Q: Broke my iPhone and got an iPad. Want access my iCloud files through my account.

I want to see my old photos videos ect. that I uploaded when I had an iPhone

I switched over to an android for my cellular device but want the best of both worlds

by still using iTunes for music movies and iCloud.

How do I access my backup files?

iPad, iOS 7.1.1

    Hi

     

    If you have backed up using itunes for your old iphone then you should just be able to restore from a back up straight to your itunes steps below:

    Note that both devices must be running the same iOS version to restore from back up

     

    Hope this helps
