I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace and roughly every hour, I receive a notification that a backup attempt was failed.

Could this be due to the fact that I am not connected to the Internet? How can I stop this?

EDIT: i have on purpose turn off, wifi, 3g, unsyc, background, data and still the message appear! How can i turn down this option?

Thanks in advance

But what backup is this? Is it a schedule backup from Titanium Backup? Is this your contacts syncronizing with Verizon? You fail to mention any specifics of phone, carrier, app, etc. More info is needed for us to help you. – Stephen Schrauger Nov 28 '12 at 17:06

Obviously no one appears to know exactly what you're talking about. Can you provide a screen shot? – Al Everett Dec 7 '12 at 17:34

If you are running on Android 4.x : Go to Settings -> Backup & reset -> Turn off "Back up my data"

If you are running on Android 2.x : Go to Settings -> Accounts & sync -> select your account and turn off backup and sync
