Changing iCloud to another online storage ?

OU812 · 2013-09-19 17:35:58

I've been using iCloud for about two years now, costs about €20 a year for the extra space needed between the iPad, imac & iPhone (spot the fanboy). But I was wondering. With so many free online storage places now & me with 200GB of copy.com burning a hole in my pocket, is there any way to change the backup to go there…

No, you can only backup to iCloud. But you should be able to manage what gets backed up to ensure you don't go over 5/20GB. I have four devices linked to my iCloud account: two Macs, an iPhone and an iPad, plus an old iPhone which I never deleted, and I'm only using 2.5 GB.

I have an Ipad and Iphone, I created another apple ID and use it to back-up the 2nd device so each device backs up to their own icloud storage.

I think apple should allocate space per device not per account.
