You are talking about 2 different back ups which only confuses people. Backing up to iTunes via WiFi is not the same thing as backing up to iCloud. I recommend keeping a back up on the computer but if you are going to use iCloud to sync and back up, don’t also use iTunes to sync to also, that will only duplicate information. If you are syncing to iCloud only use that, make a manual back up on the computer by right clicking on the iOS device name under “devices” and selecting back up. This will save plenty of hassles.
