To let i. Cloud automatically back up your device each day, here’s what you need to do:
Make sure that i. Cloud Backup is turned on in Settings > [your name] > i. Cloud > i. Cloud Backup Connect your device to a power source. Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network. Make sure that your device’s screen is locked. Check that you have enough available space in i. Cloud for the backup.
Moreover, how do I know when icloud backup is finished?
Go to Settings>i, cloud>i Cloud Backup, to see when the last backup was created. If the backup is still in progress, you will see the blue progress bar and the message that the i. Pad is backing up to i. Cloud in that screen. I do not use i. Cloud for my primary backups.
, in i OS 8 or later, check the progress of the transfer on your device under Settings > i. Cloud > Backup. If the restore process is underway, the i. Cloud Backup setting is dimmed.
Can’t find iCloud backup?
, locate i Cloud Backups Locate backups of your i, phone, i Pad, and i. Pod touch – Locate and manage i. OS backups stored in i. Cloud Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences., click i, and cloud.
This of course begs the inquiry “Why is my iCloud backup taking so long?”
If the restore process is underway, the i. Cloud Backup setting is dimmed. Make sure that your device is connected to the Internet with reliable Wi-Fi. Make sure that your device is plugged in to a power outlet. Check the Apple progress bar that appears while transferring a backup.
How long does an iCloud backup restore take to complete?
