Hi iPhone gurus,
I've been searching the web and this forum, and it seems no one has addressed this issue.
If one were to accidentally delete an app from the iPhone (easy enough to do), how would they go about restoring the app AND its data? I would have thought that one could restore their entire iPhone's memory from a previous backup on iTunes, however, this doesn't seem to be the case. This must be a common problem, and yet I can't find anyone asking this question, let alone solving the issue.
In my particular case, I've upgraded an app which is much worse than the previous version. I know how to downgrade an app, but it involves deleting the app from the iPhone and reinstalling it. The problem is that I will lose all the data. So I thought I could just restore from my backup but it didn't work. The upgraded app is still there.
In the meantime I cannot unplug my phone from my Mac because otherwise, next time I plug it in, my backup would be overwritten.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
