How long does it take to back up my iphone. It seems to be taking forever?

Depends on the speed of the computer or the internet connection to iCloud. Of course the amount of data being backed up on a slow connection (wired or wireless) will take a longer time that less data needing to be backed up.

This is why it is always best to backup at least once a week, that way the phone/computer, does not need to start from the day the phone was first used, to back things up, a year later for the first time.

  • WHY IS MY IPHONE TAKING FOREVER? I have the iphone 4 and its literally taking forever to send a text, the bar goes almost all the way… Then nothing and this phone is brand new
  • Why is my iPhone taking forever to sync? This is all I see when I sync. I just installed iTunes and this is my first time syncing to this computer. I just upgraded to iOS 7 today Also, my iPhone doesn't have the "Syncing please don't remove" like it does on my other computer. Mark, I find your lack of knowledge disturbing. I saw your avatar though and I was surprised. Usually Americans are smart *sarcasm*
  • Why is my iPhone taking forever to send text messages? I have an iPhone 4 and I don't know why just all of a sudden it's taking forever to send messages! My phone keeps saying storage almost full so I don't know if that's a problem but I deleted a lot of my messages and it didn't do anything but can someone help me and find a solution? What can I do to make it stop, thank you
  • Why is my iPhone 5s taking forever to find the new update for iOS 8? My phone is connected to Wi-Fi, and it's plugged in. It keeps saying, "Checking for update…" with the loading thing next to it. It's been like this for the last 20 mins. It's really getting annoying…
