If I reset my phone will everything be deleted like my pictures and contacts
An iPhone reset is similar to a computer restart, and the answer is no with a reset.
When restoring an iPhone with iTunes, the iPhone is completed erased first including iOS. After iOS is reinstalled, you are prompted to restore from an available backup for your iPhone. If you are backing your iPhone up locally on your computer with iTunes, iTunes updates the iPhone's backup as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
Regardless if there is an iPhone backup available, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air including a free Apple iCloud account. You don't have to worry about your contacts being included with your iPhone's backup when doing so.
Photos and videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera epecially immediately before restoring the iPhone with iTunes and before installing an iOS update.

HT1766 i want to reset my phone will everything be deleted even though its backed up
i want to reset my phone will everythig be deleted (pics,messages,apps)
A reset (pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears) will not affect data in any way.
A restore (as new) puts the device into a clean, out of the box state.
A restore (from backup) restores the device to the exact condition when the backup was created on the most current version of iOS for that device. -

If i back up my phone due to the wifi option being grayed out it says to connect to itunes and reset my phone but everything will get deleted that wont happen if everything is in my icloud account correct
If Wi-Fi is greyed out, it is not possible to backup to iCloud.
If the device is backed up to iTunes and contacts, calendars, notes, etc are synced to a supported application or cloud service, and media and pictures are on the computer, then a restore will not cause any data to be lost. -
If i reset my phone will i loose contacts
if i reset my phone will i loose all my contacts?
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 phone will my update still be on it?
If I reset my phone will my update still be on my phone?
Yes, a reset, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release, does not affect data.

Hello there, SamanthaYikwai.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some basic steps to try for reinstalling an app:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
Reinstall the app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
Delete the app.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store and download the app again.
Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
If the download stops, you can resume it.
If the issue persists, then you may want to try and sync the application to your iOS device using your computer by following the information in this article, under the section "Download previous purchases on Mac or PC":
Download past purchases

I had to completely reset my phone back to "new" at the Apple Store and the Genius told me that my PhotoStreams would download automatically back to my iPhone after the reset. They have not. Are they lost forever?
Have you logged into iCloud on the phone? If not they won't be there, also just to let you know photo stream doesn't keep your photos forever anyway. It will keep up to 1000 photo's after that it will delete the oldest photo there, it will also delete any photo that is 30 days old.

My phone keeps saying the storage is full so I deleted pictures, apps, and all my texts. Then after I do this my phone freezes and I have to restart it. When I restart my phone then everything I deleted comes back. What is going on?
HI Shelby,
It sounds like your available free space is not reporting properly. I would start by quitting the Settings app:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes, then restore it as new and verify that it works.
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

No. The data that you downloaded from your iPhone will remain on your MBP.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
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
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
