TS4036 iCloud backup not showing up for my iPhone

Before replacing my iPhone, I backed it up to iCloud. Upon setting up my new iPhone, the backup I created is no longer visible. It shows my wife's iPhone, my kid's iPods and our iPad, but not my iPhone. Where is it?

I should be more clear about what took place. My wife and I wanted to switch phones (simply for aesthetic purposes -- one black phone and one white). I made backups of both phones to iCloud. I looked at the backups that were on iCloud to insure that her back and mine were both there. They were. I restored the phone for her first (using the phone that was previously mine), selecting her iPhone's backup during the restore process.
I then went to restore the phone for me (which had been her phone), but now my backup no longer showed up. It only shows me her phones latest backups -- as well as the iPods and iPad.
Is it because I'm using her former phone that it only shows me her backups? Why would it show the iPad and iPods then?
The last backup I have on a computer (iTunes) is from January, so that's pretty much useless.
As of right now, I feel all I can do is set it up as a new phone . . . but that's pretty discouraging. I would appreciate any advice.

All my contacts on iCloud are not showing up on my iPhone. Any ideas?

At first I had a list of contacts from iCloud and a list from MobileMe. I now have those merged... but the merged list isn't showing up on my iPhone. Does anyone have insights about what is occurring and how to fix it?

HT1766 Why is my iCloud backup not showing up when i try to ste up my replacement iPhone?

I just got my iPhone replaced and the man put all my data in iCloud. When I got to a Sprint store, the phone said there was no back up data. I've tried a million times and still can't do it. Please help.

Are you running iOS 5.1.1? If not, you may need to update the phone before you can access your backup. (You can't restore the phone to a backup made on a phone running a newer version of the iOS than the phone you are restoring from.)

Icloud emails not showing as read on iphone & iPad

In the past couple of weeks both my iphone and ipad have stopped showing emails as read when I've already read them on my macbook.
I've tried several things including, disabling mail and renabling it, switching off and on, restoring ios device and restoring from backup.
I see emails coming in but they are staying as being unread when I have read them.
Anyone any ideas please?
Thanks
Mike

Seems I fixed it.
Something had changed with my icloud settings and on my two ios devices under icloud mail settings it had the my email as [email protected] which I didn't even know about.
But on my MacBook the icloud setting had the email address as my old [email protected] which is also my account name for my icloud account and used to be the same email address on my ios devices until this problem started happening which I think coincided with the ios 6 upgrade.
So on my MacBook removed icloud from accounts under the Mail Preferences and then added it back in but set the email address as [email protected]
Then it took a while for all my mail to load back into the Mac Mail app on my MacBook and when it had finished it said I had 300 or so unread emails which is the same number that were showing as unread on both my ios devices but the same emails I had already read on my MacBook when the email address was [email protected]
So I went through again those unread emails on my MacBook and lo and behold looking at the ipad and iphone the unread count had been fixed.

HT1414 How do I restore from an earlier icloud backup that is not showing up for my ipad?

How do I restore from an earlier icloud backup that is not showing up for my ipad?

You can't. Usually you have only the most recent backup to choose from (I do). Some users has said they get 3 to choose from (this is the max as stated in Apple literature). You can't go back further than that.
The usual advice is that all photos should be synced to a computer (too many users have lost some/all their photos doing a restore - don't trust them solely to icloud). If you've been doing that, you can find them on your computer.

When I backed up my old iPhone on iCloud, the backup does not show up on new iPhone setup screen. How do I fix this?

if I backed up with a newer version of iOS than the phone I am trying to backup to.. Is there any way to bypass the setup assistant in order to download the new iOS on the new phone then go back and restore from my old phone?

I backed up by phone and now icloud is not showing my pictures over 1400 of them help

I backed my phone up and now icloud is not showing my pictures over 1400 of them. help?

Why do you believe this is true?
If you had PhotoStream turned on and your photos were syncing to it, PhotoStream holds the last 30 days worth of photos (up to 1000 photos maximum) in the cloud and they should sync back to the phone. Any photos taken more than 30 days ago and any photos greater than the 1000 photo capacity of PhotoStream, will have already been purged from the cloud and are no longer available for download.
IF you had photostream turned on, it stands to reason that you probably also had iCloud backups turned on, in which case you should be able to wipe the phone (settings>General>Resets>Erase all content and Settings) and restore it from your most recent iCloud backup.

Itunes match has removed my playlists from itunes and my iphone. Not only that, many of the songs 'matched' on itunes do not show up on my iphone. Seriously annoyed, wish I'd never paid for it

Please read the title; itunes match has removed my playlists on itunes and iphone and the songs that are supposedly 'matched' on itunes are not showing up on my iphone.
Any Really annoyed about this

iTunes Match does not have the ability to remove local files.
The service operates by comparing the selected iTunes Library with the iTunes Store content and 'matching' or 'uploading' - it is very straightforward a 'match' provides equivalent access to iTunes Store content as a recognised 'purchase'; upload simply copies a 256k AAC variant into the cloud. There are no elements of this activity that can erase the local library content.
Would suggest you explore possible alternative causes of file loss. Given the pattern described of selective deletion, leaving many Songs intact - would suggest making at least 2 secure offline Song file backups and starting the library again from a fresh install of iTunes once a thorough sweep of the system has been completed for virus. It is also worth assessing the physical security of the system - who has access & with what privileges.
To access Songs from the cloud, you would have to manually delete the Song from the library or open an empty library - so even when accessing content, iTunes Match provides no local deletion capability.

I have a new email address. Changed this on my itunes account. On iPhone deleted old icloud account and created new with new email. I have set find my phone to on. When I download music it no longer goes to icloud an does not show up on my iphone.

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

Since upgrading to the newest version of ios 8, I can no longer share my photos on facebook. I have tried going to setting-photos, but the facebook app does not show up for me to change the settings. Any suggestions?

when you opened the shared library with the newer version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11) you were given a warning that your library would be converted and could not be used by older versions - you clicked ok to go ahead - there is no updo available - either upgrade to iphoto '11 of the MBP or load your backup of the iPhoto '09 library on it - older versiopns of i{Photo can not read newer libraries

HT204053 my mac is updated but icloud is not showing up in my system preferences...

my mac is updated but icloud is not showing up in my system preferences, only MobileMe which looks like it charges a fee. Are icloud and mobileme the same? i thought they were different. if they are different why can't i see icloud on my mac?

Your Mac is 3 versions of OS X out of date, current release is 10.9.1, minimum required for Lion is 10.7.4, you have 10.6.8.
Download 10.9.1 (Mavericks) from the App Store

how do i recover my purchased movies on itunes. the icloud does not show them and i have contacted apple twice before about this issue

Not all movies qualify for download on demand from iTunes in the Cloud, the rights may be reserved by the content provider and can vary by region. What response have you had from iTunes Store support?
If you have still have the computer they were on it might be possible to extract the hard drive, mount it in an external drive bay and recover the content from it.
