Where are the iPhone backups stored?

I am completely reformatting my aging iMac in order to clean the years worth of stale data... However, although the applications can all be re-installed, I need to be sure I save all my iTunes info. I have saved off all of the folders contained within the Music->iTunes folder, but does this contain the backups somewhere for our iPhones and iPod touches?
Also, I am assuming then as long as I save off the apps contained within 'Mobile Applications' and 'iPod games' I can just re-import those when I have the system refreshed and ready to go?
Thanks in advance.

Your computer is probably set to NOT show hidden files, I know on my PC which has Vista, I need to go into Tools menu/folder options/click on the view tab, you need to look down the list that will have appeared in the little window for SHOW HIDDEN FILES & NAMES, see the picture in the below link. You need to change this to show hidden files etc and you then should be able to see this folder.

In Lion 10.7.4, where are the iPhone backups?

Before Lion 10.7.4, iPhone backups were usefully to be located in User/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup.
This was handy because it meant that by copying the files you could use more than one computer to access the iPhone(s).
In 10.7.4, the Backup dossier is still there (when you actually manage to access the now hidden User/Library, for which purpose, by the way, the following thread is a great help: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18386812#18386812), but it is now empty.
iTunes still recognises synchronized iPhones, so the file is somewhere around…
Does anyone happen to know where it has been put?
(I did think of using Time Machine to restore the backups to this pre 10.7.4 location, but decided not to in case that created a glitch.)
Thanks for any help

Where are the iPhone backup files stored on a PC?

I recently downloaded the new iOS software to my phone....when I went to restore from my last backup -- my computer shut down half way through and everytime I've tried since, it won't work. I think my home computer has a virus that is causing this so I was hoping I could copy the backup file and load it into my iTunes on my work computer and restore my phone at work? Any idea how to do that or if it will work? I had over 1,000 pictures and videos that I really don't want to lose....(yes yes I know I learned my lesson to download them....but they are of my kids and I really don't want to lose them!)

The backup files are in the same place on windows 8, but the folder is hidden by default. You can view it by pressing Windows + R, then pasting in "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\USERS\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup"
Or you can tell Windows to show hidden files and folders. In Explorer go to View menu -> Options button -> View tab and then check "Show hidden files, folders and drives". Then you can browse to the folder as normal. This will make all hidden files and folders visible, but you can set the option back if you don't like it.
I hope that helps!

Where is the iPhone backup file stored which is produced during synching?

Background: I had a HD crash and replacement: this created problems with the iPhone apps in iTunes (i.e. they "disappeared" from the Applications tab in iTunes.
Question: why can't I restore the iPhone to the last backup that is automatically made when you sync? Does anyone know where that backup file is located and how to invoke it?
Thanks and cheers,
Veit

Allan, I am puzzled and hope that you can help and clarify:
I did try the "Restore the iPhone to its Factory Settings" approach and did transfer the iTunes folder (from before the crash) through Time Machine to the new HD. When I connect the iPhone to the computer and start iTunes there, I am informed that an iphone has previously synced with this computer and am asked whether I want to set up a new iPhone or "Restore from the backup of iPhone". BUT, the Last Synched info states that the last sync was TODAY, and NOT as of before the crash (when the Apps and their Settings were OK, i.e. to what I would like to restore). Frustration galore.
This begs the question: 1.) where on the computer is the last backup stored, and can that be replaced by using an earlier version found on the Time Machine? But then I think I understand you saying that the backup process of the iPhone does NOT contain the Settings and Data related with each third party application, only the app itself; or did I misunderstand you.
Hence question 2.) Where are the data and settings of the apps stored: in the Backup that's created when syncing (and apparently only a single, i.e. the last backup is kept, and that in my case is useless), or in the Mobile Applications folder under iTunes, which can be restored.
And finally 3.) you state: cancel the backup when you connect the iphone to the computer running iTunes. When I click on the x next to where it says that the iPhone is being backed up, it cancels the whole sync process, not only the backup process.
Sorry to bother you so much, but I'd really hate to loose all the data and settings of the ninety or so Apps which I am using. Again, many thanks in advance for any clarifications.
Cheers,
Veit

Where are the actual documents stored in solution manager (KW)?

Hello,
I have a question regarding Solution Manager and storing documentation.
When we in our process structure in a project uploads a word document
(as documentation), where are the file then physically stored?
I have checked the table SA01PHIO (a KW table), here I see a new entry every time I
upload a new word document (or other type of documentation). But this
table does not grow accordingly to the size of the word documents I
upload, so the physical document must be stored somewhere else in the
database.
The description of field 'PHIO_ID' in table SA01PHIO is "Physical document", but since the field is of type char (size 32), then it can only be a link to the actual file?
We need to know where the documents are stored, so that we can plan our
storage strategy and database space management accordingly.
Anyone knows where the files are stored in the database?
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Samuli,
Thank you for your help.
After further searches, I have found exactly what I was looking for.
Samuli, as you said, documents are stored in table SACONT01, but I did not understand how they were stored, as all the data you have in this table is something like:
FF06010102028000343130320000000074040000121F9D02A37D7259692086C2F0D7761017222...
So the information can be benefit to other people searching, I will share it here.
The string of alpha-numeric characters you see above is a "part" of the document.
Document data is cut into clusters, and stored in table SACONT01 (in field CLUSTD, coupled with CLUSTR).
In order to retrieve all the clusters for a given document, you need to get its logical ID (LOIO - LOgical Information on Object):
- Select the document (SOLAR01/02 for projects, SOLMAN_DIRECTORY for solutions)
- Enter DOC_INFO in the transaction code field
- Copy the Object ID
In table SA01PHIO, retrieve the physical id(s) from the logical id (PHIO - PHysical Information on Object).
Search SACONT01 with the physical id(s).
Just as an example:
- 340 entries for a Word document (about 50 pages)
- 57000 entries for a video (200 MB)
Hope it will help.
Regards,
Rémi.

Where are the page comments stored?

Hello,
does anybody know where are the page comments are stored?
I searched the view APEX_APPLICATION_PAGES, but I can`t find them.
I hope you can give me a hint!
Thank you,
Tim

Hey Scott,
thanks for your quick answer!
In the table wwv_flow_app_comments is only one entrs, and that is a comment of a HTML Region!
So the comments of the pages, which i put into the comment text field in the page detail are not there!
What is wrong?
Is there a reason why there are a few for the regions, items, processes and so on, but not for pages?
It is a little bit confusing...
Thank you,
Tim

Where are the results (report) stored

Running Oracle 10g on Solaris 10 SPARC
Have run the following commands (get info for fine tuning of Oracle 10g on Solaris 10):
from SQLPlus
execute dbms_stats.gather_dictionary_stats;
and
execute dbms_stats.gather_fixed_objects_stats;
Where are the results stored [table name ? path to file ?]
and is there documentation as to how to interpret the stats data collected?
Thanks

1) These two "stats" are run for the sole use of the OptimizerMainly, yes.
2) Should these be run periodically to provide
updated information to the system(Oracle)?
if so, how often..Depends on the tables and what they are being used for.
Some tables may require daily updating of stats, others less frequently or never.
Any other infomation you can provide or point me to a
document that explains this?http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/stats.htm#sthref1466

Where are the video's stored on my iPhone 4s?

I was looking on my iOS5 4s "SETTINGS/ABOUT" and there it says my phone has 12 videos on it. Where can if find out where these videos are and how can I delete them?
Are these vieos that have been taken with the on-baord camera or also files that have been downloaded via email attachments?
Thanks.

The number will include any videos that you've synced to the iPhone from your computer's iTunes, which should show in the Vidoes app :
They can be deleted directly on the iPad by swiping across their name which should then give you a Delete button. Any films that you've bought from iTunes can only be downloaded once, so before you delete them on the phone make sure that you've got a copy on your computer.
It also includes videos that you've taken with the phone or saved from emails, which should be in the Photos app :
They can be deleted in Photos either via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view, or via the trashcan icon in the bottom right corner if viewing the video in full screen
