Every time I sync my 2nd gen ipod touch, itunes automatically does this "back up" thing that takes 2+ minutes. I never insert a disc or anything so I don't know where it's backing up to. I remember something itunes asked me when I first registered the ipod (in December) about backing up and I just clicked "ok". It's getting to be really annoying now and I want to turn it off. I have no idea how to stop it or even where my music is backing up to. Can somebody help please??
As far as I am aware there is no way to turn the backups off. You can disable auto-sync so that when you plug in your iPod it doesn't backup and sync, but if you choose to sync it will do a backup anyway.
