HT4623 Will an update from iOS 4.3.3 to 7.0.6 erase all/some data on an iPad 2?

Will a jump from 4.3.3 to 7.0.6 erase user content, including
Applications and data
Pictures
If it does, is there a way to prevent it?
Thanks!

Such a large jump just wondered me... but okay.
Some of those applications where installed by an account that belonged to the previous owner. The current owner, who isnt me, doenst want that data to be lost. If the update is taken, will those applications be removed?

HT201210 My ipod touch 2 gen will not update from IOS 4.2.1

My Ipod 2Gen will not update from IOS 4.2.1 keeps saying this is the most up to date software. Does the 2 Gen Ipod not allow anything higher than 4.2.1. HELP PLEASE!!!!

iOS 4.2.1 is the highest supported iOS version for the iPod Touch 2nd Generation.

Ipod touch will not update from IOS version 6.1.3 to IOS version 7

Are the previous ipod touch devices not compatible? An ipad the same age updated just fine.

Only the iPod 5th generation can update to iOS 7. If you have an earlier model then you cannot update to iOS 7.

HT4623 How to update from iOS 5.1.1 to 6 or 7

Thanks

If you have an iPad 2 or newer, go to Settings - General - Software Update.
If you have an iPad 1 you can not upgrade beyond 5.1.1.

Installing iOS 5 erases all previous data

Installation of iOS 5 erased all previous data on my iPad. Help! Prior to iCloud being in the picture, where were all my photos and documents backed up?
I am attempting to locate the files which vanished upon updating to iOS 5 - hundreds of pdf files, thousands of uploaded photos, screen shots, saved photos from web, ALL GONE. So were all my acquired apps, although those have been replaced - now I can begin or attempt to reconstitute the complex folder structure (notes, notes 2, notes 3, etc.) which grew over the last few iOS iterations, from too many apps stuffed into folders with strict limitations on contents. Tedious, but possible. Re all the photos, I'm still looking for clues: Is solid state storage similar to that on disk drives – does deleted information still reside on the drive, just not on the index?
Also, post updating, I am continually being prompted to authorize my computer, even though it is, and my Apple ID is intermittently rejected as if invalid, this is causing syncing challenges.
Thanks.
Weary of chasing side effects of upgrading operating systems.

Same for me, when install was finished all was gone, but strange enough the disk space bar was indicating 14Go other and that was exactly my content "in app" without apps, photos, video and music. So this data was not accessible due to missing apps and all my photo/video/music was gone.
I had exactly the same issue last upgrade, and last time I decided to resync my media content and started to add apps one by one again, and by magic almost all the apps managed to find back their data in the 14Go "other" that was still in the IPad. But I had to redo a lot of work like Icon position, some settings, and some apps didn't restore well. Took me a very long time and effort to get back to a nominal situation.
So this time I deciced instead to click "Restore" before doing any sync and used the backup that was generated automaticly just before the upgrade to 5.0 (so still with version 4 of ths IOS)
The process started, the Ipad rebooted and firmware was then loaded again (still 5.0) and the 14Go data from the backup was reloaded also, and this time after this quite long step, itunes started to restore apps, music, photos and videos one by one ... was quite a very long process but at the end all was perfect, storage was back to 40 Go including my 14Go data and all photos, videos and apps, with all setting perfectly restored.
Hope this help,
Patrick

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.

HT4623 Update from iOS 4.2.1

How can I upgrade my iPhone to 4.3

You cannot. The iPhone 3G will not update past iOS 4.2.1. That is the last iOS that it will support. If you need a newer iOS, you would have to purchase a newer iPhone.

IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open. So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

Maybe. See:
Reverting to previous version of Numbers

IPad 2 will not update from version 4.3.5 (8L1).

I got an iPad 2 from work and it will not update from version 4.3.5. There isn't even a software update option in settings. I have reset and erased it a few times, and still no update option. I have plugged it into my computer to try to update it that way and every time iTunes prompts me to download and update the latest version, it loads for a few seconds and then I get an iTunes message that says "The IPad software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your newtwork connection is active, or try again later." the network connection IS active, I can use safari, and I have "tried again later" and still no update. PLEASE HELP!

How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

So, my ipod touch is running 5.1.1 and is slow and sometimes unresponsive. According to Apple it will not update to iOS 6. It is a 32GB, 3rd Generation. I want the new features but it's making me mad. I do not want to jailbreak. HELP?!

So, my IPod touch is running 5.1.1 and is slow and sometimes unresponsive. According to Apple it will not update to iOS 6. It is a 32GB, 3rd Generation. I want the new features but it's making me mad. I do not want to jailbreak. As this would void my device from Apple. I love the features iOS 6 has to offer but I don't want to put out anymore money. IPods are expensive enough, Should I use blobs? Or would that make my device worse. Plus I do not want to pay $20.00 for a chat and have to wait all day to someone who I can't understand on the telephone. someone help me please.

For the slowness:
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- 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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

No its not out yet, when I went in to settings it still says 8.0.1 and I just searched on google, it says IOS 8.0.2 will come out in a few days. I just want to get IOS 8, I don't care about IOS 8.0.1 or 8.0.2 .
