Can installing Mavericks delete all my pics and songs in iphoto

Hi, I have downloaded the OS Mavericks. Now before installing it, it want to confirm what files will be deleted by it, so that i can backup those data.
Those who have already installed it,pls guide me if the files in the sections-Download, Document,Music(iTunes),Pictures(iPhoto) will be be removed after installation or not..
Thanks in advance..

None of your files should be deleted if you're installing on top of a previous OS.
That said, you should always have a back up.

I want to delete all my photos and songs without reformatting

I've started a synch with my computer which I had to abort now I want to clear all the partially downloaded songs and photos and start again. Can I delete all these items without performing a total reset or having to delete them individually?

No.

If you have Downloaded and Upgraded to Lion See...
Here is an excerpt of the SLA; the Lion license (purchased from MAS) is NOT transferable. The SLA is quite clear:
B. If you obtained your license to the Apple Software from the Mac App Store or on Apple-branded physical media, it is not transferable. If you sell your Apple-branded hardware to athird party, you must remove the Apple Software from the Apple-branded hardware beforedoing so, and you may restore your system to the version of the Apple operating systemsoftware that originally came with your Apple hardware (the “Original Apple OS”) andpermanently transfer the Original Apple OS together with your Apple hardware, provided that:(i) the transfer must include all of the Original Apple OS, including all its component parts,printed materials and its license; (ii) you do not retain any copies of the Original Apple OS, fullor partial, including copies stored on a computer or other storage device; and (iii) the partyreceiving the Original Apple OS reads and agrees to accept the terms and conditions of theOriginal Apple OS license.
Now Proceed...
Boot from the original OS installer disk and do an Erase & Install.
When the Mac reboots into Mac Setup Assistant Quit and shut it down.
When the New Owner Boots it up it's a brand new Mac... just like when you got it.
( The Original Install Disc(s) should also be included with the sale )

i plugged my iphone into my computer for the first time to charge it and was in a hurry and walked away, when i returned the add apple i tunes account information screen was up.....
my problem is, all my pictures got deleted from my phone, all my contacts got deleted also......weird thing is it put pictures on my phone from another phone and also txt msg from another phone...... has this ever happened to anyone else? if so,....do you know how, or where the pictures got moved to? and if they were deleted, is there a way to pull deleted pictures form a phones memory?? thank you any body that can give me any assistance....i really need it...

It can't do that by itself. You had to click through several prompts telling it to restore it from a backup of an old phone for that to happen.
If the phone was not backed up to iCloud before this happened, or to another computer, then the data is gone. There is no way to recover it.

Itunes deleted all my playlists and songs

***? man i have over 10000 songs and this piece of **** all of a sudden every time i restart my computer it keeps deleting everytthing what the **** is wrong with this piece of ****!!!!

iTunes cannot delete songs from your computer unless you tell it to. More likely you are losing songs from the library but without more info it's not possible to guess why this should happen.
I would uninstall iTunes then reinstall and let it search for your music automatically.

Are you saying Mavericks deleted the pictures and documents on your phone?

I installed Mavericks a few days ago and downloaded all the available updates, which installed correctly (or so it says). Now I can't open my iPhoto app because it says it's being updated. Any suggestions?

There are two ways to recover from this condition.
1. Select
Store ▹ View My Account
from the App Store menu bar, then select View hidden purchases. Stop or resume the download.
2. Open LaunchPad and find the icon of the app you're trying to install. There will be a small progress bar below it. Click the "X" to stop the download.

If i delete all my apps and install iOS 8 can i put the apps back on when its done

If I delete all my apps and install iOS 8 can I put all those apps that I deleted back on my phone when iOS 8 is done downloading?

Yes as long as your apps have been optimised for iOS 8 you can re install them from cloud in your purchases.

Hope this helps.

Hello caitmcd,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
You can also update the phone through iTunes directly if you have the latest version of iTunes installed, 11.1.
You can download iTunes 11 here if needed:

Next time an app update gets stuck try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons for10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. Wait till your iPad starts on it's own. Try now. Also YouTube is still available. If you can't find it the the app store go to the bottom of the app store page and tap purchased. All your deleted apps will be listed and you can reinstall YouTube from there.

My ipod deleted all my notes and I REALLY need them back! How can I get them back!?

For some reason my ipod touch 5 deleted all my notes and all the mail in my inbox its all gone. I do not have the iOS 6.1 update though. So I dont know how this could have happened. I have not backed up my ipod to my computer since I got it because thats not how I use it. But my sisters ipod 4 also for some reason had my notes downloaded onto hers? And she has recently backed up her ipod on the computer. But once the notes on mine were deleted so were hers. But since she has recently backed hers up maybe I can restore the to her ipod then to mine. If so how would I do this? I really need those notes back they were REALLY important! Thanks!

Your only hope is restoring from the bakup of your sister's iPod. For how see the restoring topic of:
iOS: How to back up

My partner and I share the powerbook and I use my iPad, Though we each log in with separate accounts all my pics and music are in both libraries . Can I isolate accounts from iCloud ?

Not quite sure exactly what you want to do, but you cannot do it on a PowerBook. iCloud requires Lion and Lion requires an Intel MacBook or MacBook Pro.

I deleted all my photos and videos and then delete the deleted files but the photo app is still taking up 12 GB of space and I have no room for new stuff. How can I clear the memory space used by my deleted videos and photos?
