January Upgrade - Can you back it up?

If I purchase the January upgrade, is there a way that it can be backed up in case of one of the following scenarios-
1) PC crashes and I have to sync iPod with different PC or I reformat my PC and need to reinstall iTunes and library
2) Something goes wrong with the iPod touch and it has to be replaced
3) If I have to restore my software to the original version and then update at a future time because of some glitch with iTunes.
Thanks to all that answer.

The file is located here:
Mac OS X:
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\
Windows Vista:
C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\
Note: These locations are hidden by default in Windows. You can these locations by choosing "Show hidden files and folder" in the View tab of the Folder Options Control Panel.
Once you have copied the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file to the computer with your home library, make a new folder named Mobile Applications in the correct location, and place the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file there. Open iTunes and sync your iPod touch.

  • HT1766 Can you back up an iPhone if it has already been disconnected?

    Can you back up an iPhone if it has already been disconnected? My daughter thought she had backed it up, but hadn't and she already has her new one turned on. She has thousands of pics and contacts she wants to put on the new one.

    Hey elena68
    You can as long as it still works powers on and can get to the Home Screen. Just follow the steps outline in the article below to get that taken care of.

  • HT201250 How can you back up os 10.5.8?

    I'm wanting to back up my iMac before I add 10.6 on it. All the external back ups require 10.6 & up. So, how can you back it up? My computer already has Time Machine on it.
    Thanks!

    I don't understand why an external drive would require 10.6...the Mac OS X format (HFS extended Journaled) and partition scheme, GUID, have been used since Mac OS X 10.4.  The Time Machine system has been in use since 10.5.  Someone may be giving you some bad information.
    Check the drives offered by OWC, http://www.macsales.com and see what they have.  I have three of their Mercury Elite pro external drives, 2 TB each, and they are great drives.  OWC has on-line and telephone help so can answer any questions about compatibility of the drive you are interested in.
    An external drive can be partitioned into a partition for Time Machine to use for backup, or another backup procedure, and a work space partition.  I setup my drives, for three different computers, to have a backup partition and a Carbon Copy Cloner bootable partition and a storage partition.  That way there is a good backup of the system, and a bootable copy of the system so if anything goes wrong I can simply boot (restart holding the Opt key then select that partition for startup) into a working version of the operating system.

    Easy way, CLONE IT to another HD
    HD cloning software options:
    1. SuperDuper HD cloning software APP (free)
    2. Carbon Copy Cloner APP (will copy the recovery partition as well)
    3. Disk utility HD bootable clone.

    BAD IDEA
    You want one backup (ie Time machine) and one (or more) data archive of just all your raw files (drag and drop, or cloned etc.)

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, you can back up multiple devices but may need to purchase more iCloud space.

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I attempted to upgrade from 2.0 version ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_8; en-us) AppleWebKit/533.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/533.16

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X
    If you have Mac OS X 10.5 or newer then do this:
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
    Install the new version that you have downloaded.

  • Can you back up an iPod without putting in the passcode?

    I dropped my iPod and now i can't control the screen. I want to back it up to my computer, but it says there's a passcode and I need to enter it before I can back it up. One problem, I can't control the screen. Can you back it up without the passcode, or am i screwed?

    No, you can't. But you can connect it to your computer and iTunes to try doing a backup.

  • Can you back track your iMessages from the past on your apple ID account

    can i back track my iMessages on my phone 4s from the past from my apple ID account?

    If you mean recover old messages, the short answer is no.
    You would have to do a full restore of a backup that contained the messages you wish to view again.    Basically, if you deleted the messages, they are gone.

  • I need help with my wife's Iphone 4 upgrade, can you help me?

    I just talked my wife into upgrading her iphone 4, but it says something is wrong after downloading, can you help me??

    It is almost impossible to help you as you have provided no information about your issue.
    If you were to explain the issue, then maybe someone could help.

  • HT1766 can you back up your notes

    my son just deleted some of my notes on my iphone 4s and i desperately need to get them back. is there a way?

    If the notes were on the phone and you backed it up on the computer, then you can restore to that last backup. I don't believe that Notes are backed up if you are using iCloud backup. Are you syncing Notes to a supported application on the computer, such as Outlook? If so, and you have synced the device, the notes should be there.
