What's up YouTube
In this video I will teach you how to save your iOS games
to never lose again your progress after restoring your iDevice.
[One little note] is that this process that I will teach you
works with all iDevices in all
iOS versions.
But why saving your games?
Well, despite of not having necessarily "Jailbreak"
as you can see, that I don't have it..
This video is more useful to those who have it. Because those
must know that for upgrading to a recent iOS version
they must restore the iDevice
upgrade it and Jailbreak again.
And when you restore it
it makes you
lose your games.
But to understand it, lets go with the practical.
As an example, I will show you this app (iCopter) that is free.
It's a simple game..
As you will see here
I have my highscore - 3306
And this "number" will be saved
for, after restoring,
be back in here as my Highscore.
So, today's goal is
save this highscore, restore the iDevice,
in this case, an iPod Touch 2nd Gen,
again install the game
and recover this highscore, without losing any data.
For this process
we will need to connect
our iDevice to the computer
with a USB cable
and download a program called "iExplorer" that I will leave the link in the description
the link in the description.
So let's begin by going to the computer
Now that the program is your computer,
after installing it
you will open it
and go the
"Apps" section
that is right here.
Give two clicks in the app that you want to save your highscores and data
and the folders that you will want to save are: "Documents"
and "Library".
For this step,
click
one single time on "Documents"
and to select this other folder
click on "Ctrl" (Keyboard)
and select it.
After this
just drag those
to Desktop.
You can see down here
the process that is taking place.
It's done when
It's done when
the "text" disappears.
Now with your data saved,
you can restore your
iDevice.
It's what I'm gonna do right now.
It is a very simple process:
Open iTunes,
yours is right here.
And simply restore
the iPod, iPhone or iPad
whether what you have.
Click on "Restore.."
and.. done.
For you to see that I'm restoring my iPod Touch
here
you have it
After restoring
your device,
the highscores
will be "0" again.
I won't have 3306 anymore
so... "0"
as you can see here.
Let's then head over to
the step where we recover the games.
Again, open the program "iExplorer"
that you downloaded and
in the "Apps" section
click twice
on your app
that you saved the 2 folders
that I mentioned
a while ago
(the "Documents" and "Library")
and what you will do now is
right click on your mouse
delete
these 2 folders.
One by one.
Only delete the second folder when
down here
there is no "text".
With these folders deleted,
let's go to the Desktop
and simply drag
the 2 previous folders of your game
inside your game's directory.
This will gives us again
our data/highscores that we had.
When the "text" process is over,
we will have
our apps
like they were before.
As we can see here,
after this long process,
we have our apps progress back
as you can see...
3306. There you have it!
