    Why is the iPhone 6 Restore from Backup taking FOREVER?

    Re: iPhone 6 Restore from Backup taking FOREVER qgnkelt - Yes, I know I can do it that way, but I my last backup was 12 days ago from the cloud. If I back up from my iPhone now it will have just what I've downloaded now. If I backup from my old iPhone 5s it is 12 days old. See my dilemma?

    Images not displaying in Messages conversations
