If I reset/restore my old iPhone 4 for my sister to use, will it delete the photos in the photo stream on the phone from iPhoto on my macbook?

I want to delete everything off the phone but don't want the photo stream to update on the mac and delete the photos saved on it from the iPhone 4.
Thanks

If you proceed like described above, your Photo Stream should not be erased in iCloud, but it would be safer to download all Photo Stream photos to events on your Mac.

HT1535 I've lost a very important note on my ipod touch. Most of it should be synched on my computer. If I synch now, will it delete the note from my computer or restore it on my ipod?? Thanks!

If you properly erased all data on the iPod it would be exactly how it was the day it was bought. You would be instructed yto set up your iPod and to sign into your Apple ID account etc. If this has happened to you, you have properly erased your iPod.

HT201269 i need to get my old udid off my old iphone can u tell me how ? i dont have the phone any more but backed it up.

need help

Hi there,
I'm not sure how to find your UDID without your phone, but you can find your serial number on the iPhone's packaging and potentially the invoice of your iPhone purchase. You may also find the number by reaching out to Apple or the retailer you purchased the phone from. You may need to go in person and show your payment method and ID.

HT4910 iCloud won't let me erase my previous backups because it says its being used by another iPhone? the apple store recently replaced my old iPhone with a new one, and I want to delete the old backup, how will i do this if its still syncing to my old i

this is the error it gives me :/ how will i go about deleting my old iphone if i dont have it??

This should clear up on its own and allow you to delete the account, however it can take 3-5 days before this happens.

I have had my old iPhone 4S unlocked by my provider. I have given the phone to my husband and we want to erase my data and get him an Apple ID so he can put his data on the iPhone will this lock the phone?

I have had my iPhone 4S unlocked by my provider. I am successfully using a monthly plan and a new SIM card. I have given the iPhone to my husband. We would like to erase my data so my husband can add his and use the Cloud to back up his data. If we go through the erase process what is the safest way to do this so we don't re-lock the phone and disable the current SIM card?

Hi
If it was unlocked legitimately it will never relock. As you said you have sent this to your carrier to unlock this will always be unlocked however many times you restore the phone.
Hope this helps

How do I take my old iphone off my icloud storage after I no longer have the phone?

I need help taking my old iphone off my icloud storage.

The only storage it could be using is an old iCloud backup, if you were backing it up to iCloud. You can remove this from another device that is sharing the account by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap the name of the old phone under Backups, then tap Delete Backup.

My iphone 4 since going from OS 3 to 4 will no longer stay connected to my Prius. I delete the phone from my car and then reconnect and it might manually. It is becoming a hazard and an unintended consequence of the newest iPhone update. ARGH!Help?

Occaisionally I hit connect on my 2007 Prius and it connects. Sometimes on the iPhone4 General-BT i can hit connect and it connects. But mostly i have to delete the existence of my iphone to my car and re-pair it. Plus it rarely autoconnects except when i am testing it over and over. Leave the car and it will never autoconnect again. Its become an unintended consequence of my iPhone and truly a hazard when i forget to arrange it before getting started on a drive. Mac store says its my prius and toyota says its my phone. Any hints greatly appreciated.

Talk to Toyota. The fault is in their in-car system. Talk to Toyota corporate. The dealers are clueless. Your system needs to be updated.

IPhone device is not showing up. A 3 years old iPhone, reactivated for my daughter's use. It was mine for the past 3 years, then my husband bought me the 4G for Mother's Day. Have the service turned on but device doesn't show when hooked up to my laptop?

So what do we need to do to get the older phone to show? It did before I switched phones. I have a CD I downloaded into iTunes that she would like to place on her phone.
Thank you!

There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.

Any way to get photos/data off 3gs before restoring? I have no backup so procedure I believe will override/delete all photos I think. Help - promise to back up in future.

How do I save photos before restoring Iphone 3gs? Phone crashed, wants me to restore via i tunes. I have no
backup so believe restore process will delete all my photos. Any way out. I promise to back up in future. Hlep..

Thanks. Someone advised there are services that can retrieve the data AS LONG AS I DON'T RESTORE. The photos etc. remain/exist, but as you indicate will be lost if restore takes place. Thanks, though.
