Where is the back up folder in Itunes

I want to use synctoy to back up my Ipod but I don't know where the folder is located that has all the apps and stuff in it on my pc to back up
can anyone tell me. thanks.

Go to the advanced tab in iTunes' preferences. The location of the iTunes media folder is specified.  You also want to backup the iPOd backup file.  That file is located here:
iTunes gives your backup a unique name for each device. To find the backup you just created, sort the window view by date and time created or last modified. 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\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
You may have to have show hidden file turned on.

    You only get one download.
    As always, it is your responsibility to back up your content.

  • How do I put all the songs from a compilation album into the same /album/folder in Itunes v12

    How do I put all the songs from a compilation album into the same /album/folder in Itunes v12 i know in other versions it was via get info but as all of the tunes have the same album title , I am not sure what tio change to achieve this ?

    I don't see your screenshot but I assume you're starting with something like this, i.e., the compilation split into multiple albums:
    If you select all the items that you want to be in a single album, right-click > Get Info you'll see this:
    As you say, in iTunes 12 you don't see a field to enter a distinct Album Artist value.  You can, however, address this by clicking the Add Field button and selecting Album Artist:
    That makes the field available in the metadata dialog so that you can enter the required value:
    You can also show the pre-iTunes 12 version of the dialog by holding the SHIFT key when selecting Get Info - this allows you to enter the Album Artist directly:

  • How can I upload the back-up folder into iWeb?

    How can I upload the back-up folder into iWeb?
    Hi
    I've set up my website using iWeb 08, always keeping the latest version in iWeb and backing it up in a folder on my HD.
    Yesterday I got rid of the current design iWeb and tried to upload the back-up folder into the iWeb application. No success.
    How can I upload the back-up folder into iWeb? Many thanks for your help.

    Welcome to the discussions. Only iWeb's Domain file can be opened in iWeb. See this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
    Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.
    Presumably you've been prudently making backups of your Mac's internal HD, so search there for the Domain file's invisible extension:
    .sites2
    If you can't find your old Domain file, paragraph 2.3 of this FAQ page gives some tips on how to use published files, graphics, photos, etc., to help rebuild the site from scratch:

  • Where's the My Templates folder in Yosemite, or How to delete a Numbers template.

    I have Numbers 3.5.2 - where'd the My Templates folder go? I don't see it in Library/Application Support. .... In other words, I'm trying to delete unwanted templates. Could it be that it's now easier to find than in earlier iWorks, but I'm missing the obvious???

    When in doubt, check HELP. (duh).............
    Rename or delete a custom template
    After you install a template, it appears in the My Templates category in the template chooser.
    In the template chooser, Control-click the template name, then choose Rename or Delete.
    If you’re renaming, type a new name, then press Return.
    You can’t rearrange templates; they always appear in the order in which they were added.

  • Where is the downloads status screen in iTunes 11?

    Where is the downloads status screen in iTunes 11? I use this to manage bandwidth and prioritize downloads.

    The download status used to be listed under the purchased content playlists visible only when there were active downloads. It is now an icon just to the right of the search pain again only visible only when there are active downloads. Click on that icon and a new windows opens. Don't blink, you might miss it.  At least is is resizable.....

    There is nothing to download.
