Whats a good app that backups your settings, apps?

What is a good app that I can use to backup my stuff on the thunderbolt? I head whenever we start getting the update that it will wipe all your apps? Is there any backup apps that I can use? I really dont wanna go back and redue everything.

unless something goes wrong during your download or install, the update will not wipe anything. if you use google to sync your contacts or backup assistant, then they are safe. also, google knows what apps you have already bought so you can retrive those as well. i don't backup my apps because it's just not that big of a deal to me to simply go to the market and download them all again (if you actually had to reset your device). even if you back them up, you will have to reinstall them if they were lost. i wouldn't worry too much about it.

JPEG/PSD issue--I open a jpeg and edit it (levels, crop) and then "save as" and the save as option shows there are now levels in the image and it wants to save it as a .psd file or a copy with layers. What am I doing that has these settings appear?

16bit? Pixels extending beyond the canvas? (from a crop with delete unused pixels turn off). Have you previously been saving PSD files?
IME you sometimes have to tell Photoshop that the first save of a session is JPG, and it remembers from there on. The way to 'tell' Photoshop that JPG, or PDF, or PNG etc are now your preferred format is to Ctrl (Cmd) click on that format in the Save As drop down list. So long as the file does not have parameters that your chosen format does not support, then this should work for you.
[EDIT] Just noticed that you did include 'Crop' in the subject line. Do you have 'Delete cropped pixels' checked?

If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds

HT201272 Purchased an app that is in my app library on iTunes but it will not transfer to my iPad when I sync. How to I do this?

I purchased an app that is in my app library on iTunes but it doesn't transfer to my iPad when I sync. What do I do?

It depends on the iPod shuffle model... Assuming your shuffle is the 4th gen (or 3rd gen) model, do you use automatic syncing or the manual method (drag and drop song on iPod in iTunes)?
This document shows the four shuffle models, and provides general info about loading content on shuffles

I am looking for a text to speech app that supports the Books App?

I am looking for a text to speech app that supports the Books App?

If Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver does not work, then it is unlikely iBooks will do text to speach on its own in the current version.
<http://www.apple.com/feedback>
I know that some competing services, Kindle, Nook, etc... are restricted in doing text to speach by the book publishers.
If this is text in a PDF (not an ebook), then maybe there is another app that can to text to speach on PDFs.
If it is published books that are of interest, there is Audible.com <http://www.audible.com/>
In theory it should be possible to use the Mac OS X Text to Speach facilities to convert a document into an audio file, and they sync that to the iPod Touch. I assume there is similar text to speach utilities for Windows systems.
I'm also guessing that there are web sites dedicated to assisting sight impaired individuals that might provide ideas for getting text to speach options for the iPod Touch.

Is there a app that will tell all apps that are running and possibly how much battery power they use?

You don't need an app to do this. Here's how you get the battery info. Go to Settings>More>Battery. This will show you all the active apps and their individual battery usage.

I have an app that is a 'safe' app for my passwords

I have an app that is a 'safe' app for my passwords and it has disappeared and isn't on icloud either and seems to have disappeared on istore any suggestions?

Have you checked the developers website to see what happened with it?
Personally, I use 1Password, which is extremely well supported, updated frequently, has been around for years, and isn't going to suddenly disappear.
You generally get what you pay for. Free apps often disappear as the developers often don't make any or enough money from them, and have no incentive to keep supporting them.

Bought a rip-off App that stalks your activity, want my money back but they blocked me!

Alright guys!
My problem is that I bought this app called iTeleport VNC. Basically what it does is show your Mac screen on your iPhone. I thought this should be fun and so I decided to buy it for € 3,99 (it seems to be for sale for € 17,99 now, probably I was lucky and it was discounted — thank god!).
So I downloaded the app to my iPhone, I downloaded the other one to my Mac and tried to make it run.
The first very mysterious thing is that is starts asking your Gmail address and password. It says it needs them because all of this runs over Google Talk servers. I find this quite strange because why would they need my email address and its password for this? All they need is the server IP, password and port numbers or something like that. I gave in a fake Gmail address that I had made some time ago and continued.
This is all during installation by the way.
Then a window pops up that asks you if you want to enable screen sharing. I don't think I want to share my screen, do I? If you click no, it will not work because a message will pop up and tell you that the app couldn't find screen sharing and that it will try again in 10 seconds (and it goes on like that…).
It also said that if I click yes, I will be able to disable it later again. So I thought "alright, let's click yes and then let's disable it". Unfortunately there is no option to disable it in the settings.
I don't understand why it needs all that stuff like email passwords, etc. I have another app which allowed me to control iTunes over my iPhone and I think it works a similar way. Not exactly the same of course, but kind of. And it doesn't ask any passwords or such a thing.
To me this seems like they're just trying to collect private data. I don't want them to see my screen and I don't want them to know my Gmail password. But you have to do this in order to make the app run.
After a while I finally was able to make it run. There seemed to be 2 modes: one, where you will see the logic screen of your Mac on your iPhone. The other one requires you to enter the password to your computer in the App, so it always redirects you to your desktop automatically. Basically it skips the login window. But I preferred to type the password in the login window. Unfortunately this wasn't possible because you weren't able to type anything in that field.
And that's where I decided to stop using this app and deleted it.
It didn't say any of that in the App description, which I think it should. Some people don't want to "register" to their service my giving away their personal information, this should definitely be mentioned.
So obviously I wanted my money back… because I find it wrong, it's not what was written in the description.
I went to the iTunes store (inside of iTunes), then clicked the little arrow in the top right corner beside my email address, clicked on "Account" and then you will find a link to your purchase history.
There's a button to report a problem, and that's what I did. I selected the app, reported the problem and wrote basically what I wrote abobe. There was also a drop-down menu which asked you in which category this goes. Unfortunately I selected something like "This app doesn't work the way it should" and that's how iTunes blocked me from reporting it again. Because after I submit my request, a message came and told me that Apple isn't responsible on how 3rd party apps work. No they aren't, but they're responsible for what they put in their store and they need to make sure it works and that it's not against people's privacy.
So now I can't report it again because when I try this it tells me I have already reported a problem for this app (or that the problem is too old, which isn't the case. Plus, how can the problem be too old? I think it's meant to be something like I bought the app too long ago. Fail!).
The big questions now is, does anyone know how I can get my € 3,99 back?
Do you believe I should contact the people who made this app? But what should I say?
All help is appreciated guys!
Thank you!

I would suggest you first read their FAQ:
http://www.iteleportmobile.com/support/faq
That addresses the request for a Google account and explains how to get things up without needing to provide your Gmail account information. If you continue to have questions, contact the developer's technical support or ask for advice on their forums:

I think if you'll work with the developer, you'll probably be able to sort things out.

How secure are Apps that store your personal Information?

I have a few Apps for storing ID and Credit card info - but I am very hesitant to use them - How do I know that once I have used them, the creator of the app cant access my supposedly "secured" info?

Any app--regardless of the "who"--can be hacked, and info stolen, if someone wants it bad enough. Not all apps store info in your unit; the info may be safely stored in a encrypted server somewhere far away.
My recommendation is that you not store your CC info and any personal information you don't want spread around. Turn off certain program functions for example, go into settings and scroll down and see what programs are listed there. You can turn off certain info that they gather there. Other programs, you may need to open the app and adjust settings there.
If there is an "purchase in the app" function...that becomes your call. Generally, though...the less info you keep in an app, the better.

I have a number of apps on my Ipad2 that no longer have sound. I have checked setting on my ipad and the settings on the apps that have a settings and the sound and volume are ok. Do I have a virus in some apps?

I have a number of apps on my ipad2 tha no longer have sound. I have checked the ipad settings and the apps that have settings and all sound and volume are ok. Do I have a virus? Pandora sound is ok. It seems mostly to be games...angry birds, tap tap, and educational games for little ones. Any suggestions?

There aren't any viruses for iOS devices. Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
