Will the iTunes or iCloud backup retain the app data?

Will the iTunes or iCloud backup retain the app data? I've app data which is very necessary! I've a game which I've taken 5 months to reach that height! Will I be able to retain it?

iCloud backups retain app data. The only caveat to this is that each app's developer determines individually if they decide that their app will store data in an icloud backup. You can check this out by going to settings > icloud > storage and backup > manage storage > select your backup > then ensure that the app you're concerned about is switched to 'on'

  • After syncing my ipod touch with a new computer, will an icloud backup restore my app data including game progress?

    I have an ipod touch which I have USB synced in the past on my Windows Vista laptop.
    Now I want to stop USB Syncing with the laptop and USB start syncing instead with my Windows 7 Desktop machine instead.
    Both PCs have the latest version of itunes running and I have transferred all purchases from the ipod to the Windows 7 desktop machine.
    Home sharing is turned on on both PCs, so now their libraries appear identical.
    The ipod has the latest IOS installed, and I have set up automatic icloud back ups for the ipod.
    If i USB sync the ipod with the windows 7 desktop PC it warns me that all data will be erased, and replaced with data from that computer. I know that this will mean that all game progress is lost since it is not included in a USB sync backup and virgin copies of all the apps will be loaded onto the ipod.
    My Question is this;
    What is the best way to keep the app data intact on the ipod?
    Do I simply carry out a USB sync with the Windows 7 desktop PC, let it wipe all the game save info away, and then resore an icloud backup onto the ipod?
    Will this result in me being able to sync with the Windows 7 desktop PC and keep my game save data intact?
    Thanks

    Two ways.
    - You can sync with the new computer by following these instructions

    All the apps have to be in the iTunes library so the app data will have a place to go.
    - Or just restore from iCloud backup. That will also pull down the apps from iCloud. Your apps data will also be restored.

    Yes yes and yes.

    No. Only those Apps that are not installed on the new will migrate over.

  • How can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    how can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    If you connect your iPhone to a computer running Linux (Ubuntu version in my case) it will become recognized as a normal USB memory pen-drive.
    From there, you can use many methods to recover your lost deleted files.
    TestDrive allows you to search the drive (iPhone memo) and gives you the possibility to recover deleted files. I'm not an expert, nor did it with iDevice by myself. But it worked for me with Symbian phone (Nokia)...

  • If I restore my phone anone will the apps I bought ith money be there for free

    IF I restore my phone  will the apps I bought be on my Apple ID for free

    Yes.
    Except for purchased ringtones, all purchased iTunes content can be re-downloaded for free, as long as the same Apple ID, that was used to originally purchase the content, is used to re-download it.

  • HT5188 Free VPP app - Cannot load VPP Codes into Configurator because app is Free.  Sister company developed the app for us at no cost and we are installing on our devices.  Will the app expire after a year without VPP codes?  Devices will not have connec

    This is strange Case!
    We have been authorized to download 40 copies of a VPP app.  The price tier is free.  We download the app through itunes and load it into configurator.  Because the App is free we are not given the option to load the codes which we rightfully own. 
    The devices we wish to configure will not have internet connectivity in the future and I need to know that the app on them will not expire!
    If I load the app with configurator (unsupervised!) will the app expire in a year and be disabled?  I cannot have that happen!
    Please advise!
    Best,

  • Some calendars in iCal appear corrupted but OK on iPhone. If I sync will the calendar data on the phone restore info on the desktop iCal? any other ideas for how to sort this please?

    Some calendars in iCal appear corrupted (ie have red exclamation mark by them) but are still OK on iPhone. If I sync, will the calendar data on the phone restore info on the desktop iCal or will I lose that as well? Or could I back up the calendars on my iPhone somewhere and then import them into iCal? any other ideas for how to sort this please? it's driving me mad. thanks.

    I don't think there will be a solution to this. Exchange 2003 just isn't supported.

  • When will the app store be available?

    when will the app store be available? i heard the new update comes in June but I am curious to know when exactly it will be released. Please let me know. thanks!

    No, the app store will be out when the iPhone Firmware 2.0 is released. The 2nd gen phone is to be released "some time in 2008" not necessarily when the 2.0 update is released. However, Apple has been letting stock of the 1st gen iPhone draw down so you can make your own conclusions.
    Right, well, here's the news of what I know...
    Apple Stores of New York City and New Jersey (Freehold, NJ, others unsure) are out of stock.

  • How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!

    I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
    If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • 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.
    "restore candy crush backup progress"
    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.

  • Will the APP be launched automatically after upgrade from iTunes?

    Hi All,
    I noticed that before iTunes upgrade any APP, it will kill the APP first. So I'm doubting if iTunes will automatically lauch the APP after that.
    Does anyone know about it? Is there any official doc about this? Appreciate any help I can get.

    Have you tried the standalone installer?
