Locate iPhone or iPad Backups on a Mac On Mac OS X, you can find iPhone or iPad backups created by iTunes (macOS 10.14 or earlier) or Finder (in macOS 10.15 or later) in /Library/Application Support/MobileSync. Each backup is stored in a separate folder named with a long string of random letters and numbers. When you plug in your drive, your Mac will ask you if you want to use that drive as a backup disk. Hit 'Use as Backup Disk'. If you don't get this prompt, you can always go to System Preferences.
Currently there is not a backup feature within Banktivity itself. We do recommend using a backup system like Time Machine for backup purposes.
To set up Time Machine, all you have to do is buy an external hard drive and plug it into your Mac. As soon as you do, macOS will show a dialog box requesting confirmation that you want to use that drive with Time Machine, and ask whether to encrypt the backup disk or not.

While we think it is great idea to have regular online backups, we don't recommend putting your live document in a shared drive (except for iCloud Drive). This includes online backup services like Carbonite, CrashPlan, SugarSync, etc… Online backup services like these have been known to cause data corruption in Banktivity Document (data) files. If you would like to save a copy of your Banktivity Document file online for backup purposes, we would recommend using Banktivity's Cloud Sync feature. Or backup a non-live document to your cloud service of choice.
