I've just installed Helium to backup the apps on my Nexus 10. A number of apps are listed as "backup disallowed". Anyone know why this is?

I have downloaded titanium and understand how to back up apps but I am lost on how to pull them back and restore them once I have done and wipe and flashed a rom. Anyone have some advice on how to do this? I have searched the web and cant seem to find a place that gives a good explanation
When you backup an app or app+data with Titanium Backup it is saved to your SD Card. When you wipe and flash a new rom, if the rom does not have Titanium Backup (most don't have it cooked in) then you need to download it from the market. It will see the backups you have and from the main app screen you will click on Backup/Restore. Then click on the app that you wish to restore and it will bring a pop-up that gives you buttons with actions to choose from. Click Restore and it will ask if you want to restore the App only or app+data. If you choose App+Data, it should restore to the state that it was in when you made the backup, meaning that it should retain your settings.

So outside of doing a batch backup every now and then to keep everything up today I dont have to do anything else but just reload titanium on the new rom
Not that I know of.
How can I back up my apps and restore them on a fresh rom? I have titainium back up pro. But I tried to flash a new rom and the app was gone. Do I need to partisan my SD or move apps to the sd-ext?

With titanium backup you have to download the "pro version" which is only the key to unlock all the features of titanium backup. Find titanium backup on the market install it open it up and press the menu button-batch-and click backup all apps and data- then you flash a new rom- redownload titanium backup "some roms come with it" and titanium backup pro key "you don't have to buy it again" and then open titanium backup- click menu- tap batch- tap restore all apps and data- let it do its thing
When going to an updated version of a ROM and needing to do a full wipe, what should i and shouldn't i be backing up and restoring? Can somebody give a run down of what options to select when doing the backup? And is there a way to have everything auto restore instead of having to select install for every app and then done?
Titanium Backup does everything good by default. You simply select Batch Backup/Restore, press "Backup all user apps" and wait till it ends. When you need to restore, you go there again but choose "restore all missing apps with data". If you don't want to select every app you need to buy Titanium Backup key in the market. After that it will not ask you to press install button everytime. And about what you should or shouldn't backup: if you really need to do a full wipe it's better to backup only your apps and forget about system data cause you can get a lot of headache after restoring everything.
Backup only user apps, not system apps.

open titanium backup, hit menu then go to preference and under backup settings change your backup folder location to the one you copied to your device. In my case i keep mine on my extsdcard.

Hello
I have a Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910C, rooted and running Lollipop 5.5.1
Actually, I use TWRP 2.8.7 for backup (everything is checked-Boot, System, Data, Cache, EFS, Radio) and I wonder is it enough?
Namely, is that the contacts, applications, desktop (shortcuts), calls, sms, mms, emails, bookmarks, ... are included in the backup?
Is TWRP allows partial restoration, system or applications or contacts... only
Otherwise, may you advise me what is the best backup apps on the market (reliability, security and wealth of options...).
Regards
Titanium backup for apps
another vote for Titanium Backup- can restore call log + sms + system setting + mms + apps
Play store link for Titanium Backup
TNX both for the advice
I just installed TitaniumBackup PRO 7.3.0 on my rooted Galaxy Note 4 and when I choose the location of the Backup folder in the external SD card (Menu / Configuration / Backup folder location), I get "Unable to write to this folder" message (see image below).
Although SDFix is not necessary, I installed it... same problem.
Any idea?
I got it... Restart after SDFix
