Cant find iphone back up files
Hi - can anyone help me find my iphone back up files?
There is no MobileSync folder: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
(as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766)
I did find the following MobileSync folder - but this was empty
~/Downloads/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Any tips?
What I want to do store my current iphone backup file on a separate hard-drive.
cheers, Klaas
Vista puts the iphone update file in computer name/appdata/roaming/apple computer/itunes/iphone software updates.

Where can i find my back up file
someone please tell me where i can find my back up files from my ipod so i dont loose my songs because i havent got the same music on the laptop as the ipod. much apreciated if some one will tell me.x
When iTunes creates a backup file it does not backup your music - it backs up everything but, essentially. So when locating the backup file you will be disappointed to find that there is no music stored.

Updated to iOS 5.1 and can't find the back up file it created
recently updated my ipod touch to iOS 5.1 and during the process it asked if I wanted to create a back up file. so i did and once the process was done my ipod was restored. no biggie figured I would restore the back up file right. Wrong when I go to restore a backup file it said the last back up was a year ago! is there any way to file the back up file that was supposedly created today?
You can also look here:
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 theReturn key.
