Do my files within apps get backed up?

Specifically I have all my lecture notes on "Note taker HD" and it would be dissasterous for me to loose them so if i wipe my ipad and then restore from backup will those files be on there (and not just the app)? thanks

Yes - if you restore from the backup the data should be in the backup. If the notes are that important, you should backup the iPad every day .... If you use the app every day that is. Make sure your backup is always current.
If you depend upon an app that heavily, you should always read all of the information that is available so that you know what the app does and does not do. According to this text which I copied from the app description page in iTunes, it also offers "backup to a single file for off iPad storage". That sounds to me like you can store the notes/app data on your computer as well.
If the app works with file sharing - which it probably does - you can transfer the files to iTunes and then to your computer for safe keeping as well.
You can use "Open In" in other apps or iTunes to send PDF files to Note Taker HD for annotation.
Other features include:
- Support for the retina display on new iPads
- Pages organized into documents and folders
- Typed blocks of text with optional borders
- 60+ highly customizable shapes
- Insert and crop images from Photo Albums, Pasteboard, or the iPad camera
- Custom backgrounds from images or PDF pages
- Free templates and clip art on the support web site
- VGA/HDMI/AirPlay support with zoom and pan
- Wrist guard to avoid inadvertent touches
- Layout variations better suited to some left-handed users
- Optional fields in output footers like in a word processor
- Extensive built-in help
- Smooth and crisp ink on screen and in PDF output
- Share editable copies of your documents with others
- Backup to a single file for off-iPad storage
- Password protected folders
- Support for the iOS Data Protection API
- Full-screen preview mode
- Copy/Cut/Paste between pages
BTW ... Just so that you know - the app itself is not contained in the backup. If you are using iTunes, you would have to sync the app back to the iPad or download it again from the App Store in the event of some disaster with the iPad. The app data is stored in the backup but not the app itself.

Print RTF file within app

Hi
Is it possible to print an rtf file from within java app without actually viewing the file on screen? I don`t want to display the file in a jtextpane or jeditorpane. Simply want to print the file like you can with a straight text file.
Or, is there are a command line switch to print a rtf file? through ms word?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Kelly

printing RTF files from java is amazingly hard. if not impossible.
(just what you wanted to hear)
basically, rtf support in java is pathetic.
in my case, i had to create an actual RTF file in ms word and save it.
i then opened it in notepad so that i could see all the control codes.
then i cut and pasted each section of the document template so that each bit was a string constant in java. the bits that i wanted to add i generated in code the normal way.
then i stuck all the bits back together again in one string and sent that off to a data stream. (to answer your question, it never went to the screen, just to the data stream)
its a bloody stupid way of doing rtf, but it was the only way to get it to work without having to go through and figure and implement out all the rtf codes yourself.

Are within-app downloads backed up in iTunes

Certain apps need extra files to be downloaded, certain apps allow purchases within them. Are these files backed-up in iTunes while syncing?

When you drop a pin in the iPhone Maps app, you can then tap the blue arrow at the right end of the pin's label which gives you the option to save to your map bookmarks. Selecting that option will also allow you to rename the bookmark to something useful to you. The iTunes iPhone backup includes Map bookmarks, recent searches, and the current location displayed in Maps.
For details about the Maps app, see chapter 15 of iPhone iOS4 User Guide
For details about the iTunes iPhone backup, see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

I just bought a iTunes card and its not accepting it. It already sent it to the support team and they said they were going to get back to my within 24 hours and i am trying to buy a program in the app store for work. How can I expedite this process?

Has it been 24 hours?
I take it this was a gift card. iTunes Store: Invalid, Inactive, or Illegible codes http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292 - gift cards
I don't know if this provides an alternative means: https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'iTunes' in the first column; 'iTunes Store' in the second column
If you are really desperate you could buy the app yourself, then request reimbursement.

Why are my log files not getting backed up?

I just tried to get some files from ~/Library/Logs but found that the entire Logs directory was not on Time Machine - looks like every thing else in ~/Library was there. I checked the exclusion list and it was not on there.
I know that some ~/Library stuff gets backed up because I was recently able to find and restore some iCal events from about 4 months ago.
Anybody know what gives? Is there any way to change this?
Thx

I checked and both /Library/Logs and ~/Library/Logs are on the exclusion list - now why doesn't Apple's help file discuss that?
Now, that's funny! Apple's Help, while improved over the last few releases, is nowhere near complete. That's why some occasional tips turned into my 120+ page website, mostly about Time Machine, and several others have written entire books about OSX.
By all means, tell them about it at: http://www.apple.com/feedback/timemachine.html
Maybe if enough of us do that, they'll reconsider.
My problem - as a software tester, I occasionally would like to ensure that logs for a particular app stay around during my test period - in this case, the app under test did an archive, but kept only the previous 5 logs as backups (and without a setting I had access to) - and, of course, I was looking for an earlier log.
So, is there any way to tell Time Machine at the start of my testing period to save logs in specific ~/Librarary/Log subdirectory and then at the end of my testing period, tell TIme Machine to stop backing them up?
Not directly, other than periodically copying them somewhere else. But the schedule and handling of the "rotation" of some can be altered, if you're comfortable with UNIX and Terminal. See the MAN pages for newsyslog and newsyslog.conf.

How do I get back my files and setting after re-installing Lion?

After I deleted the wrong file, I had to re-install Lion. After I went through the setup none of my file were on the desktop and the settings had all defaulted. After I looked under the User folder, I noticed there are 2 different users listed, ajoep3 and my_full_name.my_full_name contains all the files, and prseumably setting that I had before the re-install.
How do I get those back? It won't allow me sign in under any other login.

I have a backup, through Time Machine, but I didn't use that. I had files that weren't backed up on Time Machine, so I re-installed Lion from the App store. I hoped it would just replace the system files I had deleted. It's hard to explain, but the user names, ajoep3 and my_full_name are tied together.
When I open the users folder it shows, ajoep with a house next to it, my_full_name and Shared. When I log in or out it only shows ajoep3. my_full_name isn't list in the system preferences>>users or any where else.

Friend deleted app (my disk for iphone) and need to get back data from my icloud backup...need help!

     I had this app called my disk (app store name is: Lock photo+video safe - secure folder manager to protect private photos vault & hide secret picture file privacy) This app lets me have two passwords with different pictures and videos in each of them. It's a really great app.
     My friend deleted the app by "accident" and I need to get the app back with all my data. I have a backup of the app on my icloud backup that was taken place two months ago (around same time the app was deleted). It shows up in the cloud saying I have 4gb worth of that app in the cloud. I restore my phone back to that backup but the app data is not there. I wasn't sure if I had to wait till my iphone backs up everything (like music and pictures for example) for it to show up but as soon as the app downloaded I opened it hapilly knowing I have my data back but unfortunately it was not there. In the app itself, there's an option to backup from the cloud but it just brings up this window that says you can back up from the cloud (doesn't have a place to hit that says restore or anything).
     Is there something I am doing wrong? Can anyone help me? I really need that app data back because I have pictures of memories with friends and family inside that app that I do not have anywhere else. Once i get the back back ill be sure to save the photos onto my computer just incase anything goes wrong again.
Thanks everyone for the help!

fwiw
It seems that in a case like this you'd need to reset the device to factory settings and then restore from iCloud backup.
Sadly the reset to factory settings could cause more trouble than its worth.
Apple's iCloud backup, could, but does not let the user restore one app or its data.
You'll also find that even though that App's data is in the cloud, you as its owner do not have access to it.
Hope it helps/

When adding ringtones (created by ringtone app) they show in music tab nor tones. the file type in 'get info' is 'ringtone'. Why is this?

When adding ringtones (created by ringtone app) they show in music tab nor tones. the file type in 'get info' is 'ringtone'. Why dont they display in the 'tones' tab in itunes? How can I get them to display under 'tones' not 'music'.

Well, I tried rebuilding the Launch services with the command listed but still no luck. After having no luck with that and deleting caches, etc....I also, went to my home (user) directory and in Preferences, I deleted the com.apple.launchservices.plist file. I restarted and checked and still the same result.
Also, I want to emphasize again that the file type I am discussing DOES actually launch with the correct application. (Cubase files in my example).
But it is just annoying that ALL of my Cubase files display the Pro Tools application icon, and in Get Info they are listed to open with Pro Tools. But they actually do launch Cubase if double clicked.
And one other VITAL note....if I open Get Info for one of these files, and change the Open With from Pro Tools to Cubase....then that choice DOES "stick" and retain. (if I "don't" also click Change All)
It's only when I click "Change All" that it DOESN'T stick and the list selection jumps back to Pro Tools. I hope that may offer some clarity.
Thanks for the tips but I am still back at square one.

When I purchased my Mac six months ago, I transferred my Quicken data to Quicken Essentials which has worked well for me until yesterday. Now Quicken Essentials will not open the data file. What happened? How do I get back in?

When I purchased my Mac six months ago, I transferred my Quicken files to Quicken Essentials. That worked fine until yesterday. Now I'm getting messages that there is not application to open the files, or that it just plain can't open the file. What gives here? What happened? How can I get back in?

Launch the Quicken application and try to open the file from there, if you haven't already. If that fails, and a simple restart of the computer doesn't help, try reinstalling the application. If that doesn't cure the problem, I would suggest you take this up in the Quicken Community:
https://qlc.intuit.com/app/full_page
or with Quicken support:
https://quicken.custhelp.com/app/contact/plvl1/win
You'll be most likely to get further help with your issue there.

I accidently closed my window with all my app tabs, now the only window that opens was a 2nd one I had open. How do I get back all my app tabs from the previous window, and why didn't it give me the usual warning you are closing more than one tab?

Then the (App) tabs from that window are lost unless you can restore an older copy of the sessionstore.js file (Time Machine?) that has that lost window.
