How to Backup iPhone in iTunes?

[pork]

Pretty much I have no backup history. I was trying to force it to make a newer backup since the last one iTunes says it has is from launch. I tried deleting my previous history to see if it would force a backup but it didnt. I tried syncing a bunch of times and still no new backup. How can i force this? I need to have a backup just in case, so this is very frustrating!

Having the same problem here

Got mine to do a backup. At first I changed the date to a year ahead, but then I saw there was an update for iTunes. I installed the update, changed the year back and now it is doing a backup. You might want to try changing your date and see if that helps

When you plug in your iPhone you know how its names appears in the left column or itunes? Right click on it and choose backup.

Right-clicking doesn't display a "backup" choice... Only a "restore from backup" choice shows... (????)
