Deleting and keeping data in iPhone tradein

I'm in the process of trading in my current iPhone 5. I have a considerable amount of semi-confidential data that I keep on my iPhone. I'd like to be able to transfer this info to my new iPhone when I purchase it, but I obviously want to physically delete it from the old phone before handing it over in the trade. Is there a simple way to do this? If I delete the confidential info before I go to store to trade in, will I be able to restore the data via iTunes without messing things up.

Yes, back-up your device using iTunes or iCloud. Then, before trading in your phone, turn off Find My iPhone and then wipe the device under Settings > General > Reset.

Reinstall Windows and iTunes and keep data on Iphone

I'm going to wipe my Windows 7 system and reinstall. I know that when I install iTunes it will want to wipe my device to synk. I would like to backup ALL files related to itunes so that when I reinstall, I can copy the files back over and not lose anything. Other than the following windows folders: program files, my music, appdata, are there any additional files? I'm having trouble finding the ones for my phone. Where are these files located? I could care less about music as I have all this stored elsewhere, but I care about the saved data within my apps on my phone I do not want this resetting. Please help me avoid a wipe of my phone.
Thank you

Nevermind, I was able to figure it out from some other posts. AUthorized new installation, found old music files, consolidated into my library. Seem to have lost my playlists, but no big deal.

When i go to sync my apps with my computer it tells me ''are you sure you want to sync apps ? all exsisting apps and there data on (iphone) will be replaced with the apps on this itunes library'' does this mean all my data will be lost if i continue ?

Regarding your broken, previously authorized computer, here's how that works:
You would authorize your new computer -- maybe you've done that already. Then you will have two computers authorized. Apple allows you to have up to five computers authorized at any time. If you get to five, you can then go to your account details in iTunes and remove all authorizations.
Bear in mind this is not saying you can synch to more tham one library. Razmee209 and gdgmacguy's comments above are correct. But if Apple only allowed you to authorize one computer at a time, then having a broken computer would mean you could no longer use your Apple ID with iTunes.

Photoshop Elements diagog box is frozen and I can't get it to close. Do I delete and up date to a high version? I've been getting along fine until yesterday - not sure what happened

Photoshop Elements 3 dialog box with picture and patent numbers - not sure how to get it fixed. It's in an infinite loop - have rebooted to no avail. Should I update to a higher version after deleting this version?

Tried the resetting options, but can't even get to preferences - nothing
will open. May have to find my Version 3 CD, or delete Photoshop 3 and get
a higher version.

How to find when and what date my iphone was first switched on from a retailer

Depending on the Code version you are running you can look for this output . It will show when a SFP was removed and inserted.

Help! I am giving away my iPhone 3Gs to my sister along with it's data plan, I want to delete my iCloud account on this phone, will delete my iCloud account too? And what about deleting my personal datas on iPhone, will it delete my data on iTunes?

Help! I am giving away my iPhone 3Gs to my sister along with it's data plan. I want to delete all of my personal data on my phone, will it delete my data on iTunes too? And same goes for iCloud; I want to delete my acount on my phone because, I guess this is a more convenient way to delete my personal data but I'm not sure if it will delete my iCloud account too or not because I'm getting an iPhone 4S and I'm hoping, the back up data like games & apps and music on my 3Gs will be transfered to 4S.
Thanks!

All you have to do is this: Sync your 3GS to create a current backup. Then either: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings or restore it as a "New" device in iTunes. Both accomplish the same thing, erasing all of your data & settings from the phone. You can now give it to your sister, she can plug it into her computer, name it what she wants & sync her content to it. You then restore your 4S from the backup of the 3GS you created when you started. Follow this by syncing your content to your new phone & your 4S will look just like your 3GS.

How to delete diagnostic and usage data on iPhone 5s without resetting the phone

In my iPhone 5s I would like to--- remove the long list of, diagnostic and usage data ,---without resting the phone.
Any way out.
I tried selecting each one and deleting, but not possible.

Thanking you in advance.

Resetting the phone (pressing and holding the Home and power buttons until the Apple appears), doesn't delete any data.
To the best of my knowledge, the only way to delete those files is by restoring the phone.

TS1503 what is the maximum number of pictures I can store and keep on my iPhone 3G?

What is the maximum number of pictures I can store (and keep indefinitely) on my iPhone 3GS (8GB)?

It is a balancing act between your photos and everything else you have on the device (apps, mail, messages, etc.), so there is no specific "number" we can give you. Just keep track of your available memory, and make sure you back up your photos regularly so if you reach the maximum memory capacity, you can delete the oldest ones without worrying that they are not saved somewhere else:

Deleted emails keep reappearing on iPhone

Ever since updating to iOS 4.2.1, I'm having a problem with deleted emails reappearing on my iPhone 3G.
I have deleted these emails a dozen times. They are also deleted from the server, so they're not being re-downloaded.
I have rebooted and reset the phone. I have deleted and re-created the email account. The emails keep coming back. I have about 25 of them now and they just won't go away, like zombies back from the dead.
My email is a POP account at comcast.net. (IMAP is apparently not available for this account.)
Any ideas on how to permanently expunge these deleted emails?

I too am losing my mind. Tried initial reboot, etc. Then last night restored and reloaded/synced. On my POP account (earthlink) I continue to get it repopulating every time I delete an email. My resetting everything effectively wiped out my accrued emails which was fine since I pick them up on my laptop or via web if need be. But the 4 new emails CANNOT STAY DELETED!
So restoring wasn't an effective option.

Need to DELETE and LOAD data of the Last month to

Hi Experts,
I need to delete the last month data from cube because One material is not updated with a Required value. We have made some changes in Update routine for a Value. The Same change must be reflected from last month of data ,
So I need to delate the data based on selection. And reload the data again. And the data flows from
                                           2LIS_13_VDITM (Info Source ) to ZSD_C03 (Info Cube).
I read many SDN threads, but I am getting confused.
How can I proceed for these ?
Thanks,
Utpal.

And I need to delete data from 2LIS_13_VDITM data source . How Can I proceed for the current issue   ?
Please suggest   ...

Video and GPS data from iPhone movie?

Hi, I have following problem/ idea for a solution: I lost the canopy of by model airplane during a flight in a wheat field. Now I am looking for a solution to find it: what about a video camera and a GPS device, flying over the field, recording video and GPS data, play back video and (hopefully) find the canopy at frame xyz. Then read out the GPS position at this frame and go back in the field to the GPS coordinates and find what I lost.
So the questions are:
1. are the Video recordings stamped (?) with a continuous GPS position
2. can this data be read out
3. is there an app that can do this
4. is this the correct forum for this question?
Thanks for any ideas
BTW: I already tried to order a new canopy, no luck...

Let me get this straight... You lost the canopy for your model airplane... Now you want to strap your iPhone to another model airplane and fly it all over in the area where you lost the canopy.
Piece of advice: Make sure you set up find my iPhone on it before you send it out on its mission. you may need it, in combination with its ability to emit an alarm when triggered remotely, to find the iPhone after it falls off the search plane.
With luck, the fallen iPhone will land near the canopy you seek.
To try and answer the questions:
1. I believe the entire recording gets 1 location coded in the metadata. It is not a continuous stream of location data.
2. Not relevant based on the answer to 1.
3. I seriously doubt it, but I won't be shocked if someone has come up with something among the half million or so apps out there.
4. I don't think there is a correct forum for this, but this works as well as any.

HT204085 How can we delete all the data from iphone keychain of all the apps?

Is it possible to delete all the data from keychain? Cleaning keychain, which delete all the item stored in keychain of all the applications on iDevices. Programatically can we do it?

Depends whether you have selected Lock when Full or Wrap when Full for the Buffer Mode. If you have selected Lock When Full, the capture will stop when the the buffer is full. You can then Save the Buffer and download it in the form of sniffer file and start you capture again. This will over write the old data. If you have selected Wrap when Full, then it will continue the capture when the buffer is full. The oldest packets are discarded as new packets arrive.

Hello jennywijaya,
I would be concerned too if I was not able to backup my iPhone. I recommend the following article for troubleshooting backup issues with iTunes:

If you are still unable to update after creating the backup, I recommend the following article:

Deleting and Syncing Photos on iPhone doesn't work or is stuck

I have around 3000 photos on my iPhone (all albums from Apterture synched via iTunes). I intend to delete all of them. It does not work if I choose to uncheck the synch photos feature in iTunes and also if I check it but have no albums/projects selected.
Instead the last step of the iTunes sync (importing photos) runs forever, even through a whole night. And I still have my photo albums which should not be on the iPhone an more.
Any idea or help? Thank you.

Check the settings of the side switch:
Settings>General. Be sure that the side switch is set to screen lock rather than mute.
