No other choice - Everyone is hammering the servers right now. Maybe wait a few days?

Hi

Are you downloading your icloud back up onto your iphone 6

It shouldn't obviously take that long or it never has for me.

I know people were having issues if they upgraded from icloud to iCloud Drive.

Try rebooting the phone via holding the sleep/wake button and home button until the apple logo appears and let go.

Then try again

My Iphone 5 has ios 7.1.2. Obviously my iPhone 6 has ios 8. I'm guessing it's cos everyone with an iPhone today is restoring from their old iPhones but that's crazy
