The archive option does not exist in the PC version of iTunes. Or put another way, I can't find it.On Tue, Mar 17, 2015 at 1:36 PM, bim.bousman@gmail.com [apple-iphone] <apple-iphone@yahoogroups.com> wrote:MAYBE MY DESCRIPTION IS NOT TOTALLY EXACT:
I WROTE:The answer to my question:iTunes keeps a "Running Backup" of your iPhone on your computer... every time that you do a backup, it "updates" the active running backup that is there... there is no provision to go back in time and restore the status as of a previous instant.EXCEPT that when you choose to "archive" a backup, iTunes makes, timestamps, and saves the current copy, which does NOT get updated the next time that a backup is taken.After you archive a backup, the next time that a backup is taken, a whole fresh new backup is made and the archived backup/backups remain unchanged until you choose to delete one or more of them.LET ME TRY AGAIN:Maybe when you choose to archive, it timestamps and saves the chosen backup,and then creates a copy which it uses for the current running backup, or something like that...The net result, regardless of how it does it, is that there is a copy of the archived backup there that you can restore from, plus a new running backup that is keeping track of how things are now...BB
