Do i lose my calender content if i update my ipad software
Hi can u help me?im not sure but will i lose my calender, note content if i update my ipad software. Thanks
You should not lose any data when you update. However, glitches do happen, and losing data is one of those glitches that some people have experienced with the iOS 5 upgrade. To protect against that, you'll want to make sure you've got your calendars well backed-up. If you're syncing your iPad with a Mac, open iCal on your Mac and export all your calendars before upgrading, and if there are any problems, you can re-import them.

Why didn't you warn me that I would lose all my bookmarks when I updated my iPad software?
I just upgraded my iPad to the new software and when I went to Safari, all of my bookmarks are gone. Why the **** didn't I get a warning about this before the update? Every time I update software on my iPhone or iPad, something gets f***ed up. For a company that makes such good toys, why can't they update their software half as good as Microsoft?
You are not talking to Apple in these forums. We are all end-users like you.
This is the route to get feedback to Apple employees involved in product development and evolution:

HT4559 Will I lose my apps when I update my iPad software from 4.3.2 to ios5?
I cannot join the cloud until I update my software but there is a warning about losing apps, etc, for versions less than 4.3.3 when updating to ios5. Anyone know more about this?
You backup to iTunes. You have to use your computer in order to update so I assume that you are using iTunes.
What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings - along with other items - so make sure you backup first.
If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
Transfer purchases.

I have an iPhone 4 (IOS 4.3.1) and it was synced and backed up today.
I wanted to upgrade to the latest ios on iTunes (today's date is 3rd Jan 2013), it seemed to download ok (it took about 30 minutes or so), but when it tried to update onto the iPhone (I think this was what it was doing!) I got an error message that had code 3014 in it. Nowhere on Apple's website can I find a way to resolve this error code.
I then thought I would just try again from the beginning, but I then got an error message saying that if I continued I would lose all the contents on my iPhone so I cancelled it as I don't want to lose everything on my phone.
Can anyone help me as I am not very good at technical things and I really want to upgrade the ios on my iPhone without losing all the data I have on there already. An idiots guide would be great.
Thanks.Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.

Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

So it seems that a LOT of people have been having this problem. (Being...)
Credit card being declined.
I have had 2 different indicators from iTunes that something I have done is wrong.
1. iTunes does not accept my security code.
-This could be caused by the details held by my card's company/bank not having the corresponding details on file.
This is not the case.
2. It mentioned that because my account had been accessed from another source (my iPhone) I now had to re enter my details to continue making purchases (which includes updating apps on iPhone).
So I re entered my details. Then a notification also came up telling me that I had an outstanding balance that had to be paid (honest mistake though I'd love to know how exactly anyone comes to owe iTunes) and that this particular payment source had been declined and I must enter valid details.
Well thats weird, because this card IS valid.
So here's how I see whats happened. I've tried to make a purchase. The payment was processed via my >>>DEBIT<<< MasterCard and was declined because I didn't have enough funds. This is fine. This happens all the time. Its cash. You go to pay for something, "you don't have enough, oh well you don't get the product". Except it would seem that iTunes has seen this as "Your credit card has declined, well, you must be some poor bloke who we may have some problem getting payment from so were going to put a hold on ALL future purchases you try to make on this card."
Oh, that's okay! I'll just go to my wallet and get another one of my 1,000,000 other credit cards I have and just use that. That's right, I don't have one.
It would have been fine if iTunes allowed you to just select "none" as a payment method because that way I could re-enter my card details (which now has money in it) and it would be processed just fine. But no. iTunes will no longer accept my card and my account and all of it's apps have been put on hold.
My only choice seems to be to apply for a credit card for the sake of a 99c app. Brilliant.so now I have to close an account I've held for 5 years and lose all my content...... am I right?
No.
I suggest you contact iTunes support.
-> http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and was declined because I didn't have enough funds. This is fine. This happens all the time. Its cash.
I wouldn't say "this is fine" and it is not cash.
In many places, attempting to use a debit card with no funds (even if you don't know there are no funds) is fraud and is illegal. -
Does anybody know what I can do to update my ipad without losing all my data. I am trying to update my current version to the 5.1 version and it keeps giving a error message stating that "an error has occured with the back up and if I continue I will lose all content. Will I be able to get my stuff back such as games, music, aps, etc back after I finish or will they be lost forever. Can somebody please help me I am lost and not sure where to get support on this issue.
Thank you so much
AliciaIf you continue and you lose everything, you will be able to download most of the content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. You can read this about downloading past purchases.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
But before you continue and lose everything, try this.
Eject your iPad, quit iTunes and restart your computer. Then launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. See if you have mutliple iPad backups showing in there. If you have multiple backups, delete all but one of them. Also check the box at the bottom that turns off auto sync .... Prevent iPods ......Click OK and Then quit iTunes.
Connect the iPad again and launch iTunes. Right click on your iPad name on the left side of iTunes and select backup. See if the iTunes will create a backup. If it does, after it finishes, click on the Summary Pane on the right and click on check for update. Try to update again.
If it all goes OK, after you update the iOS you can back to Edit>Preferences>Devices and turn on atuo sync again - assuming that is how you want to sync. -

TS3999 OS 7.1 Update vs Ipad Calender
Since the OS 7.1 update, my IPAD calender has not been displaying the correct month in the upper left hand corner when changing or swiping months - calender is a month either ahead or behind. Has anyone else noticed this problem?
If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless... Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this. -

Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
Error 50: This error (and error -50) are timeout errors. Follow the steps for errors 13 or 14 above.

I want to upgrade iOS from 5 to 6, but when I go to synch everything in preparation, it tells me I will lose all my stuff on the iPhone and iPad which is/are unique. How can I backup or do a "real synch" (both sides have same data at end of process) and then upgrade?
You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.
