Installous + iTunes: A Cat and Mouse Story

“Being Able to Sync Hacked Apps Through iTunes Has Been Thwarted”

Photobucket

Notice that you are not able to sync your hacked apps through iTunes. You’re not the only one. It turns out the Apple would not like you to be able to back up your hacked apps.

If you turn on the iTunes sync option, iTunes will proceed to erase your hacked apps. Keep the option set to OFF and sync your iPhone as usual. If you do lose your apps, just go to the Downloads Tab and reinstall them.

Until a workaround is discovered you can back up and restore your apps through AppBackup in Cydia.
