My iPhone 6s is taking too long to backup?
I was trying to back it up because i was switching to a 6s plus and giving it to my daughter. But it would move really slow and keep increasing the time. I turned it off and on many times but it wouldn t change. It has never been backed up before
Just wait it takes a long time, a LONG time
1. Check the Internet connection speed.
2. Restart your phone.
3. Update the phone to the latest version of iOS (iOS 9.1).
3. Reset your network settings.

An initial back up of a lot of data will take a very long time. If it's more than a few GB and you have a typically slow upload speed it can quite literally take days or even longer.
After that further updates are far faster and typically take mere minutes as all that then gets backed up is the data which has changed since the last back up.
The first backup can take a very long time if you have a lot of stuff on the phone.

- Other on iphone taking up too much space? Recently, my iphone 4s was saying that apps were taking up like 7gb of my storage even though the amount each app was saying didn't add up to 7 gb. I found out it was pinterest, and deleted it. Then, all of the sudden, "other" jumps up and is taking up all the storage on my phone. Is there a way to fix this without restoring my iphone?
