Re: Backup failure in iphone 3gs.

It seems that you have used wrong procedure to backup your iphone. Actually Your itunes application regularly take backup of your iphone when you connect your iphone for synchronize. You can use following steps to take backup.

1.Synchronize your iphone with iTunes. Now your all installed application like game, video, songs, photo will saved by iTunes in your computer.

2.To take manual backup right-click on the iPhone icon -> there you can find backup option -> just click on it -> now your backup process will automatically start.

You can find your backup data at:\Documents and Settings\(abc)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

If you repeatedly getting this problem then you can use another application like iDrive Lite to take backup. It is fast in process. With this application you can take backup of your iphone and keep it at your computer or you can saved it on web. It is very easy to use. You can download this application from apple store for free of cost.

Now download new version of itunes from apple store for free. Install it properly.Connect your iphone and now try to take backup your iphone. If you still unable to take backup of your iphone then you have to contact apple store regarding this issue.
