Hi. I brought a new iphone 5 and I wanted to restore it to one of my previous iclouds but it's not letting me - the icloud backup is a iphone 5 6.1 ios and my current is iphone 6.0.1 - please advise what i should do...

Hi ldyazch,

You will need to set it up as a new phone, not from a backup, first. Then, after setup is complete, go to Settings > General > Software Update. Make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi and have at least 50% battery power. After then update downloads and installs, you can go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.

This will let you go through the setup again, and this time you can choose your backup.
