S sTcA macrumors newbie Original poster Mar 28, 2011 23 1 Dec 18, 2023 #1 Good morning, it looks like everytime I do a backup of the iPhone on my macStudio (12.7), it overwrites previous ones. I.e. I can only recuperate from the last backup, the list is empty. Any idea how to keep older backups? Attachments Capture d’écran 2023-12-19 à 06.05.54.png 34.9 KB · Views: 77
