Titanium backup not restoring sd app data

Hi,
So on my old nexus galaxy, I backed up a couple of my apps with Titanium backup (minecraft, keepsafe). I then uploaded the titanium backup folder to dropbox. When I got my nexus 4 I downloaded the copy of the backup folder from dropbox, and then I restored the two apps app and data. The app restores fine, but there is NO data from the apps. For example I go to the Minecraft worlds folder and its empty. Does titanium not backup data on sd cards? The backup zips seem to be large...
THanks,
Michael

Titanium will backup the app and it's data, it will not backup and restore anything saved to an SD card, which is where that type of game data would reside.

Try creating a game and saving it. Once you find it, copy the files from your sd card to the folder where your new save was created.

Preferences > Backup app external data > Enabled (Always). Do that and SD data will be backed up

[Q] Nandroid backups and files on internal storage

Hi,
Suppose I do a nandroid backup of my ROM, I want to know if files such as music, photos and such are backed up too. If I delete them/format the internal storage, and restore the nandroid (of course I'll backup the nandroid backup on the computer first ), will those files be restored too?

Nope. Check how big your Nandroid backup is..
It backs up your system settings + rom + data (messages, call logs, etc). Not your /sdcard.

Well you dont need to restore contacts from a nandroid backup.Simply export the .vcf file to sd card and whenever needed,restore them

if you want to just backup efs go to custom backup and choose what you want
