To avoid ruining any of your backup files, here's what you should know:

ITunes is dead, at least on Mac, following the arrival of macOS Catalina. Here's what will happen to your music, videos and the rest of your library. Apple WWDC announced the news of iTunes being killed in the macOS Catalina.Three different apps will replace the media management feature of iTunes. The iOS sync, backup and restore feature will go to the Finder app, continuing serving you to back up your valuable information and files. MacOS 10.15 Catalina has been released by Apple as a free download for all compatible MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, iMac Pro, Mac Pro, and Mac mini devices.

  • The Finder and iTunes save backups to a Backup folder. The location of the Backup folder varies by operating system. Though you can copy the Backup folder, you should never move it to a different folder, external drive, or network drive.
  • Don't edit, relocate, rename, or extract content from your backup files, because these actions might ruin the files. For example, to restore from a relocated backup file, you need to move it back or the file won't work. Backups serve as a safe copy of your entire device. So while you might be able to view or access a backup file's contents, the contents usually aren't stored in a format that you can read.
