ICloud or iTunes iPhone backup?

What is not saved in iCloud in iTunes? Get the new iPhone and the need to decide what back up.

I feel that this article does a good job in comparing the two.

  • SE ICloud and Itunes-Iphone

    My Iphone SE does not allow me to accept the new terms of iCloud does not give me an option. It appers a windows that give me the options to see the conditions, but as I select take me to ICloud settings and there is nothing about the conditions.

    Also as I connect my Iphone to Itunes, it says that I can't use it because I need the latest version of ITunes. And I did!

    iOS9 on a mobile device requires iTunes 12.3 or higher, which in turn requires a computer running OSX 10.8.5 or higher.  Update of the system only checks the updates for the current version of the system you run, but that itself can be updated.  It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the system requirements. Find your computer on the web site of http://www.everymac.com model and near the bottom of the specification of the system section, he will tell what versions of the operating system, it is able to run. If you can not run a newer system, you will not be able to sync this phone to your current computer. If she can run 10.8.5 or higher, you can either buy a download for Apple OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion code online, or you can try to install the free El Capitan OSX 10.11.  El Capitan can run slower on older machines and require the additional purchase of RAM.  Making a big jump in versions of system is also more likely to affect the old software.

  • Should I iPhone backup to iCloud?

    Hello

    Have an iPhone 4S with IOS to date that has not been saved to iCloud for more than a month. I backed him up for MacBook, but whenever I have connected, connected to WiFi and try to backup, it gets 80% done and then says: «can't save now»  I tried the suggestion to remove the old iPhone backup from the clouds, but it can not be deleted at this time. (Backup of what we call takes place 0, so not much of a backup to delete).

    Have a new iPhone 6s, so I'll be able to use it from my backup computer, or what I need to see this thru backup?

    Thank you.

    If you back up in iTunes, then use your iTunes backup to restore.

  • I have two iPhones (6 & 7), with an Apple ID. Can I have two separate iCloud of each phone backups?

    My question is perhaps a bit 'wordy '. I have a phone work and personal telephone, so to put it simply, I would use an Apple ID to ensure all the contacts and emails remain aligned. The phones are not the same, for example, need a social media applications, etc., as where my work phone didn't. Is it possible to have both work and personal supported until an iCloud account? Or backup the latest will replace the last phone to save?

    Thanks for your help!

    You can have backups for your iPhone iPhone 6and 7.

    You will see separate backups in virtue:

    Settings > iCloud > storage > storage management.

    See "BACKUPS".

  • iCloud iPhone backup

    Hello

    I use an iPhone 6s 128 GB gold. I recently saw my iPhone Backup is great 17 GB, and I started to ask me, whence these 17 GB come, given that iCloud is not backup Apps, Podcasts, music, and other media. The research that I did just confused me even more. ICloud data stores of the App does not add up to 17 GB (by far).

    And what else confused me, was that there are apps, contain way more data, they seem to have on backup, for example my app dictionary dict.cc , which contains the value of 250 MB of data is only 15 MB back up.

    The same problem with my Google Maps app, which stores a large map.

    Can someone help me and clarify things? Thank you very much!

    My apologies if you have already read this - data such as contacts that are already stored are not saved

  • Restoring old iPhone backup ITunes

    I backed up my wife on iTunes iPhone before getting a new iPhone.  When I went to restore the backup on the new iPhone, iTunes somehow made a backup of the new iPhone. When I go into iTunes and do a "restore from backup" the version available is the backup of the new iPhone, previous iPhone away from my wife.  Obviously not very useful.

    Now I can go in the ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup directory and see the backup version I want to use.  But I can't seem to download iTunes "Restore from backup" to give the opportunity to select the backup version I want.

    Any ideas on how to access this version would be very appreciated.

    Thank you.

  • ICloud automatically and periodically backup my documents, library iTunes and iPhoto library in the cloud?

    ICloud automatically and periodically backup my documents, library iTunes and iPhoto library in the cloud?  If so, how?  Do I need to do it manually, or is this automatic, like Mozy?

    You mention iPhoto, which means that you may have about the backup of a Mac. iCloud does not back up your Mac, you must use Time Machine (or other backup software) and an external hard drive.

  • Why the iCloud iPhone backup Photo lib is so great?

    Settings-> General-> storage & use-> iCloud iCloud, manage-> backup storage, this iPhone-> watch photo library to use 2.9 GB.

    I have only a few pictures in Photos.

    Settings-> General-> storage & iCloud use-> storage, manage storage-> Photos & camera shows use 1.4 MB.

    What else is included in the backup of the library that makes it so great?

    My config: iPhone 6, 16 MB, IOS 9.2.1

    Settings-> iCloud-> options for Photos:

    iCloud library picture OFF

    My Photo Stream WE

    Upload Photos of burst off the COAST
    iCloud Photo Sharing ON

    I deleted the backup, turned iCloud backup on again., and did a manual backup that seems to have solved the problem. The iPhone backup uses about 100 MB now that is what I expected. I'm still puzzled why he thought he needed 3 GB to save the picture before Lib.

  • 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

  • Old iPhone, backup

    Firstly, for the sake of brevity, I apologize for asking this.  I am relatively new on iMac, but have an old iPhone 4 and 5 that I sell.  (have a 6 currently.)

    There is content, photos and voice Memos, I want to save 4.  How do you find the 'old' content on my iMac?  I only "see" the new 6 content.

    Thank you in advance, community.

  • Tip: Archives iPhone backup in Windows

    iTunes manages normally a rollover backup for each device unless you restore a backup in which case it is archived with the date of restoration and a new backup created rolling. On a Mac, you can get iTunes to duplicate a backup set, but this feature is not copied into iTunes for Windows. With iTunes closed, you can select and copy and paste an existing backup folder in C:\Users\ < user > \AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup, and then give a folder name that ends by - yyyymmdd-hhmmss. When you restart iTunes extra backup set will be listed under Edit > Preferences > devices even though it will be the same as the original he was cloned from. Once you refresh the active backup, it should be possible to tell who is who, since timestamps.

    Very smart, thank you. I have bookmarked this post. I didn't know how to archive backups in iTunes for Windows that you are using an external drive. I checked my MBP (10.11.5) and of course, there is a drop-down list in iTunes > > > devices that allows archiving. No option on my iTunes W10 (12.4.1). Is Apple iTunes "infantilization down" for Windows?

    Can you tell me how you renamed the folder cloned game? Under backup, I have two folders, one for my iPhone and one for my iPad. Should I letting them copy except as existing names by adding the time stamp at the end of the alphanumeric string long? Like 6d473d7c6... 20160709? Is that what you mean?

    Probably you already know, but Windows 10 you can go directly in the folder (normally hidden) homelessness by typing %APPDATA%\microsoft\windows\sendto in Cortana. In Windows 7 I had to change the "View" to view system files / hidden.
