TS4036 My icloud keeps saying incomplete when i try to back up

My iphone4  refuses to back up on icloud it keeps saying incomplete

This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your phone that is preventing the backup.  To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again.
If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>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 it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup 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.

    Anything is possible.
    it could be off or not connected to wi-fi. 
    It could have been found and restored.
    In any of these cases you will not be able to find it.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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.

  • Photosmart 5510d printer keeps saying "busy" when i try to print something but nothing prints.

    I just bought a HP Photosmart 5510d printer and installed it on my Mac to work wirelessly.  It seems to be working when I do a test print but when I try to print a document, the printer says "busy" and doesn't print at all.  Any advice?  Thanks!

    What verion of Mac are you using (10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7)?
    How are your trying to print (wired, wireless, from mobile device)?
    Thanks!

  • Updating my Iphone 4 then it said error 1604 and now keeps saying that when i try to restore it

    is there anything i can do or do i have to take it to apple?

    I had exactly the same problem. It happened today after I upgraded to Lion and the latest version of iTunes.
    Then I did some search on the net and got a solution and was able to restore.
    What you need to do is, connect your iphone to a different USB port on your system, make sure it isn't connected through a USB hub, only connect directly. If that doesn't work change the USB cable you are using and try again.
    Good luck.

  • Why does the cloud keeps clicking off when i try to back it up ( iphone 5)

    I am having trouble backing up to the cloud. I have called Apple support and they tried to help. I turned most apps off, did a reset of wifi, tried doing it by plugging into wall, but it kicks off. Any other suggestions?

    Try deleting your last backup and try backing up again.  If that fails, You may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>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 it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup 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 offending app and exclude it from your backup.  If it's the camera roll that's the problem, import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and delete them.  If you want some of them on your phone again, put them in a folder and sync them back to your phone by selecting the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  Also see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3992.

  • HT4859 My iPhone 4 says I have 4.9 GB of my free 5 GB iCloud storage available. Yet when I try to back up to iCloud I get the message that his iPhone cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available. What am I doing wrong??

    My iPhone 4 says I have 4.9 GB of my free 5 GB iCloud storage available, but when I try to back up the phone to iCloud I get the message that I do not have enough storage to back up this device. What am I doing wrong??

    Import them to your computer as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your iCloud backup by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your phone under Backups, then turn Camera Roll to Off under Backup Options.
    Also check Settings>General>Usage to see how much availble space is on your phone.  If you have to delete apps in order to take photos, you may be out of space on your phone.  If so, you need to delete something in order to create more space.

  • I got a message saying this ipad cannot be backed up because there is not enough icloud storage available but when i try to close it it didnt gone looks like it got hang

    i got a message saying this ipad cannot be backed up because there  is not enough icloud storage available but when i try to close it it didnt close its looks like get hang up

    Try this now.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    I am having problems with the InDesign it won't download it keeps saying extract when its about 30% then it says failed. How can i get it to download all the way?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • When I try to restore from my iCloud they say there are a problem of back up data so what can I do ?

    When I try to restore from my iCloud they say there are a problem of back up data so what can I do ?

    Unfortunately, nothing.  If there is a problem with the backup you won't be able to use it.  You'll have to restor a backup from your computer using iTunes, if you have one.

    I wouls also like to know how to download pics off of my ipod 5th generation onto my PC computer through icloud or any other way.

    It sounds like you are trying to create a new icloud account, not just logging into an existing account.  When you type in your Apple ID and get that error, it's because you are trying to create an account using the same ID that is already being used in another account.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen.  If you are logged in, press the Delete button, then try logging in with the existing ID.
    As for pics, the most secure way is to connect ipod to PC with USB and look at the Photos tab for your device in iTunes.  Using Photo Stream is another way, but it doesn't always work, depending on conditions.
