    Will I lose my saved voice mail when I update to the new iOS update

    Your iOS version is probably too old to support software update.  You must update using iTunes on your computer.
    Make sure your iTunes on the computer is current.  Plug your iPhone into iTunes.  Let it sync.  Then choose "Check for Updates..." from the iPhone's summary tab in iTunes.  That should od it for you.

  • If I update from ios 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 will I lose my map data? When I updated to 5.0 I lost all my GPSHD Motion X data - 25 Gbytes.

    If I update from IOS 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 will I lose all my GPSHD Motion X map data? When I updated to IOS 5.0.1 I lost about 25GBytes of map data because Itunes will not back up my GPSHD map data.

    I havn't used that app, but you shouldn't lose any data by updating to 5.1.1 from 5.0.1.
    You can make sure you have a backup before updating.
    If you run into problem with that app only or want to ask the app developers, check out the Motion X-Support site.

  • Downloaded 2 songs from itunes, when ipod updated all my music disappeared!

    OK I haven't downloaded v7 yet. However I have a problem. I downloaded a couple of tunes from iTunes in the same way I have done for a couple of years now. I plug in my ipod to update the library and get a message saying it can't find a whole bunch of songs. Songs I already have and have had on my pod for ages. So once it finished updating, I have the 3 songs I downloaded tonight on it and no more. In iTunes, all my songs are still there, they are still on my hard drive in the right place but they're no longer in my iPod or in my playlists!
    How can I get them back onto my iPod? They were all there till tonight and I have no idea what I have done wrong if anything, as I just did the same as always when downloading from itunes. All the music is still in the usual folder (my documents/itunes/music or something like that) so how the **** do I get the music I HAVE PAID FOR back onto my ipod??? Thanks!

    Is your iPod configured to sync these tracks?  How do you have your iPod set up to sync music from your iTunes library?

  • Will i lose my songs and pictures if i upgrade my iphone to the 5.0 version if this isn't the original computer i used when i first got itunes?

    Will I lose my songs and pictures if i upgrade my iphone to the 5.0 version if the computer i am going to do it on is not the original computer i had itunes on, my old computer died!

    You can back up your Iphone in Itunes on any computer. Then restore after the upgrade if it was erased. iTunes has an option to even pick which backup file you want to use. I believe its pressing the alt key holding it and pressing restore. I did it on a windows pc so might be different. for a big update, apple iOS's are generally good with keeping files, but its always a good idea to back up your device. I just upgraded my MBP to Lion and didnt loose anything.

  • I need to uninstall/reinstall will I lose the songs I didn't purchase through ITunes?

    For some reason I am getting a message to uninstall and reinstall ITunes.  Not all the songs in my library were purchased at the ITunes store.  Will I lose these songs during the uninstall/reinsall process? 

    no your music files arnt stored in itunes so uninstalling and reinstalling wont delete them.
    If anything you might have to locate the files and reopen thim in itunes to put them back in your library. If thats the case...this should help you find your music files to put them back.
    Where are my iTunes files located?

    You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod:  File>transfer Purchases

  • ICloud on my iphone hasn't been backed up for 2 months because I havnt got enough iCloud space, now I have a new PC if I just log into iTunes will I lose any songs or is it a different iCloud ??x

    iCloud on my iphone 5 hasn't been backed up for a while because I've run out of iCloud space. I now have a new PC and wanted to use iTunes on it, if I just log in will I lose some songs or is it a different iCloud thing ??x

    Try signing out of iCloud completely.  That message shouldn't pop up if you aren't signed into iCloud at all.
    Unfortunately I can't, as this would disable the Find My iPhone feature.  Or were you suggesting I disable iCloud only temporarily?

  • When switching my iphone to a new apple ID will i lose my songs, apps, and imessages?

    i currently share an itunes account with several people and devices. i would like to make my own apple ID. When switching my iphone to the new apple ID will i lose my songs, apps, and/or imessage conversations?

    You need a valid/working email address in order to create an account.
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    More details of how:
    http://ipadhelp.com/ipad-help-tips-tricks/how-to-get-free-apps-from-the-app-stor e-without-a-credit-card/
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
    Note that if yo chaghe acounts in Settings>iTunes and App Store media will NOT be deleted from the ipod but:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • HT1923 Will I lose my song ratings if I do this?

    If I reinstall iTunes using the instructions in online help, will I lose my song ratings again?

    Assuming those instructions don't tell you to delete your iTunes Library.itl file or your media then your ratings will be fine. That said, you should backup anyway.

  • HT1311 To create a new apple ID, if I sign out of the current Apple ID account, and then sign in with a newly created account, will I lose any songs or apps on my phone or computer that were downloaded from the old apple ID?

    To create a new apple ID, if I sign out of the current Apple ID account, and then sign in with a newly created account, will I lose any songs or apps on my Iphone and Macbook Pro computer that were downloaded from the old apple ID?

    No, you will not loose anything.  However, if you ever need to update any of that previously purchased content, or re-download it, you will have to use the older AppleID.  Purchases are permanently tied to the AppleID you use when making the purchase.

  • Will I lose everything in my iTunes on my old computer if I update it and I haven't updated it in a while?

    Will I lose everything in my iTunes on my old computer if I update it and I haven't updated it in a while?

    No.  However, the fact that you would ask indicates that you are not maintaining a reliable backup.
    Make a backup of your valuable files now.  That is more important than updating iTunes.

  • If I make an apple Id,will I lose my songs and apps

    If I make an apple Id,will I lose my songs and apps?

    You can create another Apple ID for yourself. The songs and Apps you bought will remain on your device. Whenever there will be an update to an App bought with your mum's Apple ID though, you will be prompted to enter her Apple ID and its password.
    Same thing with the songs. If you delete them at anytime, a re-download will require her Apple ID and its password.
    Apart from that, don't worry about creating a new Apple ID, you can have several different Apple IDs... just don't mess them up.

  • If I reset all contents and setting, will I lose my money from iTunes Store

    I want to reset all things in my ipad because it has a lot of problems. But what im thinking is, when I reset all contents and settings will i lose my money from iTunes Store

    Your iTunes account shouldn't be affected, you will only remove all of your content from the iPad.
    Depending upon the problems that you are having, have you tried a soft-reset to see if that helps : 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 you do a complete reset then first copy off all of your purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11), and take a copy of any importand documents etc
