How do I recover deleted iPhone Backup?

I ran into this issue too :/ Might you have a WinXP backup of your system? If so, restore folders found in:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

(thanks to Dah•veed: Where is my iPhone 4 backup stored in Windows 7?))

For any Mac users who stumble on this thread - Time Machine keeps backups in this directory:

~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup

You can recover deleted iPhone backup at any time. Follow these steps to choose a backup and sync the data to your iPhone.

When you synchronize your iPhone with iTunes then it automatically create backup of all data. As you say that you deleted your backup by yourself, then it can not be recovered with any manual method. There are also some reason by which stored data is deleted or corrupted due to some problem like storage disk failure, system problem and many more. So if your data is important for you and you really want to get them back then iPhone backup tool restore all your lost iPhone data and create backup of your iPhone easily. I also use the software for same problem and I successfully solved my problem.
I hope this tool also solve your problem.

Recover or undelete iPhone backup sometimes is a tricky problem. If you use iTunes as your iPhone manager, you should know there is auto backup generated by iTunes when you sync iPhone with it. Yes, iTunes has done the backup for your iPhone indeed. You only need to restore from the iPhone backup file (SQlitedb file) by iPhone Data Recovery.

I didn't quite capture the actual name of file when I restored mine, but try opening the recycle bin and restore the apple back up file (you will be able to figure out based on the name of the file and file size.) and disconnect your your phone from itunes, and reconnect the iphone. You should be able to see a restore option.

Hi friend, when you synchronize your iPhone with iTunes then it automatically create backup of all data.

As you say that you deleted your backup by yourself, then it can not be recovered with any manual method.

There are also some reason by which stored data is deleted or corrupted due to some problem like storage disk failure, system problem and many more.

So if your data is important for you and you really want to get them back then an iPhone backup tool called iPhone Data Recovery restore all your lost data and create backup of your iPhone easily.

are any of these confirmed to be working? I had the same problem except I decided to set up as a new device thinking I could restore from a backup. But then it overwrote my old backup file. So now i lost all my messages, settings since i backed up to my computer instead of icloud.

We may often lose or delete our important data from iPhone. So I think if we have backup in iTunes or iCloud, we can easily get them back when they lost.

hey I did the same exact thing and lost all of my pictures out of my Iphoto library on my MAC computer. Apple said they cannot retrieve them but 2 companies Tekserve and DriveSave both want about $1,000 to retrieve them. I was wondering if you had any luck with your issue?

In case you didn't notice, you replied to a post that is over 5 years old now. I would guess that they resolved their problem long ago.

Ah, but you didn't notice that the only purpose of the post was to spam the forum with a recommendation for some sort of malware masquerading as recovery software.

Thanks, I missed that point.

Ever a solve that worked? I deleted an iPhone back up in iTunes and need to find and restore from that back up. It's not in recycle bin. Any idea where it would go after deleting?

It is gone after deleting, except from your backup.
