HT201328 Will I loose ios6 after a hard reset to unlock my phone. In other words , will it force me to upgrade to ios7?

Will I loose ios6 after a hard reset on iTunes ? Will it force me to upgrade to ios7?

If you need to restore your iPhone to get past a forgotten screenlock password or to complete an unlock from a cell carrier, then yes, you'll be forced to upgrade to iOS 7. A restore will always download and install the most recent version of iOS your device will support.
Regards.

  • Will my USA apple TV work in Austria (using a power converter of course)?  In other words, will I get USA Apple TV viewing selections?

    Can I unplug my USA apple TV, take it to Austria and will it work in Austria (using a power converter of course)?  In other words, will I get USA Apple TV viewing selections?  Or, will it work at all?

    The ATV is the same device worldwide.

  • 7.1.2 update failed. Now my iPhone 5 is in recovery mode and hard resetting does not work for me. iTunes also will not detect my phone now

    I did my 7.1.2 update via iTunes. Half way through it stopped working saying it does not detect my phone. Now my iPhone 5 is in recovery mode and hard resetting does not work for me. iTunes also will not detect my phone now

    Thank you SO very much for posting this. I had the exact issue with my iPad Mini after the same upgrade. Hard reset failed, computer would not recognize iPad. I had read all the other instructions and nothing worked.... YOUR SOLUTION WORKED FOR ME - with a slight variation.
    I followed your lead and connected my iPad Mini to another computer, fired up iTunes, it saw the iPad Mini in Restore Mode and allowed me to go into Restore (yes, it wiped all of the data but I have a back up on the other computer that would not see it after the failed update). It installed the latest iOS 7.1.2 as well. I then disconnected it from that computer, reconnected it to the computer that would not see it prior and it then saw it as a new iPad and allowed me to Restore my backup and now it's all good!
    I detailed my steps only because you downloaded the previous version - 7.1.1 whereas I downloaded the latest version (7.1.2) and then restored my back up.

  • After a hard reset all user profiles are now accessible by every user

    I initially had our office time capsule set up with 3 seperate user accounts ("profiles") via these instructions. Thus each user had a login for the time capsule that would then show them a shared folder that all users could see, and then a personal folder that only those logged into that account could see and access.
    While I was out of the office a co-worker was having trouble connecting his new iMac to the time capsule, so he called apple for assistance and they had him do a hard reset. The hard reset saved all the profiles and all information in each folder, but now everyone can access every folder. I'm not completely sure of what steps they took to set it up after the hard reset, but now, no matter which account you are logged in as you see:
    -"Shared"
         -(Shared folder)
    -"Users"
         -(user 1)
         -(user 2)
         -(user 3)
    So you have complete access to each users folders. Does anyone know if there is any easier way to set the user profiles back up the way they were originally set up by myself, or do I basically have to re-do the whole process (which includes saving and transfering all folders--which is a long process)?

    The security of the TC is designed for home networking.. because anyone who has physical access to the TC can easily access anything.. it is simply convenient perhaps to have user profiles.. but a quick 1 sec soft reset and anybody can gain access to anything.

  • Unicode language disappeared after a hard reset on...

    recently i did a hard reset on my n8 belle. After a hard reset i can't able to see unicode language such as Bengali language anymore. Before hard reset i can see unicode language on my n8 default web browser. Now what can i do ? Plz help me
    Nokia N8 Official Belle Refresh

    The Symbian OS is from the ground up based on Unicode.
    A particular phone might not have Unicode fonts with all languages as part of the firmware, but they might be installed afterwards.
    A hard reset might (and probably does) remove fonts from phone memory that are not in ROM (read-only memory).
    A firmware update might restore them, if the fonts are part of the firmware update.
    Otherwise, a firmware update might also cause languages to be lost, if the firmware has been updated to a different language variant after the phone left the factory:

  • How reset a Sim card on iTunes after a hard reset

    How to reset a SIM card  on iTunes if needed after a hard reset on a 3GS phone

    Not sure what a hard reset is either.  There is a restart, a reset, and a restore.
    Either way, it has nothing to do with the sim card.

  • Usage Times after a Hard Reset

    Does anyones else time disappear and stay gone until a full charge after a hard reset?

    Yes, that's what happens. Very inconvenient as you have to fully charge to 100% again before the counter restarts.

  • I bought a fully specked, 2012 retina mac book pro today. Will it still be powerful in 4 years? In other words, will it still be able to handle high powered engineering programs in 4 years?

    In other words, will it still be able to handle high powered engineering programs in 4 years? It's i7, quad core, 2.7GHZ boost up to 3.7GHZ,16 GB RAM, and 768 flash SSD.
    Will it be considered a lower powered or mid powered machine in 4 years relative to the new laptops around it?
    I feel like fully specking it helps me be a little future proof.
    Is 6 years too ambitious to hope for that this machine will still be able to handle powerful programs?
    I spent $3000 so in 4 years I hope it will still be relativley fast.

    Nobody can predict what programs might need in the future.  And, nobody can predict where computers will head 3-4 years from now.  Power (meaning energy consumption) is becoming as important as speed (if not more so).  Purchase what you need now with a bit of headroom and expect that you might need to replace in 3 years (that's the reason large companies lease computers instead of purchasing them).
    It also depends on what you mean by "high powered engineering programs".  It could mean that  you don't have enough memory for newer applications and will constantly be swapping to disk.  This could either prevent you from using the SW or will significantly slow things down.
    It could also mean that the computations become more complex and need a faster cpu (this is a lower risk and simply means that your computer won't be quite as fast as your buddy's).
    It could mean that the OS you have today is obsolete and no longer supported for these applications.
    Don't worry about 4 years down the road.  Nobody (and I mean nobody) can predict even 1 year out.  Look at how many times companies delay product introductions, or provide "guidance" to analysts.

  • HI I WAS WONDERING IF THE NEW GARAGEBAND WOULD ERASE OR REPLACE MY CURRENT GARAGEBAND SOFTWARE AD LOOPS, OR IS IT AN ADD ON TO MY CURRENT PLATFORM? IN OTHER WORDS WILL ANY THING CHANE WITH MY CURRENT GRAGEBAND SOFTWARE?  THANKS - WP

    HI I WAS WONDERING IF THE NEW GARAGEBAND WOULD ERASE OR REPLACE MY CURRENT GARAGEBAND SOFTWARE, INVENTORY AND LOOPS, OR IS IT AN ADD ON TO MY CURRENT PLATFORM? IN OTHER WORDS WILL ANY THING CHANE WITH MY CURRENT GRAGEBAND SOFTWARE IF I MAKE THI UPDATE?  THANKS - WP

    What is your current GarageBand version?
    Your profile signature says "OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)", but the newest GarageBand, version 10.0.2, requires Mavericks.  Are you planning on upgrading from Mt. Lion to Mavericks?
    The newest GarageBand 10.0.2 is very different from the earlier GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5.
    Some features, like podcasts, are missing. The GUI layout is more like Logic than GarageBand, the effects can no longer be combined freely, but you have to use the predefined patches. But this version adds nice new features like Drummers or Arpeggiators. and not all of your audio units may be compatible.
    If you upgrade to GarageBand 10.0, the new version can open your older projects, no problem. But once opened in GB 10.0, they will no longer work in GB '11. 
    The installer will not overwrite GB '11, but move it to a subfolder in Applications, and you can use both versions cuncurrently. They do not interfere and you can use GB '11 as before.

  • Will my whole itunes library be transferred to my new computer with home sharing,in other words will I be able to use bothe computers at the same time ? And will I have two copies of my all my playlists?

    Will my whole itunes library be transferred to my new computer with home sharing,in other words will I be able to use bothe computers at the same time ? And will I have two copies of my all my playlists?

    Hi there J1750oe,
    You may find the information in the article below helpful.
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    Transferring playlists
    If you want not only your content but also your playlists to exist on your new computer, you will want to transfer a copy of all your playlists from your old computer. To do this, choose File > Library > Export Library on your old computer. Save the XML file that is created to your desktop.
    Send the playlists file to yourself as an e-mail attachment, use an external drive, or use file sharing to move the playlists file to your new computer. Once the file is on your new computer, open iTunes and choose File > Library > Import Playlist. The import process will remove any items from the playlists that you didn't share via Home Sharing.

  • What will happen to my key if my hard disk is formatted, will the key work after my hard disk is formatted ?

    I want to know that, will my synchronized computer key will work if I format my hard disk because when hard disk is formatted then the key code will be erased , though I have saved my key will it work after formatting hard disk . let me know .
    let me also know that what will happen if I lose the key I had saved then how will I access my synchronized computer .

    Hi!
    Can you point to the information where it says that the information is backed up in our servers? If that's mentioned anywhere we need to clarify it.
    The only reference I found is here: [[What is Firefox Sync?]] and it specifically says that the information is synched across devices through our servers. If that's misleading, let me know so we can rephrase it.
    Regarding storing the key in your pen-drive or any other back up system: This is the best solution and it will work smoothly after you format your computer. The key doesn't change when you format your computer so you will have no issues after all.

  • My ipad quit backing up and it cannot find the file.  I tried putting on another computer after a hard reset but it says it cannot back up there either.

    My ipad quit backing up because it cannot find the file.  I have tried a restore and hard reset and adding itunes to another computer and putting it on there but it still will cannot add the ipad to the new computer and back up.  I have an iPad (not iPad 2) and 5.01 OS.  It appears that my iPad is not fully fuctional since I updated to the new OS which is when my ipad stopped backing up.  I lost data too and some apps don't work anymore.

    Have you previously synced photos to the iPad, as that occasionally causes the 'missing file' error. If so then try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try backing up - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314.
    In terms of apps not working, if it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Life after a hard reset?

    I have spend all afternoon looking for a solution and am desperate right now. After hotsync my Palm to my pc, my Treo650 ended in a loop(?). Had to hard reset and lost all data (contacts, calender, photo, film, etc.) from my Treo. Ofcourse I hotsynched my pc to my Palm but entered a new username in my Palm. The situation right now is that my Palm remains empty and the former user (still me) has all the data on the pc. I hotsynced and followed just about every suggestion I could find but still no solution.
    My question is quite simple: how do I get the data from my pc onto my Palm? Hopefully someone will recognize my problem and knows of a way to help me out. All help is welcome. Thnx Jakje

    If you are just trying to get your pim data back then you can export the data from your old username and import into the new one, this will keep any corruption in the old username.
    To export go into each pim and go to file export
    Calendar: file export it will be a .dba file and import into new username
    Contacts (be sure to go to edit and select all) then go to file export it will be .aba and import into contacts in new username
    and so forth...

    A reset and restore are two different things.
    You're restoring the phone as new - so no your pictures won't come back to your phone, if you sign into icloud - maybe your photo stream pics.
    You should import your pictures in your camera roll to your computer Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support  then after setting up your phone as new you can sync those pictures back to your phone using iTunes iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support
    to get pictures back from icloud, you would need to restore back from your icloud backup.

  • 2TB Time Capsule getting "An unexpected error occurred. Try again" error after a hard reset

    Hi,
    I'm working with a brand new 2TB Airport Time Capsule and after I performed a Hard reset as expalined in the forums I'm not able to configure it any more.  I receive "An unexpected error occurred. Try again" from the AirPort Utility.
    I'm running Mavericks in my Mac and I'm not sure what else to do.  Any suggestions?

    Completely isolate the Mac and the TC from the network.. plug the TC lan port by ethernet to the Mac.
    Factory reset the TC.
    Factory reset TC Gen 5 or AE Gen 6
    Unplug your AE/TC .. hold in reset and power the TC/AE back on.. without releasing the reset.. wait until status led flashes rapidly.
    Make sure in the ethernet settings you have ipv6 set to link local and the dhcp set for ip. It should give you an address of 10.0.1.2
    Open the airport utility, using the top menu.. File, Configure Other.
    Type in the address, 10.0.1.1 .. no password is required at this stage.
    Click ok and the main setup will open.
    Set all the names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Set the TC to the right mode .. dhcp+nat for router or off (bridge mode) for bridge.
    Set wireless to create a wireless network.
    No luck then the TC is faulty and needs to be returned.
