How to use iTunes (and a cable) to Backup my iPhone to iCloud -- to iCloud and not "to my Computer"
Hi everyone,
I know that using iTunes, I can backup my iPhone "to" my computer or/and I can sync the contents of my iPhone and iTunes. But I neither want to back up to my computer nor mess around with sync'ing at all (I'm wary of potentially overwriting when all I need to do is a "plain backup to iCloud").
Please -- if there is a way -- how on earth can I achieve this? I mean, how can I back up my iPhone to iCloud, using iTunes...given that I don't want to sync anything and I don't want to backup the phone to my computer? In case you are wondering, I know that directly backing up to iCloud -- automatically/periodically or "Back up now" -- is straightforward when done from the iCloud Backup function on the iPhone, but my phone appears to have an issue that's not allowing me do this by simply sliding ON that function, yet I have ample space on both my device and my purchased iCloud subscription. So, I'm left with having to do this via iTunes/cord. I just want to do it without downloading anything to my MacBook and without syncing anything.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Double-O.
