is there any way to quickly backup like, all save data of every installed game (minus i'd guess dsi and gba stuff) for an eventual system transfer?
i wouldn't mind having to reinject the saves on a per case basis later, but the thought of having to back 140 or so titles manually makes my head spin

Press R on the title select menu and everything should turn red. Hit Y and it will grab the data for anything it can open. Save + Extdata.

Where will these backups be stored?

I hit Y while the cursor is on a title, but I could not find the backups on my sd card in sd:/JKSV/Saves/<title>.
I did not press R, because I only want to backup a specific title with the auto backup function. How can I do that?

You have to select it first with L, then Y. It should turn red when you hit L. R is a shortcut for select all.

Maybe your games uses ExtData instead of Saves, like Monster Hunter Generations.

JK, Thank you so much for this wonderful app. I'd like to humbly make a couple suggestions.
1) Autobackup on any save restore. Would have saved my bacon here and there...
2) System App Autoback functionality like for Games, so I can just hit save, and it saves in a date folder.

Bug(?): When you have no sd/cia titles installed the popout saying "No installed titles were found" doesnt go away after pressing A or touching the button
Using a9lh o3ds xl , jk save manager cia version
I am experiencing this same bug with the latest version, with the same a9lh o3ds, JK Save Manager cia version installed using FBI QR code, and I have two SD/CIA titles installed using CIA, as dumped using Hourglass9.

E: Never mind, I forgot to scan for titles first. But it's still sticking on the "No installed titles were found." dialog when I select SD/CIA without scanning first.

Quick question regarding the save manager. I downloaded the 3dsx file and tried to export the extra data for my fire emblem fates cartridge. When I selected to export the extra data though, it just showed "new" in green letters, and the 3ds froze. Got any ideas as to what I did wrong?

You must put it in sdmc:/3ds/JKSM/JKSM.3dsx

Hi, can I use JKSM to get game save data from an old SD card I used before I modded my 3DS?
If you formatted and when you use the card the data doesn't show up, nope.

What do I want to be using to do this, then? Is it possible to get the saves off of the SD card?
Those saves are encrypted. Unless you have a NAND backup of before you formatted, I know no way of decrypting them.

Sorry for asking this for third time, but...

Is this savemanager going to work someday with Rhythm Thief (Europe)?

It's an old game from early 2012, it uses 2.0 or 3.0 of 3DS firmware, I need to transfer my save from my digital copy to the physical cartridge, but any of they work, both get a yellow screen.

I use the .3dsx and it works with another titles but not this one, I would really apreciate if anyone can research about this kind of save for this savemanager, isn't the full compatibility the goal? I mean, if you people know where are the errors, you can complete it before trying to research game by game.

Thank you for everyone who have helped me in the past or the future with this :)

Hi there, nice work, it works great to backup my save files and transfer them from my 3DSs!

But, i also have and issue and i want to know if is possible to solve with de savemager. Theres is the thing: i have an unlocked "original" New3DSXL with a digital copy of Animal Crossing and since it is my favorite game and i have 800h+ save file in there i would like to storage this save file on a physical Animal Crossing cartrigde, so i can be able to play that save file in any 3DS, even the unlocked ones.

There is any way i can instal homebrew or savemager without full unlock the 3DS (like only install homebrew)? And the savemager can help me on that?

Thanks!

Update for anyone wondering: I've got a lot going on right now. I'm not ignoring you guys, I just haven't been able to sit down and go at it too much lately.

@Tiffxs
If you can use the CIA, you can just pop the cart in and backup from the SD copy and move it to the cart no problem. 3DSX would just require targeting the digital copy first, then the cart.

@Feroz El Mejor
The game might need an mmap XML even if it's not a 9.6+ title. I know there are a few games that never worked quite right with *hax.
