Does setting an iPod touch back to its original settings remove music and photos?

I'm having problems with my ipod and was wondering if restoring it to original setting would help, but would that remove music and photos? or is there a way i could save them?
Thanks

  • Pictures was block how can i retrive it or back ot its original settings?

    its started went i want to erase one of the tag pictures for me,i want to delete it because i dont know that person.but i dont have the way to erase so i decided to block it.unfortunately all my pictures in my albums was not viewed by myself.how can i back it to original settings?thank you and more power!

    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (<i>Site Identification</i> icon) on the left side of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Open the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    *You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions

  • Can iPod Touch be infected through the transfer of mp3 and photos?

    Can iPod Touch be infected through the transfer od mp3 an photos?

    Anything is possible but I am not aware of it happening.  What is possible is to get an infected item on the iPod where it will cause no problem and then transfer it to a PC where it could cause a problem.

  • IPod touch issues since OS5: mis-filing of music and regualr crashes

    Since upgrading my iPod touch to iOS5 I've had a few problems. Firstly the music cataloguing has gone haywire filing songs and albums etc under the wrong letters of the alphabet. Reset, erase, re-synch hasn't solved it. Un-checking all music synch options and then synching to erase all music followed by rechecking and resynching solved the issue a few weeks ago. But today I just added 3 CDs to my iTunes library and once synched the mis-filing has started again. It's also become noticeably slower reacting: it almost seems to stutter between selecting a track to play and moving to the now playing screen and starting to play.
    Has anyone else had this problem? And does anyone know how to solve it permanently?

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

    You can do it at an Apple store by making an appointment:
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    or send it in to Apple. See:

  • Im trying to set my ipad back to its factory settings and in doing so Itunes seems to be unable to activate it. It says "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time" which makes no complete sense to me. Any thoughts?

    I recently got this Ipad2 in hopes for a working device. I had originally stated it up by syncing it on my sisters pc but by doing so the app store on the Ipad automatically gave me her husbands Apple ID instead of my own. I'm well aware that by syncing with her Itunes library something like this may have come as a result of it. So, I took it home and tried reseting it to its factory settings so that I was able to put up my own Apple ID and download some fun and helpful apps. I connected it to my notebook and had Itunes reset it which made it download something that took more than half an hour to do. It had told me that once it was done downloading this it would automaticlly set the Ipad back to its original state. It did no such thing. Now im trying to start the thing up and Itunes keeps telling me its unable to do so at this time. If you have had a similar situation and know of a possible solution please respond to my question. Much appreciated.

    Try a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

    The iPod backup that iTunes makes includes Notes.and other app data. However, it does not included synced media like apps and music.
    Thus, just restore from backup with all your synced media in your iTunes library.

    Try:

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
