There was a time when everyone would plug their iPhone or iPad into a computer and use iTunes to sync data or make a back up. This practice largely went out of fashion once iCloud became the go-to method of keeping information safe. But that’s not to say you shouldn’t continue to use your Mac in such a way. Indeed, even though Apple dropped iTunes from 10.15 Catalina onwards, it retained the ability to sync and back up with the Mac, it just moved the feature to Finder. Here we take a look at how it all works and explore two methods: one requires you to connect your device with a wire and the other allows you to use Wi-Fi.
