Hello,
Due to a harddrive failure, I've lost all my iPod Touch apps and data. (iTunes Library was on an external drive, so the music is not an issue. However all the iPod Touch apps and data were in the local Music/iTunes directory, so have been lost.)
I am most concerned with the data - contacts, notes, etc. currently on the Touch. I have already imported all the music back into iTunes from the external HD, but I have not yet connected the Touch. I have checked "Disable automatic syncing" in iTunes preferences. If I attempt to sync, will the iPod automatically restore the apps and data (including contacts)?? Or should I use one of the 3rd party utilities (Senuti, etc.) to restore the apps and data back to my new copy of iTunes?
Thanks, and yes, I will be backing up religiously from this point forward...
