I'm talking about the current version of iTunes, that even doesn't allow to access the store, this nowadays could only be done using the iPad. In the past it also was possible to purchase an app via iTunes. If the app was purchased via iTunes, the binary perhaps was part of a "backup". > Again, you synced without accidentally > deleting the app first. Such a sync is not a backup.

I might be mistaken here, in so far, that I don't want to restore the complete iPad, after accidentally deleting an app. I only want to get back the user data for this app, after reinstalling it and not to override user data of other apps, too.
