It will not do anything at all to your computer.

  • I have to erase and syne my iPhone 4s will that delete all my contacts?

    So apparently my iPhone syne to another computer. To sync it with the one I use I have to erase and sync. Will that delete all my contacts???

    You might if you select to sync contacts on the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync to an empty contact application on your computer (e.g., Outlook or Windows Contacts).  As a safety precaution download the free app My Contacts Backup.  This will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email which you send to yourself.  If necessary, you can later open this email on your phone and tap the attachment to re-import your contacts to your phone.  After doing this, follow this guide to preserve your other data and settings: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.  If you aren't syncing your calendar or contacts with your computer, you can skip step 2; just be sure to deselect syncing calendars and contacts on the Info tap of your iTune sync settings prior to syncing.

  • HT1386 i bought a new iphone and im trying to sync for the first time.  Do I restore from the backup of my old phone or set up from my new iphone

    any thoughts

    If you want to restore the settings and data from your old phone to your new one, restore from the backup of your old phone (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109).  You will still have to sync with iTunes to transfer apps, music, and other iTunes media back to your phone.

  • I purchased a time capsule last year and we have been using for our backup of our apple devices (iMac, laptop, iPad and now 5 iPhones).  we have not used it as our router for wifi but would like to now switch to it. need directions for switching please.

    i am using time capsule for backup only but would like to switch to it for our wifi.  directions on apple discuss original set up of time capsule for wi fi but not switching from existing wi fi router.  were can i get help with this?

    Well, it depends on what ISP you use.
    Reply back with your ISP and connection type (cable, ADSL). Also, do you use an ISP router or do you have a modem connected to a router that you provide?

  • Got a new laptop, is there a way to transfer all my music to my new laptop without having to delete all my music from my iphone

    i got a new laptop. I used to hae a PC and then got a Mac. my old laptop crashed and I had so much music on it. So when I plugged my iphone into my Mac I was able to put my purchased music on my iphone but nothing else. Some how my old laptop worked again so I was able to get my old music on my iphone. But when i went to plug my iphone into my new Mac it said I have to delete all of my old music off my iphone or i will not be able to transfer any of my new music from my mac. Any one know what i can do ?

    I would ask here

    when you buy stuff it's connected to the appleID not the computer
    nor the appletv which have no storage so there is no option to get it from the atv

  • How do I delete all my music from my iPhone 4s (v 7.1.2)?

    I've tried syncing my phone whilst selecting no songs to be synced, but after the process is supposedly finished, all my music is still on my iPhone. Also many of my songs are unplayable on my iPhone, they're titles appear faded and cannot be individually deleted by swiping the song title to the left.

    Yes all my music was synced from this computer.
    When I go to the music tab in my iPhone menu (I assume that's the "Music" you are referring to) and uncheck "Sync Music" then all that is present on that page is the box that includes the following options:
    "Entire music library
    Selected playlists,artists, albums and genres
    Include music videos
    Include voice memos"
    Furthermore, the bar that displays the storage distribution at the bottom of the page indicates that I have 10.43 GB free whereas when I check how much free space I have available from the settings on my iPhone, it tells me that I have 4.2 GB available.

  • I am having trouble backing up my ipod touch. It says I should delete my back up and try again. How do I do that and will it delete all my music on my computer/ipod?

    How do i delete my back up? I am trying to sync my ipod and it won't work. It says something about the back up being corrupt and that i must delete it and try again. If I do this will it delete my music on my computer/ipod?

    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

  • How can I delete all my music from my iPhone 4s

    How can I delete all the music from my iPhone?

    I finally went to Apple Care tech support (the best!) for help.
    Plug your phone into the computer.
    I-Tunes should open.
    Toward the top left of the page, click on the small I-Phone icon.
    Select Music in the sidebar.
    In the right window, your music should appear.
    De-select what you don't want, then click Sync.
    Voila.
    I am running Yosemite 10.1.1
    I-Phone 4S  8.1

  • Delete content, My iPod 4 deleted all my music and videos for the third time. What can I do to stop this?, My iPod 4 deleted all my music and videos for the third time. What can I do to stop this?

    iPod deletes all music and videos, I synced it with iTunes, but after some time it deletes again.

    To stop this, don't use the same Apple ID on both phones for iMessage and FaceTime.  (You can continue to use the same ID for iTunes; it doesn't need to be the same as the ID used for iMessage or FaceTime.)
    On one of the phones, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Then do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

  • ITunes match deletes all my music from my iPhone (the second time now)

    This is the second time my music app is empty. It shows all my songs in the cloud but i have to download all the songs again. Whats interresting is, i have to delete the albums first because there is no cloud symbol in "albums" and "artists" so i cant download "all songs" in an album yet. Then every song must be downoad again. Thats really wired and aaargh!!! What can i do? Nothing, right? In the settings app the number of songs also show up even after "deleting" the deleted songs...

    to be honest i hadn't heard about it happening in itunes 6 till i read your post, there seems to be a lot of people getting this problem in itunes 7 though.. so you're not the only one there..
    however i can't offer any solution because i don't have a clue..
