Q: My Icloud back up shows huge amount of data stored from back up yet listed as incomplete. Unable to access data. Is data lost

My ICloud backup shows a huge amount of data stored, yet it is listed as incomplete backup. I am unable to access the backed up data. Is the data lost?

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    Unfortunately, if an iCloud backup is incomplete you can't access any of the data in it.  The only way to access anything in the backup is to restore the entire backup, which can't be done if it is incomplete.
