trying to restore apps and i get this message! ? fix?
the restore of data was fine but apps wont!
I'm getting this too when trying to restore my data after flashing a new rom. Let me know if you hear of any solutions.
The mybackup website says its an SD card error.. that may be the case, but it was working fine an hour ago on the old rom I had (because I'm new I can't post the link, but a quick google to their FAQ and you'll see what I mean)
I think my issue was due to the SD card. I reformatted it and then copied the contents back again from my laptop. I've now re-installed the new ROM and am using mybackup root to restore my contents as I type this - all seems fine so far
Thanks for the feedback.
What did you format normal or ext or both

I had the same error. I don't find how to fix it but how to recover my data app.
Save the backup on your PC
Execute all .apk in my save folder from your phone
Launch mybackup to do another apps save with data
Copy all file wich are not .apk in the old backup (on your pc) and past them in the new backup folder on your phone (replace all existing file)
And finaly restor the backup, it will restore the data with the app
It's not "user friendly" but it worked for me, it was not a SD card issue
I was having this same issue. Watching alogcat revealed that an apk that MBP was expecting was not there, causing an IO error.
I tried to restore again, this time unselecting that specific app and it appears to be working.
So to fix it, install alogcat and watch for errors as the restore is taking place. This should clue you in on the problem.

This was exactly my problem. Seems like the ****ing program didn't actually back up a damned thing. The folder which was supposed to have the backed-up APKs was completely empty.
I had to restore from an older backup and it worked.
I guess that's just what happens when you rely on free apps.
Just got the same STUPID problem - I'll try the fix above.
The only reason I chose MyBackup Root was because you can do "0-click batch restore" for free which you can't with the free version of Titanium Backup.
EDIT: Backups won't restore. It says "I/O Error". I've had the SD card for a few weeks and it was working perfectly with Titanium Backup. Also, everything's been properly installed formatted and fixing permissions and clearing caches makes no difference.
EDIT 2: After running aLogcat, it says that Mybackup has the following error: "...apps/appnamehere: open failed: EM0ENT (No such file or directory). It's like this for most of my of apps (and I have hundreds) that are now lost with all their data!
Also, none of the apps that do restore so far link to the market (it says this after restore).
This app really needs updating to resolve these serious issues.

When backing up apps and data again it STILL won't backup some apps!! Any suggestions?
Hello ,
I recently upgraded to ICS but i had lots of bugs and errors and i was advised to tray and reinstall the software. I used the repair form pc companion but i said what all my data wold be deleted. So i used this program that i had "Backup And Restore" (file-extensions.org/backup-and-restore-file-extensions] )(its a link but i cant post links...something about new user.... ). Everything went fine. But after the new software finished installing i tried to restore my backup. It sees it, it tells me that it have contacts,mms,sms,bookmarks and market app in backup (that is what it must have) and i click restore but it gives me an error " Could not restore data ".
Any idea how to fix that? or any other program that i can use to restore the data from that backup ? it is a .sbf file ... originally it was named 30_06_2012.sbf and i thought it was the name problem ..and i renamed it 30062012.sbf ...dunno if its relevant or not but ...
Thank you.

Thank you for reply...Titanium backup requires root ...i don't have a rooted rom
search the MArket for Backup & restore apps ... i am sure u will find plenty ....use the power of google !!!!
i tried plenty ... most of them doesn't recognize the backups made by this program ..
Hello. I am loving bigxie's 4.2 rom (here) but I can't seem to get titanium backup to work. It says I have nothing to restore when I have about 60 things to restore. Please help me.
Thanks
Apparently 4.2 changes directories on your sdcard to sdcard0.
May try titanium settings and have it rescan. Not on 4.2 yet so can't test for you, but seems I had this solution work with a similar issue on another device.
Edit: titanium/preferences/backup location.

Thanks for the help, but it didn't work. I tried changing the "backup location" to:
mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup
sdcard/TitaniumBackup
storage/0/emulated/TitaniumBackup
storage/sdcard0/TitaniumBackup
and other things
I will be assuming that you've used auto detect. Have you tried to move your Titanium Backup folder to /sdcard/0?

do you backup to the cloud? you can import backups from within preferences...otherwise, if you have access to those backups (in a Dropbox folder or something)
connect your phone to your computer...create a new directory "titanium"
copy all backups to this directory
unplug phone from PC
in titanium, select >preferences >backup location
press the back button to navigate to the newly created "titanium" folder, and select it as your new location
it's got something to do with 4.2...i couldn't access my TitaniumBackup folder on pc and did the above to fix it
if you don't have a cloud backup, restore your 4.1.2, copy the TitaniumBackup folder to your PC, then restore your 4.2 and do the above
(there may be an easier way but it's past midnight and that's all i can come up with)
try resetting your filters...i had uninstalled apps filtered out.
Try this
I am not sure if it works for free version, but this is what I did. Titanium Backup Pro -> Preferences -> Backup folder location -> Scan, it will find and give you the multiple directories it has... luckily you will find the one you have your data with... Old post I know, but someone might find it useful when they run into this.
I don't know if this is the right place, but I don't want to start a new topic.
So, this is what I have: a Galaxy Nexus GSM running CM 10.1 (on the nightlies branch). I had to do a data wipe this morning because of a boot loop, but I did a NAND backup from TWRP (checking /data and /system) before that. The problem is that Titanium Backup does not see what's inside that NAND backup - it sees the folder, but when I choose it, it begins scanning ('Analysing TWRP backup'), then comes with a screen like this: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-...1zy6U/s823/Screenshot_2013-02-13-16-31-16.png. Does this have anything to do with the Android ID (I restored it to an older one, it should match the one it was when I did the NAND)? I installed TB 6.0 at first, but it's the same with 6.0.2.1. I have a PRO key.

It is my understanding that twrp recovery backup files cannot be read by the other tb.

As far as I know, Titanium Backup doesnt restore from a nand. It makes its own backup folder with all the backups it creates on your SD Card. You have to use Titanium Backup to make the backups. If it does restore from a nand, then I dont know about that option and have never used it.

I beg to differ, please see this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup
It clearly says 'restore from CWM/TWRP backup', it's in the menu.
I have a 'native' TB backup, but it's from a little earlier.
Use a root file explorer or adb to move/copy your titanium backups from where they are currently to where titanium wants them to be
e.g. from /sdcard/TitaniumBackup to /sdcard/0/TitaniumBackup for example, I can't exactly remember how it goes for 4.2 (I just came off a 4.2 rom back to 4.1 stock toro).

The native backup restored just fine. If it didn't, I could change the backup location in the settings.
The point is that the NAND backup from TWRP is newer, but appears empty in TB.
I tried to backup my apps using app2zip 2x now
on 2 different occasions
apps that are installed on internal sd do not restore with their saved data
is anyone else having this problem?
can anyone explain why this happens?
I'm having an issue with the apps not responding, they are all installed but do not work
it was a good app but has failed me sometimes ... i use ROM toolbox pro never had an issue with them and they do a batch restore /also batch back-up need to have usb-debugging on and your good to go unfortunately i cant trouble shoot your problem, you could also try titanium back up they make ZIP for back ups as well if you prefer that method good luck
I have succesfully rooted my device, busybox installed and changed platform.xml to add media RW.
After that titanium backup was able to find my backup folder on the external SD and i tried to restore apps but none would restore
it always is stuck at 0% and cant even restore the first app, even if i just select one app...
Any help?

Sorry I hadn't seen earlier. You might have solved your problem in the meantime. First thing I would try is uninstall and then reinstalling Titanium Backup. 2nd, move your backup location to the phone instead of your external card. (Temp to test the program). Run a backup and try restoring a couple files to see if the restore is working from phone storage. That will tell you if its TB or a permissions problem. Once you've confirmed it's working, change your location back to your TB folder on the external drive (TB will find it when you ask it to). Reboot and try a new backup. Then try a restore from the new backup on the SD card.
If you are still having the same problem, your External card is either bad or you haven't fixed the permissions yet.
I had some problems with TB backing up. Kept dismounting the SD card and erroring out. Eventually, just bought a new Samsung card and stuck my Sandisk Pro back in a box. Good Luck.
USB debugging turned on? When off I get the same kind of handling. Turning it on gets it going right away.
