Apple officially abandons iTunes! How to sync iPhone and iPad to Mac?

Recently, Apple officially released the new system macOS Catalina and pushed updates to all compatible devices. It is reported that Mac mini, iMac, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air after 2012; MacBook after 2015, 2013 Mac Pro, iMac Pro and the upcoming 2019 Mac Pro all support macOS Catalina system.

A major change in the new system is the cancellation of iTunes, which is split into three independent applications: Apple Music, Podcasts and TV.

Therefore, the way to back up, update, and restore iPhone, iPad, and other devices is also different from before.

It is reported that the function of iTunes to back up iPhone and iPad has also been taken over by Finder. After connecting the iOS device, it will appear in the Finder sidebar like any other external drive, allowing direct backup, restoration and synchronization, which is very convenient.

The specific method is as follows:

  1. Plug in your iPhone or iPad using a Lightning or USB-C cable to connect to your Mac;
  2. If it does not open automatically, launch Finder;
  3. Look for your connected iPhone or iPad in the sidebar on the left under Locations.

Here’s a screenshot of what a connected iPhone or iPad looks like in macOS Catalina:
