HT4137 if i restore my ipod will i lose all of my pictures ?

If I restore my ipod will I lose all of my pictures ?

Yes, unless you create a backup of your iPod before you restore it via iTunes. See here for what is included in the backup.
iTunes: About iOS backups
And information on how to backup your device.
iOS: How to back up
If these were synced photos, they won't be included in the backup that you can make via iTunes or iCloud, but since they originally were synced from your PC, they should still be there.

HT1212 Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed?

Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed? I do not think it has been synced with a computer before.

Disabled
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.
Otherwise y will have to restore and thus erase the iPod
You can restore from backup
If not in backup then:
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Maybe from the restored iPod via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

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.

If i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

if i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

Depends on how you do it
If you create a partition with Boot Camp and format that partition correctly
Then install Windows your data should not be touched
If you do anything wrong or there is any mishap during the whole procedure you could lose everything
Hence the reason I suggest that you backup first

Connect your iphone to your computer
Hold down the home button and the power button until the screen goes blank

If i restore my iPad Will i lose all the información including the apps?

i would like to restore my iPad but i have got my email from work installed with my work configuration so i'm affraid of losing it?..

Before you restore it you should back it up onto a computer with iTunes or back up to iCloud if you have enough iCloud storage available.

The only account on my macbook is a standard account. I need to somehow get an administrator account. How can I do that, and if I do, will I lose all my data?

I got my macbook from my dad a while back, and I tried to make me the administrator. But in doing so, I somehow activated a root user, and now my account (which is also the only account now) is a standard one, so I can not download apps, etc. How can I fix this without losing my files?

Option 1
If you've enabled root logins, log in as root and promote the other user to an admin.
Option 2
Boot into Recovery (command-R at startup) and restore your system from the last Time Machine snapshot taken before the damage was done, if you know when that was. Afterwards you can restore any data that has changed since then from a later snapshot. If you’re an advanced user familiar with the shell, there may be a quicker fix, but I prefer not to get into that.
Option 3
Back up all data, then boot in single-user mode (command-S at startup.) When the text stops scrolling, follow the prompts to make the boot volume writable. Then enter the following command:
ls /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
You should get the following line of output below what you entered:
/var/db/.AppleSetupDone
If you do, then very carefully enter the following command:
rm !$
Now you should get the following output:
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
Then enter
reboot
The system will boot into the Setup Assistant, as if you were setting it up for the first time. Skip the prompt to transfer information. Create a user with the same name as the old admin user. Log in and test. You may need to recreate your other user accounts, if any. The files won't be deleted.

If I download Mavericks, will I lose all my data on my mac currently?

Like files, apps I've downloaded like Chrome, bookmarks in safari and chrome, other apps I've downloaded from the app store, etc. Do i need to backup things? If so, how do I back them up?

The installer is meant to just overwrite the previous OS and leave your files be. However, nothing is perfect and having a backup of your system before upgrading is a necessity. Use Time Machine before upgrading your system.

My iphon5 is in recovery mode. will I lose all my pics and videos, if i restore it?

My iPhone5 is in recovery mode and itunes is asking to restore it. Will I lose all my photos and videos if I do so?
Thanks!

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...
