I was trying to stay ‘On Leave’ from WAMUG while taking a break from support
work. But I also feel the frustration of Tim & Susan.
Michael you have been given more than enough valuable information from Susan &
Tim to be able to understand the difference being Sync and Backup of your

Michael, I'm feeling a similar sense of frustration to Tim. We've told you that
you have control of what happens. The articles tell you that you control what
happens.
What more can we say. Or, are you waiting for Ronni? If so, why not get in
touch with her directly. I'm sure her fees are reason

Yes I guess they do. Apple are trying to be helpful to the users. It asks if
you want to match the apps you've downloaded on your phone. You choose yes or
no.
I guess Syncronise does mean Match by the sound of it.
But I am fairly sure the Sync updates to the latest change on any device in the
group.
For example:
Today a friend gave me her new mobile phone number which I changed in my iPhone.
Once I got home and was within my WiFi range, my iMac and my

computer is the master and iPhone is the slave I'm reluctant to synchronise
because this must mean that anything on the iPhone that is not on the computer

Michael, seems like you have enough information now to go ahead. Have you given
it a go?

Hi Michael,
I feel that the backup is the primary thing when syncing.
You can choose wether to backup to iCloud or to Mac ( I have chosen to Mac).
I have created an Album in Photos called “iPhone” and have ticked that as the
one to Sync.
I have also created a Playlist in iTunes called “iPhone” fo
A backup also looks after all your settings so you can reinstate a device
following a calamity.
If you are comfortable not having this option, then don't worry about it.

My question is - back-up what exactly?
The only thing I have on my iPhone is a small collection of reference photos
which get copied ( that’s a verb I actually understand) to my MBP and deleted
off the phone. The rest is a series of partly finished crossword puzzles and a
partly read novel.
Thank you Susan. As you say, the decipher tools article is worth a read.
Cheers,
Michael.

Hi Michael, I also found another article which takes you through all of it.
https://deciphertools.com/blog/2015_01_27_itunes_sync_vs_backup_ensure_data/
It is a step by step guide similar to what Ronni would give you.
If neither of these threads make sense to you its possible to just do your o
Hi Michael, here is a link to a discussion about backing up and syncing the
iPhone and computer. Basically, when syncing your iPhone, its is backed up
first. You have a choice of syncing music, photos, etc. You will be given these
options when you attach your phone.
There are other discussion p
I'm a tad confused about the advantages and differences between backing up my
iPhone and syncing my iPhone.
I avoid technological clouds of any description as much as I can, and so I
assume if I backup my iPhone I plug it in to my computer and save the entire
contents into iTunes.
