How do I save an image from LifeCast Lite?
I have an image in the old LifeCast version (now renamed LifeCast Lite) that I want to save/transfer to my computer in its _original quality_. Where is the image saved? How do I extract it from the iPhone backup on my Mac (or directly from the iPhone)?
There are a number of ways to dig into the backup files in /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application\ Support/MobileSync/Backup/xxxxxxx, but so far I've not found the image. How do I access the image saved in LifeCast Lite?

Inappropriate?Lifecast (lite) should save all images you to to your camera roll, accessed via your iPhone photos application. This was a relatively new feature however, so depending on the version you are running this might not have be happening for you.
Retrieval of your images by digging through the backups isn't supported by us - but if you want to try anyway, LifeCast saves images in numerically ascending order, within a folder for each LifeCast you have. So your first LifeCast data is in a folder called '1', and the photos you take are called '1.png', '2.png' etc. Thumbnails are also created, called '1_t.png', '2_t.png', etc.
Quite how this is saved into the .mdbackup files on your computer, I don't know. Apple doesn't provide developers with any information about the on-desktop backups that iTunes makes.
