RE: Question about backup iPhone

2018-11-10 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
You can do it the way Anna described or you can connect your iPhone to iTunes 
and simply activate the restore button, if the backup was made with iTunes then 
the software knows where it is.
Anyhow, it's highly unlikely Apple will mess up your phone, you can always ask 
the Apple person you deal with to make sure an iCloud backup was done just 
before and make sure that before you leave the Apple Store all is what it 
should be as they can help you in case something does in fact go wrong which is 
unlikely.

Hi,

The way you would restore from a backup is to erase everything on your phone by 
going to Settings/General/Reset/Erase all content and Settings. As part of 
restoring your phone afterward, you would have the choice of restoring from an 
iCloud or an iTunes backup.

If you are backing up to iTunes, be sure to do an encrypted backup. If you use 
iCloud, turn on iCloud Keychain, which will save all your passwords, and then 
back up. Using either of these types of backup will restore the most 
information if you need to use your backup.

Best,
Anna

iTunes backups on a Windows 10 computer are in c:\users\Your User 
Name\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backups
However, that doesn't really matter since you can't do anything with them. For 
example, when I go there I see a folder called 
65937a14cc05b8b63f632a0e0912dc48fccc93cc and when I open it there are 260 items 
in that folder, most of them more subfolders and while there is I believe 
software available which you can use to view or extract specific information 
from an iTunes backup I believe most of these applications are inaccessible.
If you want to delete a backup you can open iTunes, go to Edit > Preferences > 
Device Tab and you can see your backupds here and delete any you don't want or 
need any more.
Making an iTunes backup is OK, better though if you encrypt it, e.g. check the 
checkbox for that and enter then re-enter a password and make sure you don't 
forget it. Encrypted backups include more information such as passwords.
It is still a good idea also to backup to iCloud as an iCloud backup nowadays 
is almost as good as an encrypted iTunes backup.

If you tab through the options in iTunes there is one spot where it will tell

Also, you could additionally do an iCloud backup in Settings > Your Account (at

RE: Question about backup iPhone

2018-11-09 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
iTunes backups on a Windows 10 computer are in c:\users\Your User 
Name\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backups
However, that doesn't really matter since you can't do anything with them. For 
example, when I go there I see a folder called 
65937a14cc05b8b63f632a0e0912dc48fccc93cc and when I open it there are 260 items 
in that folder, most of them more subfolders and while there is I believe 
software available which you can use to view or extract specific information 
from an iTunes backup I believe most of these applications are inaccessible.
If you want to delete a backup you can open iTunes, go to Edit > Preferences > 
Device Tab and you can see your backupds here and delete any you don't want or 
need any more.
Making an iTunes backup is OK, better though if you encrypt it, e.g. check the 
checkbox for that and enter then re-enter a password and make sure you don't 
forget it. Encrypted backups include more information such as passwords.
It is still a good idea also to backup to iCloud as an iCloud backup nowadays 
is almost as good as an encrypted iTunes backup.

Regards,
Sieghard

If you tab through the options in iTunes there is one spot where it will tell 
you when the last backup was done, i.e. it will give you the date and time.
Also, you could additionally do an iCloud backup in Settings > Your Account (at 
the very top)
