^^ what norwoodesteel said.
When restoring apps, they are probably being restored to internal storage instead of to the sdcard. So you have to stop part way through the process, move the restored apps to your sdcard, then continue restoring. There is an option to restore to external storage, YMMV.
May also be a bad backup
I've had a couple times where restoring got stuck, and when I'd switch to using the non-pro method it would give me a parsing error on the apps it would freeze on. Removing that app from the batch, everything else reinstalled fine.
