Hey everyone!
Sadly, I’m forced to have an iPhone because of work. It’s a good device but I hate the philosophy behind it.
Right now I have a windows 10 vm to run iTunes and backup that phone.
It takes around 30gb on my Surface Go 1 with a 128gb ssd.
If I could use bottles or wine to backup my iPhone, it would save me some space and help me fully get rid of windows.
Sadly, last time I tried none of these worked. I think I managed to install iTunes, but then it crashed and sent me some weird messages.
So has anyone managed to backup an iPhone with these programs?
Wine nor bottles are reliable enough for making backups in that fashion. You’re almost guaranteeing corrupting the backup and the same goes for restoring the backup.
If it’s for work and is required to be backed up then just backup to iCloud and have your work maintain the extra cost in size.
What philosophy do you speak of? Are you talking about the walled garden that is the App Store?
