No, but is something goes wrong with the installation you will wish you had a backup, so make one before upgrading.

  • How to wipe off everything from my 15 MacBook Pro? I bought my Mac in Middle 2010. It was with OS X Snow Leopard, and a few months ago, I installed the Lion, so I couldn't just insert the CD and reinstall.

    Yes, you can and should. The DVD belong with the MBP. You should use the original DVD to erase the disk and install Snow Leopard prior to sale.
    You can't sell it with Lion because it is authorized under your user ID.

  • How do I erase ALL the files on my MacBook Pro?

    I've just gotten a new MacBook Air and successfully migrated all my data from my MacBook Pro. Now I'd like to clean up my MacBook Pro for my son. I don't want to erase all the applications, but I do want to erase all my files. Is there an easy way to it?

    Easiest thing to do is create a new Admin account, login using that account, then delete your old Admin & user accounts. All your apps will still be present, but your user data & files will be gone.

  • Erase Data Securely from MacBook Pro

    I have a summer 2009 model MacBook Pro that I want to sell. How do I securely erase all personal data from the MacBook Pro?

    Don't forget to deauthorize the computer from iTunes if you have an iTunes account.
    Good luck!

    Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
    Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
    If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
    Let us know how you get on.

  • HT1212 Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed?

    Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed? I do not think it has been synced with a computer before.

    Disabled
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
    Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.
    Otherwise y will have to restore and thus erase the iPod
    You can restore from backup
    If not in backup then:
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    - Maybe from the restored iPod via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

  • I am thinking of updating to the newest version for my Mac Laptop. I have the 10.6.8 should I update to the Mountain Lion OS X? If I update will I loose all my data, like documents, music, pictures?

    Wondering if I should update my Mac Notebook which is a 10.6.8 versions to the newest Mountain Lion version? What are the positive and negatives about the new version? Also if I update will I loose all the date on my computer like documents, music, pictures etc..? 

    First check the Compatibility of your Mac...
    Upgrade to Mountain Lion
    Then... Before attempting any Major Upgrade... get yourself an External Hard Drive... and create a Bootable Clone Backup of your current Hard Drive...
    By far the easiest way to make such a Backup, is to use something like
    SuperDuper  http://www.shirt-pocket.com/
    or CCC  http://www.bombich.com/
    That way, should anything untoward happen during the Upgrade,
    you will NOT LOSE ANYTHING.
    (Get an EHD that is at least equal to your current Drive...)
    Also, Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using...

    No you will not lose any data. However a pop up will come up telling you if you want to sync with this computer, and that if you do, that it will erase the data. Just click "No" and you can still update your phone. I've done this a few times.

  • HT2534 Hi, if I create a new iTunes Store etc account to access a European iTunes store, will this wipe all the apps I've downloaded via my UK AppleID (which I'm using across 3 different devices)?

    NB. the app I'm initially interested in downloading for is the paid global/worldwide BBC iPlayer app that's only accessible outside the UK, if that helps.

    Hi ...

    Yes.
    And, your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • If i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

    if i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

    Depends on how you do it
    If you create a partition with Boot Camp and format that partition correctly
    Then install Windows your data should not be touched
    If you do anything wrong or there is any mishap during the whole procedure you could lose everything
    Hence the reason I suggest that you backup first
