HT2477 how do I backup iphone on itune

how to create new user on imac

Hello ryan tate
You would not be able to access your complete library and only purchased content is to sign in and authorize your Apple ID. If this is a friends computer, the best way to do this is to create a new user to keep your data separate from their data.

  • How do you backup IPhone contact list to Computer (XP) PC Computer?

    How do you backup IPhone Contact List to PC Computer(XP) ?

    The easiest way that I have found is to open Outlook, go back to Itunes & select your phone.
    Choose the 'Info' tab at the top of the screen & tick the box marked 'Sync contacts with' & choose Outlook from the drop down box.
    Image attached may explain better.

  • How do i backup iphone 3g

    how do i backup iphone 3g without iTune on a new Mac? iTunes wants to do an update before it can sync, but if i do that it will erase everything on it.

    Don't do what xtremecarbon said.
    Do you have access to your previous iTunes library, maybe in a computer backup?
    If not, you'll need some 3rd party software to get your data off your iPhone... try TouchCopy.

  • How do I "backup" and "restore" iTunes correctly?

    I am in the process to renew my PC and was wondering how I can backup my whole iTunes configuration and content (iPad, iPhone backups, applications, and other content) so that I can restore it on a new PC.
    I might have overseen any posts regarding that topic, but more than happy if someone can reference to it.
    Thanks.

    Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

    Launch iTunes on your Mac, plug your phone in, select it in the sidebar, select what you want to sync under the various tabs, hit the sync button. If the sidebar is not visible, go up to the "View" menu & select "Show Sidebar".

    I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
    If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • How to sync an iPhone with iTunes 12?

    How to sync an iPhone with iTunes 12?
    i downloaded today iTunes 12 and i wanted now to sync my iPhone with it... but i'm lost. i cannot find my iPhone on iTunes 12. How to sync it?

    OK.  So when you plug it in, what happens?
    When I plug in my iPhone, along the top row of icons, a new one appears in the shape of a phone. If I click on that, I get a sidebar with info on my phone and to the right is information similar to what I'd see in previous versions of iTunes. I have it set up to sync when connected, so the sync starts immediately.
    (Edit...)
    Here's the icon that I get when I plug the phone in:

    Force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

    Or, login to iCloud.com, locate the phone, then erase it.
    Either method will remove the passcode.

  • Unable to backup iphone after itunes 10.7 update in windows 7

    After the update to iTunes 10.7 on Windows 7 64 bit today, I can't get my iPhone to back up to my computer.  I get a a message about being unable to establish a session with the phone.  This happens with my iPad as well.  Is this a known issue, or an update issue on my system?

    Okay so, i had the same problem too. i reinstalled my windows and i was unable to get my itunes to backup my iphone. Luckily, before reinstalling the windows, i had saved the backup files of my iphone.
    1.You can do this by going to: C drive/users/user/appdata/roaming/applecomputer/mobilesync/backup.
    2.Note: windows computer do not show hidden files by default and appdata files are hidden.
    to see the hidden files, visit http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Show-hidden-files
    3. so next time you format and reinstall the windows, make sure you have backed up the iphone backup files.
    4.so now after installing windows again and after reinstalling all the essential softwares, reinstall itunes and connect your iphone to itunes and authorise the computer.
    5. go back to the iphone backup file storage location which is:
    C drive/users/user/appdata/roaming/applecomputer/mobilesync/backup.
    6. once you are there you will see that there are no back ups in that location which is quite obvious. now paste the backup files of your iphone ( The backup which you made before installing the windows). as soon as you do this, you will see that the tab whi read: Restore form a backup glows up and is Clickable.
    7.so now, you have the backup and restore fully functional. for a safer side, make a new backup and transfer all the purchases to your  new itunes.
