Erasing content and settings on iPad will not erase stuff on iPhone.

Will my accounts be safe if I didn't log out all the apps in my iPhone 4s despite erasing all contents and settings?

I need to be enlighten on this. Please help.

Hi, thanks a lot for the feedback.
What I'm worried about was that I didn't logged out All apps accounts, including fb, twitter, instagram etc., as well as my apple ID account. I was in a hurry erasing all the contents so I thought that it would be a shorter procedures if I use what in the Settings. I was in a hurry to dispose of my Apple 4S.
I just hope the new owner of my 4S will not be able to use all the accounts with personal info

her contacts are connected directly with the Google Server so as long as they are saved to her Gmail account she should be 100% fine.. the only contacts she may lose are the ones that she added directly onto the phone and did not sync to her Gmail account.. so you should just double check with her on that

i want to erase all content and settings from my old ipad and was wondering if the same content will be lost on my iphone and new ipad. all under same apple id

No. Your other devices will be unaffected.
Just tap Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase all content and settings.

What happens if i erase all content and settings?

I want to restore my iphone again on itunes, what happens of i erase all content and settings?

Erasing all content and settings will set your iPhone up just as if you took it out of the box software-wise. It will go into setup mode - ask you for a WiFi network to join, ask for your Apple ID, set up the telephone, and then ask if you would like to set up as new or restore from a backup.

I am using iPhone 5 and tried to Erase All Contents and Settings but it is just showing an apple sign on the screen and nothing is happening now for about 3 days now. All it does is eat up my battery and still show apple sign after charging! Help!!!!

Hi DaVince Vince,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues with your iPhone. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear what issues you were having that led up to the attempted Erase All, and/or exactly what behavior you are seeing now (restarting, not responding at all, etc). If you are seeing an Apple Logo screen and your iPhone does not appear to be starting correctly, you may find the following articles helpful:
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
Regards,
- Brenden

HT5661 i have an iphone 3 i am selling .. if i go to erase all content and settings .. will the apps still be on the phone .. i've never been able to add apps to this phone and don't want to lose them

how do i prepare my iphone 3 to sell ..
i've never been able to download new apps so i don't want to lose the apps that are on there
am i to reset all settings? or erase all content and settings? or reset network settings?

Only the apps that are part of iOS will remain on the phone.
If you're going to sell it, use "Erase All Content and Settings".
If you're selling it, what difference does it make to you if the apps get erased? You don't have the legal right to transfer any apps you bought to anyone else. Not to mention the fact that you stated you have never been able to download new apps...
Why don't you just re-post the question in your native language. There are so many contradictions in your post that i don't believe you're conveying the questions you think you are.

If I backup my iPhone in iTunes then "Erase All Content and Settings", will I still be able to restore the iPhone?

I am asking this because my iPhone 4S is really starting to slow down. And I think is mainly due to the deleted text messages bug (i.e., they are still searchable in spotlight!), therefore not deleted off my phone and slowing it down. There are big delays opening up apps (especially Messages) and now, sometimes, my phone won't even vibrate when texts come in. I also just want to completely wipe the slate clean and start fresh, but I still would like to save the SMS conversations I already have. So I guess what I am afraid of is wiping my phone then iTunes sees the phone as a completely new phone and not "Drew's iPhone" therefore making a restore impossible. Would this be an issue at all?? Thank you!

If you restore your phone as new - your text message will be deleted from the phone.
If you erase all contents and settings and then restore from a backup, your text message will still be there.

Unlock iphone will get lock again if i do reset all content and settings???

Unlock iphone will get lock again if i do reset all content and settings???

I do not understand you question. From the Users Guide.
Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
What do you mean by unlock?

I need to take my iPhone 5 in for service because the sleep/wake power button at the top is not working and in order to do that I have to erase all content and settings but before I do that I want to back up my iPhone.

I have reset my iphone and erased all content and settings. when i turned it back on i only have access to emergency numbers what should i do?
Thanks for help.

After wiping it, you need to re-activate it. If it is carrier locked, you will need to activate it on the network it is locked to.

I gave my ipad 2 to my brother last month. After that he erased all content and settings, sign in with his apple id. The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. I had create new apple id, change my password, delete the icloud acc. But still I can not update my apps. I have many of red notifications on iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
Is your iPad working?
