Hi,


Thanks foe the information. I was looking for it and couldn't find it. Probably me being the issue however I'm having a battery replaced today and want to get an iCloud backup before having it done. (At an Apple store near by).


Follow-on question:


Should I do a reset of my iPhone (i.e. removing everything off the phone? Will that gain me anything aside from a empty phone?


?
