Need the iphone backup completed two backups previous to the one it lists as available.

Need the iphone backup completed two backups previous to the one it lists as available. My phone initiated a backup of incomplete data and now it's not showing the backup I need when I restore my phone. I'm missing so much information. Help!!!

Only the most recent computer backup can be restored, unless you archived an older backup before making a new one, or the older backup was made with a different version of iOS. The ability to archive is only available on Macs.


iCloud keeps the 2 most recent backups.
