Backups (in iCloud oder auf Ihrem Mac) von einem iPhone oder iPad enthalten keine Apps und nur einige Arten von Medien. Sie enthalten Einstellungen und bestimmte Arten von Dokumenten, die in Anwendungen gespeichert sind, und können Bilder enthalten, die in der Kamerarolle eines iOS-Geräts gespeichert sind. Einige Anwendungen, die iCloud oder eine andere Cloud-basierte Synchronisation verwenden, kennzeichnen ihre lokalen Inhalte als nicht zu sichernd, da sie aus der Cloud wiederhergestellt werden können - es werden nur die Zugangsdaten aus dem iTunes Backup wiederhergestellt. Sie müssen sich nach der Wiederherstellung in ein Konto einloggen oder neu synchronisieren.

Sonst kann es passieren, dass Ihr Backup verloren geht und vielleicht auch Ihr Telefon und dann sind alle Bilder weg.
iPhone users should make sure their files are protected by backing them up. Backing up and restoring your iPhone can actually be a straightforward process. And even if you can’t foresee yourself needing it, having backed-up files at hand is a vital bit of insurance if disaster strikes. There are a few scenarios where you’d need a copy of your iPhone data. It may be that your phone is broken, lost or stolen, or perhaps it’s as simple as upgrading to a new iPhone and needing to transfer data over. There are also some cases where data goes missing after upgrading to a newer iOS. Regularly backing up your iPhone ensures that you’re always prepared to easily recover your personal data if unexpected issues arise. How to back up iPhone dataFirst, you’ll need to decide where you want your iPhone backup to live. You can store iPhone backups on a computer or on the cloud. iPhone backups tend to be pretty large files, so while we will explain here how to back up to your computer, if you want to be economical with your storage it would be best to keep it on the cloud where it won’t use up disk space.

This could lead to issues when it comes time to restore your phone. How to back up your phone on DropboxRelying on iCloud does have its limitations. iCloud can be restricting for those who don’t only use Apple devices, and it can be confusing to decipher which files are being stored where when you use iCloud’s services and have files stored locally on your phone. The most fail-safe way to ensure all the files you need are protected and still easily accessible would be to use Dropbox as your primary storage across all of your devices. We’ll discuss that further below, but for now let’s look at how to store an iPhone backup on Dropbox.

To restore a backup file from Dropbox, you’ll need to first download it back to your computer. It will need to be placed back in the Backup folder that you initially extracted it from.

Download your backup file from Dropbox and place it in the Backup folder. Then, follow the same steps you would to restore a backup from iTunes. Storing files on your computer poses its own threats. If anything happens to that computer and the files are lost, you won’t be able to recover them. Cloud storage doesn’t have that risk—everything lives online where it’s encrypted and safe. Keeping your files on Dropbox also means you can be sure that all your important files are where they should be without any confusion about what’s been backed up and what hasn’t. As mentioned, iPhone backups don’t make copies of absolutely everything, but if you manually upload your files to Dropbox then you know you’re in complete control of what goes where, including things like music you’ve downloaded that wouldn’t be included in iPhone backups. Make the most of the cloudWhile keeping your iPhone backed up is always a good idea, an even more reliable way to protect your content would be to simply store all of it on the cloud. That way, should your iPhone ever experience any issues, or you replace your phone, your files will always be safe and sound without needing to restore your content. |
