What is Airplane mode? Is it data / cellular is turned off? I thought it was data and WiFi, but must not be, from the statement below. Thanks.

I had the same issue on my old 32 GB 3Gs phone. I had purchased all of the additional space that was required and despite following the instructions for backing up the phone, I continued to have the backup process abort. I had turned of blue tooth as others suggested without any luck and followed all of the recommendations Apple had placed on its support page. The problem finally resolved itself when I backed up my phone using airplane mode with the wireless connection activated. One accessibility issue I have encountered during this exercise was that it was impossible to check the status of the backup without unlocking the phone which, I believe, would cause some of my earlier backup attempts to crash. Perhaps Apple could consider showing backup status as it does with song titles as a person is unlocking their phone? THanks for listening.
