I have an ipad air 2 which i purchased on 04/05/16 and set up iCloud on both ipad and mac pro and all worked well.
Today i used the ipad in the field and have no back up on the MP. So, i am wondering if the time of day matters "a lot of usage by others during the day"
I have the ipad connected to power and the back up does not occur.
thanks for your help
Not sure what you are asking. An iPad with iCloud Backup enabled backs up to iCloud about once a day when on power and on wifi. The iCloud backup does not show up on a Mac. To backup to a Mac you would have to connect the iPad to the computer and use iTunes.
Are you referring to iCloud Photo Library by any chance?
I used the wrong terminology. When I am in the field i want to use my ipad to input data to mainly Numbers and have this stored in iCloud and then at the end of the day at home i can view on my mac. Then if i make changes to data at home that change will appear in my spreadsheet on the iPad. Am i on the right track here.
thanks
i just looked at my spreadsheet on the mac and my data points from the ipad are now in the ss on the mac. so at this all is working, but i guess it just takes time
Ah, yes.... Continuity and Handoff. Glad that it is working well now. Just in case....
Use Continuity to connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac - Apple Support
Ipad is not backing up to my MAC PRO today.
