Right click device - Transer Purchases, will do the same as backing up the .ipa's, but as stated above, you will probably lose all your game saves unfortunately.

Sometimes, on numerous occasions, u don't even need to backup, just restoring in iTunes will do it(this only happens when u are upgrading from let say 4.1 to 4.2 something in that scenario) but as always, it's good to backup

*****Hit the THANKS button if I helped*****
