I have just got an upgrade from 4s to 5c so now I'm trying to do a restore from iCloud, it's taking hours and hours, I'm not actually sure if any things happening, I can see my apps, but not all my photos. How do I know if it's actually working?
View 1 RepliesI wiped my iphone 4 clean and did a install from last iCloud backup. The night before last around midnight. It's halfway restored on a 13gb backup. 30+ hours later. It's been on wifi the entire time except one hour last night when I ran to then store. I'm keeping it plugged in to the power outlet too. I've seen it take a while to restore before for approx 1 FB less. It's never been this long. WTHeck is going on? Can I push this process along at all? I tried to delete some apps that are waiting to be redownloaded...and 1 minute later
They were back on the screen... So that's not helpful.
what I can do about this... It's been downloaded my snapfish app for many many hours (they all took a long time..) this one is taking soooo long

I lost my original backup file for my 3GS and I am getting a replacement today. I called the apple store and the mac genius told me to create a backup, I downloaded a fresh copy of itunes to my new laptop, connected the 3GS, on the icon I right clicked "create backup" and the back up started, my phone says, sync in process the little wheel is turning so I know its reading and the meter is moving but its moving very slow, I started this at 6:35am and now it's 9:02am and it's only half way. Is this normal?, does it take this long to create a first backup file? I have a 16Gb but I have 10Gb free, I dont have much in it, just about 1184 pics and some applications.

I switched iphones today with a friend of mine. I made sure that I had backed up everything to my computer AND iCloud before doing the trade. Did it, everything set up fine. Restored through iTunes and then turned on. I still had my email, texts, call logs, contacts and notes. But all my apps and songs are gone. How do i get them back?

I went from an iphone 4s to 5s; backed up from icloud, but after a full 24 hours, it's not complete- is it stuck? Is there something I can do? Should I just wait?

I'm using the default iCloud storage plan. Since this is only 5GB, I don't back up anything but WhatsApp besides contacts, mail and notes. I don't even have Photo Stream enabled. WhatsApp only takes up 1.3 GB, and I regularly delete redundant notes and keep my iCloud inbox completely clean (by forwarding emails to my other accounts), which would mean that my contacts take up around 3GB. This is impossible as I have only 100+ contacts and don't sync them with my Facebook contacts.Â
What's even weirder is that the iCloud usage tab tells me that there is 703 MB available of 5.0 GB on iCloud, but is unable to back up my phone due to needing an extra 3.9 GB of storage.how I could manage my iCloud storage more effectively.

i'm trying to update the operating system on my 9100.it is taking literally hours. is this normal?? it keeps being so slow on "net_rim_bb_maps.cod" and i think the bar has moved a little, but its still showing that same module for at least the past 5, 6 hours. what do i do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if the new iCloud features will allow me to store my photos on the server instead of on my phone. Â
By now, many of us must have an excessive amount of photos on our devices. It would be nice if I could 'archive' or 'keep on server' my photos from 2010 that I rarely access... but still have the ability to download them if I were so inclined. I am using GB upon GB in pictures and have no space for movies and music at this point.Â
Is anything like this possible? what about with iOS 8 and the new iCloud features?Â
I know if I create a stream it gives me the ability to download the whole thing.Â

My wife just bought an LG G3, finally upgrading her LG Optimus T. She was having the same issue on her old phone, which is what prompted her to give the thing a decent burial.
The problem is that she's intermittently receiving texts 12 hours or more after they're sent. She's seldom anywhere that there's no signal & her old phone only recently started exhibiting these symptoms.
Her SIM card was upgraded when she got the new phone & I installed and formatted an older Class 10 32 GB SDHC card from my S4 after I replaced it with a 64 GB card.
my xperia x10 taking 12 hours to charge completely.

What can I do? I don't want to disconnect the phone in case it damages it. The phone itself is actually working, making and receiving calls and all the apps and info are still ok, just terrified to disconnect incase it dies.

The device switch feature "Task in Process 'is going on 3 hours at this point and I'm afraid to stop it and restart it given the warning that the device may become unusable if you disconnect. Should I just disconnect it anyway? Download the latest software and try again? I don't think it should be taking 3 hours to complete this switch!

Is there a way to restore my device to an old iCloud backup? Yesterday I had to restore my device with my iTunes backup and it was months old and I'm afraid that now my iCloud backup is overwritten. Is there a way to choose whick backup I want to restore and say, 2 days ago instead of the latest one?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI purchased a new iPhone 3GS and started using it. I set up iCloud backup, and chose to save all my contacts etc to iCloud.The device was defective, so I had to exchange it. When setting up the new device, it doesn't seem to see the backup I made. It makes me setup a new device. After I setup the new device when I go to iCloud settings, I can see the backup I made earlier, but there is no way to restore it. What should I do? There is no apple store in my country.When I erase the phone and try to set it up it doesn't "see" the backup, and makes me setup a new phone.After setting up the phone it can see the backup (In iCloud settings I can see it), but there is no restore option.When I log into [URL], I can see all the contacts, so it has indeed been backed up. I just don't know how to get it on the phone.

Restoring from iCloud backup: I downloaded iTunes, synched my iPhone 4s, and don't see any email, contacts, calendar items, photos, videos, or text messages. The screen does say the last backup to iCloud was minutes ago, but I have no idea how to check iCloud to make sure all my stuff is there before I restore my iPhone. (I need to restore the iPhone because it's having problems and Apple told me to do that through iTunes.) Apple told me I'd see everything in iTunes and could copy the stuff over once the restore is complete, but I just don't see anything in iTunes.
