Hello rebeccarouse,

If you need to backup your iPhone but are not able to see the iPhone's screen because of water damage, there are a few things you can try.

  • Backup your iPhone using iTunes
  • Transfer your purchases from the iPhone to iTunes
  • Import your pictures to iPhoto or Aperture as a secondary backup of the pictures taken with your iPhone.

The links below will provide more detailed instructions.

Make a backup using iTunes


  • Open iTunes and connect your device to your computer.
  • Save content that you downloaded from the iTunes Store or App Store by clicking File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
  • Click File > Devices > Back up.
  • After the process ends, you can see if your backup finished successfully by clicking iTunes Preferences > Devices. You should see the name of your device with the date and time that iTunes created the backup.


  • Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
