I accidentally backed up my ipod touch data onto my iphone.

i got a new iphone and wanted to sync it to my computer and accidentally backed up my ipod touch data onto my iphone and now i have all my ipod data and settings on my iphone. how do i undo this?

Restore the device from a previous backup.  Or, if it's new, then Erase All Content & Settings and set up as new again.
Are you wanting to have two separate setups for the devices?  I'd recommend using two separate Apple IDs then, but be advised, you can't transfer purchases between Apple IDs.

  • Transferring iTunes/iPod Touch  Data from One PC to Another

    I have my iPod Touch synced to my Windows laptop. As I have a newer Windows PC, is it possible to transfer the entire iTunes library along with all the iPod Touch data onto my new PC without causing any problems when it comes to syncing my iPod Touch with the new PC?
    Currently, if I plug my iPod into my new PC, it warms me that if I want to continue, my iPod will be wiped clean.

    You can move your iTunes library from one PC to another from an external back up hard drive.
    I don't know if there is a way to synch to your new computer without losing music and video off the Touch, I lost all that when I moved mine on to this new computer. I had all my library backed up to a hard drive anyway so was obviously able to put all of my library on to the new PC before synching the Touch.
    I recall that before I synched I did transfer purchases from the touch to the PC as connecting did offer me the option to do that.
    If you've not got a back up hard drive, I can't stress enough the importance of having one.

    With all you media (apps, music) in the iTunes library connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup. Do that by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up. Then restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note the the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

    Hello mig04,
    While looking into the issue you are experiencing I came across some helpful information. In an article called iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3992 there are a number of steps to help get your issue resolved.
    General troubleshooting
    General information
    iCloud Backup requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
    Automatic backups occur when you've plugged in your iOS device, locked the screen, and have connected it to Wi-Fi.
    You can manually start a backup by tapping Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup (requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet).
    iCloud Backup will provide helpful information and status messages related to backups at the bottom ofSettings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    If automatic backups don't work as expected, test to see what happens when you start a manual backup by tapping Back Up Now at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
    Backups and restores both take time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your data and the speed of your network, you may need to give more time than you expected to a backup or restore.
    Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free space available on your iOS device before you back up. If you have no space available on your device, iCloud Backup can fail in some cases. You can verify how much free space you have available on your iOS device in Settings > General > About.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Syncing keeps backing up my iPod touch

    When I install new application, movie, or music, my mac keeps syncing by backing up my iPod touch everytime. Is this normal or can I change something in the preference.

    Yes, I was going to post a question regarding backups. Having had a Palm and using backup software (not the regular sync operation), I was wondering about the iPod Touch. I did notice that it says something like "backing up iPod" during a sync, but do we need more robust backup software? For example, if some app corrupts its data, can we restore just that data file, or the app with data? Or do we do a full restore - and if so, how is that done?

  • I backed up my ipod touch 5 to my computer

    I backed up my ipod touch 5 to my computer. My itunes got erased while updating my computer to windows 8. Then I downloaded itunes with another email, so would my data be still saved on my computer. Data- Pictures

    Sort of.Apps are locked to the account that purchased them. Use the same Apple IS you used before.
    Restore from backup.
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:        
      Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    I tried to restore, update and back up my ipod touch. once it said it was successful i clicked on the label of my ipod in itunes and it had written, "we're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." now whenever i click on the label it just says that and on my ipod it tells me to plug into itunes when it already is. i didnt update restore or back it up with the latest version, so i downloaded the latest version, how do i start the process again so my ipod works!! help this is gay !!

    Hmm, well... iTunes trys to activate your iPod using the Apple server to make sure you have bought it legit.
    Two things come into my mind:
    1) Your iTunes can't access the internet.
    2) Apples activation servers are down.
    That's just my cents, maybe anyone else has an idea.

    If you restored from backup all the photos in your camera roll that were in the backp should be restored to our iPod.  However, photos that are synced to the iPod are not in the backup. You will have to resyc them to the iPod.  If the synced photos are no longer on the computer then the photos are lost.

  • Using Itunes, I copied all my apps from my Ipod touch to a new Iphone 4. Problem is all the apps on the Iphone are starting up like a new install. I would think my "password" app and "lose it" app would have the past data transferred to the Iphone.

  • How do i get all the music that i purchased back on my ipod touch 3rd generation?

    how do i get all the music that i purchased back on my ipod touch 3rd generation?

    Back from where?
    Where did it go?
    It should all be on your computer and included in your regular backup copy of your computer.
    Sync it back.

  • Camera on back of my iPod Touch 4 has stopped working, what's happened?

    The camera on the back of the iPod Touch 4G (The one on the silver metallic side) has stopped working completely. The front facing one still works.
    Please help. I have had many problems with the iOS software, and I am getting frustrated!
    Regards,
    Alex.

    Have you tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod via iTunes.  First from backup and if problems persist restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    - If problem still occurs make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you likely have a hardware problem.  If so, they will give you a replacement under your warranty.

  • Can I Gold Plate the back of my iPod Touch?

    If i can gold plate the back of my iPod Touch how much would it cost?

    Here's one company in the UK:
    http://www.appletattoo.com/touch-ipod-gold-plated-iphone-gold-plated-ipod-gold-p lating-iphone-gold-plating-gold-ipod-gold.html
    Note that plating like this will almost certainly void your iPod's warranty.
    I'd suggest you just buy a skin for your iPod. It might not be quite as snazzy as having your iPod gold-plated, but it will be a lot easier and almost certainly a lot less expensive, and won't affect your warranty.
    Regards.

  • Glue a router to the back of an ipod touch and call it an iphone?

    This may seem like a stupid question but is it possible to glue a portable battery powered wi-fi router to the back of an ipod touch so you can surf the web anywhere? That would be awesome!

    A WiFi router is going to need an internet signal from an access point somewhere therefore taking a router around will not help. You would be just as good as one without having a router at that point.
    What you would need is a portable access point which gets its signal from a satellite such as the one mentioned above and that is the Verizon MiFi. It will act as an access point and a router allowing up to three connecions simultaneously. It is $59.99 per month.

    FYI the Verizon MIFI uses localized cell phone towers to connect to the internet and not Satellites.
