With either the Finder or iTunes, the backup may happen automatically, but if it doesn’t, clicking ‘Back Up Now,’ will begin the process. When using iTunes, check for the device icon that will appear near the top left of the window to open iPhone device options. For an older Mac or a Windows PC, Apple’s iTunes app is needed to connect to the iPhone and make a backup. For newer Mac computers that have macOS 10.15 or greater, opening a Finder window is the next step and the iPhone should appear under ‘Locations’ in the left sidebar. If the iPhone asks whether to ‘Trust This Computer,’ click yes to allow access. Simply connecting the iPhone to the computer with its charging cable makes wired transfer possible and avoids any internet slowdowns. An iPhone can back up to a Mac or a Windows PC. Adding extra storage to a computer is relatively inexpensive and provides plenty of room. When choosing computer backups for an iPhone, the size of the data is generally much less important.
Thankfully, Apple allows backing up to a computer also. iCloud storage is priced competitively with other services, but it does have a limit of 2 terabytes, so avid photographers may need another solution. Of course, Apple is happy to sell iCloud storage in order to relieve some of the stress of managing photos, videos, and other data. Photos and videos can use large amounts of space in a short time, so consider backing these up in another way. If this happens, either some data needs to be removed from the iPhone or some items can be excluded from the backup. If there isn’t enough room left in iCloud, the backup will pause and alert the user. Backups can be scheduled to happen daily if that's preferred. Tapping ‘Back Up Now’ will immediately start the process. If it’s off, the switch is gray and the selector is on the left side of the switch.
The user can tap their user ID, which appears at the top of the Settings app, then select ‘iCloud,’ then ‘iCloud Backup’ and make sure it is switched on, which will make the switch appear to be green and the white dot is to the right. When connected to Wi-Fi, the option can be found in the Settings app. Related: How To Clean Up iCloud Storage To Make Spaceīacking up an iPhone with iCloud is remarkably easy.
