If you have epub and pdf files on your computer and you imported them to iTunes by way of file sharing or iTunes sync options, you don't need to back them up in iTunes or another program. iTunes does not backup stuff that syncs/imports with iTunes. For example, if you had to restore the iOS device, the restore function uses the backup, which is the latest iOS version, and all the small bits of data such as messages, settings, etc. Then it will run a sync that brings in your content. So, for your non Apple purchased items, use a external hard drive to back them up. I also have my pdf files in Good reader, they are on my rMBP as I imported them to Goodreader, and I have them on another backup drive too

Jeanette,
Check out a program called Disk Aid for the Mac. I use it to back up data from apps on my iPhone and iPad all the time.

Also have .pdf files in IBooks that I would like to back up. I did backup my ipad using ITunes to the Mac, but....I have no idea where it went and I don't think it did the Marvin or Kindle apps. I am new to apple and transitioning from PC/android platform. Thanks! Jeanette
