help me please thx! for me theres nothing to erase in my iphone only few app thats ok for me but im asking is if i erased and sync to my new cumputer will my ios 7 will be gone also? thx

No. iOS will not be gone. If you erase and restore your device, iOS 7 is simply reinstalled. However, everything else will be erased. Be sure to make a backup first from which you can restore your stuff. Syncing to a new computer that does not have a copy of your old iTunes Library will cause only that content to be removed.

    One computer iTunes can support multiple Apple IDs.  One iPod can also support multiple IDs.  Don't do an "erase and sync."  Simply add your Apple ID to the computer's iTunes and to the iPod.  The only nuisance is app updating, especially if you do the updates from the computer, rather than from the iPod.

  • I want to sync my movies from iTunes onto my iPad, but when i try, it says it needs to "erase and sync" my iPad. If i erase and sync, will it delete my apps, photoa, and videos?

    All devices only sync what you select to sync.
    If you do not want all of the music, then simply do not select all of the music to sync.

  • If I "Erase and Sync" will my songs that I erased be saved in my ITunes Library?

    I synced my Ipod to another computer, and it told me I could either "Erase and Sync" or "Transfer Purchases". If I do the first option, would I still have the songs I previously had on Ipod in my Itunes library?
    Thanks it's a confusing question! =P

    When you sync an iPod touch to a new computer, all content on the iPod will be erased and replaced with content from iTunes on the new computer. You need to transfer any content from the iPod you wish to keep before you allow it to sync to the new computer or that content will be lost. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    Once the content has been transferred, you can then allow the iPod to be synched to the new computer and it will sync back that transferred content. Note that this will happen any time you connect the iPod to a new computer; iPod touches can be synched only to one computer at a time.

  • When itunes says erase and sync will all my apps be erased as well?

    I recently got a new computer and was installing iTunes for my iPhone. I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 8. Anyways it said that in order to sync my iPhone it had to 'erase and sync' from the old computer to be able to work on this computer. I was just wondering that if i did this if all of my apps and contacts would be erased as well?

    I have restored my iPad to factory settings in the past. I backed up, transferred purchases and synced with iTunes before I restored. When the entire process was complete, everything was back in place exactly as it was before I restored.
    If you do it correctly, you should be fine and everything should transfer back to your iPad when you are done.

  • What exactly will "erase and sync"-ing my ipod erase?

    so i want to download a video onto my mom's ipod but apparently the ipod has been synced to another itunes library when last time, i plugged it into the same computer to update it...
    anyway the notification "do you want to erase this ipod and sync with the contents of this itunes library?" came up so i just want to know what will be erased.... like i don't want to lose her apps and the progress she's made in them hahaha. 
    just some more details:when i plug in the ipod,
    under the "Tones" section--i didn't checkmark it;
    "Sync Music" didn't checkmark it
    "Sync Movies" well I want to checkmark it and check the video i want to download
    "Sync tv shows" "Sync photos" all aren't checkmarked
    so the only thing i have checked (or want to check) is the movies. the ipod currently doesn't have any music on it but lots of photos and apps and i don't want to lose any of them. so if i were to click "erase and sync" will that delete the photos and apps and the progress?
    MUCH THANKS TO ANYONE THAT WOULD HELP!

    You have to use the manual method of syncing to copy music and videos for other than the one syncing computer you can have. The manual method is discussed here:

  • Help with erasing and syncing please - what will be erased?

    I have somehow created a 2nd itunes account and my iphone won't sync with the first one. It is syncing with the 2nd one however I cannot add new music - if I try on the 2nd one I get a message asking if I want to erase this iphone and sync with this itunes library.  Below this is a warning that erasing and syncing will replace the contenst of this iphone with the contents of this itunes library.  What exactly will be erased?  If it's just the music and photos then I won't mind - my phone is new and not got much on it.  However I don't want to lose all my apps and contacts information.  I know I can back it all up but I am not very knowledgable about all this - I am new to itunes and iphones just last month!  Any advice gratefully recieved - thank-you! 

    OK so its been a LONG time since messing with this but now I have to get it done. I have tried all this that is stated in this thread and I can do what I am looking for IF I start a new file, draw a few shapes, apply the pathfinder divide.
    However, with this file I am working with I can not figure out why I cant get it to work.
    Again, what i am trying to do is have a LOT of lines crossing over the edges of the templates that are the shapes in my AI file. Think 80's style Eddie Van Halen guitar. They're going to be graphic for my sons motorcycle for his birthday.
    I was trying to simply use the rectangle tool to draw various black and white lines and then somehow cut the overhangs off my templates.
    Very frustrating that I cant figure out what I am doing wrong!! Especially since I am fairly proficient in After Effects, Premiere, and Photoshop. Trying to learn Illustrator though!!
    By the way using CS3
    Thanks for anyone that can help me!!!
    You can download my project file here.

  • HT1296 Erase and sync help!

    i want to start syncing my iphone to my laptop instead, if i go 'erase and sync' will that erase all iphone content like messages and contacts and so on? and if i do press erase and sync can i restore from backup afterwards

    Hello, Welcome to discussions.
    Couple quick tips
    -Reboot computer
    -Ensure when you connect the iPhone that you connect to a USB 2.0 Port if at all possible. Some of these ports will be located on the back of a desktop machine, othertimes in the front.
    -If you are connecting the iPhone via a USB connection built into a keyboard or USB hub. Try using any other port on the computer and or disconnect any un-needed USB devices at the time of sync.
    -Make sure you have downloaded and installed latest version of iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    -Make sure you are using the iPhone USB Cable. If you are using one from another manufacture see if you can use the original iPhone USB cable or borrow another iPhone cable to ensure your cable properly works.
    -Uninstall Apple Software and Reinstall

  • Using two iPhones with iTunes - erase and sync message

    Me and my fiancée both have an iPhone 4. I connect to iTunes regularly and it does so automatically when I tether my phone to the lap top for Internet. We each have seperate Apple accounts. When I connected hers yesterday to add some music I got an 'erase and sync' message saying that her phone was linked to another iTunes library. We only have one lap top and so have only ever had the phones connected to that one iTunes on it. If I erase and sync will that delete all her apps, pictures etc And replace with the ones I have on my phone that have backed up to iTunes. We want to have different apps and photos.
    With our iPods we set them to manual and there's no problem, but with the iPhone there is.
    I don't think it matters but I'm on ios5 and she is on ios4, both are iPhone 4.

    No, I hadn't thought of that. I would have had my phone plugged in before and when I plugged her phone in I wasn't prompted for a password. So no, she wouldn't have been signed in.
    So, if I sign out of my account and sign in to hers, I shouldn't get this problem of being prompted to erase and sync?

  • New iPhone 6 - "erase and sync" to iTunes library to add non-iTunes music

    I'm handy with technology, but not a tech head so bear with me.
    My iPhone 5 16GB died so I bought a iPhone 6 64GB. Set it up and then "restored" my old iPhone 5 info from my iTunes backup onto it. So far, so good.
    I want to manually add music from the iTunes library onto the new phone. The Music app on my new phone shows I can download from the Cloud any songs onto to it that I purchased thru iTunes. Fine. But I want to move over some of the many songs I added to iTunes over the years from CDs, other online services, etc.
    When I click "Manually manage music and video" and try to sync music I get the infamous "The iPhone is synced with another library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync to this library?"
    This sounds like what I should do without worry as I have the phone recently backed up to the Cloud AND my iTunes, and have done little with the new phone since buying it. I've put all the iPhone photos on a hard drives, too. So if i "erase and sync," will this just repopulate my phone with all the previous info backed up on iTunes (photos, contacts, calendar, apps, etc) PLUS the music I want to manually add from the iTunes library?
    I know this may sound elementary to some of you, but honestly - I can't find any clear explanations online of what will be deleted and what will be added with the "erase and sync" in this situation.
    Thanks, all.

    Hi, when you indicate that you have checked the songs in the box, where do you mean you have checked them? In your Music Library, or do you mean on the Music Tab that you can only see when you hook your device up to iTunes and select the device? (i.e., in the same place where you see the "Summary" page).
    Cheers,

  • I just bought a new computer, if I erase and sync my iphone to sync it to my new library, will I lose my apps?

    I just bought a new computer, if I erase and sync my iphone to sync it to my new library, will I lose my apps?

    Hey cjacket13,
    When you purchase applications on your iOS device, they are tied to your Apple ID so even if you lose them, you can re-download them from your purchase history.
    That said, when you first sync your iPhone to your new computer you'll want to transfer purchases from your iOS device to the computer by following these directions here:

    No, it will sync the ipod to the content of the MBA which presumably has nothing on it (= erasing content of iPod and replacing it with nothing).

  • If I back up my iPhone, then "Erase and Sync" my iTunes, will everything on my phone be lost even though I backed it up?

    I recently purchased a new Macbook Pro. I am trying to add music onto my iPhone 5 from iTunes, but it isn't working. I read the discussions to manually add music, but when I try, I get this pop up message:
    The iPhone “Miranda’s iPhone” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?
    An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library.
    So, I backed up my iPhone to the computer, in hopes that everything on my phone would not get erased. However, I didn't "erase and sync" yet.
    My only concern is that the old iTunes library I had on my old Dell computer was with a different Apple ID, so how does this affect me?
    Will everything on my phone get erased even though I backed up my phone? Why can't I transfer music onto my phone with my new iTunes? I've tried everything. Please help me!
    I don't want to lose all my music from my iPhone. I have like over 600 songs, and the old computer I once used is now broken so I will never be able to get them back.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First, if you back up your iPhone in iCloud, you don't need a computer to restore the backup. If you use a different library or PC to sync the device, it will be erased automatically, so you have to copy the iTunes library from the computer that you use to sync the device in order to keep all your data on the phone. The answer is that it won't transfer the library to the new computer: copying the iTunes library to the new PC is enough
