Undo WhatsApp back up on iCloud.

I backed up my Whatsapp history to icloud but I've realised it has used too much of my storage. Can I delete the whatsapp backup from icloud? When I go on mange storage and delete Whatsapp, the message say it'll remove whatsapp from ALL my devices. Can someone help me? I want to free up space on my icloud by deleting whatsapp backup only.
Thank you.

What I said was "your space will not be available again until your phone backs up a few (at least three times)" since icloud is set up the way, that it holds up to three backups. So if you charge your phone overnight - three nights from now you will have more space. You can try to force manual backups by clicking "backup now" option in storage and backup area, but you would still have to wait until the earliest backup saved in icloud, will not have your whatsup app.

  • About app (whatsapp) backing up to icloud...

    i haven't backuped to icloud since 8 weeks. when i go to icloud's manage storage on my phone it indiactes that whatsapp has about 60mb of data in the cloud in the 'Documents & Data' section. when i click on my device and see what the next backup would be, it indicates 497 mbs of data for whatsapp!
    inside whatsapp the app's settings indicate that my chats have been backedup just yesterday. so i assume this 497 mbs is totally different from the 60mbs of chat logs. i would like to disable unnecessary backing up of stuff to icloud and start backing up to icloud again. can someone tell me what is this data indicated in next backup size?

  • How to access whatsapp back-up files on icloud

    How do I get access again to my whatsapp conversations backed up on icloud?

    That can be done with Elcomsoft Phone Breaker -- it allows to download all files from iCloud, not only backups. And WhatsApp data is also there (if appropriate setting is enabled in the program, of course).

  • Can't restore whatsapp from my iCloud. Can restore all chat history I've backed up to iCloud.  What can I do?

    I'm trying to restore my whatsApp data from my iCloud and it's not working.
    I deleted the app and reinstalled it. Trying to restore the data but the process seems to be stuck and not completed.
    The chat history is very important to me.
    Pleas help me

    Well, I had the same problem today.  What I did was reboot my iPhone 4 and it worked.  If there's anyone experiencing this issue, try this.
    (if you don't know how to reboot, just hold the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears)

  • Deleting whatsapp conversations history from icloud

    hello, how can i delete whatsapp conversations history from icloud as i backed it up long time ago and now want to delete it

    Hi soumyashree,
    That's fustrating, I've been there before with a stuck iCloud restore, I just had to wait it out in the end. Hours!!
    If you made an iTunes backup before the conversation was deleted you could restore from that.
    If you don't, try to restore from the iCloud backup again. As a last restort, you could try some iCloud restore troubleshooting tips.
    or third party recovery software to help you get your whatsapp chat back. However this may cost money.
    Be sure to look through reviews before you make a decision.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • My iPad screen is stuck on an alert message telling me that I have not backed up to iCloud in 5 weeks. How do I get pass this alert message?

    My iPad screen is stuck on an alert message that is informing me that I have not backed up to iCloud in 5 weeks. How do I get pass this alert message.

    I have been dealing with this problem since upgrading to ios 6.  I have an old ipod touch that is still running ios 5.? that backs up daily with no problem whatsoever.  I have attemped every solution posted on these help boards (i.e. deleting accounts, turning off all apps from back-up, restarting device, changing routers, attempting back-ups through different wifi spots) sometimes one or a combination of these band-aid fixes will work for a day or two, then suddenly the ipad (version 3) will simply stop backing up, and I will spend hours of frustration going through all the tedious fixes.  All the while my old ipod touch running ios 5 backs up daily with no problem whatsoever.  I have called Apple support and they seemed surprised that this is a problem and offer no real solution whatsoever.
    Until Apple gets their head out of the sand on this one, and actually fixes the obvious bug that exists is ios 6 this problem will continue and will not be resolved.

  • HT4859 what if i used the wrong back up from icloud and want to choose another back up after?

    I have just gotten my iphone replaced, and to first start it up it gave me options to rather start as new phone or restore from iCloud.
    I tried iCloud option but it cannot load out my iCloud back up, so the genius told me to just start it as a new phone first and then plug it in to your iTunes.
    but I've been relying on iCloud to back up everything, so I haven't backed up to iTunes since august, now I've lost everything since August.
    I can still see the back up on iCloud Manage and Back up but how do I restore it from there?
    Please help!

    Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage :
    Then, delete the backup.
    After that to save new ones, turn the iCloud Backup ON.

  • I have both my iPhone and iPad backing up via iCloud, but they are not sharing the information between devices ie if I purchase an app on one it does not transfer to the other although the backup is successful via iCloud.

    I have both my iPhone and iPad backing up via iCloud but the data is not being shared between the devices. When I backup it appears to be working as there are no error messages but the data is not shared between each. Any help would be great as this is very frustrating.

    Backing up to icloud is not the same as syncing data between devices.  Go to
    Settings>Store.  Turn on the automatic downloads that you want on that screen.
    Settings>iCloud.  Turn on the features you want to sync between devices.

  • The WiFi on my iPhone 4s will not turn on. I need to back up to iCloud in order to replace the phone. A worker at the Apple Store said that if I connected my phone to the computer, then I could back up to iCloud but it doesn't work!

    Last weekend I went to the Apple store to replace my phone because the WiFi on my phone is nonfunctional. I need to back up to iCloud before I can replace my phone because I have information on there that needs to be saved. The worker at the Apple store said that, since I cannot connect to WiFi, I needed to plug my phone into my computer in order to back up. I went into iTunes and turned iCloud on, but my phone still will not back up to iCloud. So, I need to know exactly how to back up my iPhone to iCloud without WiFi?

    Unfortunately, you can't restore an iCloud backup without using wifi so that isn't an option.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

  • My phone wont let me back up to icloud?

    my phone wont let me back up to icloud, even after purchasing the additional storage i needed. does anyone know why or how i can fix this?

    You need to be on wifi to do a backup.   And you need to be plugged in to power for it to automatically backup each night.
    How much space is it estimating your backup to be?

  • TS3992 Backing up to iCloud doesn't happen automatically

    Hi,
    I had a warning to say that my I-Pod hadn't been backed up to iCloud for 6 weeks. After much effort I discovered how to set up automatic backups to iCloud and, as I expected, automatic backup to iCloud has already been set up. In the settings on my iPod Touch 4th Generation, which is also on the latest ios, iCloud backup is on and, according to the description below it should automatically backup but it's not automatically backing up. I normally access the internet through home or college wireless networks all of which are stored and recognized by my iPod Touch and, I've connected my iPod to my computer several times and it hasn't backed up to iCloud. I'm assuming, given all those conditions, that every time I'm at home and in range of my home wireless networks, provided the iCloud backup option is showing as On, it should backup automatically either any time I'm in a known wireless network and/or when I connect my iPod to my computer. I've just tried to back up again now and it's coming up with the error message "The last backup could not be completed" but the iPod is connecting to the internet now (seconds after telling the backup couldn't be completed) so there's no problem with the settings and no problem with the internet connection so why's it not backing up?
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    From the TS3992 article you attached above:
    To set your iOS device to back up automatically, go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and turn on iCloud Backup. When iCloud Backup is turned on, iCloud automatically backs up your iOS device daily. This daily backup can occur only when the device meets all of these conditions:
    The device is connected to a power source.
    The device is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi.
    The device's screen is locked.

    Did you ever verify the primary email address associated with her iCloud ID?  Apple should have sent a verification email like the one below to the email address that was used to set up the iCloud account.  You need to click the Verify Now link in the email to verify the address. 
    Make sure you are check the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
