I can not sync my icloud with my iphone 5, but it works perfect with my ipad 3. The message says iCloud back up failed. There was a problem enabling icloud back up .
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks
iPhone 5, iOS 6
If the message is "Backup not successful": I had the same problem.
My solution was to turn off some apps (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap my device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options) and try a manual backup. If it didn't work, turn off a few more apps and try a backup. Keep doing that until the backup works. Then try adding in some of the last batch of apps that were previously turned off - the objective is to find the app that causes the backup to fail. For me, I suspect that the one app I found had a bad data file that, when included in the backup, caused the backup to quit.
This can be a long process if you have a lot of apps that you originally turned on for backups.

Thank you. I will give this a try.
