If i reset my ipod will i loose everything?

wondering?

- This is the reset as defined in the users guide. Nothing is lost:
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- There are also several options in Settings>General>Reset:
Reset
You can reset the word dictionary, network settings, home screen layout, and location warnings.
You can also erase all of your content and settings.
Erase all content and settings: Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Erase All Content and
Settings.
After confirming that you want to reset iPod touch, all content, personal information, and settings
are removed. It cannot be used until it’s set up again.
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.
Reset network settings Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings.
When you reset network settings, your list of previously used networks and
VPN settings not installed by a configuration profile are removed. Wi-Fi is
turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any network you’re
on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings are left turned on.
To remove VPN settings installed by a configuration profile, go to Settings >
General > Profile, then select the profile and tap Remove. This also removes
other settings and accounts provided by the profile.
Reset the keyboard dictionary Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Keyboard Dictionary.
You add words to the keyboard dictionary by rejecting words iPod touch
suggests as you type. Tap a word to reject the correction and add the word
to the keyboard dictionary. Resetting the keyboard dictionary erases all
words you’ve added.
Reset the Home screen layout Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Home Screen Layout.
Reset location warnings Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Location Warnings.
Location warnings are requests made by apps to use Location Services.
iPod touch presents a location warning for an app the first time the app
makes a request to use Location Services. If you tap Cancel in response, the
request isn’t presented again. To reset location warnings so that you get a
request for each app, tap Reset Location Warnings.

IF I RESET MY IPOD WILL I LOOSE ALL THE MUSIC AND PICTURES UP LOADED

PLEASE LET ME KNOW ..... I AM BEGININ TO THINK THIS IPOD VIDEO WAS NOT A GOOD I DEA I CANT HEAR MY MUSIC AT ALL CUASE IT DOES NOT PLAY JUST STAY IDDLE ON SONG THAT I PIC W/ ALBUM PIC AND SONG DESCRIPTON...... WHAT SHOULD I DO

Restting the iPod (Press and hold Select and Menu for ~10 seconds) will not erase anything ffrom the iPod.
Restoring will erase everything on theiPod.
But since you have everything in iTunes, you can reload it.

TS2446 If i create a new apple id account on my ipod, will i still have all my music, apps, books and other stuff on my ipod that i downloaded and bought with my old account or will i loose everything; will i be able to still do the updates to those apps?

If I create a new apple id account on my ipod, will I still have all my music, apps, books and other stuff on my ipod that I downloaded and bought with my old account or will I loose everything; will I be able to still do the updates to those apps?
I really need help!

I don't think you understood what I wrote. You don't HAVE to pay for everything if you are happy with using the other account for updates, etc. But if you don't want to do that then you will have to buy new copies of everything for the new account. There's only one purchase item per account, but you can redownload an item in the account many times.
The idea is this:
One computer, multiple devices, one Apple ID.
One user, multiple devices, one Apple ID.
The basic idea is that each user has an Apple ID under which he/she can manage multiple devices on a single computer.
Once you step outside of that model you create such problems as not being able to use or update apps purchase under one Apple ID when using a different Apple ID. Or not being able to easily sync one device on more than one computer.

When I click on some songs in my itunes library it says the file is not detected. If i hook up my ipod will i loose the songs already on it or will it retore the files to itunes?

Before to attach your ipod.... try to find the file where you put your music.... click on that song.... itunes will ask you if you want to locate it.... from there you have to find the song(s) that is one of the folders in your PC.

New computer, reloading itunes, but will i loose everything on ipod?

i just got a new computer and am preparing to download itunes. my most important question is when I do plug in my ipod will I loose all my downloaded apps? and pictures and music?

Yup, sadly, but fret not little lamb there is a solution. Before reloading itunes, connect your ipod and move all the pictures off it but going into my computer and selecting it, put them where you want on your computer, you can move them back later. As for the movies and apps, there is the magical cloud. It is one of the only amazing things about itunes. Once you have downloaded itunes sign in and before syncing, go to the purchased tab and on the bottys previously purchased. When you click on that it opens a new window with every song app, video and the like ever purchased on your account. You can also sign in on other peoples accounts and download their stuff. Unfortunately it only works for purchased items, so anything you want that was put on from a cd, you are out of luck. Hope that solves it for you!!!!!

It really depends what you mean with reset.
Factory Restore?
Updating your iOS?
Restarting your iPhone?
Factory Restore:
If you back your files, no.
Updating your iOS?
Backup, and everything is stored.
Restarting your iPhone?
Let me ask you a question, you restart your PC, did you lose any of your files?

If I reset my ipod do I loose the songs already on it?

I am having problems syncing my ipod and have 939 songs on it, is this full? If I reset the Ipod do I loose the songs already on it?

No. A reset does not erase media from your iPod. It is the equivalent of rebooting your PC.

If I reset my iPad will I loose all my apps too?

If I reset my iPad will I loose all the apps too?

Yes that's fine.
Every time you purchase something on iTunes, they link the purchases to your apple ID.
You'll notice the apps you've purchased before will either have 'installed' next to them in the App Store, or 'install'.
If it has a price next to it, you'll be charged, so be careful downloading ones you think you've already purchased.

HT4972 if i backup my ipod will it save everything when i update on a different computer?

if i backup my ipod will it save everything when i update on a different computer?

- The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music. If those synced items are not on the computer on which you do the update they will not be oj the iPod after the update. The update erases the iPod
- First transfer iTunes purchases:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- The restore the iPod from that backup. The restore will also update the iPod.

Will i loose everything?

Hi all.
Problem!
My iphone 4 is in desperate need of updating as it hasnt had a software update in 6 months +
The phone is registered to my ex wifes itunes account on our old computer which has all the contacts, photos and tunes on.
If I create a new account in my name, will I loose everything on the phone and have to start from scratch again?
I have lots of pictures, LOTS of music and all my contacts in there and really dont want to loose them by starting a new account and running the risk of everything vanishing.
Any help or advise would be very greatfully accepted
Cheers in advance,
J

You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

If i swap apple id accounts will i loose everything from my device

i had my apple id set up using my dads account and i have made my own and now want to use the new account. will i loose all my games, photos and other things be lost off of my ipod and ipad?

You can change the account used in the following and not lose anything:
Settings>iTunes and App stores.
However, note that
- 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.
You can also change the ID for Settings>FaceTIme, Settings Messages>Send and Receive and not lose anything
You can change it in Settings>iCloud but you may lose contacts, calendar and some other things.

HT1711 Need to upgrade iTunes but laptop says it can't because iTunes was improperly installed. If I uninstall, will I loose everything?

I need to upgrade iTunes but my laptop say's it can't because iTunes was improperly installed to begin with. If I uninstall iTunes, will I loose all the work I've put into my downloads and my playlists?

No.
However, you do maintain complete and regular backups of your computer, correct?
For iTunes, the iTunes library is the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder.
