How to unlock Touch without loosing data.

Have not sync'ed ipod touch in some time.  Daugther changed passcode and has forgotten what it is.  How can I reset passcode without loosing all the data added since my last sync with Itunes on my laptop.  From everything i have read it appears the only option is to re-sync or restore and both options will remove all the games, app's and data on her device.  Are there any other options.

Does it back up while charging via iCloud?
Otherwise, no, sorry.  
Would you like me to be the bad guy?  
        "Young lady, you had permission to use my iPod! but when someone loans you something you must return it in the same condition or you will not be allowed to use it again"
If she is too young to understand that, then she is too young to touch the iPod.  
Good luck, sorry about your contents.

    What exactly are you seeing on the phone's screen ? If the iTunes icon and cable then the phone is in recovery mode, in which case it's too late to take a new backup or to copy any content off the phone - you will have to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and reset it back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to the last backup that you took or just resync your content to it

    - C:(Vista)

    Moved all my personal archives to partition D:
    Not sure if I can create bootable recovery dvds (system is unstable)

    As far as I know on second HDD partition in folder HDDRecovery is saved recovery image. When you start HDD recovery installation (F8 at start-up) recovery image from partition D will be installed on partition C. In this case partition D will not be deleted. Just partition C will be formatted before recovery image installation starts.
    Just use F8 option and go to repair my computer. Just follow menu on the screen and choose option Recovery of factory default software.
    > 2 If HDD is defective, how can I re-install supplied OS (vista) to a new HDD ?
    After reading this question I see you didnt read users manuals document. You should create recovery media (recovery DVD) and this recovery DVD you can use for recovery image installation if there is some problem with HDD or you want to install original recovery image on new HDD.
    > 3 Unrelated to the above, can I update to Windows 7 (clean install) 32 or 64bit version?
    Of course you can do this. Visit please Toshiba download page on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and check if all drivers, tools and utilities are available there. Of course before you do this, create recovery DVD.
    If you have more questions you are welcome.

  • How to convert NTFS external hard drive to FAT32 without loosing data?

    New mac user. How to convert NTFS external hard drive to FAT32 without loosing data?

    You have to off load and backup then.
    don't have backup drive ?
    Get one.
    Want another option? Paragon NTFS for OS X will provide write function to your drive, works with the most PC cases and drives (not all NTFS drivers for OS X do) and does so with fast I/O and low overhead.
    Not sure about using Seagate GoFlex as I seem to recall a number of threads reporting problems.
    Windows can do a convert -fs to NTFS just never tried the reverse from NTFS to FAT32 but I would not use FAT. I'd either erase and reload and use as Mac HFS Extended; or if you actually do need to use it with a PC user running Windows, the driver would be handy and better.
    Or your PC w/ Windows there are HFS drivers for Windows to mount and WRITE to a Mac formatted drive under Windows. There MacDrive has more and better support feature set.

  • How do I update I pad on a new computer without loosing data. Old computer got virus and it's got my I tunes account on it.

    How do I update I pad on a new computer without loosing data. Old computer got virus and it's got my I tunes account on it.

    You simply sync the iPad to the new computer. It will tell you that it is already synced with another one though, and will give you the option to erase it or transfer its contents to the new one. An iPad can only be synced with one computer at a time.
    Beware that only your iTunes and App Store purchases will sync. If your iTunes library contained music obtained from other sources, you have to find a way to transfer them directly from your sick computer to the new one.
    I hope your new computer is a Mac, a replacement PC will eventually suffer the same fate.

  • How do i pgrade my os without loosing data or using extra hdd? Thanks

    How do i pgrade my os without loosing data or using extra hdd? Thanks

    Yes, you can do that, but it is inadvisable to do so without a safety backup. But that's your choice, which means there is no guarantee you won't have a problem.
    First thing you should do:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Satellite L300-110 - How to recover without loosing data on the HDD?

    Hello all
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-110
    The question is how can I recover my laptop with the recovery DVD without lose any data located in the hard disk drive?

    Hello
    A recovery installation from the recovery disk without loosing data on the HDD isnt possible. If you use the Toshiba recovery disk the whole HDD will be formatted so you must backup the data first.
    The only way I know is to use the HDD recovery function in the advanced boot menu. The HDD recovery function formats only the first partition of the notebook and all data that you have stored on the second partition are available after recovery.

    You don't have to change NTFS to FAT.
    Just install Paragon NTFS and you'll be able to transfer your data to your external HDD even if it is NTFS.

    HI friends,
    I would like to know how to unlock iphone4s without a simcard in it..

    Unlock from wireless provider? Only the wireless provider to which an iPhone
    is locked can unlock it. Contact them to see if they offer unlocking and if you
    qualify.
    Or unlock because you forgot password?
    Forgotten passcode or disabled because entered incorrect passcode too many times:

  • How to sychronize app with a new library without loosing data?

    Hi,
    I had to re-install my SO and now I have to synchronize my ipod touch with a new itunes library, itunes tells me that if I do this i'll loose al apps and data that i have on my ipod, how can I transfer app and data from the ipod to my pc and synchronize without loosing apps and data?

    Wow, you Apple lemmings are great.  Yes, I do backup, brilliant of me, huh?  Thanks for the productive input.
    Are any of your really going to argue in favor of the requirement that you sync with one itunes account on one computer?  If so, please enlighten me as to why this is a great idea.  I love the iPad but hate that it is permanently tethered to itunes.  In fact, the thing will not work without an itunes account.  This is one reason I don't have an iphone and stick with android.  The android acts as its own hard drive.  It's very simple to save, backup and swap files with any computer.
    But back to the issue at hand, what if one doesn't backup?  Or if they did, the file was corrupt or the media they backed it to crashes?  The fact that the ipad cannot stand on its own is ridiculous.  By the way, I did restore my itunes folder but still get that notification that my ipad will be erased.  I'm sure though that I've added some apps since the last sync.  Are they going to be there when my ipad gets wiped out?  How does one know what has been saved?
    I love Apple products for its hardware but hate the software and all the control they have over it.  If I lose my apps, then so be it.  If there is any way around this, please let me know.
