What happens to the apps' data, if they were restored to a new device, but apps never get installed?

This is a super easy scanario. 
Say in my old phone I have totally 50 apps, 30 purchased under Appel ID (A), and another 20 purchased under a different Apple ID, (B).
The old device is iOS5 and I turned on iCloud backup and back up everything (data of all apps).
I get a new device, restore from iCloud, wait until everything (photo, messages, settings, most importantly, data of all 50 apps) are restoed to the new phone.
The first thing happen after the first reboot, and it will prompt me to log on my Apple ID, to install apps.
What if, at this moment I decied to only sign on with Apple ID (A), and just don't want to use all 20 apps that I purchased under Apple ID (B) anymore?
Is the data of those 20 apps become leftover /  orphane on my new phone, and just no way to clean them up?  Please notice again, that I did not say "install app and then delete", I know that will clean up the data as well. I mean when data is copied over but app never get installed.

Game settings and other data is part of the backup:

  • What happened to the home screen button from 1st gen iPad? Can't close apps.

    I received a 1st generation iPad as a regift. It worked fine until I erased and synced it with my iTunes and other devices. Instead of the home button, it had that little circle in the corner to get you back to the home screen (don't know what that's called). Now that I've synced, that circle/button is gone, and the home button doesn't take me home. I am stuck in whatever app or settings screen I open, and can't close it without a full reboot. I'm not sure what ios it was using before I reset amd synced, but now it is using 5.1.1. Is this the problem? Any fixes?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • What happens between the timestamp 'Date Sent' and 'Execute from'

    Hi all,
    from SXMB_MONI, I found that some messages take a long time, for example:
    Date Sent            23.09.2008 02:22:39
    Time Taken to Process (Secs)    0,5044590
    Execute From         23.09.2008 02:23:12
    To                   23.09.2008 02:23:13
    Status Set           23.09.2008 02:23:13
    you can find that there are about 30s between the 2 timestamps.
    does anybody know what does the timestamp 'Date Sent' mean? and what does the 'Execute From' mean?
    what happens between these 2 timestamps?
    Regards,
    Bean

    Hi,
    I can't find date sent there...
    Executed from and executed to means times, where message went in to IE and out from IE. For example, if any error occurs, there can be difference 2 days (mapping fails, you correct it and restart the message). So the start will be at 21.10.2008 but end 23.10.2008). But generally, this time comrpises:
    message routing & mapping
    Olian
    after list all of the messages in SXMB_MONI, click the column 'EndTime', you will find the 'Date Sent'.

  • What happened to the geo data in Photos? I used to be able to connect a geographical place to my pictures in IPhoto

    I used to be able to see the geo data logged with my pictures from my camera in IPhoto. And I could attach a geographical place to the photos in my library without geo data. It was also possible to see a map indicating where all my photos were taken. This feature seems to have vanished in the new Photos application.
    Can I see/edit geographical data in Photos?

    Geo tagging was dropped like all of the other features that were dropped when Apple decided to dumb down their desktop photographic software.

  • What happened to the Insert Date menu item?

    In the Numbers 3.0 upgrade the Insert Date menu item is gone.  Where can I now find it?  Or is there now  shortcut?

    David,
    Wait a minute... I'm adding that one to my list.
    My workaround:
    Type =Today() Return, Return, Up-Arrow,  Command-C, Shift-Command-V
    This enters the date from a function then copies the cell and pastes the value back into the cell.
    Some shortcut, eh?

  • What happened to my iCloud documents? They were there yesterday but gone today.

    I opened pages to get my school work and my iCloud folders were empty. The I signed into iCloud and when I clicked pages it said I had to sign up for iCloud Drive, which is only compatible with Yosemite.
    I need my files. I saved them in the cloud for protection and now they are gone.
    iMac 27-inch, mid 2011
    2.7 GHz Intel Corei5
    12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)

    Monte, did you enable iCloud Drive on an iPhone or iPad after updating to iOS8? Or what happened?
    In MacOSX 10.9.4 your Pages documents should be stored in your user Library folder. Click your Desktop to bring the Finder forward, then use the "Go" menu in the Finder. Hold down the options key (or alt key),while you select "GO", until you see "Library in the drop down menu. Open the "Library " folder.
    In the Library window  navigate to the folder "Application Support", and inside this folder to "MobileSync". Here you should find subfolder for "Pages" etc.
    If the MobileSync folder should be missing, or you are seeing documents with "loading" bars, restore this folder from your Time Machine backup.

  • IPhoto says "installing" in app store, on iMac with Yosemite, but it never gets installed.

    I have an older iMac, 24" from the late 2009 era, have upgraded to Yosemite, but now iPhoto won't open.  It says that I need to go to the app store and install the new version.  When I do that very thing, iPhoto says, "Installing" in the gray box that used to say Install, but it never seems to finish installing.  What can I do to fix this?

      What can I do to fix this?
    Start over.
    Find iPhoto on the Launch Pad, hold down on it, till the LaunchPad items start to wiggle, then click the cross to uninstall iPhoto.
    Restart your Mac, then try to install iPhoto again.

  • HT1688 My phone turned off while i was texting. I not sure what happened because the battery was at 72%. I tried turning it on but nothing happened.

    MY phone turned off while texting battery at 72%. I tried turning it on but screen stays black.

    First, try to reset the phone by pressing the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not work, connect in recovery mode, explained here:

  • What happens to the apps if I sync to another pc

    ok here is the question, I know that if I sync apps to another pc they will going to erase and reinstall the apps from purchased apps section but what happens to the saved data or games.. as an example; I have Hay Day game.. the game is at a certain level right now and I want to keep it that way.. once I sync it, it will be erased and reinstalled.. will it save my game progress? or how can I save it?

  • I have both the 250 gb high performance hard drive and a 1 ter byte hard drive.  What happens when the 250 gb hardrive is full?

    I have both the 250 gb high performance hard drive and a 1 ter byte hard drive.  What happens when the 250 gb hardrive is full? This on Imac desktop

    Never let a drive get more than 80% to 85% full.
    AND keep 50-100 GB of free space on a startup drive to allow proper function of virtual memory in all OS X versions from 10.5x to current versions.
    10.4x can get by with 20 GB of free space on the boot drive, but more is always better.
    I try and keep all boot drives between 50 and 60% of capacity.
    Beyond 60% and up to 90% capacity, seek times increase almost exponentially; performance suffers.

  • 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.

  • What happened to the createPDF mobile app.

    I can't find it in the app store anymore and links to it on the adobe website lead nowhere. Has this been discontinued? Any alternatives available?

    Never got a response so I bought Office Suite Pro 6 from the Google Play store.  It goes on sale every now and then.  Picked it up for 99 cents.  Has in-app converion of word to pdf (ie, not cloud based).  Works fine and pretty good Office app too.  Hope this helps.

  • After upgrading what happens to the apps on my 3G?

    I just received my iPhone 4 and put my backup from my iPhone 3G on. It works fine, and there is no more AT&T service on my iPhone 3G. I intend to use the 3G as an iPod Touch. I understand the SIM card needs to stay in the phone for this, even though it is not activated with AT&T.
    What happens to the apps that are still on my 3G? They are still working. I assume they will stay there until I need to sync. Then I will have to set up a new iTunes account, under a unique computer user name, for the 3G and buy the apps all over again for the 3G.

    Nope, the apps stay there until you delete them.
    I currently sync 2 iPhones and 2 iPod Touch units all to one iTunes store account, and per the Apple licensing, they all can run apps I have purchased. I had a similar question as you when I first started using multiple devices, so I sent an email to the app author for the app I wanted most to do this with. His response was that this is Apple's terms, so if I didn't want to purchase a second license to use his app on a second device, then I didn't need to (but he wouldn't stop me if I wanted to either). In the end, I found this app author to be very dedicated to his app, and very responsive to my comments/requests, so I did purchase a second copy of his app (yes, I had my wife create an iTunes account and purchase it under her account).
