iTunes is a powerful tool that can help you back up your data. However, it is important to note that iTunes does not backup everything on your computer. For example, iTunes does not backup your photos or documents.
Additionally, iTunes only backs up certain types of data, such as app data, contacts, and calendars. If you have important data that is not backed up by iTunes, you should consider using another backup solution.
How Do I Backup Itunes Directly to an External Hard Drive?
Backing up your iTunes library is important to do on a regular basis in case your computer crashes or you lose any of your files. You can backup directly to an external hard drive by following these simple steps:
1. Connect the external hard drive to your computer using a USB cable.
2. Launch iTunes and go to the Preferences menu.
3. Click on the Devices tab and then check the box next to “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.”
4. Next, click on the General tab and then click on the “Import Settings” button in the middle of the screen.
5. In the Import Settings window, choose MP3 Encoder from the drop-down menu next to “Import Using.” Then click on OK to close out of this window.
6. Now go back to iTunes and select all of the songs that you want to backup by holding down the Shift key and clicking on each song (or you can click on one song and then scroll down and hold down Shift while clicking on the last song – this will select all songs in between).
Once all songs are selected, right-click (or Control-click) on one of them and choose “Create MP3 Version” from the pop-up menu that appears.
Now that you have created MP3 versions of all of your songs, it’s time to actually backup those files onto your external hard drive:
7. Go back into iTunes Preferences > Devices once again and check the box next to “Prevent iPods, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically.”
A warning message will appear asking if you are sure you want to do this – just click OK since we’re not going to be syncing anything anyway (we’re backing everything up manually).
8. Next, go into Finder (on a Mac) or Windows Explorer (on a PC) and locate where your iTunes Music folder is stored (by default it should be in Users > [your username] > Music > iTunes > iTunes Media).
9 Drag this entire folder onto your external hard drive – this may take some time depending on how large your music library is as well as how fast your external hard drive is able transfer data.
