new iphone 14 pro "cannot restore backup" I'm trying to set up my new iphone 14 and after about an hour of "estimating time remaining" the new device told me it "cannot restore backup." Now the new device has backed itself up to icloud and the backup for the old device is sitting there alongside it, and I can't sort out how to get my old phone's data onto my new phone. Any tips or articles about this that are accurate and up to date? I keep finding help articles that are 6 years old and describe interfaces that no longer exist.

Restoring iPhone when no backup is available? I recently had my iPhone stolen and I just got a new one. I tried restoring from iCloud but I get the message "no backups available". However, when I sign into icloud.com, everything is there (photos, contacts, notes, etc). A lot of this stuff is also available to me on my mac. I feel like there has to be a way to get this onto my new phone but I'm not sure how. Any advice?

Alternatively If you have an iCloud backup or a backup made from your computer....
