Actually..no. On Vista (on mine at least) it is found at the following location -

CUsers\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates

and where to find the file, itunes creates, when i make a backup? (on Win XP)

i found an answer in the forum but this folder :

CDocuments and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

its been driving me crazy.. when i go to Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates.. i dont even have the AppData folder.. how do i find it??????

/Users/USERNAME/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/

Putting compatible firmware in this folder will cause iTunes to use it instead of looking for it online.

@stevennuckols
If you're on XP
AppData = abbreviation for Application Data

make sure you have "Show hidden files and folders" enabled in Tools-->Folder Options-->View

if XP not please list OS

Im using Windows 7 and iTunes saves your backups in

CUsers\USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

and iTunes saves the firmware in

CUsers\USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates


**this is for iPhone only as u can see it says iPhone software updates**

C:UsersUSER NAMEAppDataRoamingApple ComputeriTunesiPhone Software Updates

**this is for iPhone only as u can see it says iPhone software updates**

Isn't the firmware save location virtually identical to the Touch's?

[ItalianM4fia]

Well in win 7 you got to turn your ((FOLDER OPTION) click your (Dont show hidden files,folder) or drivers tooooo
(Show hidden files and drivers)
to see data app r other folders

[wezz69]

Make sure when you are looking for the path for your firmware files that you have clicked "show hidden files and folders" in control panel

If you have trouble finding the folder on Windows 7, type %appdata% inside the search bar then proceed to \Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
