![]() ![]() Next time, it’s the divorce attorney I’m afraid. Is everything iMazing backs up and syncs done locally on the Mac? Can it be used free of any cloud storage? I already used up all my wife’s goodwill when I asked her to do iCloud backups to test if that would fix things. Will iMazing sync her pics with Photos? Will it sync back from camera roll? Will iMazing sync her books with the Mac Books app and book purchases made on her Mac? Will iMazing backups contain 3rd party apps and all app settings? Network and security settings? if she’d need to migrate to a new iPhone? Will iMazing also make 100% complete backups as reinsurance in case her iPhone gets destroyed/stolen or similar, i.e. in iTunes, will iMazing’s sync see and transfer those changes? In both directions? Will iMazing sync her music as selected in iTunes? IOW, if she continues to buy music and organize playlists etc. Will iMazing sync and back up iPhones both over USB and wifi? Will it sync in both directions? But for the iMazing solution to work, we need it to replicate a lot of functionality. I have absolutely no problem paying for iMazing if it will allow us to sync her stuff (which iTunes for some reason no longer is willing to do). You can ‘share’ the contents, but not in a form that some other device will ingest and let you keep working. ![]() Notes is a pita, which is the main reason I never use it. Many services such as and google support carddav and caldav, so pick one you’re ok with. Contacts and Calendar should be syncable to some other carddav/caldav server. Health will let you export an archive of everything, and there are third party apps that will reimport that archive to Health on the new phone. I don’t know the best way to deal with most of them, if iCloud backup didn’t get them right. Health, Messages, Call History, Notes, Contacts, Voicemail, likely more. It’s tedious.Īpple mostly rightly considers several apps to be so private that they have to be backed up before third party apps can look at them. There may not always be a way to move the app data to the new phone, but at least it will preserve stuff that would otherwise be lost. If there’s an option to save in a form that can be transferred via iTunes, do that even if iTunes can’t see it, because it will let iMazing get to it. IMazing can also do a bulk export of all data it has access to:įor the apps that iMazing can’t help with, go through them one by one on the phone and use whatever mechanism they provide to share or backup data. Many apple apps won’t let iMazing (or any other third party app) look at data directly on the phone though, and third party apps can hide it. PhotoSync – transfer and backup photos & videos - PHOTOSYNC – PHOTO TRANSFER APP | Wirelessly transfer and backup pictures & videos to & from your computer, iPhone, iPad, Android devices, NAS, Cloud and Photo ServicesĬan iMazing see the apps directly from the old phone and let you look at the data? If so, you may be able to move (most) of that data to the new one by hand. It can not only copy from the phone to a mac, but to other iThings, android, windows, NAS… It’s the only way I do photo transfers now, since I don’t use Photos.app and the newer systems have some trouble with Aperture. ![]() Photos are easy with the excellent PhotoSync (~$4). To rescue things from the old phone if needed: If that doesn’t work, all is not necessarily lost because at least you have the otherwise functional old phone. It’s taken me as many as four tries (connected to itunes with no other problems iCloud may be similar) before everything showed up. Apple doesn’t care that it may take days to recover such ‘temporary’ files, even if they’re still available to redownload. Of course that loses everything that wasn’t backed up, and a fair bit of stuff that never gets backed up, such as file downloads or map tiles in many apps. Apple, of course, would tell you to fix it by erasing it and restoring from a backup, because that’s their solution (sic) to pretty much all problems. It sounds like the original phone is messed up somehow. Simon wrote: “I’m really out of ideas at this point.” ![]()
