so my computer has a habbit of crashing once or twice every year(so does my ipos touch) . but now i dont want to lose all the apps, music, podcast subscriptions etc. whats a good (free) program to backup my entire library? also my itouch is jailbroken how i can back my jailbroken apps/settings up?
Here's the best procedure. I use it, so it works. Download Cobian Backup 9 from the internet (I don't care where you find it, and it's free). Use this and select the following folders C:/Users/[username]/Music and C:/Users/[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer. Back these up onto an external HD. This will save all of your Music, Podcasts, Movies, and Apps, as well as your iPod backup, which contains the save data. You will have to enter the 2nd address manually, fyi. Download AptBackup from Cydia to backup jailbroken settings.
ok thanks a lot ill check it out how do you get everything back in itunes after? just copy the maps back to their original location?
Yes, but put the stuff back in their original folder (You can overwrite the originals), and restart iTunes, and it'll do it's thing.
