How Do I Extract Data from My iPhone Backup to My Computer?
If you’re using a Windows PC and have an iPhone backup you want to extract data from, here’s what you can do:
1. Connect your iPhone: Plug your iPhone into your Windows computer using a USB cable.
2. Trust This Computer: If a message pops up on your iPhone asking if you trust this computer, tap Trust.
3. Open iTunes: Launch iTunes on your Windows computer. If you don’t have iTunes, you can download and install it from the Microsoft Store.
4. Select Your Device: In iTunes, click the device icon that appears in the upper left corner of the window.
5. Choose Restore Backup: Under the Backups section, select the one you want to extract data from and click Restore Backup.
6. Wait for the Process: iTunes will start restoring your backup. Once it’s done, your data should be on your iPhone.
Remember that restoring a backup will replace the current data on your iPhone with the data from the backup. So, be cautious if you have any new data you don’t want to lose.
