GoBackup does not recocnize my backups after adding an EXT partition - HTC Sensation

Hi there, yesterday I backed up everything using GoBackup, then formatted everything and added an EXT and a SWAP partition. After I installed the rom and the backup app, to my surprise it didi not find any backups. I checked and found out the backup path has changed after adding a new partion, i.e. sdcard(0). Even with the option in GoBackup settings that let me search for old backups nothing's found. If you have any idea please help.

[Q]Question about restoring by Titanium Backup

Hi, pretty newbie to use Titanium backup here. I did fully backup after i installed, so everything saved in the sd folder, no problem. then i copied the folder to the pc. for trying some new rom, i wiped everything, even partitioned sd after wiping. after flashing and other setup, i re-installed titanium backup. To restore everything, i copied the folder from pc to sd then(folder name exactly match the main page shows in titanium), but it seems titanium didnt "reconize" those backup files. I mean, for the option in the menu-->batch, the counts for "Verify all your backup", or "Restore all your backups" doesn't match what i used to have.
So what should I do now for restore? did i miss some settings? Thanks in advance for instruction.
nv mind, it seems i figured it out

Problem Restoriung

I have a problem with restoring my apps from a CWM backup from SD-Ext on my HTC Sensation. I've used ROM Toolbox Pro to restore the apps from my CWM Backup, but the ones on the SD-Ext won't be restored. It says it's successful, but none of the apps are there. It's about 70 apps. I've also tried to restore them with Titanium Backup, but then, the whole app freezes. I've also tried to restore it via a recovery. I'm currently using 4ext 1.0.0.5 recovery, but CWM wouldnæt either restore them. Any suggestions to how I can restore them?
Sorry for the thread title... Hit the enter instead of backspace...
Is it trying to restore them to the SD-Ext partition?
If you can, try moving the backup to the main partition of the SD Card and see if it works from there.

Titanium Backup -- unable to restore, folder empty

I flashed a new ROM yesterday. I swear I backed up my apps and data with Titanium backup (onto my SD card) but when I tried to restore apps, they are no where to be found. Per instructions, I wiped cache and davlik folder after I flashed my new ROM.
Here is what I have done so far: Titanium backup > menu> preferences> backup folder location > /storage/emulated/legacy/TitaniumBackup . When I click detect, it says "no backup location found".
I used ROM manager to backup ROM before flashing the new ROM, not sure if this also backs up the apps and ther data that I had on the phone. This will really suck if I lost everything as I have so many documents on the phone.
I am in desperate need for help. Any help will be appreciated.
Sorry for the stupid question... Did you tick the selection to search whole device?

Restore files
You should choose to restore the contents of, but can be restored some programs back is can't use. But not as you say nothing at all, you must have made a mistake, software wouldn't, at the same time with titanium backup directory in the memory card, you have to go to the next, backup the files if you have that can restore normal

[SOLVED] Link2SD - Lost my apps - How do I restore ?

SOLVED - I just reinstalled all the APK, automatically linking them on the SD card. The data was still on the EXT4 partition, so everything was found by the apps.
--------------
Hi,
Link2SD was working really nice, until randomly, I kept getting errors saying it cannot links the apps...
So I've fulled backed up my EXT4 partition on my computer (Just drag and dropped the folders. Not sure if this was correct), powered off the phone, reformetted the EXT4 partition with GParted, copied the files back in with Linux, put the SD card back in the phone, power it ON;
But now, Link2SD does not detect the apps that I've copied back on the card - although it can link the apps again.
The apps that were restored simply doesn't appear anywhere (But are on the partition).
Is there any way I can restore the full EXT4 backup I've took ?

Your solution didn't work for me because it just gave an error whenever I tried to reinstall one of the previously linked apps. Likely because of the excess files leftover from the original because it would let me install new apps but not the missing ones. I tried to delete some files manually for an app or two, but that didn't work either. I found an easy solution though that works.
SOLUTION:
Just open Link2SD. Click the top left corner for the menu. Then click on "Clean up the 2nd partition". When I did it said it needed to delete 104 unused files, so I said ok. Afterwards, actually all but 2(out of 32) of my apps were restored with data automatically and those two I just restored from Titanium Backup.
NOTE FOR ANYONE TRYING THIS:
If it's still not working after that, then just try to reboot and see if they reappear. If you do lose some apps, at least you can reinstall or restore them from a backup after that. Again I only lost 2, but the other 30 missing linked apps were restored.

TB No Longer Working

Hello all!
I recently decided to wipe everything (including internal storage) just to have a clean start. Everything on my SD card remained unchanged, including Titanium Backup files.
After a fresh load of a ROM that previously had no issues, Titanium Backup no longer sees my files. I moved them to the internal memory as well, but no luck. When I change the folder location, TB sees the files, but no backups appear in the list.
I don't know what happened but I cannot restore any of my backups at this time.
What have I tried so far:
Wiping data of TB
Reinstalling TB
Reinstalling fresh ROM again
None of these items have helped at all. I do not believe it is the ROM as TB worked on this ROM previously (BrokenOS).
I think this is a folder or TB problem.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
Also, my apologies if I left out any crucial details.
Kevin
Bump?
What directory do you have set for TITANIUM to save backups to? To check .... Go to MENU > PREFERENCES > BACKUP FOLDER LOCATION
Now, if your backups are on your SD CARD or INTERNAL, hitting "DETECT" will find them and you could select that folder location or you can browse to the path yourself if you know where it is.
