Hi SandeepPinjerla,

The backups are stored in:

~/Library/Application Support/Sony Ericsson Bridge for Mac/Backups

If you don't find it you can try opening the terminal and enter

cd ~/Library/"Application Support"/"Sony Ericsson Bridge for Mac"/Backups

Make sure you have quotation marks around Application Support and Sony Ericsson Bridge for Mac

then enter: "open ."

without the quotation marks.

That should open the folder with the backups. (see images below)

Best Regards,

I cannot find any folder of Sony Bridge for mac in the library.How to access my backup files?

Hi User_C3!

This is the location for the backup folder.

First you have to enter in the terminal:

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES

killall Finder

Then you can see the folder

"Your name"->Library->Application Support->Sony Ericsson Bridge for Mac->Backups

If you don't find it please contact me again.

To hide the files again enter

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO

If you don't find it please contact me again.

Best regards

Hello Fredrik_L,

I am in desperate need of your help. My professional phone has been lost and I am trying to access the backup I have made a few months ago. Unfortunately, without the phone the sony bridge does not discover the backup. Thus, I have followed your guidelines to access the contacts contents alternatively. Even after asking the terminal to discover all files, there is still no sony contents folders in the library. What am I supposed to do in this case please?

Thanks in advance,
