Disable backups to speed iPhone/iPod touch syncing

Navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/...DeviceID.../Backup to see your iPod/iPhone backup.

Each file in that folder represents a single file in your iPod's home directory, which includes all applications you've installed. If you sort by date in Finder you can see the files that were actually copied over during the last backup.

Yes, but they have names like "17b4b541ddc772e8c8a792cbf84462c5e9813652.mdbackup"

How is that helpful?

If your backup is corrupted, could you start deleting the most recent files starting from the latest until it works? I've had this same problem with the dotMac Backup program. Apple needs to find a way to verify the backup or let you return to the last known good one.
