If I update my iPhone would my picture be deleted?
Hello!
Somebody told told me that because I didn't update my iPhone with iOS 7 when it occurs my pictures will be deleted!!
is that right?
My iPhone is 5 and it is iOS 6
And also, how can I stop the iCloud from sending my pictures to other devices that have the same iCloud email that I have!
Thank you!
Your pictures should not be deleted if the update goes without error but just to be safe it's always good to make a complete backup of your device before updating using either iTunes, iCloud, or even both.
If you don't want pictures being sent from one device to others with the same iCloud account, go to the device's Settings>Photos &Camera and move the "My Photo Stream" slider from on to off (or go to the device's Settings>iCloud>Photos and slide the "My Photo Stream" from on to off).

When I updated my iphone 4s the picture of the person calling me is no longer displayed full screen and the thumbnail picture is too small. Is there anything I can do to change this?
Yes, hopefully.. Go to www.apple.com/ feedback and let them know how upset you are!! I did along with many others. It's the only way to let Apple know they made a HUGE mistake here..

I did the 6.1.2 update and all of my pictures are deleted. HELP
The 6.1.2 update came out today for the iphone and I updated it thinking it wasn't different than the last updates, well it ended up restoring which deleted all of my contacts, most of my songs, most of my apps and ALL OF MY PICTURES AND VIDEOS from the past year. I havent had time to sync my phone in like a month so none of my pictures are on my laptop. How can I get it all back?
Sorry, but if you didn't bother to back them up, they're most likely gone.

Upon completion of matching and uploading my very large library of music (+15,000), I wanted to see how iTunes Match worked on my iPhone. I started it and selected the first album in the list to listen to. I let it play the entire album and then decided that I wanted to remove certain songs off of the iPhone's local storage. Tried to delete the individual songs and it would not let me. So I figured that I would go back and just delete the album. After selecting delete I went back to listen to one of the songs on the album and realized that it deleted several of the songs from the iTunes Match completely. When pulling iTunes up on my computer the songs are still there but does not give me the option to upload to iTunes Match.
I have tried turning off Match on iPhone and back on (doesn't seem to do anything cause when turned off the iPhone still displays the music.)
Then tried power cycling. (Still shows the music)
Then I tried power cycling again and resyncing the phone and the iPhone still shows the music as it was on the phone.
How do I get the music to be accessable on the iPhone again.. I have been messing with this for the course of 3 hours now.. and any help would be appreciated!!
iPhone 3GS 8GBActually Michael I know exactly how to delete.. The iPhone would not let me swipe to the left to delete the individual song, so I went to the album view and did it there.. The issue I am having is a bug because it removed 3/4 of the albums availablity off my iPhone.. You post proved no help because it is basic troubleshooting which, if you read my post, I have already done.. I did however figure out how to fix my issue on my own.. Basically I had to remove the album from my iTunes on my computer and upload it again to iTunes Match..

How would a software update fix iPhones taking yellow pictures?
I am one of the unlucky owners of a yellow picture taking iPhone 4. I have read seveal other threads where people say that hopefully this can be fixed in a software update. Pardon my lack of iPhone prowess but I was just wondering, wouldn't writing a universal software update to fix the problem in one phone then change the software in a properly working phone, in turn potentially causing problems in those phones? In other words, how would they write a software fix that would KNOW which iPhone needed the correction while not impacting the iPhones that are already working fine?

I think all iP4's have this issue but it depends on the lighting. I have tested this on my phone and seven others. Outside in sunlight (about 5500K lighting) it works fine and white balance is very good. Under my Modeling Lights (3200K) still very good but when you get down to low wattage (40 watts) incandescent lighting (2500K) photos are very yellow. I think all iP4's suffer from this, at least the seven that I tested including my own. A software update can fix the way the white balance is corrected.

Will updating my iPhone 5 to iOS 7 delete anything?
I'm planning to download iOS 7 when it comes out in a few days, and I was wondering if it would delete anything. I read online that it would delete everything, then restore it again, but I still didn't know if app data would still be preserved or not. If you back it up to iTunes, will app data still be backed up? I've updated my old iPhone 4 to iOS 6 and it deleted everything, and sadly, I didn't back it up :/ Thank you!

It is always prudent and recommended to Backup before any major Update / Upgrade.

After my last update mu iphone and ipad has an deleted apple id, but my itunes have the new on and I cannot change it on my devices. Any help would be appreciated.
If it's an old account which you'd updated with a new email address then try logging out of it on the iPad (and iPhone) by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad (and iPhone). If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

Since installing the 7.0.4 updates my iPhone 4S won't let me delete voicemail messages. Help
Since installing the 7.0.3 and now the 7.04 updates my IPhone 4S won't easily delete voice messages. I have to try over and over. There is no rhyme or reason as to why it sometimes works. The guy at Verizon said Apple did it on purpose to force you to upgrade to the Apple IPhone 5 series. I've heard the iPhone 5 has problems also.
I've always liked my Apple products: MacBook Pro, IPad 2, but now I'm worried about buying an IPhone. I hate to give up on the syncing capability but this is a pain.
Advise?
Thanks!What is the model of your iphone? I have a hunch but need more data to see if I'm correct. Thanks!

When I updated my iphone 4 with itunes. it deleted songs and changed my ringtones. How do I stop this from happening in the future and get my songs replaced?
You have POP mail account. That's how those types of email accounts work.
You want an IMAP type of account, where if you delete on phone, it will also delete on server. Should you ever restore your device again it will only update the mail that hasn't been deleted.
You didn't say which email service you use, but try contacting them to see if they offer IMAP. Or you can switch. -
when i updated my iphone 4 to the latest software, it warned me that i would lose the "purchased" items on the phone. i agreed with this and carried on, but when i had updated it, everything on the phone was lost!! contacts, pictures everything!!!!!! is there a way that i can get these things back? when i agreed with the notice, it didnt say id lose everything else that i did not purchase!!
does enyone know of a way to get the things back
if you do please help!!!!!!!!
Many thanks!!Seems that you can no longer hide them on your phone. Try doing so in iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

How can I retrieve photos when it says my cloud and iTunes backups are empty or not backed up?
When I tried to update my iPhone 5s to iOS 8.1, I was forced to choose to restore or back up. Back up wasn't working so I had no choice but to restore. I lost pictures over the last two years. When I tried my cloud, there was nothing. I would get notifications that my cloud was full, but I thought there would at least be some photos in there. When I tried to restore a back up, it said the last time was two years ago. I thought when you're on wifi, it automatically backs up. I've charged my iPhone into my Macbook a bunch of times, so something should have backed up. Is there any hope for my photos?Sorry no backup - no pictures.
Yes phone will automatically backup to icloud when on wifi and phone is charge, but your phone storage was full so it stop backing up.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
When your phone was connected to your computer, you should've seen an autoplay which would've allowed you to import your pics to your computer as you would a digital camera Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support -
I recently backed up my iphone to itunes, when after backing up a message showed that I needed to update my iphone. I clicked ok, and after updating, it said I had to restore my phone to its factory settings. I cannot find where it backed up all of my pictures from my phone.
If you backed up the device, all the data is in the backup. Restore the backup.
A better question is why would an intelligent person not copy the pictures from the device to the computer regularly, especially before attempting an update, as the device is designed to be used? -
I was trying to update my iphone software then there was an error and it started to remove stuff out of my phone. it said it would restore since my last backup which was last year. I dont care about my apps or music. Are my photos and contacts removed since my last backup?
Did you fail to create a backup of the device prior to attempting to update?
Why did you choose to update iOS without first ensuring there was a backup and that all of your media and pictures were on the computer the device normally syncs with? Sorry, but that was beyond not smart.
If you've lost media, pictures, contacts, etc, there is nothing that can be done without a current backup to restore from. Hopefully you have learned an important lesson.
