Hardware:
Although we all wish automated backups ran perfectly, you sometimes have to find files manually to restore a backup on your iPhone or iPad. If you want to restore an iPhone or iPad backup via the conventional method of a local backup (and your computer knows where those backups are), you can use iTunes for Windows or macOS 10.14 or earlier. If your Mac runs macOS 10.15 or later, you can. If you are on a Mac, you simply need to go to the Finder and from the menu at the top of your screen, select “Go” - Home - Music - iTunes. Following these steps will take you directly to where your iTunes library stored and give you access to all the files stored within.
