Can a deleted iTunes back be recovered
Quit iTunes if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder named "Backup" should open. Move it to the Desktop temporarily.
Enter Time Machine and restore a snapshot of the Backup folder. You should then be able to launch iTunes and restore the mobile device. If you wish, you can then replace the older Backup folder with the one you moved.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
