  • Where can I find the backup files in iTunes for my iPhone, I want a copy

    Where can I find the backup files in iTunes for my iPhone, I want to copy the backup files for all app's and phone numbers, I'm using Windows XP
    I just need to know where its hiding, a link that shows an address where would sure help

    First you'll need to make sure your XP is set up to view hidden files and folders.
    1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
    2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
    3. Click the View tab.
    4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
    5. Click OK.
    Now you should be able to track down your backup file at the location in the following document:

    I am still on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and do not have iCloud in my System Preferences. I have registered with iCloud online and backed up my iphone5 last night to my iMac. Where can I find the backup on my iMac?
    Below is what comes up when I sign into iCloud - where are all the other applications that I need to backup?
    Appreciate any answers to this query?
    Rachel

    Your question is unclear.  If you're backing up to your iMac, (via iTunes, with cable or WiFi), this has nothing to do with iCloud and the backup is stored on your iMac here:
    : ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

    where can i find the backup files stored on my mac?

    If you are asking about where iTunes stores backup files, see this knowledge base article for the info.
    If a general statement of backups, then then you have to look at each application to see where it saves according to its preferences window.

  • Where can I find this backups?

    Hi! As you see in the picture, my Mac have 80,5 in backups. Recently I run the command "tmutil disablelocal" for stop the auto local store of Time Machine backup but my Mac still store some of those backup. Where can I find those files? I search in "/Volumes/MobileBackups" and the folder doesn´t exist. I'm using OS X Yosemite.
    Thank you for the help.

    When  you disabled it via the Terminal they should have been erased.
    Time Machine Snapshots
    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder and enter or paste the appropriate command line. Press RETURN and enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed. Press RETURN again.
         To turn them ON: sudo tmutil enablelocal
         To turn them OFF: sudo tmutil disablelocal
    Note that turning them OFF will also delete all existing snapshots.
    For more about snapshots see: OS X Mountain Lion- About local snapshots.

  • Where can I find my backups from Palm?

    I have to do a Hard Reboot to my Treo (palm software) and so I am trying to accomplish a good backup so that I can get all my third party software and information back.  (I am having trouble with my email software shutting my palm software down.)
    How do I know that I have a good backup and where on my computer can I find this??  I have 3 pieces of third party software (one for mileage and one for my lists and one for bible study) AND after we have completed this reboot, how can I reinstall my backup?  Will this bring my phone back with my software and information in that software??  I don't want to lose those 3 pieces software and/or information currently in those software pieces. 
    Thank You in advance,
    Linda
    Post relates to: Treo 700p (Sprint)

    We have the software for you to download. The reason why I wanted to see if the data is on the device is it will make it much easier to move the data to the new Desktop. As for the name. As long as you saw this under hotsync on the Treo your perfectly fine.
    Now we need to remove as much as possible of the other version of Palm Desktop. If you have your backups located other than in Sony clie folders we are ready to do the next steps.
    Now I'm going to tell you where to go and what to delete. At some points it might sound vague. That is due to I do not know the Clie software that well and they modified it when they used the software from us. Also there is going to be a place on your computer call the Registry Editor. While in here only delete what is specified. If you do not see exactly that then do not delete. If you have any questions, post back and and ask away. I'm here to help you and get you where you need to be.
    Now the hard part,
    You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something happens. This step you already done so we can go foward.
    Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do with Palm Desktop from your computer. Next I would like you to delete the Sony Clie folder that has Palm Desktop in it. Nothing else just that folder. Should be under C:\Program Files\Sony or C:\Sony\Handheld... If you do not know what to delete then do not worry about this. One this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your registry.
    Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel you are unsure of your self see if you have a friend that can help you or a PC technician that you can pay to help you. This will show them everything they need to delete. To help against this we need to do a backup.
    Go to start and run type "regedit" without quotes
    Highlight MY COMPUTER, go to File --> export. Should pop up with a Save As box. Current location is fine should be in My Documents. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
    Easiest way to make sure your doing the right one highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
    If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician. BUT do not turn off your computer.
    The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here but if they are delete them)
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
    * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
    Next reboot your computer
    Then reinstall your palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you did not sync before create a hotsync name.

  • Where can I find iTunes Backup files for my iPod touch on Windows Vista?

  • HT1386 Where can I find my backup contact list

    We shared an icloud back up with my daughter & she deleted contacts from her phone which ended up deleting my husband's very important contacts. Even on the cloud they are gone. I would have thought it would take more than just one deleting on the phone for the contacts to be completely erased but that seems to not be the case. When trying to restore his phone I can't even get the contacts back. I have spent 3 days trying to do this & find his contacts but no luck.... Are they hidden somewhere on itunes maybe? Where might I be able to find his contacts? Please help!

    When you share an iCloud account any actions taken on one device (such as deleting contacts) are mirrored on all other devices sharing the account.  (That's what iCloud is desiged to do; sync changes to all your devices.)  Unfortunately, contacts are not included in the iCloud backup as they are assumed to be stored in your iCloud account.  If the contacts are no longer on icloud.com, you will have to find another backup source to recover them from.

  • I recently used SuperDuper! to transfer my hard drive, setting etc to an SSD to replace in my MBP.  When I placed the SSD in and went to "About This Mac" I came upon this in the Storage section.  My question is where can I find my Backups and delete them?

    I recently used SuperDuper! to transfer my old MBP hard drive and its settings to a new SSD.  Everything went smoothly.  When I opened the "About this Mac" section and looked under Storage it showed this:
    Where are the "Backups" (purple) located? I want to delete these files to free up disk space on my new SSD.  Thanks in advance for all of your guys help!

  • Where can I find my backup photos?

    I want to find my photos backup file.
    I usually just copy and paste my photos to my computer.
    The itunes always backup, i can find the backup file but with no photos!
    Thanks

    The photos are blob objects in a SQLite database. You need a backup extractor application for your computer to retrieve them. Why don't you just copy the photos from your Camera Roll by using any photo management app on your computer, as described in the 3rd section here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • Where can i find my backup from a week ago

    i resontly plugged in my iphone and it automaticly synced over my previos backup, is there a way i can get my packup from a week ago, i know once they sync it wipes out the one from before but is there a way i can get one of my old ones back

    Yes, usually the new backup will override the old.  However, you may check to see if you have more than one backup.
    First go to iTunes menu EDIT > PREFERENCES > DEVICES tab, do you see your backup there with Date and Time?
    If you can find an older backup with information that you want(From Date and Time), connect your Device to Computer. Select your iPhone or iPod under "Devices" on the left Pane. Right click it to bring up the menu and select Restore from backup....

  • Where can I find "Notes" backup among backup folder/files?

    I had to get a new "old" iPhone from the Apple Store in order to get back to 1.1.4 from 2.0 - which was an unmitigated disaster. Since could not sync my backup file as it was already 2.0 ized, had to just start from scratch. Of course, Notes do not get sync'd right? So I've lost them. But I suspect they are one of these jibberish named backup files from the backup folder. Question is, which one? I'd like to salvage it and place it in my current (new) backup folder. Can anyone help me identify it?

    OK, here's an update. I went into my old back up file and started opening up each and every file one by one (using text edit to read them). Many are just gibberish and code, but some you can decipher what's in there. And lo and behold, I found the Notes file. I was able to read my data inbetween a lot of code. So I printed it out and now at least have what was there. My first thought was to take the file, go into the current and active back up file and replace the empty Notes file with the old one. Then I would wipe my phone completely and restore the back up with the old Notes file contained within. But I hit a snafu. When you go to wipe it, it tells you that all data would be lost (ok) but that the iPhone would automatically be updated to the latest software version! Ayyyyy, that would mean going back to the 2.0 I just exchanged my phone to get away from. So alas, I just decided to take the print out and start entering each of my Notes back into the Notes application one by one. Didn't take that long and some were old info I didn't need anymore anyway. So, I'm back up and running now.

  • Where can I find the backup on my computer

    I deleted some pictures by mistake

    Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
    The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and clickOK.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.

  • Where can I find the backups.backupdb folder?

    I accidently moved my backups.backupdb folder in my Macintosh HD to another place. Now, I forgot its orginal place. Would anyone like to help me provide some info on the original place? Is it under "library" or under "systerm"?
    Thank you for your kind help.

    If the backups.backupdb is on Macintosh HD then you are backing to the same disk drive that is storing your data. This is not a good backup plan. The usual reason to need the backup is disk drive failure. If both your data and the backup are on the same disk drive and it fails you lost everything.
    You need to get an external disk drive for Time Machine to send the backups to so that in case Macintosh HD fails then you still have your backup on another disk drive.
    If you search for backups,backupdb in SpotLight that should find it for you.
