To get things working smoothly, we need to hack the installation of iTunes so that it thinks its id is the same as the one on our iPhone. The only thing standing in your way, however, is that darn persistent id. If you plug in an iPhone that has a different persistent id than the copy of iTunes installed on that computer, you will get the warning dialog shown above. iTunes generates a new id when it is installed (or more accurately, when it builds its library). This 16-digit hexadecimal id is stored on both the device and the computer it is paired with. Download the iMazing app from the website and once it’s installed, open the app.The first thing to be aware of is that iTunes uses a unique "Library Persistent ID" to identify the pairing of an iDevice to an installation of iTunes.
But to restore a backup, you’ll need to buy a license for $44.99. IMazing’s free version lets you take unlimited backups for free. This is a two-way sync, so you can just as easily export music, photos, or other data from an iPhone or iPad back to the Mac. Using iMazing, you can individually sync photos, apps, and other data. The app is simple to use and is filled with features you won’t find in Apple’s own backup tool. A couple of iOS device managers are out there (like dr.fone).
If you’re not running macOS Catalina and you don’t want to use iTunes to back up and restore your iPhone or iPad, you can use a third-party app. RELATED: Where Are iTunes Features in macOS Catalina?
