So I’ve been having weird bugs and issues since moving to the 16 Pro Max and I wanted to backup locally and do a restore os. iCloud backed up overnight but that took a bit. I am trying to backup to my computer but it’s terribly slow. I’m looking at possibly 3-5 hours at this rate!!!

Tried two different machines and several cables. Even using Apples TB4 cable!

What is the deal? My phone has 500 gb of data. I know it doesn’t take hours to move that much data.

What machines and what type of USB-A, USB-C, or TB-4 ports? What iPhone are you trying to backup?

It might but we need know the specs of the adapters in all devices.
