Does backup with iTunes include game data?

I have a iPod Touch 3G that I need to restore. If I backup using iTunes, does this include my saved game data (ie. all my unlocked levels on Angry Birds)?

If the app is turned on in settings,

Turn on switch for any app you want data saved.

When finished you will set up as new iPad with this backup.

Yes, if that new data hasn't been backed up yet.

WiFi sync with iTunes? App data sync'ed?

Hi there,
Is there a way to wirelessly sync an iPhone with iTunes? Also, does syncing with iTunes sync program-specific data as well? Just want to make sure I don't loose data when / if I have a problem with the iPhone.
Justin

No, syncing with iTunes is via USB/dock cable only.
When you sync with iTunes, the 3rd party app data is backed up, along with many other things (but not the apps themselves, music, etc., since those are part of the iTunes Library).

Does syncing apps to itunes save game data

I want to know if I sync my apps to iTunes (which I do) does it save my game data/levels/files.
I recently had to restore my iPod Touch 4g and when I got my apps back from iTunes my game files were saved but they were old versions. I synced to iTunes just the day before I had to restore. But my game levels were that of 1 week ago. So how do I sync my game levels so that if I ever have to restore again I will have my levels. Thanks.

App data and settings are part of the backup. But, as every backup replaces the old one, you'll have to include your backup folder in your computer backup routine, to be sure to have several backups to go back.
Only if you use a backup to restore from, iTunes will create a new one and mark the old one with a time stamp.
Check this article for more info and about details where the backup folder is stored for your OS:

Why can't i backup with iTunes 11

I am trying to backup with my Imac 27" running Lion, but I can't find any devices to back my Itunes library to. I want to back up using my DVD +R-DL disks. Am I doing something wrong? (Just in case, I'm upgrading right now to Mountain Lion and will try again.)
Thanks,
Bob
p.s. running with Itunes 11.0.1 on my desktop.

This update is terrible; consider yourself lucky if you can't download it. I wish I read all of the complaints before installling. Without Steve Jobs, Apple's reign is over. It's just been one crappy decision after the other. For Christmas I'm buying different devices.

Very slow CD import (and Backup) with itunes using Windows 7

I just got a new HP Pavilion Windows 7. It takes hours to import a CD thru itunes - seconds thru any other software. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes (all components) multiple times. Apple phone support was no help. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you

It's probably something else entirely, but just check under *Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings* that you don't have a tick in the box marked *Use error correction when reading Audio CDs*.

*Fast backup for iTunes library (Windows Only)*
Grab SyncToy 2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time. And if your media is all organised below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes.

Error While Doing Backup with SuperDuper

I bought a new hard drive and was atempting to do a backup with SuperDuper and got these messages:
WARNING: Caught I/O exception(5): Input/output error

Can anyone help me resolve this error? I used Disk Utility before SuperDuper and that backup also failed.
Message was edited by: ImaVeggie

I was trying to create a bootable backup to an external USB drive prior to installing my new internal hard drive. I simply deleted the LAME Framework folder that was giving the error and was able to complete the process. I think that had something to do with MP3 encoding, converting. Hopefully not in relation to iTunes. Anyone know?

IPad backup with iTunes 12.1.2

After updating to OS X 10.10.3 and iTunes 12.1.2:
Local backup of iPad in iTunes on Mac stops all the time on time-out. (wire connected)
Sync and backup to iCloud works fine.
Anybody else encountered this and found a solution?

Check that you have the latest version of QuickTime (7.7.6) installed
Try varying the Play Audio Using setting in Edit > Preferences > Advanced (you'll need to restart iTunes for changes to take effect). Most users experiencing playback issues who've found that this resolves the issue have reported that setting this to Direct Sound works.
If neither of these produce improvement (and assuming you're running a 64-bit edition of Windows) try installing this alternative version of iTunes:
iTunes 12.1.2 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
The "for older video cards" label is somewhat misleading; as with the previous 12.1 and 12.1.1 releases this provides a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installed, the same as all "64 bit" versions of iTunes prior to 12.1. As well as video card incompatibility this version may address issues with playback as well as integration with third party tools.
For the third option, see also turingtest2's user tip on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps that may be necessary to completely remove all components of iTunes prior to re-installing.

I am having alot of problems with itunes, including a "connection timed out" error CONSTANTLY. Any suggestions?

My iTunes has always been a huge pain no matter what ive done. It runs slowly in general, freezes up every now and then, and when trying to restore my iPod touch 4g, i need to download a software update, which is impossible, due to the fact that every time i try i get a "Network connection timed out" message. I have also had the issue of my account locking me out twice now in a very short period of time, and i have no idea why. It says for security reasons, but ive changed passwords and everything.
I would like to know if an update is comming soon to make things smoother, because ive long since lost patience with iTunes.

If you are getting a network timeout error when downloading an iOS update then try temporarily turning off all your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.
In terms of whether an update is coming, we are just fellow users on here so we won't know when the next update might be, and what might or might not be in it.

No Backup with iTunes Possible

iTunes says anytime "no backup session ". I have buy a new usb-cable(orginal Apple). I have all tipps in Apple support followed. NO success. My system what running are on my pc is win7 64bit.
In one tip of Apple support is sayed that i should deleted the "Lockdown-Folder". I have search for this on my system but i cant find it.
Sorry for any spelling errors, but im a german.

Answer is no.
If you want the iCloud backup you have to have n internet connection, thus WiFi.
The not working WiFi has happened with quite a number of users.
It is not exactly clear what is the cause but there are suggestions to clear it up:
Some people have had success by removing an apostrophe from the iPhone name. If your iPhone is called something like “John’s iPhone” then this might work. Go to Settings > General > About > Name and change it to something with no apostrophe.
Some people have reported success by putting the iPhone into Airplane mode and then going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings, but the problem may return.
You could also try going to Settings > Control Center and disable Access on Lock Screen then turn your iPhone off and on again.
Make sure that your router firmware is up to date.
Try backing up your iPhone and then restoring it. Check how to factory reset an iPhone for details.
If nothing is working for you, try contacting Apple or take your iPhone into an Apple Store.
Succes, Lex

Help with saving FarmVille game data...

Ok, I need a bit of help...
I have an issue with saving data from a facebook game, FarmVille.
On my old computer which was running Windows XP when playing FarmVille the game only ever used to reload when it was updated. If I quit the game then went back in and it appeared to be loading the content from some saved data as it would load straight away compared with the 5 minutes it took when ever the game was updated.
I have now bought a new computer running Windows 7 and when I play FarmVille it now wants to reload from scratch each time I go into the game and it is sucking up my broadband usage really quick by doing this.
I have been trying to play around with different settings to see if I can get flash player to save the data but nothing seems to work. I am now starting to think it may not be flash player that is the problem.
If anyone knows how to fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I am using IE9 but I do not have that setting set and I hardly ever delete all my history etc.
I have also just tried playing on my partners apple which I dont know much about except that it is about 5 years old. Anyway the apple is doing the same thing that this new computer is doing... hmmm.

Please HELP! My kid wiped my iPhone5 and I need to get my photos and videos off it! I have no backup with iTunes :(( Is there a way to scan the device manually?

hi,
New to this, so go easy on me. I recently got my first iDevice - an iPhone 5. I've used it for a month now and I have to say I love it.
But, I gave it to my kid this morning to look at. It was locked, so I assumed it was safe. WRONG. 5 mins later, I returned to him and my lovely iPhone5 was at the setup /pick your language screen! Looks like he entered the password incorrectly too many times and wiped it.
Now - I thought it would be fairly easy to recover the data and the apps - but it turns out this is not the case. I was never prompted to install iTunes and sync the device - not in the manual, not on the device when setting it up - so how was I to know that that would be my backup. I checked iCloud at a suggestion of an IT pal - nothing there, despite knowing that I had a Photo stream enabled. I may have disabled it only recently, but not sure if I can manually turn it on again?
Anyway - is there a way to manually scan my device and grab my all important photos and videos?
Cheers for any suggestions!

Hi Michela27,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you have content on your iPhone that isn't on your computer, the best thing is to use the advice in this article to transfer it to your new computer before setting up sync:
