    it takes hours
    it does not damage or wear out hardware
    and you can restore any backup afterwards as yo see fit

  • How long does it take to delete all the files in a lost MacBook Pro?

    How long does it take to delete all the files in a lost MacBook Pro?

    Quite a while since there may be 1/2 million files or more to delete. There is only one quick way, and that is to reformat the drive.

  • I lost my iPhone, but it's been more than 24 hours so iCloud won't let me see the last known location of the device, and i need the map of it's last know location to find the phone, how do i get the map of it's last known location?

    I lost my iPhone, but it's been more than 24 hours so iCloud won't let me see the last known location of the device, and i need the map of it's last know location to find the phone, how do i get the map of it's last known location?

    It's not likely to re-connect to a network lying on the ground somewhere and getting rained on, it would be really great if I could see that map again so I could use it's last known location to find it.  Kind of pointless to have a 24 hr killswitch deadline.  If I had known I would have taken a screen-shot while I still had access to the information.  Since I lost the phone at Canada's Wonderland (which is now closed for the season) I don't have access to the location where I lost the phone (under a roller-coaster probably), and so I wanted to send the Lost And Found people a screen-shot of it's last known location, but I guess I can't do that now.  (Apple are big jerks)

  • How long should it take to restore all your apps on an iPhone 4?

    I had my phone replaced today because it was broken and all my texts and apps that came with the phone have restored, but none of my photos or game apps have downloaded...

    Did you have the games and photos backed up on your computer?

  • How long does it takes for iTunes to restore software on a 5s?

    How long does it takes for iTunes to restore software in a iPhone?

    There are three major portions involved in a restore:
    1.  Downloading the latest copy of iOS to your Mac for installation on the iPhone.
    2.  Installing the software from your Mac onto the iPhone.
    3.  Restoring all the contents of your iPhone (except iOS, which was done in the above step).
    Step 1 will depend on your Mac's download speed.  We are talking about downloading more than 1GB.
    Step 2 should take about 10 minutes or less.
    Step 3 will depend on how much personal stuff (e.g., apps, photos, music) you had on your iPhone.  It might take minutes, or an hour or more.

    You can turn it off and charge it or turn it on  and charge it. No need to turn it off actually.

    It depends on the charge level before start charging.

  • How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone?

    How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone? It's been 3 hours and it is stuck in the same part of the download.

    I now have the new phone. The order number is still not appearing on My 02.
    It turns out that when I bought the phone, it was assigned a new sim card/telephone number. Now there are two phone numbers on my o2 account - the one I use, the one that came with the new phone.
    The order number is appearing under the new sim card's phone number, not the one I intend to use.
    Hopefully, O2'll be able to update the order and link it to the telephone number I use. It's not a major problem (at all) but I'd rather have it connected to the number I use than a random number that came with the phone.

  • "How long does it take to do a dist-upgrade on your distro?"

    Yesterday there was a question in the USALUG.org "How long does it take to do a dist-upgrade on your distro?"
    This question was a good question, so I decide to make the ultimate test. I have a lot of computers standing here around, and remembered that on one of them was have already Archlinux installation. I was right, when I booted, the system check said me, that the system was 253 days not checked anymore. I got so excited that I forgot to check was it one of my 0.7.2 Gimmick or 0.8 Voodoo installations.

    After reboot the system loads all new applications with out any problem. Later I replaced the intel-video driver "xf86-video-i810 1.7.4-6" with the driver xf86-video-intel 2.2.0-2. No problems at all.

    definitely. By contrast, here's a regular upgrade on my debian box -- out of the blue it's having some problem with one of the packages, and it's turning into a regular recursive nightmare.

    It's so "delicate" and temperamental compared to the no-nonsense, straightforward approach of Arch. If one little thing is off, the entire system has a hissy-fit and won't do anything until you hunt the internet high and low searching for a solution, encountering all the debian hawks along the way who are ready to rip your head off at the first suggestion that debian isn't directly from god and could have a problem. Imo, Arch is the best linx distro hands down. Nothing else even comes close.

  • So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher ...

    I have a 160GB Gen 5 that I bought when first released back in the day when they were $400. Through a number of changes, the most recent being the advent of the Convert Higher Bitrate Songs to 128bit AAC feature, I decided to look at what more music I could store. After all was said and done, I ended up with a bit of a disaster with cover art not being properly applied to the music being played. I decided to *restore the ipod* based on suggestions in the discussion boards, and equally important was following the hints and tips here.
    http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp
    The advice is especially important in very large library situations to ensure you have uniqueness in the albums you want to display. Hadn't really given it much thought until I had the ability to see the individual albums for the 40K songs on the iPod via the cover art view.
    Finally the point of the post...
    *So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher Bitrate option now available in iTunes 9.1?* The specs on my computer are not highend by any stretch, but it's no slouch, and neither of the CPUs are ever pegged. At this point I've lost count of how much time it's taken, but the load is going on 3-4 days. With some breaks in between because I need to check each incremental load to verify there is no cover art corruption, correct bad tags and such, but for the most part the loading is visibly slow, and I'm sure the conversion is the cause. I'm not really complaining at this point, but there is clearly room for improvement. And of course unless there is a redo involved in which case I will get quite cranky.
    *I would like to hear the experiences of others.*
    Finally to lend a bit more credence to the performance concern, my 32GB iPhone 3GS for only about say 28GB of music takes about 24 hrs to load from a 2.2GHz dual core intel laptop, again using the convert higher bitrate option.

    With AC power adapter it takes 3-4 hours for a full charge. With the USB charger it takes 9-0 hours for a full charge. I am not happy with them removing the AC charger and other accessoreis at all. It's business but it still stinks.
    I know I would rethink my purchase but would most likely end up buying the Micro anyway

  • How long does it take for iCloud to sync to my devices?

    I just discovered that I could drag Word documents onto the iCloud web site from my computer. Pretty handy trick.  Drag and drop should be how this works.  So to test it I dragged a document from my My Documents Folder onto the iCloud web site in my browser (I wish my company would update to Windows 7 so it would be easier to align windows on screen).  It appeared to upload just fine.  So I went to my iPhone and opened Pages to see how badly the file translated from Word 2007 to Pages for iPhone.  And no document.
    I have waited about 20 minutes so far. Am I being to impatient?  Just how long does it take for iCloud to promulgate my documents to my iDevices?  I am hopefully getting an iPad for Xmas so I need to get this worked out before I actually need this for work.

    It actually goes pretty fast once you are on a WiFi connection.  I found an open WiFi connection at Starbucks and when i got back to my desk the files were all there on the web site.  I fond the Use Cellular connection to sync in settings and decided that I didn't need to sync my docs all the time so I will just wait to connect when I can get to a WiFi.
    Now I just need to figure out how to sync my contacts.  iCloud doesn't seem to play nice with Google contacts when they are on an Exchange connection.
