What if Itunes doesn’t detected the backup, I copied a backup from my old laptop hard drive to my new laptop but I don’t see the backup on my devices back up list on itunes. I copied the backup directly from my old laptop hard drive using and adapter and copied directly in my iTunes backup area on my new laptop, the backup is visible on the backup list on my user app data but is not visible on iTunes device backup list. What should I do?
After i copy my backup to external hdd and then copy and paste it to computer in the exact same location i cant see it in iTunes preferences. Can you help please?

my other question is how do you open both windows to copy and paste the backup to the external hard drive and copy and paste it on the computer and how do you have both of the windows on the computer screen please let me know man ?
Hello Vikas, it was very helpful; Can I del.the data from my mac after copying it to the external drive? or do we have the option of directly backing up the iPhone into the external hard drive?
Hello Ritam, you can delete backup folder from your computer after copying it to external drive. Make sure you don’t rename your backup folder on external drive, this might give you problems while restoring data in future (iTunes may not read the backup) You can make backups to external drive with few changes in windows settings. Google it and you should find the solution. I shall be making video soon. 😊

Hi two question for you. 1) how to view all the pics/videos from those back up on external drive. When I moved all the files to external hard drive and i tried to click and view the pics and video… For some reason it doesn’t shows/read most of the pics and videos (I tried using QuickTime and VLC player). 2) I created a back up from my old iphone (256GB iPhones 7s model) on windows PC, bought new iPhone 13 Pro MAX 256 GB (internal space is 238 gb due to pre installed software), back up is getting failed, keep saying your back up is 247 gb, delete some files. What should I do now?
I did not found the back up on C>Users>my user>etc>>>>roaming>Apple computer But i found it on Users>my user > Apple >Mobile sync > Back up> 4 folders Is that right to copy it from the second path ?

Once you copy the backup to external hard drive. Can you delete the original backup from computer? And yes then can we copy the Sam deleted folder from external hard drive to computer?
Thanks vikas for your tutorial. actually i have two backups. by this method, i wanna copy both backup to my external HDD., then i wanna reset my windows and (if So) later i wanna restore the backup to my iphone, then i may have to reinstall the itunes and then i may copy the backup to the windows same folder (from where i have copied) then it can be restored? am I right?
Hi bro I've some queries 1) Is this method possible now with windows 10 , iOS 14 2) Can we access photos and videos from the backup file without itunes ? 3) In Android we can backup selected media like photos , videos ,notes etc as files .. Is it possible to do this with the backup folder created in the documents ?
Many thanks for the valuable information. If I delete the files from my PC after transferring the file, will this delete will not make the restore process successful?
Sorry, I did not get your question. But after you Copy the Backup folder to external drive, you can delete it from your PC. Now when you want to restore the data, you can simply put it on C drive, same location and restore it to iPhone via iTunes.

Rather moving the entire BACKUP folder, move the actual backup folder inside BACKUP folder. Do not rename the folder once you move it. And then iTunes should easily recognise it 👍🏼

Friend, you cannot read the backup file. It can only be read by iTunes. There are third party apps that show you the content of your backup like photos, videos, etc. But those may not be safe as they access your personal data from backup 🙆🏻♂️
Hello Friendly Vikas, thank you for your videos. I've a question about the copying: my computer says: Cant read from the source file. Shall I just skip it? Or better try again, maybe try another date? Or it is damaged and it is useless. Please answer. Thank you!
It copies all data in your iPhone backup to new computer. Now, your iPhone data will not include music, photos and videos if they are added to your iPhone from your computer manually. On the other hand, if you have photos and videos taken from iPhone camera or download from safari, whatsapp, etc., then that will be part of iPhone backup and you would be able to restore that to new iPhone. Do I make sense to you? You need any additional info? 🤔
Is there a way to undo this process? After creating this symbolic link now I’m willing to unlink the path and create a normal backup to my mac ssd drive instead of external hard drive

Hi Vikas. I have iTunes backup saved up in my hardrive from 2019 from my windows laptop. Now I wish to restore that on my Mac and current ones do not have iTunes store so what should I do? Kindly help as I will be really grateful to have that data back.
What is your model identifier on your iPhone XS? I saw the iPhone 4s is 4,1. I have an iPhone 6s and my model identifier is not iPhone 6,1, my iPhone XS is different too.
Since that is not even logical for an iPhone 10s to be labeled 11,2. I'm not sure where you got your information from. Honestly when it comes to this type of things I would like a Apple Guide, Apple Official Manual to back this up. Just because it is not logical to me and I cannot find anything official on it.
I have shown that in the video. Just to iTunes backup location on your mac and copy the entire folder to external hard disk. do not rename the backup folder. That's all!😅

Make sure you restart pc and retry 🤔
Friendly Vikas Thank you dear Friendly Vikas. I did that too and somewhere in the weekend I’ll see if it worked out good. I’ll note here the outcome.
Does this work if you copy a backup from a Windows laptop to a Mac? And vice versa?
I didn't try that. You should give it a try, I guess it should work. 🤔
Thank you so much
So does this restore all music, photos and data onto my new computer?
It copies all data in your iPhone backup to new computer.
Now, your iPhone data will not include music, photos and videos if they are added to your iPhone from your computer manually.
On the other hand, if you have photos and videos taken from iPhone camera or download from safari, whatsapp, etc., then that will be part of iPhone backup and you would be able to restore that to new iPhone.
Do I make sense to you?
You need any additional info? 🤔
thank you so much for the help
You’re welcome Ujval 😊
Well, if I want to renew the backup copy, will I move it again to the hard disk or is there another way?
you have to move the new backup manually.
Is there a way to undo this process? After creating this symbolic link now I’m willing to unlink the path and create a normal backup to my mac ssd drive instead of external hard drive

Follow second part of the video. I have explained how to remove symbolic link and make itunes use default backup location. 😊
Hi, my iTunes backup says it was corrupt and can’t restore it to my phone when I try, Will it help if I send my backup file to another pc and restore it from there? I really need my data please help thank you.
have you found a way to overcome this problem?
Megan Gontier Yes I got most of photos back manually from backup but I used a 3rd party app.
Football Land what’s the name of the app? And did you get them back to your phone?
hi vikas i wanted to ask that suppose i have a lot of data in c drive and want to move to d drive can i copy paste from c to d .. and then delete from c .... to save space . and then whenever next i want to backup i could again copy from d and paste it to the same location in c drive?
Hi Vikas. I have iTunes backup saved up in my hardrive from 2019 from my windows laptop. Now I wish to restore that on my Mac and current ones do not have iTunes store so what should I do? Kindly help as I will be really grateful to have that data back.
What is your model identifier on your iPhone XS? I saw the iPhone 4s is 4,1. I have an iPhone 6s and my model identifier
is not iPhone 6,1, my iPhone XS is different too.
It’s 11.2 for my XS.
This is because apple release 2-3 models every year. So iPhone number and model identifier no longer matches 😄
Since that is not even logical for an iPhone 10s to be labeled 11,2. I'm not sure where you got your information from. Honestly when it comes to this type of things I would like a Apple Guide, Apple Official Manual to back this up. Just because it is not logical to me and I cannot find anything official on it.
How do I store all my files on to an external hard drive so I can then delete them of my Mac to free up space?
I have shown that in the video. Just to iTunes backup location on your mac and copy the entire folder to external hard disk.
do not rename the backup folder.
That's all!😅
