Though archiving dates will do just as well as the #x.īe sure to close down iTunes and iCloud beforehand. ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup.archive#x as a parking name, on any external medium. But make sure that you sync your mobile devices soon after deleting those backups to create a new backup for your devices. You can delete those backups to free up storage space.
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/BackupĪnything you suspect of being old garbage, you can backup to an external medium, as long as you remember where you've put it, and where to put it back to on your Mac if needed.Į.g. Answer: A: Answer: A: These backups are from your mobile devices. Not well-versed yet in iCloud (and not particularly prone to become so), under Mac OSX on the other hand, the directory seems pretty clear: I'm still only touching peripheral ripples of that vortex. The only unclear mess is iTunes itself, which over the years has turned into a software vortex. Especially if you're into reading Etrecheck & Console reports, or learning Terminal Unix commands. But make no mistake: backup and file sync work hand in hand to ensure complete protection and maximize user productivity for your organization. Whilst still a mess, iOS backups on Macs & iCloud (which I have been marginally into only recently), are a pretty straightforward mess it seems. sync makes accessibility to users’ files fast and easy, whether they’re on a desktop, laptop or mobile device.
Hi Patrick, the DR Fone link is pretty interesting.
