishing and stopped. The message said that it could not be backed up.
    When I previously tried to download IOS 6 using the PC, I had originally synced with the iPad, it looked like it loaded the IOS6, but crashed during the back up phase.
    When I go to iCloud.com, it asked me to set up the devise, but when I go to settings it shows my account number and the list of mail, calendar, etc. that is synced

  • TS3992 My iphone will not back up with iCloud. it keeps popping up a push notification telling me that i do not have enough storage available for the back up. but in my settings and storage it tells me i have 2.8 GB of 5 GB free space, help!?

    My iphone 4s will not back up with iCloud. it tells me i dont have enough iCloud storage available, that i can manage my storage in my settings, when i click the settings it tells me i have 2.8 GB free space out of 5 GB. i dont know what to do about this problem. it hasnt been backed up in 3 weeks. and if i still have icloud space avaliable on my phone i do not need to purchase more. i have very few aps backed up on my icloud. i do not understand this help me please

    Go to Settings>General>Usage and see how much space is available on your phone (listed at the very top).  The pop-up might be telling you that you don't have enough space on your phone to perform the backup, not that you don't have enough space in your iCloud acount to store the backup.

    My Mac will not allow me to "log out". What should I do?

    Greetings,
    What happens when you attempt to go to Apple Menu > Log out?
    Assuming you are running Mac OS X 10.6.7:
    Backup your data: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
    SafeBoot your computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
    Login to your normal Admin account while in SafeBoot
    Download and install the 10.6.7 combo while in SafeBoot: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
    Restart the computer as normal and then see if you can logout.
    Hope that helps.

  • Upgraded to iTunes 10.5 and now iPad will not back up

    I upgraded to itunes 10.5 so I could install iOS5 on my iPad.  The upgrade to iTunes 10.5 went fine but now itunes doesn't recognize my iPad and getting lots of different error messages on why it can't back up......i've tried to reboot my pc which runs XP, hard boot of iPad, started the Mobile Service Device and nothing seems to fix the problem.   Anybody have this experience and able to fix?   I notice I have several apps to update on my iPad as well and it won't do so as it says they are not compatible.   Not sure if this is related.   

    Some of us have our enture itunes library backed up on CD/DVD - what a waste of time and effort as now presumably you can't use these discs to restore itunes on a new computer! WHY NOT APPLE?
    Very unimpressed with itunes 10.5/ios5 - wifi tracking apps have been removed from the store (and won't function in ios5), it's impossible to sync photos (I have spent a whole day trying to sync my iphone 3GS with itines 10.5) to no avail and now, no CD backup facility.
    I have never had problems with apple before - I was thinking of upgrading my whole system from PC to Mac but now I am doubtful - if this is typical of apple software, I will stay with windows!

  • Itunes 10.6.0.40 ipad will not back up to computer - only to icloud

    I just updated iTunes to 10.6.0.40, and now it will no longer back up to my computer - only to iCloud.
    Up until now, I've always backed up my iPad2 to BOTH the iCloud and to my computer.
    Now - I can sync to iCloud successfully, but when I then pick the "Back Up To My Computer" radio button, the SYNC button changes to two buttons, REVERT or APPLY.
    Pushing EITHER button has the instant effect of MOVING the selection from "Back Up To My Computer" BACK to "Back Up To iCloud".
    No matter what I do, I can't keep the radio button selected for "Back Up To My Computer" - every action I take, anything I try - it "bounces" back to "Back Up To iCloud".
    I actually want to back up to my computer first, and use iCloud only as a secondary backup, but now I CANNOT back up to the computer AT ALL.
    I am amazed that no one seems to have reported this issue yet, but it actually seems like I am the first, from what I can tell.
    Please advise - nothing disturbed the install, it ran fine, iTunes opened successfully, the music part of it seems fine - but the ipad backup is not working correctly anymore.
    In the previous version, I could switch back and forth between the two, backup to iCloud, then switch over, and back up to my computer, then switch back and back up to iCloud again - no problem. 
    THANKS!
    Dave

  • We upgraded our router to Belkin N300. The router will work with the IPad but not our PC. What do we need to do?

    Our PC is about 8 years old. It does not like the new Belkan router. We can receive emails but cannot send or forward the emails. The IPad is working perfectly. Any suggestions?

    First thing to try is reset Printing System:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    Next would be reset the router (power off 15 secs then back on). And, 2 minutes later, reset the printers 1 by 1.

  • IPhone 4S will not back up or complete sync in itunes

    I recently received a "new" aka reconditioned iPhone 4S from my mobile providers insurance company after wifi / 3G failures in my original 4S. I have been able to restore from a back up I made of my original phone but I have three problems with this phone I am looking for advice on.
    1) phone will not back up manually to my computer in iTunes (back up button/menu options are greyed out)
    2)  phone is not recognised over wifi (box is checked)
    3)  sync over usb will transfer data to phone but does not complete in iTunes - stuck on "waiting for items to copy" (step 5 of 5)  I have read multiple posts on this but the solutions offered have not worked in my situation.
    I have restarted my Macbook, hard reset my iphone.
    iPhone 4S  OS 6.1.3
    MacBook Pro Retina  OS X 10.8.4
    iTunes  11.0.4
    Driving me nuts so hope someone can help.
