Saved game data after restore

My iPhone 4 was in the middle of updating to the latest software however halfway through the phone crashed and it went into recovery mode so I had to restore to factory settings. I used the latest backup to restore from like I did when I was moving from my iPhone 3G to iPhone 4 and all the saved game data was moved from one phone to the other. However, after this restore only some games have the saved data. It appears to be the games bought on my iPhone 4 have all the data intact but the ones I bought on iPhone 3G have all started from new.
Any ideas on how I can get back the saved games?

I got an error when trying to update to iOS 4.0.2 and had to restore from my wife's PC.
All my saved game date was no longer there when I re-synced to my PC.
This is annoying.
Anyone got a solution for easily and reliably backing up and saving "saved game" data. This is going to be a real problem for Apple, because how can I have the confidence to start on a game which has a long campaign, when I can't be confident that my saved game progress can't be lost?

How can I restore single saved game data?

So I recently updated Infinity Blade 2 with the new update that just came out. However, this wiped my saved game.
However, my phone does iCloud backups, and I noticed that the saved game data was backed up previously.
Is there a way for me to restore the game and get my saved game back? I can see the saves but I don't know how to get them back!

I don't know if Macroplant's iExplorer application would help here, but I've posted details on how to back up and restore individual game data (achievements, scores, etc.) for future reference.

Updating iPod Touch Software Version and Apps saved game data

When I transfer my apps from iPod touch to iTunes will it also moved the saved game data like in Zombie Cafe, Amateur Surgeon 2 so on and so fort? Because I want to update my software version...

No. Transferring the app to the computer only transfers the app itself. not app data. App dat is stored in the iPod backup that iTunes makes as the first step of the a sync and of an update. Therefore, I would do one last sync of the iPod before restoring and ensure that the backup gets made. You can check by going to the Devices tab in iTunes' Preferences and looking at the date of the backup. Also, make sure your apps are in your iTunes library since the apps themselves are not in the backup but are synced to the iPod at the end of the update.

I have lost all my notes data after restore. Anyone know how to retrieve notes after restore?

I have lost all my notes data after restore. Anyone know how to retrieve notes after restore?
I havent' took any backup of my notes in icloud. The moment I enter the password after restore my notes will be empty. The only option to get notes back is that after restore skip entering icloud password. But any time I enter icloud password anywhere again my notes will be empty. I have huge data saved in my notes. Apple need to look into this issues very seriously. This is the 5th time I restoring my iphone today just to get my note back.

I have the issue with losing all my notes and I don't even know why. I can't remember changing any email account info. What happened to them?

Please Help!

Reverting to saved game data?

I'm using an iPhone 5S, version 7.1.1. I am playing the game Dragons: Rise of Berk and spent my in game currency on something and changed my mind. I used iExplorer to save my game data a couple days ago. Can I just load that in and go back to the state of my game from a couple days ago? Do I just replace the game's Documents folder on my phone with the saved one from my computer? Do I risk doing any damage to my game (I still want to be able to play it! ;-)) or my phone itself?

How can I transfer saved games data (smurf, bakery story, etc) from iPhone 3GS to iPad mini retina?

How can I transfer saved games data (smurf, bakery story, etc) from iPhone 3GS to iPad mini retina? I have a reached in a very high levels at all these games I choose iPad for continuing played all my saved games in the bigger screen of iPad. Please send step by step the way I can transfer them at the levels I have reached.

I have installed all the games from my iPhone 3GS at my iPad mini retina throw iCloud. I did what iTunes suggest but when I open the game start from the beginning. For example all the games of team lava company like farm story 2 bakery home design etc I have register and I took storm ID and I have reached in a big level that some times cost money to change level or to buy gems to continue the games.
I am very angry because before I bought this iPad they told me that I could played my games in a big screen of iPad and this as I can see is nit possible. Apple send me details that didn't help me and everything suggest me is not working.
I fell stupid because I spend my money in an apple product that isn't what I want and the information I have throw apple are fake

ITunes 9 - Home Sharing Settings and Saved Game Data?

The new "Home Sharing Settings" feature to automatically transfer applications from one home computer to another is great. However, it seems like there is a huge omission with this feature if you can't transfer your game settings and saved data when you use this option as a way to change computers to sync an iTouch or iPhone.
Here's my scenario: originally had iTunes on a Windows PC to purchase and sync up my iTouch. Recently bought another iMac and want to use it as my "master" computer to sync up my iTouch. Used the Home Sharing Settings feature to quickly copy all of my songs (with ratings) and apps from the PC to the Mac. Everything great so far.
Purchased a few more apps in the iTunes store on the iMac. Plugged in the iTouch to copy the new apps, but of course it wants to delete everything and start over (to be expected I guess). But with that I assume all of my saved game data in my 50+ apps will be lost!
Any suggestions?

UPDATE: I've now authorized my laptop with my fiance's itunes account and my personal iTunes account, this is key.
I'm now able to transfer songs from either her laptop or my iMac (where my music is stored for now) as long as the current logged-in Home Sharing account is active. So it's basically like logging into an ftp server, only one connection allowed at a time.
So just turn off Home Sharing and then turn it back on again, re-enter the other systems iTunes account info and there you go, you can transfer from that one now. Of course this would be simpler if you were just merging two computers/accounts instead of adding in a 3rd laptop like my experiment. You should just have to make sure all computers involved (up to 5) are authorized for all the iTunes accounts involved.
And yes using the settings button with in the home sharing window, you should be able to automatically sync any new purchases from the current shared account, music, movies, apps, etc.

All iPad photos saved locally lost after restore

Hi,
My (original v1) iPad started acting up so I decided to do a full restore via iTunes. Before proceeding I backed up / synced to my Macbook Pro. After restore iPad was wiped as expected, I then did a restore from my last iTunes backup. It came up with a "Backup corrupted or wrong version" but then proceeded to restore anyway, so all music, apps etc. were restored successfully.
However all Photos I saved locally on the iPad by holding down / Save Photo or doing Home / Lock button frame grabs have disappeared. I can't seem to find any specific option within iTunes that refer to these pictures. Photostream was disabled.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Her Apple ID and iCloud ID got out of sync due to an email change.
Was the original problem that her device was signed into an old iCloud ID that had since been updated to a new email address, and as a result you were unable to access (sync) that data in the existing account?

Lost saved game, can i restore ?

Hi,
About a week ago, i plugged my ipod in my computer to charge it up. I didn't have access to internet. Of course, itunes wanted me to do the authorize thing ( it does so every time i plug it in, shouldn't it know ? i am always on the same PC !) since i didnt have internet, it couldn't authorize and so all my apps were deleted.....
while at my friend's, i had access to internet and reinstalled my Final Fantasy tactics app.
Afterwards, when i had access to internet at home, it put all the apps back, but i lost my Final Fantasy Tactics saved file..... i had enough hours put in, that i dont feel like starting over and i paid 18$ for that app !!
Is there anyway to restore my saved game ? is there anyway to prevent Itunes from deleting all my apps when i don't have access to internet ?
i hope so, if not i'm a very unhappy 450$ poorer customer.....
Thank you
Lespoils

You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If you made a backup you can restore from backup and iPod will be like it was when the backup was made. To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore via iTunes all the apps have to be in the iTunes library for the app data to have a place to go.
An iPod can only sync to one iTunes library. If you sync to another library/computer the iPod will be erased and its contents replaced with what is in the iTunes library. To prevent automatic syncing when you connect go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods....".

Would I be able to access all of my photos and app/game data after I erase all content and settings from my iPod through iCloud?

My iPod Touch 5th Gen. isn't syncing to my computer and I've alread backed it up to iCloud plenty of times. So my question is if I erase EVERYTHING back to factory settings and set it back up as a new iPod can i reaccess all of my photos and app/game data?

If you restore from iCloud backup all your photos in your Camera Roll album and all your iTunes purchases that were on the iPod will be restored. Photos that were synced to the iPod and non-iTunes purchases like music ripped from CDs will not be restored.

Many apps dont run properly on iOS 5 and I have lost some saved game data.

After upgrading to iOS 5, some of the games( ice age: dawn of the dinosaurs(chillingo inc.), Icy Escort(Donut games)) doent run properly. In ice age, sometimes the sondtrack doesnt run properly, it gets stuck in the middle, and starts repeating itself again and again after very short periods and in icy escort, sometimes there is stange flashing. Another game, Kick buttowski: Loco Launcho(disney mobile), my whole save data got erased. I also use a iPhone and i had downloaded ice age for iPhone, later put it inti my iPad 2. Therefore, its only for iPhone. Other apps are universal. I have also updated my iphone to iOS 5 but restored it from my iPad backup. In iPhone, Ice age runs fine but Kick buttowski save data is also erased. I updated my iPhone after updating my iPad. Please help.

Agreed! This bug with the ringtone delay (№4.1) is really annoying

Why do I have 310MB of "other data" after restoring as new?

I just restored my device as new in an attempt to get rid of all the "other" data that was on my phone. After doing so, there is still 310MB on my phone. What is this and why do I have it? I used iExplorer and even a data recovery software that lets you preview data and neither showed any data. Any help?

OmniDiskSweeper and Grand perspective do not delete files. They simply are tools to show what you have on your MBA and you have to take action if you want to delete data or transfer the data to an external HDD.
The title OTHER is not very descriptive and some people get nervous as a result. One should not focus on the title of the category, but the actual files that may be included by the OSX in that category. Based on your last post, the game that you deleted was vied by the OSX as an OTHER file.
Ciao.

You need to have the below updates done on the affected PC.

"KeepAliveTimeout"=300000 (decimal)

Transferring saved game data iPhone to iPad

I browsed around to see if this has been asked, but a lot of the threads were older and didn't pertain to my devices.
I have an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2 both not jail-broken. I had a game called My Town 2 on both that I could use back and forth whenever I wanted to, and it let me play the exact same game without starting a new one on the other. Which was nice to do when I was out and about, since my iPad only connects with a wifi connection.
Yesterday I idiotically deleted the game from the iPad, and when I went to re-install it, it started from scratch, I do however still have the same game and my progress on the iPhone.
I checked around to find ways to transfer the game and its data from the iPhone to iPad. So far iExplorer didn't work, ifunbox seems easier to navigate but I don't know what to look for or where to save it. Phone Disk needs to be purchased and iTunes requires you to restore. There's got to be a way right?
Any help would greatly be appreciated.

If the game was syncing your progress between devices, it should continue to do so once you have the game properly installed and registered on your iPad again. You might need to "log in" or otherwise let the game's server know that it's you and your account on that device.
You might care to contact the developer of the game for advice. I doubt your the first one of their customers to encounter this issue.
