I have a new update for my iPod Touch 4g. Will I lose everything?

I just received a software update for my iPod Touch 4th gen. I have heard a lot of people say the lost there stuff and I am scared I will lose everything. Any advice?

You should ALWAYS make sure that EVERYTHING is on your computer before any update/restore/etc., just as you shuld always make sure that your backup copy of your computer is upt ot date before any update/restore/etc.
If  you do lose anything, you would just sync it back.

    iClokldis a cloud service thatcomes with iPOS 5 and you do not have to use that service.  If you better describe your problems then we should be able to solve them.  First I would try restoring the iPod from backup.  See:

  • Two iPod touch devices sharing an Apple ID. Can I create a new ID for one of them, and will I lose everything if I do?

    My three young sons pooled their money and bought an iPod touch a few years ago. The oldest decided he wanted his own. We bought him one for Christmas last year, and I set it up using the same Apple ID. My oldest son downloaded some games but soon found whenever his brothers played the same games, the progress and changes were transferred to his device and vice versa. Is there a way to create a new Apple ID for the old device? If I am able to do that, will the younger kids lose all their pictures and videos? I am not concerned about them losing games or music. They have very little paid content on their iPod, but the older one has hit the age where he wants to start downloading music and better apps. Thank you for any help!!

    It the devices have iOS 8 then use Family Sharing
    http://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/family-sharing/
    Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support
    Not that yo have to be at least 13 for a regular ID
    Changing the ID does not erase any Data from the device
    CHANGE ID
    The ID is used in the following locations and you  have to change them.
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    Settings>iCloud
    and Settings>iTunes and App store
    You  have to sign out of ID (for iCloud you delete the iCloud account from the iPod) and sign in with other ID.
    Note the following are resolved if you  use Family Sharing (iOS 8 and later):
    - 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.
    If the iPod has iOS 7 or later then you have the enter the password for Apple ID presently sign in Settings>iCloud.
    Also, a Restriction can be set (Settings>General>Restrictions) the prevents changing accounts

  • Hi! I download the new update for my iPod on my pc but now it's stuck on the recovery mode! No jailbreak. I don't want to restore it because I'll loose all of my photos... HELP

    I download the new update for my iPod on my pc but now it's stuck on the recovery mode! No jailbreak. I don't want to restore it because I'll loose all of my photos... HELP

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    Then try restoring on another computer.
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • I have downloaded an update for my ipod 4th, and after that all my songs, pictures and apps have been erased, Is there some way to recover all my information without have done a security copy?

    I supsect you did the update on other than your syncing computer. If yu did the app, music and synced photo will not be on the iPod after the update since those items are not in the backup that iTunes makes. See:
    iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
    The above applies to all updates performedvia USB on a computer. To get stuff back, restore from backup on the syncing computer.
    The above in my educated guess since you provided litle information about how you did the update.
    You can redownload many iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • It says I have the new download for my iPod but I see no changes :( what do I do?

    It says I have the new download for my iPod but I see no changes :( what should I do

    Hello!
    If you refer to an App. and it doesn't appears on Springboard, you can reboot your iPod. If it not solve the problem, Reboot your iPod from Hardware (Press and keep presing Sleep/Wake button and Home button for about ten seconds until Apple logo appears). It might solve the problem. If not, Sync your iPod on iTunes, it may appears.
    You can redownload your App on "purchased" section from iTunes App, it should say "Installed"
    Hope this solves your problem

  • I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?

    I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?

    Well first off you shouldn't have had to pay for a download (just an assumption from the word "purchased".
    If you are trying to install iOS 5 on your iPod touch, it won't work they arent compatible. I suggest checking what version of software you are trying to install and posting it in this forum so people can have a better understanding.

    Hi, i need help, okay..my issue is that since the lastest update for the ipod touch, my music list is all over the place....my question is how can i get the itunes main music playlist to appear the same on my ipod touch?

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thanks for your prompt response, however I have first seen it now. I have placed an active SIM card in the iPhone turned it off and on. It now says SIM locked, please write access code. The problem is I don't remember the password. When I connect it to iTunes it tell me that I have to write the password before it can be used with iTunes...... Do you have any good ideas? I see you are from the NYC area.... used to work there back in the early 90´   Those were good days..... What a City

  • Does the Apps store will come in the 2.1 update for the iPod Touch 1G?

    Does the Apps store will come in the 2.1 update for the iPod Touch 1G?
    Does my ipod touch 1G can play games like the ipod touch 2G??
    anyone can help?

    since i dont have credit card, i paid $10 just for an update with nothing to do.
    You need a Credit Card or an iTunes gift card to create an iTunes account.
    Since you purchased the 2.0 upgrade, you already have an iTunes account.
    The 2.0 upgrade comes with the Apps store you can use on the iPod touch. Also, you can use the App store in iTunes.
    With both of these you can download free apps and you do not need a credit card since you already have an iTunes account.
    If you wish to make an actual purchase (pay money) for an app, you will need a CC or gift card balance on you iTunes account.
    Free apps/games thru the App store require an iTunes account (which you already have) and do not require that you have a CC or gift card balance.
