Hi,
I know this doesn’t really answer your question but, why not just have your
device backed up to iCloud? In my opinion, its so much easier, and convenient
than backing up on your computer. You don’t even have to do anything. If on
Wifi, it will perform a backup every time you charge your
Hi,
I've never used the iCloud backup, but is it not slower than using iTunes on
one's computer or via wifi?

Hi,
I guess it depends. In raw speed/transfer rate I guess. But, I think this is
kind of trivial because an iCloud backup for me only takes less than 2

charging, the convenience factor goes way up. Just set and
Hi,
Oh! just to add, iTunes wireless sync via wifi is much slower than an iCloud
backup for me using wifi or cellular data.

hit in batterylife.

Hi Ricardo,
You can't really compare doing a sync via WiFi and an icloud backup since
iTunes WiFi sync is just that, a sync whereas an iTunes backup is a backup.

cloud? Do I ask it to backup everything or is it safer to use
Hi,
Its pretty simple. The first thing you want to do is on your phone go to
settings/iCloud. Now double tap the storage and backup button. On the next
screen, there will be a checkbox to turn iCloud on. What this does is allow
your device to be backed up automatically when connected to
The one reason that I don't use iCloud to backup my iPhone is that I have apps
on my phone which are no longer in the App Store. And since I cloud checks the
app store and gets the latest version of an app, I think I'll lose apps which
