iTunes iPhone backup - Page 6

opyr8yr · 10-03-2008, 04:58 AM

I disabled my backups via terminal some time ago. Ever since doing so iTunes never bothered to backup again which is great, however I now need to make a backup, just one, and I can't figure out how. So back to the OP's question if we may, how do you "force" iTunes to make a backup?

I find my iPhone also takes a while now to backup. About 5-10 minutes easy with only a few songs on it and about 5 apps.

Is copytrans a free app?

A backup is made every time you sync your PC (not sure about Macs)....in Vista the backup is located at C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Apple\.... not sure but its somewhere in there (must unhide folders)
