  • I am having problems backing up icloud. the message says, "the last backup could not be completed."  Has anyone had this problem?

    I just purchased more icloud space and I ham having problems backing up icloud on my iphone 5.  The message says,"the last backup could not be completed."  Anyone know why this is happening.

    This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail.  To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup and choose Turn Off & Delete at the prompt.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Backup and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
    If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

  • I'm having problems backing up my iphone 4 to icloud since 13/04/2012. First it says it's going to take about 5 hours, then it says backup failed. Following instructions-connected to wi-fi, plugged into PC

    I'm having problems backing up my iphone 4 to icloud since 13/04/2012. First it says it's going to take 6 hours, then it says backup failed. Following instructions-connected to wi-fi, plugged into PC & locked the phone (though never had any problems like this before), but still no difference. Any ideas/similar problems?

    unfortunately there are tons of people with this issue but Apple has not given any answers for us to fix this issue yet. I wish they would allocate more people to solving these problems when they roll out new versions of itunes along with new hardware.

  • Having problems doing an iCloud backup it keeps showing the estimated time thing but the blue load bar hasn't budged in over a half hour is there a way to correct this

    Having problems doing an iCloud backup it keeps showing the estimated time thing but the blue load bar hasn't budged in over a half hour is there a way to correct this

    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
    First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
    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.
    If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • I'm having problem  with my icloud account,I don't have access to the email i once used to set up my icloud account,this is really affecting me,I can't backup and restore anything from my phone and device..anybody can help?

    I'm having problem  with my icloud account,I don't have access to the email i once used to set up my icloud account,this is really affecting me,I can't backup and restore anything from my phone and device..Can somebody help?

    Hi Maastricht2014,
    Until and unless you remember the password to your old email address, you will not be able to access the eBooks as those eBooks are only authorized with your old email address only.
    The only workaround or alternative to access your eBooks will be to contact the eBook vendor and ask them to migrate the eBook from your old email to the new one.
    Hope that Helps!

  • I have 10.5.8 and i'd like to update to Lion but I haven't the app store avaiable to my sistem and I can find the atualization. At the software update doesn't have any atualization... I updated my iphone4 to IOS5 and having problems to use ICloud

    As Retired Engineer indicated, you will need to install Snow Leopard first.  After you install Snow Leopard, you need to go into Software Update and perform the updates.  10.6.6 will install the App Store.  You should continue to update to 10.6.8 before purchasing and installing Lion from the App Store.
    Be sure your machine meets the minimum requirements.  Basically, any Mac with a Core 2 Duo processor or later and at least 2GB of RAM (but 4 is highly recommended).  If you have a first generation MacBook Pro with a Core Duo, you will not be able to upgrade to Lion.

Wait for 10 minutes for it to restart, then switch stations again. I've tested my download speed when it happens it's fine.

    What was the connection speed when you tested

  • Anyone having problem with the iCloud lately

    anyone having problems with iCloud sending from iPad to windows computer within the last week?

    I am having similar problems.  iCloud has been working great between my Mac and iPad, but within the last week, when I save a Pages doc (via my Mac) onto iCloud, it doesn't show up for me to retrieve on my iPad.  All my settings seem to be correct, and there are still plenty of other docs on iCloud that I have previously saved, but these new ones will not show up.  I have plenty of space left, so that is not the issue...

  • Saving Data back to DB Takes Forever

    Hi,
    I've created a multithreaded application which reads in data from a Database A (on Sybase Server), performs number crunching on the data, and saves the data to Database B (on SQL Server). I'm using JTDS for the sql server and JConnect (Sybase Drivers) for the Sybase server. The problem is it takes forever to save the data. I think it's getting blocked somewhere but can't seem to figure out where. Here's is a stack dump of the thread which is saving the data:

    and here is a stack dump of a thread which is waiting on the save data (all other threads -- 10 threads in total -- are at this point:

    Thanks for the help!

    Off hand, I doubt anyone knows a solution to this unique problem, not without actually looking at your code and how your doing threading (but you never know). Why do you need a multithreaded application? Why not one thread, open the first datasource, read in a pile of data into memory (not just one record), close the first datasource , process it, , open the other database and write it out. close that dataSource. Loop until all data is transfered. If all works ok, see if you can change the code to keep both datasources open at the same time before closing them.
    I assume your using connection pooling throughout.
    Again, off hand, I dont see a multithread application really speeding up the application much, my guess is that the bulk of the waiting is read/writing to the database and not processing. This is just a guess.

  • Having Problems with 10.5.57?  Then Please Read!

    If you've installed the 10.5.7 update and are having problems there are some possible remedies. Most often the problems are created by an existing problem in the system that is updated. Here are some things to do that could help:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Download the 10.5.7 Combo Updater and reinstall the update. Prior to installation remove all third-party peripherals. Use only the original keyboard and mouse that came with your computer.
    3. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder and repair permissions again.
    If this does not solve your problems, then you need to restore the backup of your old system, then follow the above instructions. If that doesn't solve your problem, then you may need to reinstall OS X from scratch or have your computer checked for possible hardware failure.

    Yes. They are inconsequential errors. See,
    Mac OS X 10.5- Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions reports issues with SUID files and OS X 10.5- Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore.
