Apple Announces iCloud Backup Reset on September 22nd, iCloud and iOS 5 Launch Nears

As we have already reported that Apple is planning to launch iOS 5 Golden Master release on 23rd September for the operators to customize and test their firmwares before release of final iOS 5. Now the news seems pretty accurate as Apple has recently announced resetting schedule for iCloud Backup on 22nd September. This iCloud Backup is being reset as the access to iCloud was only allowed for the developers and they were working on testing the functionality of iCloud features and now when the product is near to maturity Apple will reset all the Backup data stored by Developers in order to prepare it for general public release. As iCloud is an integrated feature of iOS 5 therefore finalization of all iOS 5 services before Golden Master launch are essential requirement. The reset does not include data from mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, or bookmarks. According to report at Apple Developer boards,

On Thursday, September 22, the iCloud Backup data will be reset. Backing up to iCloud or restoring from an iCloud backup will be unavailable from 9 AM PDT – 5 PM PDT. If you attempt a backup or restore during this time, you will receive an alert that the backup or restore was not successful. After this reset, you will be unable to restore from any backup created prior to September 22. A full backup will happen automatically the next time your device backs up to iCloud.
