Does tibu overwrite backups When you make a new one? Just wondering if I can delete older ones from my SD card.

You have as many as set in Preferences > max backup history.
You can trim the backups to whatever number in batch actions > trim backups

How do i save my apps when changing from one ROM to another? I like checking out all the new ROMS out there, but i hate that i lose my apps...
Titanium Backup.

Mybackup pro is a good one too. You could always partition your sd card within rom manager or bootstrap to write the apps to your sd card. From there you can simply do an advanced restore of just the sd.ext.

When I restore my apps with titanium backup how do I get market to recognize them as installed so I can get automatic app updates?

hmmm, i think it does automagically. I have restored my apps 2-3 times and I did not have to do anything special.

Rather than making a new thread I'll post in here.
I was flashing some roms and backed up my apps at the wrong time in turn losing a lot of saved points in games and app settings. Can I just go back into one of my recent nandroid backups and copy the titanium backup files somewhere to replace the ones I don't want in my current rom? If so which ones?
The files your after are in the Titanium backup folder.

Lol this is obvious but which files do I need? There are several options in the nandroid folder like system, recovery, cache etc but their all img files? Again, I only have the files in my nandroid backup. My Titanium is setup to replace old files when a new backup is performed..
Thanks for any help in advance..

TB saves its stuff on the SD card, which is untouched by the usual Data/Cache/Dalvik wipes for a new ROM. Your most recent backups should be present no matter what.

OK lemme give some more info to help. I just got finished flashing my GB rom to replace my FR with all my settings widgets etc.. Once I had all the apps re-downloaded and thought I was ready to use titanium backup to restore all of my app data I accidentally did a backup instead, in turn REPLACING all of my original settings, saved games etc with just new games and all default bs..
So now, my ONLY option is to restore a backup I had previously when all my settings and games were where I liked them and then do another titanium backup to replace the new stuff. THEN, I have to restore my current GB nandroid to get back to my current ROM and then use titanium to restore my old stuff. The issue is finding which part of the titanium file I need from my Froyo backup to replace my GB backup.. Does that make sense lol?
I think I may figure it out but its trial and error.. I'll report back when and if I get it, just kinda sucks trying to do all this with root explorer and flashing everything over and over while at work..
If I'm doing this wrong please tell me but I am not seeing the easy way out in all of this..
You've got it right, do it just like that. Backing up / restoring Nandroids doesn't affect the SD card, but if you're paranoid you can unmount it. Restore nandroid, backup with TB, restore other nandroid, restore TB.

hey all
so i updated to cleanrom 6 and i thought i backed my apps up correctly with titanium backup. I had the files back up to my ext SD card they are there but when i go to restore, nothing is there and nothing restores.
did i screw up?
Does tb recognize the correct folder for the backup? Maybe you need to change where it is looking.

nvm, just copied everything to another location and its works
I always have to tell it to change the location in preferences. That way I don't have to worry about moving stuff.

So I just went from TW to Slimbean and I had backed up my apps with Titanium Backup, but when I reinstalled TB it doesnt have any files pertaining to app backups. I formated system and did clean install of slimbean, but I thought TB backedup to the SD...? I am wondering if maybe 4.2 just created a new folder for TB so its empty... something to do with the /0/ thing? Any help would be appreciated..

Did you remember to change the Backup folder in Titanium Backup to the /mnt/extSdCard directory when you installed it? If not it would have defaulted to the internal SDCard.
Unfortunately I did not do as such... Is there a way to navigate my nandroid to pull that tb data? Or do I have to revert back to the nandroid and pull the data off there?

Menu/Preferences/Backup Folder Location/Detect/Whole device. This will make TB scan the entire phone for your backups. Your data has been moved inside the /0 folder and has a symlink to /data/media cuz of AOSP 4.2.2.

Turns out there is actually an option to extract backups from a nandroid... So I did that and it worked. All is well.

Hello everyone, I restored the first backup of my LG-P999 through cwm to stock. I had already installed titanium backup after rooting my phone and before flashing roms. And now that I am back on this stock rom none of the apps i used to have running cm7 will show up in titanium backup. Is there a folder I could extract from my cm7 backup to get them all back? Also just curious because I will be getting a new phone soon and how I am going to get all my apps back.
Thanks in advance

In titanium under preferences go to backup folder location it has an option to automatically locate a backup folder or if you know where it is you can find it. Cm7 uses sdcard as primary storage, stock uses internal so it confuses titanium.
