iOS 9.2 iCloud backup still not fixed!!!

Hi Mamanerd, that was a great report. I don't know if you read my report that I posted about a week ago, but I got my icloud back ups working. I might have got lucky though, but basically I was fighting and trying to recover my notes all day and restored my phone a few times, ended up saving my notes into word on my iPhone, leaving all my iPhone notes empty, and and iCloud backup started working. I haven't tried restoring from my iCloud back up yet. Maybe I'll try to restore to my old iPhone 4s to see if the back up is actually there. Through it all though I have to say that backing up to my home computer is what saved me, I hope everybody else knows to do that.

yes, I read your report, and that's what prompted me to post..... I just wish my backups to either my mac or my pc worked. Back last May, I also had heard that a notes database could be corrupted, and I had also removed them all to another repository, but even the upgrade to a newer OS with a totally rewritten Notes structure did not resolve the problem.

I'm really glad you're working again, and yes, do try to restore to another device. That's where I found my occasional icloud backup was not really functional as I'd hoped. What's weird is that I'd get complacent thinking "ah that last thing solved it" after I checked and it appeared working after resetting my phone as "new"..... and then realized that no backup had actually occurred successfully, and no error report that "no backup for x days" was occurring either.

Cheers!

Apple, please help!

Reiterating what others have said - weeks and months without a backup is awful.

If we could just see some logs of where this fails. I've tried everything that's been recommended with no joy.

Please help.

I am still having the same problem, and have tried everything under the sun to get it to work. I also pay the additional amount for iCloud space.

Hey,

I have been using iCloud back for a while for multiple devices.

This week I was planing on adding another line to my account (Need for work). Since I have multiple old iPhones from the year's past I was going total one of them. I fully wiped the phone and when I tried to add the device to my iCloud account (200GB) (have 128GB available) And tried to set it up and do a back up to iCloud I noticed the error "The Last Backup Could not be completed" I was shocked. I don't have any backup's for their specific phone. I tired many different things. It never made any backup's I can only see this device on this phone and not another's. Can't delete a backup for this phone since none are there.

Multiple full Restores. Erase all Network.

I do have another iCloud which I tried and that DID WORK!! I was shocked I thought it had to do maybe with the phone or maybe even iCloud was down.

All my other devices seems to work with my old account and able to manually do a iCloud back.

I defiantly think there is something wrong with that specific iCloud account. If it keeps track of Id's or something and not allowing doubling. Not fully deleting the info. needed.

When I upgrade my phones I do restores so I thought maybe there was something odd going on with keeping the data.

I deleted the iCloud backup of my current iPhone and now when I try to start the backups again I am getting the same error's.

So I think there is an issue with the accounts and not the os since I can backup fine to a different iCloud. But the specific iCloud is't getting fully deleted from apple servers and now causing these issues and won't duplicate.

But my icloud backup is intermittent

It is not an iOS issue.

It an ACCOUNT ISSUE.

If you make / use a different iCloud account it will work Great.

Have an case with apple engineers and they are looking into.

Who know if they will figure it out but it's an huge iCloud issue and can re-create on any account.

in your case, I'm sure it is an account problem. In my case, changing icloud accounts did not help.

Hi ,

Yesterday the iCloud tool on my Windows gave some notification that it was full.

I deleted the backup via the tool.

Opened my iphone and wanted to do an icloud backup again.

For some reason the iCloud backup is "Off" . If I start it again is says "iCloud backup failed" "There was a problem enabling iCloud backup.

If I enable iCloud backup via iTunes. And then run backup it says "the last backup cannot be completed".

The things I tried:

-soft reset

-logout of icloud on iPhone and relogin

-reset network settings

Nothing helps...

I am in the same boat. No back up at all. I kept getting the message not enough storage (I had plenty, photos turned off) I bought more storage today, and still won't back up. So I came here to try and figure out a solution (I'm super busy and don't have time for this crap). It looks like no solution! Come on Apple!!! You are screwing up big time!!! Since the last update, a lot of my notes are missing, and my music is a mess!! I just my old Apple back!!! Get with the program!! I'm seriously thinking about selling my Apple stock!!! Get back to keeping it simple Apple, you are getting way too complicated and have taken your eye off the ball. Most people don't have time messing around with your mistakes!!

iOS 9.2.1 which came out today did not fix our issue.

HI, I've got the same issue that iCloud doesn't backup even when running it manually. I've tried all the things possible even setting up my iPhone as a new one it still refuses to backup. "The last backup could not be completed." Will try update iOS as above but doesn't seem like it'll work from others comments. For now have to backup on itunes.

Hello,

i have the same issue here. Come on Apple and fix this !

As reported earlier, my problem was no iCloud backups being run on my iPhone 5 and iPad for several weeks. Today (1-19-2016) I upgraded the iPhone to iOS 9.2.1. After the upgrade finished, I noticed that a successful iCloud backup completed on both the iPhone and iPad on 1-16-2016. Have not upgraded the iPad to 9.2.1 yet. I am not aware of anything I did that would have any impact on restarting of iCloud backups. I had been waiting for the next iOS release before looking at my problem again. I found the option for Back Up Now and am not sure if I was looking for it in the right place previously.
