How to move your iTunes folder to other location.



Are you having a small storage left for your iTunes Backup ? Are you wanting to backup all your iDevices to others location like external hard disk or a bigger partition ?

Note: Moving the iTunes iPhone/iPad/iPod backup folder to another drive requires that external drive to be connected in order to backup or sync future iOS devices properly.

Follow this instruction to get it done :

From the Mac OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G to bring up the “Go To” window, type the following directory in:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/

From this folder, copy the “Backup” folder to a new location on the external hard drive, for example a folder called iOSBackup on a drive named “External”

Now we need to create a symbolic link between where the original Backup folder was, and the new location on the external drive. Launch Terminal and type the following command, referencing your new backup location:

ln -s /Volumes/External/iOSBackup/ ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup

Congratulation !!! from now on you will trick iTunes to located the mobilesync folder into your external drive or other location you prefer.
