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.

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

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.

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.

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?

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 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.

How can I play app games for iPhone and iPad on my iMac

Is it possible to play app-games made for iPhone and iPad on my iMac

The iPhone and iPad run iOS and the Mac runs OS X.
Apps written for iOS will not run on Mac.
Only if the developer has written a version for OS X will it run on the Mac and you would have to buy and install that version of the Mac.

Will I lost my saved games in iphone if i sync transfer purchases in my another laptop ?

So i lost my laptop and i lost my files , itunes . When i got a new laptop , i transfer purchases from my iphone to the new laptop . I was thinking whether i should sync my iphone as im afraid i would lost my saved games . is it okay for me to sync ?

Now restore from backup and thus it will be tied to new computer.

I have an Ipod Touch and I'm trying to figure out if i should be downloading app games for iphone or ipad because i dont see ipod touch anywhere??

I have an ipod touch and when i went to the itunes store to download apps for it, they only have iphone or ipad listed for anything..is there one of those i should be using for ipod touch??

Iphone apps would be where you would find ipod compatible apps. Under the product description it will tell you what devies are compatible.

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

Saving Game Data

At the current moment, is there a way to transfer data on a game I have to another iPod touch/iPhone/iPad? For example, If I had unlocked the last level on Comet Racer, could I get a new iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad and keep that level unlocked on the new device? Whether I have to use a special app to save the data or via an internet website, I don't really care how.

Restore your new iPod/iPhone from the backup or your current iPod/iPhone.
With iPhone OS 2.0 and later, the backup saves App Store Application data (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).

If you upgrade or otherwise replace your device with a newer device, you may be able to restore the previous backup to the new device...You can upgrade one device with the backup from a different type of device; most settings will transfer to the new device.

Lost some app and game data when restoring iPad 1 backup to iPad 2

Very disappointingly, when I restored my iPad 1 backup to my iPad 2, I lost some but not all apps and games save data etc.
Some of that stuff took hours!
Any way of recovering it? Why would it affect some and not others, I wonder.

The same thing happened to me. All apps loaded (though I lost my folders), but not of the data. I was almost done with Angry Birds, and now I'm back at square one. ggrrrrr....

Transfering keyboard shortcuts from iPhone to iPad

I have an iPhone 4S with about 1k (no I'm not really exaggerating) keyboard shortcuts I've made since I got the phone a few months ago (any time I misspell something I make a keyboard shortcut, for example if I accidentally type "neighborhoo" and misstype the "d" I make a shortcut). I am thinking of buying an iPad 2 and would like to xfer all of them to the iPad 2 and not have to redo them all. Is this possible? I know I could restore the iPad with the iPhone backup but that seems weird considering that the iPhone has a bunch of stuff on it that wouldn't work on the iPad (like Omnifocus which isn't universal).

iPod Touch and iPhone apps will work on the iPad (assuming the the iPad is running the relevant OS needed for those apps) even if they are not universal apps, but they will only work in the iPhone native size. You will be able to enlarge the app on the screen by tapping on the 2X in the corner of the app but it will be pixelated and in lower resolution and it looks kind of crappy on the iPad screen. I hate the way that iPhone and iPod apps look on my iPad - but they will work.
When you restore one device from a backup of another device - you will restore the exact settings from the one device to the other. It will change your network settings, bookmarks, notes, calendars, Safari history, app data, app settings, email messages, camera roll and all of the data that the backup contains. Of course - if you sync all of that stuff and you want all of the same settings and all of that other stuff on all devices then you are OK.
If you restore the iPad from the backup of the phone and then backup the iPad again, it will save all of that app data and all of the settings in the iPad's backup.
