How to Use Kies to back up and restore your Samsung mobile
Samsung Kies desktop software can sync your Samsung smartphone or tablet to your computer. If you haven't used Kies before, then you may not know that it can also back up the data on your Samsung device. With a Google account, a lot of your data already syncs with Google's servers, but Kies can also back up Samsung-specific apps, like S Planner and S Memo, which come on the Galaxy S3.
Back ups
Step 1: After installing Kies Windows or Mac on your computer, connect your Samsung smartphone or tablet to your computer via a USB data cable.
Step 2: Confirm that Kies is connected to your Samsung device. Once connected, you'll see basic information about your device in the first tab.
Step 4: Wait for your backup to finish, then click the Complete button.
Step 1: In the Back up/Restore tab, scroll all the way to the bottom and click the Restore button. When you get the warning message about closing running applications, click Continue.
Step 4: Once the restore completes, you'll see a confirmation dialog box, and your device will reboot.
Now you know how to back up and restore your Samsung mobile device using Kies and your computer. We've confirmed that Kies works with a Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone and a Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet.
