Hi pam645,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! For this issue, we would recommend the steps in the article below that can help:


If you can't back up to iCloud


If a message says that your last backup couldn't be completed
1. In iOS or iPadOS, go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Check that you're connected to Wi-Fi. 
2. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update. Download and install any available updates for your device. 
3. Try to back up on another Wi-Fi network.
4. Check to make sure that you have enough iCloud storage for the backup
5. If you still need help, contact Apple Support.


Hope this helps!

Have a great day.
