If it is broken, it is too late to make a back-up. The time to do a back-up is before catastrophe strikes!

backing up iPhone with Mac when screen is black. hi. my iPhone screen is black but I think it recognizes when I touch smh, it just doesn't show me the screen. I have a lot of photos on my phone so I have to get a back up. I tried to back up with my Mac, but since it doesn't have an iTunes, I cannot back up. is there another app that can replace iTunes or is there another way to solve this?

Backing up phone with Shattered Screne I shattered my screen on my iphone 7 and want to back up my phone to my computer but am not able to allow access due to not being able to see anything on my screen. Is there any way to plug into a computer to back up without allowing the access or is there another way to backup/save all contacts and photos etc?

Unfortunately, it is too late to back up the phone.

Backups have to be made....before....disasters strike.
