Location of encrypted backup itunes

Yesterday I had to update the issue 4.3.5 firmware of an iPAD2, owned by a friend of the 9.3.1 beta. When I connected to iTunes on my Macbook air, it made the backup (he ate of disk space as a crazy - took maybe 10 GB or more). Now, I returned the unit and want to erase the files backup, but to my surprise the locque/Users / / Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup folder is completely empty. The files are still on my SSD that disk space is much, much lower that before the backup. Where can I find these backups in order to remove them? The iTunes encrypt option has been selected.

Open iTunes preferences, Devices tab. You should be able to find and delete the backup from there.

  • I forgot the password for backup iTunes, how to do now?

    I accidentally deleted some contacts and SMS on my iPhone 6 during the cleaning of the unit. I backed up my iPhone a few days before. So I had planned to restore the items deleted from the iTunes backup. However, when I restore my iPhone with iTunes, it asks me to enter a password. I tried some more used by myself, but without a bit of luck.

    Is it possible to restore my iPhone from the iTunes backup?

    Hello

    If you forgot your password for encrypted backup itunes, the only thing you can do is remove the encrypted backup find and manage your backups iTunes - Apple Support.

    After that just who go on your iphone in Settings - General - reset - Reset all settings.

    When you have completed these steps, you should be able to create the new backup without encrypt or implement the new password for encryption you will know.

    I hope this will help!

    How can I disable iTunes backup encryption?

    To disable iTunes backup encryption, enter the password and uncheck backup encrypted in iTunes. Password encryption is always necessary to turn off encryption of backup.

    You cannot use a backup encrypted if you do not have the password. If you have forgotten your password, the only way to turn off encryption on the backup device is to wipe your device and set up as new. Clear deletes all data on your device. If you don't want to erase your device, restore from a backup instead.

  • If I use FileVault, do I need to encrypt backups Time Machine?

    My main hard drive on my MBP is encrypted with Filevault - that said, is it still necessary to encrypt backups in Time Machine preferences?  The option of my Time Capsule is actually grayed, so I guess I have to format the Time Capsule disk... but that is still necessary?  I guess I'm good with just FileVault enabled, on the Mac?

    No, there is no need to encrypt TM back ups when your Mac has active FileVault.

    Encryption of TM is separate and is kind of FileVaulting like the back of TM ups. If you feel you want your back ups as safe from prying eyes, as you did with your MBP, you can activate the encryption. I do the network back ups to a Mini Mac OS X Server running and have never encrypted them. I can, I elected just don't do it.

  • How to kill encrypted backups? (new iPad)

    Years, I lost my password to my encrypted iPad backup. Apple says that "so much worse so sad' and so I can't get/encrypted backup control for the iPad. So, what should I do when I get a new iPad? Please don't tell me that the poisoned atmosphere is postponed to a new device! I'll be able to restore what does get saved without screwing things up?

    Without the password, you cannot restore the encrypted backup, so will have to put in place the new device as new from scratch anyway.  Do not enable backups on this new device and you'll be fine.

    The requirement for encryption would only "carried on" for the new device if you know the password and where to restore the backup encrypted on the new device.

  • BitLocker encrypted backups

    My apologies if this double job with other positions. I don't think I've seen the answer in the messages, I searched, but with my knowledge of Bitlocker, I might have seen the answer but not understood.

    I want to keep a backup online disk image. I have a HP Elitebook active Bitlocker with a TPM.

    What I read, Bitlocker uses strong encryption and the only dangers are social engineering or (in some cases) a black hat having physical possession of the laptop. For this reason, I would rather store the version of the backup rather than trusting the security of the online site or the backup program.

    I can do it and, if so, how can I go about it?

    Can I load a standalone program to backup and restore on CD and save volumes encrypted on an external drive? (In other words, is the drive encrypted in a format readable by a backup program?) Can I restore the backup encrypted on the original disc and use it as I did before, or do I have to use the Bitlocker recovery key at some point? Does make a difference if I restore a new physical drive rather than one that is currently on the computer?

    Is there another method that can be better/more/easier but still accomplish the purpose of storing a Bitlocker encrypted backup?

    Or is it a bad idea from the start?

    Thank you.

    You might be able to do, but obviously you cannot be run simultaneously on the same system that you are backing up.  You need to boot from a USB key-CD/DVD and run a backup program.  As you said, since the entire disc is encrypted, it will not do any recognizable file for a backup program system deal with.

    If I read the website, the freeware "Clonezilla" might be able to do what you want.  Because the file system is not recognized, this force the program to create a backup of your drive and your backup will be roughly the same size as your hard drive (whatever it is encrypted does not compress).  So if you have the value of a 300 GB of cloud storage (or whatever is the size of your hard drive is), it might work for you.  In addition, you may need another drive of the same size or larger than your current drive to contain the backup file until you can start on a normal file system and transfer it to the cloud.

    Clonezilla: <> http://clonezilla.org >

    Of course a method much less wieldy would be to create a .zip file of only the files you need to archive and then encrypt this file .zip with GnuPG

    <>http://www.Gpg4win.org >

    GPG (also commercial PGP) existed for a lot longer than BitLocker (at least 20 years), was not known to be compromised and is open-source with many peers (Microsoft cannot claim that).  It uses the same algorithms as the BitLocker encryption.  I personally trust GPG me BitLocker.

  • Is it possible to change the location of a backup of the LR catalog?

    I need to change the location of backup for my LR catalog, but don't consider it as an option in the settings of the catalogue or LR preferences.  Is it possible to do so without creating a new catalog?

  • Let the RMAN to know the location of the backup during RMAN DUPLICATE item

    RDBMS Version: 11.2.0.3
    Platform: AIX 6.1

    I spent a few discussions lately about the creation of standby DB by using the RMAN DUPLICATE method.

    Taking an example from a thread by steve74 yesterday.

    The commands below are executed after copying the elements of hot backup of the primary DB Backup on the standby server.
    --- Will be running the following DUPLICATE command from standby server 
     
    export ORACLE_SID=orcldg
    SQL> startup nomount pfile='/u01/app/oracle/11.2/db_home1/dbs/initorcldg.ora'
     
     
    rman target sys/mypass@PRIMARY_TNS auxiliary / 
     
    run 
    {
         allocate channel C1 device type disk;
         allocate auxiliary channel C2 device type disk;
         duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck;
    }
    The auxiliary instance is just in NOMOUNT. Lets say I copied the primary DB Backup items to the
    following in the standby server location
    /u04/backup/RMAN
    I don't see all the above commands which allows to RMAN knows about this place where are stored the backup pieces. For regular DB cloning, we are cataloging of backup items using the CATALOG command. But, you need a control file to do cataloging. The auxiliary instance does still not have control file. So, how this work?

    Hello

    simple. duplicate is a faster and simpler, method because you issue a command.
    After configuration, you issue a command, and if the pfile/spfile is properly configured, RMAN takes care of ALL the necessary measures, even for ASM (assuming the switch of data file also). It restores the CF, he set up the db, it restores, it retrieves, it updates the CF with the correct names, it converts file names if necessary, open the DB ETC.
    And, since only a single command is used, it is less prone to errors.
    And allows you to save a lot of trouble.
    Quite simply, you have a few details such as the location of the backuppieces.

    It works very well also for DEV env refreshes (with a few modifications on the pfile/spfile file).

  • The backup location has changed in iTunes 12.5?

    I've already mapped ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup on a network share on my NAS from my MacBook has enough free space to store all the backups of my mobile device. This worked fine until I upgraded to iTunes 12.5.1 yesterday, now the backups seem to run OK until they arrive just before finishing, claiming there is not enough free space on the target device. It's weird, because there is about 5 TB of free on my NAS. At this point, there is a new folder inside backup with today's date, and the devices of iTunes preferences page displays a new entry for the unknown, dated 01/01/2001 00:00.

    So, what has changed with the latest version of iTunes? The audit of the application of the host operating system is free space instead of the backup location? Seems a bit silly...

    Have exactly the same problem.  Once I removed the symlink to my folder of nas backup completed without error.  I copied my share of nas backup and recreated the symlink and then itunes was able to read correctly.  Still not able to complete the backup in the folder of sin, however.

  • can application not available I restore the data from an encrypted backup?

    I had to get my iPhone repaired, so I did a full backup to iTunes and reset Once it was fixed, I have restored the backup, but a few apps "could not be restored. In the case of the one that interests me, the app no longer seems to exist on the App Store - I found a link for it from a review of old, but the link is dead: the app no longer exists. Since it is an application that stores data on the heights of our children, and I had used it for a few years, I would like to be able to recover at least the RAW files of my support, even if the app no longer exists. It is not a large amount of data. The backup is encrypted, so none of the files have names that are meaningful, it is impossible to guess what file is associated with that particular application. Any suggestions?

    If you have the app in the iTunes library on your computer you can restore it from there.

  • Everyone is dismayed to see that there is no password recovery or reset secure put in place for encrypted backups?

    I am absolutely amazed that there is no recovery password for iPhone backups encrypted.

    (1) no password is required to access the iTunes application. He launched and the phone connects automatically.

    (2) someone might maliciously put a password. The password for Mac or device using iTunes OSx need at least before setting the encryption password.

    (3) there is no recovery option. None. Tell me: what password-protected sensitive data have NO option of recovery? No secret questions, no e-mail link, no OSx password, nothing. It's horrible.

    I'm in a situation where I remember not the password, and even if I had the foresight to write it somewhere, that the hard copy has disappeared. I suffer a miserable condition where I lose memory. I have reset passwords on all my stuff course often. That's just my new reality.

    I am faced with a situation where if I ever need to restore my device or upgrade to a new, I won't lose all my old texts and local health data in my applications (which is essential for a person with health problems). The loss of memories of conversations for a person who relies on these devices, precisely because I lose my memory is a slap in the face.

    What the risk of COMPUTER audit team approved this feature, Apple? It's quite incredible that a company of your size would be created people to fail like this. Please post a fix in iTunes for password recovery and substitute it. PLEASE, I BEG YOU.

    N ° if there is a way to recover or reset, the encryption would be completely useless.

    Exercise good security practices on the computer where you have installed iTunes and you will not you care about someone maliciously setting a password for backups.

  • Movement of backup itunes

    I want to move my itunes backup everything from an old computer (under windows) to another computer (Windows) with an external HARD drive.

    Can I do this?

    If you are referring to the backup of an iOS device, click here, locate the backup file and drag - copy in the desired location.

    If you are referring to backup an iTunes library or the working copy, and then drag the entire library to the desired location, launch iTunes with the SHIFT key is pressed and select it. Rentals in it only can be played only on the computer that they were originally uploaded to.

  • password backup iTunes for iPhone

    My previous phone was an iPhone 6 Plus. My iPhone that more 7 has arrived. Backed up my iPhone 6 more to my iMac (have done before today as well) so it was just what I usually do. Remove all the settings on my iPhone 6 more (unfortunate error) then proceeds to connect my iPhone 7 more for my iMac so I could put the backup on it. I was then asked the password to restore my iPhone with my iPhone backup 6 Plus.

    Like many others I don't remember this password. Very stupid, I know.

    I tried many types of passwords including typical passwords like 'password', '1234', '0000', my diary of iMac in my e-mail address, my apple, my iPhone password ID and of many other passwords I have used in the past without result. Thank you I can continue to guess the password that I will continue to do so, but I'm trying to search for alternatives as well. I don't remember the problems of last time I changed phones which was when I went to an iPhone 5 iPhone 6 more return in 2014. Had no problems backing up iPhone 5 and restore on my iPhone 6 so I think I need to set the encryption and password at this time in 2014 or soon after.

    My backup is currently sitting on my iMac, and of course I can't access it. I travelled the other forums and came across the software 'iPhone backup password recovery"which would essentially go through every password possible it might be and give me he ultimately, but I would need to buy this kind of software. So that the password should be relatively simple (which I believe would probably I'm not really complex great past) the software get the password on the other, it could take years apparently.

    Is there any available software compatible with Mac that I could use to recover the password?

    If it is not available on Mac software, is there a way I can transfer the backup from Mac to Windows and get the recovery Windows software instead? My iMac hard drive partitioned so I have MacOS on part and the windows on the other hand so he could make the process easier transfer, perhaps?

    Even if the evaluation version would give me the first character of the password it would get me on the right track for you.

    Someone suggest? Is there a reliable software that would do the work on MacOS or Windows? Can I copy the back up which has been carried out on my Mac on Windows and deal with it instead?

    I really wanted to get this sort because my backup literally has everything on it. About 93GB to be exact which consists of about 19 000 photos/videos and all the rest of 2010 to now.

    If you are going to answer you please read what I said. I really want to get this resolved. Thanks for any input. Really appreciate it.
