TS4108 I have an iphone 5 and an Ipad but DO NOT have an apple computer so if I back-up my iphone to icloud prior to going to a Genius Bar as they tell you to can I then reclaim my data from icloud if necessary.?

I have an iphone and an ipad.  I DO NOT have an Apple Mac (I have a Dell laptop).  I have an appointment with a Genius Bar.  They tell you to back up your data to icloud before you come in.  If my data is lost will I be able to retrieve it without an Apple Mac????    Oh and how do I check what operating system I'm using???? Sorry I'm a novice regarding this.

You can back up your device, either to iCloud or to your computer using iTunes, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766.  If you need to know what version of iOS you are using, go to Settings>General>About and read the number across from Version.
