Evolution of the iPhone, backup and icloud
Hi all, I'll soon change my iPhone, and I want to back up only certain content such as messages and photos, without applications or settings, put them in the new phone. Also I do not quite understand some option in icloud in my phone.
1. What is the difference between the Safari option in iCloud and the other located in icloud drive? Also, what is the content the other application downloaded from the store sync in icloud drive if the option is enabled? This is something I will never understand
2. If you want to back up my photos and my messages to put in the new iphone, I have to do a full backup using iTunes or icloud, or there is a way to save only the 2 things? Or possibly make a full backup and then restore only photos and messages, but I don't know if there is an option to do so. For the pictures on that I think activate "icloud library" and then re - download on my new iphone, but for messages?
3. now I have ios 9.3.1 on my iPhone 5, I won't be able to restore the backup if the new iphone ios 9.3.2?
Thank you very much!
Matteo
Hello Matteo,.
1 - you don't need to so much backup data of safari at all. If you use your password will be that there anyway, if you're not, having own Safari in a new device could be a good idea to keychain. iCloud drive is another application, you can use it to store any desired data, whereas iCloud parameters in app use their own space, you can see it in settings > general > software & use of iCloud.

2 - when you save, you cannot back up a few apps or elements, you back up your device all or nothing. If you have the space available, use iCloud music library and photo library iCloud, so all your media go. Anyway, there is no harm in doing a full backup locally in your computer using iTunes, you can remove it once you have restored your device and will be likely to recover more quickly.

3. - you will be able to restore your files. Files and OS go separate ways, and if your machine is new, it will prompt you to update as soon as you connect it to your computer, but you will be able to get all your files, photos and films it.
Enjoy your new device!

You can restore the photos of the recently deleted items folder? I have an iCloud back for my iPad that I restored it that would have photos on them but then sync with my current iCloud files. Can I restore the last backup of iCloud?
The backup to iCloud for an iPad does not include items that are already in iCloud, your iCloud stream library and my photos are not included in the backup to iCloud.

I have problems to restart of Yosemite, after power failure during the new backup, and now HD is also blocked.
I tried the holding of 'command-r' and 'option' to see if the problem can be resolved or try any boot from a boot disk, my old backup, USB function start - but after a slow long process it all just stops.
There is software on my HD that I don't want to lose by simply reformatting the computer, because I am now in a different country, far from my house, which is another problem of the Apple Store, to reinstall my OS from Yosemite on the www.

I upgraded to the iPhone 5 and now I can't print on my HP OfficeJet 4500.
Hello
I was wondering why I lost the ability to print after upgrading to the iPhone 5. Worked very well with the iPhone 4 and iOS 5. I had to print via my wireless network so had my Mac on, but never had any problems. Now my phone says that it cannot find all printers.
Thank you
Diana
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions!
I tried another solution - put Printopia on my Mac. Works very well.

On the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus, the screens are 3 x resolution so blurry images. Also, we would like to be able to support the increased screen real estate, but it doesn't seem to be a way to do this in Muse. It fits well the iPhone 5/5 s screen, either, we can make the site zooms in and blurred or zoom back and have a large border around the page, but the resolution not native. Can we have a great phone for larger phones screen size and still support the small screens of the iPhone 5/5 s?
iPhone 6 + is not currently added in preview mode, but its in our list of implementation. Images for Zoom, if you use images high resolution while they shouldn't be blurred.
Thank you

Hello, my name is Alexander, im of the Brazil and I speak very well English. I owned an Iphone 5 purchased in Italy in September 2012 and I used it until today 02/08/16 when I decided to buy a SE 64 GB my iphone because Iphone 5 was a problem that could not be resolved. I used it and noticed the battery was swelling and suddenly the Iphone 5 continues to vibrate in all operations. I took it to the interview and they changed the vibrating motor and the power cable, cable, but does not work. I thought it might be a problem with the motherboard by the blown battery occurried. So I decided to buy a SE 64 GB and when I restored the Iphone 5 in SE, it runs with the same problem. The store give me another a 64 and after the restored backup, the same problem occuried. They had upgraded the operating system, but the only way to solve it was a complete reset of fabric and make a backup of restore contacts and photos through the Icloud
Can someone help me?
There are a few app couldn't stop the iphone vibrates? without all my applications and files, the SE Iphone works fine
I don't know if you want vibration on or off. Anyway, this is the setting you are looking for...

How to remove the iphone backup 5
I don't want to keep iPhone 5 backups. I set myself now iCloud not to backup my iphone when I plug in, but how do I delete an old backup, I created which can be on my computer rather than iCloud? I don't know, actually. I think that my iPhone has been saved just once before. And the backup actually on iCloud and on my computer as it would have been in the past?
Is always a good idea to keep a backup copy
That being said - you can have backups in iCloud and iTunes
The iCloud maximum return can be deleted by - system preferences - iCloud - backup management
What about iTunes - if you're bent on deleting of backup - you can google for where the backup is stored on your computer and delete it

Lost iPod, but has date of the last backup for iCloud
iPod 5th generation, iOS 9.2.
Last, known to have Tuesday dec 22, by car. Could not locate mode lost in 'find my iPhone', says offline.
backup to iCloud says date and time of the last backup performed Wednesday, December 23 at 12:17. What this means he had access to my wireless home network to do? It would be good to know if yes, then it is lost somewhere around the House and not elsewhere in the world!
Thank you
your iPod touch would be in the House because it was connected to the internet
If it was in the world then it will not be able to connect to internet
