Have a lot of apps not yet transferred to iTunes due to memory constraints, but i synced my 4th gen iPod. To update to 5.1, it needs to delete all the apps first, so as long as I synced it, should I be okay? Or do I need to exchange for a 16 gig iPod?

Help!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
Have you backed up your iPod's data to your computer/iCloud? If so, it should be fine to update.
Also, it is possible (If you have iOS 5.0 already) to update iOS on your iPod without the need for iTunes: Check your iPod has more than 50% battery, open 'Settings' on your iPod and tap General > Software Update and iOS 5.1 should be there for you to download and install. That is how I did it and it only takes 5 minutes.
I hope this helps!

  • Using Itunes, I copied all my apps from my Ipod touch to a new Iphone 4. Problem is all the apps on the Iphone are starting up like a new install. I would think my "password" app and "lose it" app would have the past data transferred to the Iphone.

  • Is it possible for deleting all the apps from the appstore which are showing up in the apps not on my phone section. Before I was able to delete them from itunes but now I am not able to find that option.

    You can hide them via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    The 'x' might not show on their top left corner (it might be invisible), but clicking where it should be should hide the app.

  • Ihone 4s lost all contacts. I tried to restore from backup but the error message now says there is not enough room. I have deleted all the apps without making any more room on iphone. Why did contact disappear and how do I get them back?

    In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
    iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.

    You can only sync with one ITunes library. It you switch iTunes library iTunes will erase the iPod and replace it contents with what is in the library of the new computer.

  • ITunes apps won't sync with iPad without deleting all the apps already on the iPad!

    I've been using my iPad with iCloud sync for a while and now have decided to go back to iTunes sync. I have a bunch of apps i downloaded on the iPad from its app store and want to keep them. However, when i go to the Itunes app section (which is grayed out) and select the sync apps button, all the apps on my iPad in the preview screen disappear!!! How can i sync apps from my computer and keep the apps already on the iPad?

    Ditto. Even the new 2.0.1 firmware made no difference. I've had no luck with iTunes in this dept at all. I can download apps to the phone, but they won't sync back to iTunes. If I download apps to iTunes, not only will they not transfer to the phone, but all the apps on the phone get wiped w/o warning.
    I've tried the following per Apple suggestions, but to no avail:
    - Reset iPhone (the home and lock button method)
    - Remove (I manually deleted all content little by little)
    - Reset Settings (done thru software, don't know how this differs from "reset iPhone" above)
    - Restore - a Huge pain in the *** for nothing. Took forever and obviously I then had to manually put all my songs, ringtones, contacts and photos back on it.
    What else is there left to try?

    Are you using a home network?
    Try the following :                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

  • How can I connect my iPhone to my Mac without deleting all the apps on it?

    Last night I bought a bunch of apps using iTunes on my Mac. Then I connected my iPhone and put the apps from the computer onto the iPhone. So far so good.
    Today I opened up iTunes on another Mac and before connecting the phone first selected Store > Check for available downloads. A dialog came up saying "all purchases have been downloaded for this account."
    Under preferences I checked "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.
    I then connected my iPhone to this second Mac and did the update to iOS 4.1.
    (By the way the reason I used the second Mac to do this update was that it failed repeatedly on the first Mac with an error saying something like can't create a session. I went through Apple's related troubleshooting document extremely carefully and methodically, but that didn't help. I then followed the recommendation in that document to try with a second Mac.)
    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Also in iTunes itself on the second computer all my new apps are missing. I looked under the "Library" section in iTunes and a bunch of apps that I've been trying over and over for months to simply delete are present and none of the ones I bought last night are present.
    Questions:
    1. How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
    2. How can I connect my phone to my computer without completely ******* up my phone? Does Apple provide a way to do that?
    3. Is there ANY way that I can effectively control what is and is not on my phone (apps, videos, etc.) or is that just supposed to be sort of random?
    By the way it appears that Apple doesn't allow "potty words" on its forum because we all are, after all, six year olds. So just to be clear, what I MEANT and what I WROTE was "eff u cee kay i en gee up my phone."

    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Look on other screens. The 4.1 update ands Game Center to the home screen. If that screen was full it create a blank screen and moves one app from the home screen to the new screen to make room for Game Center. All the other screens are pushed back one place.

    If they are really gone, you can download them again. You will not be charged again if you use the same iTunes account.

  • Is it possible to delete all the apps that arn't on my ipod from iTunes?

    Hi i have many apps. And when i say many i mean 513 apps (i had atleast 700 at once but my 32gb ipod became full)
    I was just wondering if it is possible to select all of the apps that are not on my ipod because i have deleted them and then delete them from iTunes but still keep the files.
    I found one way were i would open up the list of apps in a new window, connect my ipod so it is not syncing and then scroll through the list on my ipod finding apps that dont have a tick them finding them in the apps library in the other windows and deleting them but this is taking AGES!
    Is there a quicker way of selecting them and pressing delete but still keeping the files because i have a backup problem and need to remove all of the apps and i cannot be bothered to write down the ones i have ticked and the ones i dont have ticked when i can just remove the ones that arn't ticked then untick them all backup my ipod add 50 apps then back up again and then 50 more etc.
    The reason i am backing up like this is because i have done it before because my backups for itunes always screw up and this fixed it last time but i had to go through the list of apps and select ones i want and ones i dont want.
    PLZ HELP ME IT WOULD SAVE ME ALOT OF TIME!!
    btw yes my ipod button is stuck i am thinking of using alcohol but i will have to talk to my dad before doing that

    It sounds like a remote erase was sent via 'Find My Mac', to check please go to www.icloud.com and login. Is there any data there?
    If it was a remote erase only someone who had the ID and password could have done it. And in that case the data is gone, it is not recoverable I'm afraid.

  • ITunes deleted all the apps on my Touch

    I'm not an experienced iTunes user, but over the past few years, i've spent a fair amount of money on apps that are now gone. Also, all my Contacts, all my Notes. Apple must have a record of the apps I've purchased. Is there any way to get them back ?

  • I need to delet all the other person who have my apple ID

    i dont know how to delet the other persone who have my apple ID .

    What do you mean 'delete the other person' ? If you mean that somebody else is using your account your account's password e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and tapping on 'view apple id' on the popup and logging into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • ITunes deleted all my apps after I clicked "Cancel" to sync apps

    I'm at work and I wanted to do some serious app re-arranging.  Rather than doing it manually on my iPhone5, I luanched iTunes.  Note: I do *not* sync my iPhone with my work computer, but I thought maybe it could still rearrange the apps since I can see them all nicely there in iTunes.  So here were my exact steps:
    plug in my iPhone
    launch into iTunes
    click on my iPhone device
    click on the "Apps" tab
    re-arrange my Apps in a different order
    checked other tabs (Tones, Music, Movies, etc) and confirmed *none* are set to sync
    clicked "Sync"
    Aside: Now before you jump on the "you're an idiot bus" (still quite likely), I *did* know that this might not be a great idea.  However, I  remember accidentally clicking "sync" on a foreign computer in the past, and I remember it always asked me before doing anything destructive, so I decided it was a safe thing to try.
    Anyway, back to iTunes... after I clicked "Sync", this happened:
    iTunes popped up a prompt saying something along the lines of "this device is not synced with this computer, if you sync apps, it will delete all the apps on the device and replace them with the apps on this computer" with options to "sync" or "cancel".
    I clicked "Cancel"
    iTunes popped up another prompt saying something like "this computer is not authorized with the iTunes account for the device" with options to "authorize" or "cancel".
    I clicked "Cancel"
    At this point I EXPECTED to get a message saying iTunes could not sync the device, but INSTEAD, iTunes continued doing *something*.
    By the time it was done, almost all of my App Store apps were completely wiped off my phone.  What's really odd is that some were left behind.  My phone is now in this state:
    native Apple apps (phone, messages, etc) and all their data (call logs, texts, etc) are still intact
    almost all purchased apps are gone
    none of the purchased apps that were left behind are on the computer, so that doesn't explain why they didn't get deleted with the rest
    So, what the HECK happened here?  Why did iTunes destroy all my apps when I told it not to?  Has anyone else had this problem?  Is this some strange iTunes bug that there's a magical fix to get all my apps back?  Please help.
    iTunes Version: 11.1.3
    Device: iPhone5, iOS 6.1

    go into the itunes store, go to your account, click purchase history. that gives you a list of all the things you have downloaded.
    you will be able to re-download all your apps for free.
    and for the songs, click "report problem", this will allow you to email apple, tell them that you have lost your songs, they will usually respond fairly quickly saying that they have put the songs back into your account and that they will be available to download the next time you go into itunes.

  • I want to delete all my apps

    Hi
    I have itunes on a mac and the kids have 408 apps on my computer. Of which things like 4 different types/copies of a battery status are clearly not needed. I want to blitz them all and just delete the lot. However, they both have purchased items that clearly I would want to recover. Is there an easy way of getting rid of all these "rubbish" apps that they don't use without losing the purchased items. Please go easy as I am pretty useless with this type of stuff.
    Ta
    Chris

    Actually, you asked about deleting without losing some.
    "Is there an easy way of getting rid of all these "rubbish" apps that they don't use without losing the purchased items"
    But no matter.
    You can delete all the apps then in the App store, select Purchased at the bottom and download the purchases you want.
    But selectively deleting would be much quicker.
    You would still have to wade through everything to find what you want to redownload.

  • How Delete all the data in all BI Models, just the data but not the model

    Hi Gurus,
    i need to delete all the data of the cubes, PSA , etc , all the data of this models but not the model, how can i do this in a fast way? though a program? thanks

    Hi,
    I would prefer process chain, not program.
    Create new process chain include data target deletion component and PSA deletion component.  (Include corrosponding DSO/Cube/PSA names).
    Run process chain.
    Else you can search for FMs to delete contents from your targets.
