Click on the ‘File’ menu and then select 'Back
up’ from the Devices option.

To check that the backup process was complete,

iCloud
§
To manually backup the data using this option,
access the ‘Settings’ option and then click on ‘iCloud’ and then ‘Storage and
Backup’.

If you have already opted for the automatic
backup option by enabling ‘Backup on your iPhone’, iCloud will continue to do
it provided your screen is locked, you are connected to steady power supply,
and you have a good WI-FI Internet connection.

mentioned:
iTunes

Connect your iPhone to the computer and then
select the File menu.

Go to ‘Devices’ and then click on the Restore
from Back up option.
iCloud
§
You will have to delete all data from a device
to be able to restore the data from iCloud. To do it, go to ‘Settings’, then
the ‘General’ tab and then select the ‘Reset’ option to ‘Erase all Content and
Settings’.

Follow this by using the ‘Set up your device’ option
in the Setup Assistant and thereby signing in to iCloud to complete the
restoration process.
While you are attempting to restore
your data from iCloud, remember that the WI FI connection should be ‘On’ and
that your iPhone shouldn’t run low on battery during the process. Also, the
‘Restore from iCloud’ option should be selected and you should furnish the
correct passwords at the entry points to successfully complete the task.
