      But how would I backup everything from an iPhone? I got photos and contacts down. Idk about the rest. Maybe you’ve given me a new project.

        iCloud.

        Local iTunes backups don’t work over a VPN. Those are your only two ways to get a system level backup.

        Edit: Downvotes don’t make it any less true.

        Pay for one month of iCloud, it’s $3 to $11 depending on need. Cancel after trip.

        Macs, or iTunes on Windows. There are two modes of a backup: actual one or backup in name only (like the names of the apps, I wish the latter fucks off).
