How to backup 3rd party apps data?

Hi All,
I have problem with backup 3rd party apps data, i was using iphone 3G start from version 2.2.0
I was purchased and free download some apps from itunes i.e: safe note, picture safe 2, IM+, skype and some apps can be allow keeping data or record.
But after i update to OS3.0, i found most of 3rd party apps data and setting was missing.
This really waste my time to manually write it down and key it back or setting back.
please Apple and apps provide company think about this problem. can just make it simple, when we doing backup, all apps data and record also can safe it. Then we not need keep doing double work.

If the the data is stored in the backup, it should restore to the iPad when you restore the backup. If that's not happening, sometimes it's becuase the data is stored on the app's server.
SInce you are not having any luck restoring the backup, I would do a Google search such as this one using thses parameters - without the quotes.

Personally, I do not trust any game that has in app purchases like these games have. It is my paranoid belief that the game developers do not want you to be able to restore your progress.

How can I restore 3rd party app data from my backup in the cloud

First a brief history. I use the iCloud to backup my iPad 2 and hardly ever synch it to itunes on my computer. I got the new iPad and restored the backup of my iPad 2 onto it. All was fine except that an issue I had on my iPad 2's Safari had transferred over to my new iPad. That's is for another discussion. Anyhow I went to the genius bar and they said to just setup my new iPad as a new device and then manually install everything back on it. Stuff like mail, contacts, etc, would be reloaded from the cloud. So I did and I noticed that one of my 3rd party apps, MadPad, had none of my saved data. Does anyone know of a way to restore 3rd party app data from the iCloud? Is there some sort of utility out there that would do this? I don't want to restore it from my previous iPad 2 backup because it will reintroduce the Safari problem back onto my new iPad.
Thanks!

Assuming that you even have a backup with the data in it, you have no choice but to use a backup in order to restore that data. That is the idea behind backing up to iCloud. If that is the only backup that you have - then that is the one that you have to use.
But if the backup is bad - or had corrupt data - then you will end up with the corrupt data again. You cannot selectively restore app data from a backup. you restore all settings and data - or nothing at all.

If you have 3rd party apps on a phone with 1.1.4, you must have a jailbroken phone. Discussion of those is heavily frowned on here. I recommend finding a forum that supports such phones.

How to backup third party apps

hello, i wanted to know if there is a way to backup your 3rd party apps (final cut, cs3, etc). and if there is, what the process?
thx

If the application is a simple one which doesn't require extra files in Application Support or special items in the System then it can simpy be copied to a CD or backup disk: on recopying it it simply won't have the preferences set.
However, where an application requires special files in the System you need to keep the original install disks. If you download an application from the internet you might be wise to keep the installer, if there is one. And always write down your registration codes somewhere.

What should be the setup if you want RFC rely on a 3rd party apps' data?

Is it possbile to maintain the master record like purchasing group, material group, purchasing org,etc.. by taking it from a 3rd party software? The client wants it that way so less work for the functional to do the configuration.
Is there a bapi that could get it from the 3rd party app other than accessing sAP tables directly?
Or should I create a function module that woould create purch_org/grp, matrl_code, gl_acct, wbs, etc?
The setup is: we have a .net web apps as frontend and rfc as backend. SAP has no data yet.. And their plan is to get the data from the 3rd party.

Hi,
I wont suggest to completely rely for all the database table on 3rd party system. For each & every validation, you need to call an RFC & check the 3rd party database tables & again send the results back to R/3.
Also for each database update, RFC's would be called. This would be time consuming & wont give a realtime interface if the network is not upto the requirement.
Best regards,

Can I move an iTunes library from Comp1 to Comp2 through Home Sharing? What happens with the first sync? What happens to 3rd party app data (specifically, game scores/levels)?

I need to move an iTunes library from Computer 1 to Computer 2. Can I do this through Home Sharing, by dragging and dropping library items from one to the other? The library consists of iTunes purchases, home shared items and music/movies from our personal collection. Both computers have had all the accounts authorized, so I don't anticipate an issue there. I'd like to do this so that my son's ipod is impacted as little as possible -- specifically, his game scores/levels and other 3rd party data remain intact after the 1st sync and the organization of his icons remain intact.
Is there a way to do this smoothly and easily, protecting his ipod data/organization?

Sorry, I obviously wasn't clear. If you replicate the library from Computer 1 to Computer 2 by copying it, then all will be well. I routinely sync my iPhone and iPad both at home and at work using a single library that I migrate between the two locations via an external drive which is kept up do date using SyncToy.
Backup the iPod touch on Computer 1.
Copy the entire iTunes folder from Computer 1 to Computer 2, replacing any existing iTunes folder on Computer 2.
Check that content is accessible in the migrated library. (Won't be a problem for a standard iTunes library where all the content is inside the iTunes Media folder which in turn is inside your iTunes folder).
Connect iPod touch to Computer 2.
Sync.
In the unlikely event that something goes wrong (it won't) then you can connect the device back to Computer 1 to restore it.
Note device backups are not stored within the iTunes library and stay on the machine on which they were created. It is theorectically possible to migrate them but there isn't really any point. Once you have synced the iPod with the copy of the library on Computer 2 then Computer 2 will make its own backup of the device.

How to uninstall 3rd party app from MacBook Pro?

Does anyone know how to uninstall a 3rd party application (RMSViewer) from MacBook Pro? The app doesn't work and I want to remove it from memory. I can't find an "uninstall" utility on my computer and the 3rd party software doesn't include an uninstall link.

Tap and old the app until it starts to wiggle. Tap the "x" that appears on the corner of the icon.
If that doesn't work, check Settings>General>Restrictions to see if removing apps is restricted.
You may also want to take a read through the manual:

How are the third party apps for the iPhone?

Being a long time Palm user, then moved to BlackBerry I watched the quality of third party apps really plummet due to a more restrictive development agreement.
Now considering an iPhone, I'm curious about how healthy the 3rd party app community is for iPhone, something I miss from my Palm days. From what I've heard, the development for iPhone applications is even more restrictive than for BlackBerries.
Anyone that wouldn't mind addressing one or all of these questions for me from their own experience, would be greatly appreciated.
1) Do you use third party applications on your iPhone, or do you find the native Apple software to be sufficient?
2) Are there alot of different choices for utilities, or do you find yourself pigeonholed to 1-2 programs.
3) Would you say that the third party apps are "mature" that is stable, follow similar flow/integration with the phone and designed in an intuitive way?
Again thanks for anyone that chooses to help me with this. I was really disappointed with the apps available for the Blackberry. At $15-$25 dollars each, I was usually let down by the quality and selection and overall experience.

The native software is excellent and I also have apps to fill in for things not available as part of the out of the box iPhone.
2) Are there alot of different choices for utilities, or do you find yourself pigeonholed to 1-2 programs.
If you go to the app store and browse, you'll find lots of different utilities. In some cases, there are a dozen different options that do the same basic thing and in other cases there are a couple.
3) Would you say that the third party apps are "mature" that is stable, follow similar flow/integration with the phone and designed in an intuitive way?
Some apps are well done and others aren't. Since they are developed independently, there is variability. The apps I use most frequently seem pretty stable. It all depends on your needs.

I wanted to know the safety of subscribing to 3rd party apps through the app store? i also wanted to know if we could use a iTunes gift card for the auto renewal subscriptions?

We wanted to subscribe to an app through the app store for our child. We just wanted to know how safe these 3rd party apps are with credit card information, because we dont want our information used in the wrong ways, or used for things other than the subscription. We also wanted to know if the subscriptions could be paid with itunes gift cards.

This link may help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4009 Also not the additional information link near the bottom.
Basically anything purchased "in app" is handled through your iTunes account.

Resolving how 3rd party apps show free space?

I've recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and am now just learning about "Local Backups" and how they work. This seems like a pretty neat feature and great extra data protection. However, I now have trouble with 3rd party apps that monitor and notify about free space. (ie iStat Menus, TechTool Pro, Disk Inventory X). As I said, I think this new feature is great for added data protection, but it seems it has a huge flaw if it is going to make all other applications show incorrect Used/Free space. In fact, since the Local Backup seems to use as much space as it can and will only free the space as needed, it seems every application or tool will show that the disk is always on the verge of being completely full. Has anyone found ways around this? Or are there any good apps that monitor and/or display free space (like iStat Menus) that can account for, or rather disregard, the space being used by Local Backup in the same way that the Finder window seems to? I hope that in future OS updates, Apple does something about this like making the space used by Local Backup hidden in some way.

Sorry, you didn't get my point:
'Unintentional' means accidentally. I always wonder how people can delete files 'accidentally', requiring trashing them and then, in a second step, empty the trash.
I do not empty my trash before having backed up, as I was pointing out. If I did, it would not be 'unintentionally'. It would be intentionally. And I should get fired. Unless I can have the backup drive there within 40 minutes.
My point is, YOU're heading to work in the morning, not having backed up for the past 2 weeks to the external disk since your backup is always with you on your 4 months old Mac, still under warranty and unlikely to break anyway. Crossing the street from the parking lot, you need to jump to avoid some crazy driver. You make it, only your laptop slips from under your arm, drops onto the tar, and worse, before you can grab it, that bus is rolling over it. The HDD/SSD/whatever is history, and so is your work and some other important coroprate docs worth 2 weeks. Will you continue to walk into the office to resign, or will you ask the bus driver to run you over as well, please?
My view is unchanged.
Can we stop this here, please? My data is safe, and yours I've written off a while ago.

How to enable iCloud Keychain for 3rd party apps?

I came across iCloud Keychain, which if enabled, lets you backup keychain passwords and restore on other iOS devices. Also read that 3rd party apps can integerate iCloud Keychain to their apps in order to ensure that the app's keychain items are backed up to iCloud Keychain. Would like to know more on what 3rd party apps can do with iCloud keychain.
Even Appls's FAQ says so:
Does iCloud Keychain work with third-party apps? Yes. Developers can update their apps to work with iCloud Keychain. Passwords saved by those apps are then kept up to date on all devices that use the app and running iOS 7.0.3 or later or OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later.
I couldn't really find implementation details. Please help.

All 3rd party apps Crash - Already Restored FIVE Times to date - Apple fix?

Since the 2.0 update my apps have had constant crashing issues. Usually after opening 8 or so apps in a row (very easy to do when downloading and testing many apps) ... Powering down and powering back up usually helped/fixed the issue, if temporarily.
Now, since 2.0.1 I've had times when one app will crash to the home screen, and from that point on ALL 3rd party apps immediately crash. Powering down the iPod, and powering back up does not fix the problem. Resetting the ipod (Sleep and Home buttons held) does not help either. I've also tried just Syncing the ipod, but this, alas, does nothing to help.
When it's come to this in the past I've had to do a complete iPod restore, which if it weren't just for the time taken restoring, the time taken re-arranging the icons/screens puts the process into the realm of a major pain. But having a way to assign apps to a particular screen on the ipod/iphone within iTunes is a topic for another thread.
Is there a way around this (crashing issue) that I'm just not seeing?
I'm tired of being and eff-ing guinea pig; this is not why I'm an apple user, this is one of the reasons I make fun of Windows people and get them to switch TO apple.

Well, now it's official, thanks to 3rd party apps and/or faulty system software my iPod is Dead.
When I created this thread I was having all 3rd party apps crash constantly, and instantly upon launch. The myriad of methods used to recover it to working order failed. I decided to do a Restore and use the last successful backup. It got to about the 95% mark on the restore and hung for 2 hours. The exact same place for 2 hours.
Not having the ability or patience to wait for my iPod to get done tying up my computer, I reset it. Now, all I've got is a $299.99 Paperweight that constantly displays a nice and shiny apple logo on it's screen.
An attempt to restore it to factory settings only gave me an error dialogue box:
The iPod "Kuhnaydeein's iPod" could not be restored.
An unknown error occurred (0xE8000035).
Now what am I supposed to do? I don't live near an Apple Store, the only place that sells apple merch is the store where I work, in the department I work. I know our policy on taking back/exchanging iPods.
What I've failed to mention is how I'm EVER going to sell one of these to someone if there's a chance they'll just be getting the same FAULTY Hardware/Software I'm now stuck with? Is Apple going to come to the rescue, read this post and replace my iPod? I sincerely hope they read this, because they don't give the slightest hint at any Direct Email addresses on the Apple.com website. (What's with that anyway?)
So what do I do now? RESTORING IS NOT AN OPTION.

Query: Selective Transferring of old data (3rd party app) from old iPhone

Hello all.
I am collecting my new iPhone 3GS tomorrow
(and) I want only to add some, and not all the 3rd party apps (from App Store) that was with my old iPhone, in particular, Notes+
I know if before I perform a software restore or upgrade, iTunes will perform a back up of the phone, and if I insert a new iPhone, and choose the same name, e.g. "howwow iPhone", it will restore all the apps and data into the new phone.
But if I treat this new 3GS phone as a new phone, e.g. I name it "My 3GS iPhone" and add the Notes+ app, will all the data inside be copied into the new phone?
My main 2 aims are to only add some apps I need (like Notes+) to the new phone and still able to keep the data/notes in it, without re-adding manually.
Thanks and cheers

There is no way to selectively restore certain data from the backup to the new iPhone - it's all or none. If you set it up as a new phone, none of the old data will be transferred. Alternatively, you could set it up from the backup, then delete all of the unwanted stuff.

How can I forward an SMS as an email , i have doing this daily on 9900, surprised to miss this on Q10, i am ready to buy an 3rd party app also, if required, it is must for me.

1. when i read an sms, there is option to forward as email in 9900.
Since i am using Q10, i can not do this.
I need this immediately.
Anybody can help??
I am ready to buy any 3rd party app also, if it can provide this without slowing down the performance.
2. Further, i can not sms from contacts screen. There is no option to sms , when i select a contact. I have to go to SMS and there type contact name , how can i enable this?
3. If i receive a call and i want to send sms to the person, i can not tap on called no and choose and option to sms him. I have to copy that number, go to SMS app and use that no to sms. If i am in a meeting , it is long process and kill focus in meeting. In android, there is one swipe to reject call and send an sms that i am in meeting. Can we achieve this basic features in Q10..

I can forward a SMS as an email on my Q10.
open the SMS and hold down on the text, this opens a side menu with the "share" icon on it (like a Y),
Then you can select how you want to share, eg SMS, Email BBM etc.
Hope this helps?

I recently purchased a 4S. I now have 2 files in my iCloud both with my name. One from my 3gs and one from my 4S. The problem is the data history of all my games and 3rd party apps did not transfer over to my 4S. Is there a way to merge the two in icloud?

I backed up my 3gs to the iCloud and when I synced my 4S, it did not transfer my game histories or my 3rd party app histories. When I look at my iCloud storage, it shows both phones under the same name. Is there a way to merge them together in iCloud? I tried adding the account to my 4S but since they are both named the same, it says I already have that account added! Help!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage......
