5 apps for iTunes backup and recovery
If your system crashes and your entire iTunes library vanishes, you
may think that your music, videos, and photos are gone for good. But
before you excavate your CDs and photos from storage to re-rip and
re-scan, check out these top five apps for restoring your files with
just one click.
Sharepod transfers your tunes, videos, podcasts, and photos from your
iPod, iPhone, or
iPad to your Windows or
Mac
computer with just one click -- for just $20. You get 50 transfers for
free before purchase. Sharepod also comes with a helpful database backup
should anything go wrong during the recovery process.
TouchCopy lets you transfer music, videos, photos,
games, apps, messages, notes, calendars, and contacts from your iPod,
iPhone, and iPad to your hard drive after a system failure. A bonus: You
can transfer iBooks. TouchCopy prevents iTunes from re-syncing with
your device while the software is running. You can transfer 100 files
for free but will have to pay $29.99 for unlimited transfers.
CopyTrans is perhaps the most transparent transfer
software between iPods, iPhones, and iPads and your Windows machine.
From the start it offers helpful user guides and a demo. You have two
backup options, Smart and Manual -- we recommend Smart. Then just watch
your music, photos, and apps copy over automatically. You get 250 tracks
with the free trial, but if you have more tunes to transfer, expect to
pay $19.99.
Easy-to-use Senuti lets you transfer files from your
iOS device to iTunes or a separate folder on your Mac. After the brief
walkthrough, you'll be able to drag and drop playlists directly into the
app. You can also preview songs before you transfer them by pressing
Play. The trial version lets you move 1,000 songs in 30 days. After that
you'll have to pay $18.99 for the full version.
The beauty of Wondershare TunesGo is that it lets you
connect multiple iOS devices at once and transfer files between them
without going through iTunes or first loading them into your computer.
It also offers the wonderful Smart Export feature, which copies only
what's missing. Wondershare TunesGo is free to try with limited
functionality; a full license costs $39.95.
