It says there’s not enough room. I asked this once before and people just sent me links and I got nowhere.. I guess I’m slow. I’ve minimized it. Just want my contacts backup pretty much.. 102 kilobytes look at the pic and tell me what I’m doin wrong
Your next backup is estimated to be at 56.8MB. Do not delete the original backup. Let the iPhone create a new backup and it will overwrite the previous backup. Check the backup size after the new backup has been completed.

Thank you for the screenshot.
Just select Contacts, and all will be uploaded just fine.
Ok ya that’s the part I think I understand, but if it showed me last night like I showed you in the pic up there that it was setup to backup only 102 kilobytes.. so why is the backup I find today 2.2 gigs?.. and I will need to delete it to do another one right? Maybe?! Also thank you so much.. also here’s a pic of the screen that shows what’s next
Good thing that we have confirmed that iCloud backups are happening. The size is not “Huge” at all. It’s only 2.2 GB. To determine what exactly is being backed up on iCloud, open Settings ➡️ Apple ID (Your Name at Top) ➡️ iCloud ➡️ Manage Storage: Here you will see a list of items that are being backed up to iCloud and, more importantly, you will the backup file size as well.

Ok thank you! I was hoping that was the case but from the problems I was having seemed like it wasn’t doing that before it stopped all together. But good to know. Cuz I was deleting them to make space so maybe that caused the problem in the first place. Idk, but thanks for the help Beverly Hills cop.. I’m an 80’s kid ;)
Ok I went to grab the screen shot for you and all the sudden for the first time in months it’s backed up. Musta done it last night plugged in.. but here’s that screen anyway
But look at the size of the backup it’s huge and I must not be understanding something
Tap on iCloud Backup and what do you see on that screen?

You are welcome. Glad this is resolved and hopefully you will see better results. Haha! BHC and the 80s Kid!!

Why can’t I back up my iPhone?
