HT201412 if I delete my app, beause it will not load and then reload will I lose all of the information and my contacts it is a paid app

my song pop app has frozen and will not download songs. if I delete my app which I paid for and re load will I lose all my contacts

If you delete an app then yes, you will lose all content in it.
Have you tried closing the app via the taskbar and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the app that isn't working '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 the app to close it, 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 also do 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.

If i delete iTunes off my computer will i lose all my music?

I wanted to know this because my iTunes won't open, and I figured if I deleted and re-installed it, that might fix the problem. But I don't want to lose all my songs.
Any suggestions?

I have the same issue. How would I locate my music if I uninstall then reinstall itunes? The message I get when I try to open itunes is this:
THE ITUNES LIBRARY FILE IS LOCKED, ON A LOCKED DISK, OR YOU DO NOT HAVE WRITE PERMISSION FOR THIS FILE.
Can I fix this problem without trying the uninstall? If so, how? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

TS1702 I am having problems with an app that won't open. If I uninstall it then reinstall it will I lose all of the data that I have stored there?

I tried to update ipages app and this failed. I now cannot open the app. I am still unable to update it. If I uninstall and reinstall it will I lose the data stored on it

Try downloading any small-sized free app and then try Pages again.

HT4137 I was told to restore my iPad but not from a back up. If I do this, will I lose all of the apps, songs, pictures etc that I have saved in my iTunes?

I have just backed up my ipad. I want to make sure that iTunes will not reset, if I chose to set the iPad up as a new iPad. I do want to eventually put everything back onto my ipad.

Pictures are not saved in iTunes. All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer.
Photos/videos captured by the iPad or saved on the iPad from a received email, from an iMessage, from a website, or imported from a digital camera or from an iPhone with the Camera Connection Kit can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera - especially before restoring the iPad.
All iTunes content on your iPad - music, movies, tv shows, tones, audio and print books, and 3rd party apps should be in your iTunes library on your computer.

HT204053 If I delete an apple ID from my device (ipad) in order to replace it with another, will I lose all the apps that are already on the device or will they stay there?

If I delete an Apple ID from my device (ipad) in order to replace it with another Apple ID, will I lose all the apps/itunes/etc. that are already on the device or will they stay there?

It won't delete anyting, it will only change the ID.

If I put a different Apple ID in my iPhone will I lose all the apps I have already purchased through another Apple ID on the iPhone?

My daughter and I share an apple account. She has an iPhone (she's had it about a month) & I have an iPad. All of her app downloads and iMessages are showing up on mine. If I set her up her own Apple ID is there a way that she won't lose all of the things she already downloaded? She's taking over my iPad with downloads & pics.

The Apple ID needs to be a verified email address. Once you have an email address, that can be verified, go here & create the ID:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId
Then on her phone, turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
This will have no affect on the ID you both share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

I changed my Apple ID but my iCloud didn't change to the new ID. If I delete the old iCloud will I lose all data on my iPod ?

- Go to Settings>iCloud. Scroll to to bottom of the screen and tap the delete button. The effect all the services listed in Settings>iCloud like Notes, Contact and Calendar.
- You may be offered the option to retain that data on the iPod. Otherwise it gets deleted.
It does not effect synced media like apps and music purchased with the account..
Note that purchases made with an Apple ID are locked to the ID that purchased them. To update apps you have to sing into the account that purchased them

Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above. That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

No, all content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, it can't be transferred to another account

If they just delete iTunes, the music files should still be there. I suggest making a backup of them though. Locate your iTunes folder (The one that contains your library file) and just copy the whole thing to your Documents folder or wherever you like (Just not in the same directory of the original folder otherwise the computer will get confused and could confuse your iTunes library). Then you will have a backup of all your music, plus if you purchased it from iTunes, you will still have it linked to your Apple ID so you can re-download them to any computer with iTunes on it when you feel like it.

If I re-install my podcast app with a different apple ID will I lose all the media from the older one ?

I have the Podcast app installed on my iPhone with a lot if free media content downloaded.
Now I need to re-install the app with a different apple ID.
Will I lose all my content by doing do ?
Please help. I don't want to lose anything.
Please let me know if there is a work-around.

You don't really want a new Apple Account (which is what you are describing) - all of your iTunes purchases will still be tied to the old Apple Account, all of your iCloud info will be under that old Account, all of your Messages will be under that old Account.
Why not just to to Manage your Apple ID and edit your Apple ID to the new email you want it to be? You cannot edit an Apple ID using an Apple Domain email address (@me.com, @mac.com, @iCloud.com), but if your current ID is not using one of those type of email addresses, then changing it is the way you want to go. That way, everything stays with the Apple ID since it is the same Apple account.
Just be sure to sign out of all apps on the device (iCloud, Messages, iTunes & App Store, FaceTime) before you change it.
To EDIT your current Apple ID at Manage your Apple ID go to: Apple - My Apple ID

No, your library will remain - but you should be keeping and maintaining a backup of your downloads/library.
