Only if the apps and music are not in the iTunes library of the computer on which you do the update. See:

If i update itunes will i lose my apps and contacts and the other contents?

if i update itunes will i lose my apps and contacts and the other contents?

No. In fact, it is possible to uninstall iTunes and then re-install iTunes without losing any content.
Removing, updating, and repairing the application has no affect on the media stored on the system.

HT1444 If i download the new OS X Mountain Lion to my Macbook Pro that has Snow Leopard, will i lose my apps and downloads (such as: Microsoft word, powerpoint, excel, oovoo, skype) and will i lose all of my pictures/documents and information?

I should just change the OS and leave all your apps and data alone. That said, if any of your apps are old and use Rosetta (ppc apps), they won't run under Mountain Lion.
Make sure you take a good Time Machine or Clone backup before you convert.

If I Create a New iTunes Account, will I lose my Apps and Songs?

My wife has an Apple Id and I have another.
We share the same music library on our desktop but any purchases from iTunes in terms of Apps and Songs are only limited to the device/apple ID that we bought it with.
So here's my question: if I create a new Apple Id that will be used with her iPad, my iPhone and her iPhone will we:
- Be able to keep the Apps and songs we bought with the original Apple IDs?
- If so, will they be deleted once I sync it or will I lose saved games (I play Grand Theft Auto), etc?
- Will we both lose our contacts on our phones?
- If I so, can I retrieve the current contacts I have on the cloud and import into the new account?
In terms of the contacts, should I just work on a project to make sure that all my contacts are on my GMail and let my iPhone use that one as default and do the same for her so I don't have to worry about it?
Thanks!

I have three different accounts and at some time or another have bought apps with them all. If there is an update the Iphone automatically asks me to login with the appropriate credentials to update. They all live happily on Itunes and I can log in and out on Itunes as well with no ill effects.

If I deauthorise my iPhone and put it on a new Apple ID, will I lose my apps and game scores?

My step-dad has bought yet another Apple product, and we're now over the 10 devices limit. He wants me to switch to my own ID instead, but will I loose all the paid apps I have bought, and all my game scores (some of them have taken me ages!!)?????
Thanks in advance!

Yes, you will lose everything purchased under the old ID. You can't merge IDs.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

After upgrading IOS 7.0.2, will my data an applications remain same in my iphone 4S?

after upgrading IOS 7.0.2, will my data an applications remain same in my iphone 4S?

If all goes well, there should not be an issue. However,
you should always perform a backup before doing any
update or upgrade as anything can happen.
Perform both a backup via iTunes and via iCloud and perform
a sync of all apps, music, photos, etc. with iTunes.

Will I lose my sms and notes if I upgrade to 6.0.1

I have an iPhone 4 which currently is running on iOS 6. Will I lose my sms and notes if I upgrade to iOS 6.0.1? Other things I am not worried about. SMS is a must. Please suggest a wayout.

If you are updating from iOS 6, you won't lose data. However, you must make an iTunes or iCloud backup before updating in case the update fails and you have to restore the iPhone

Will i lose my songs and pictures if i upgrade my iphone to the 5.0 version if this isn't the original computer i used when i first got itunes?

Will I lose my songs and pictures if i upgrade my iphone to the 5.0 version if the computer i am going to do it on is not the original computer i had itunes on, my old computer died!

You can back up your Iphone in Itunes on any computer. Then restore after the upgrade if it was erased. iTunes has an option to even pick which backup file you want to use. I believe its pressing the alt key holding it and pressing restore. I did it on a windows pc so might be different. for a big update, apple iOS's are generally good with keeping files, but its always a good idea to back up your device. I just upgraded my MBP to Lion and didnt loose anything.

Back up your iphone. Erase all content and settings and try to update again. Also on you computer make sure your signed in as the administrator and All antivirus and firewalls are disabled. http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451

If I upgrade my factory unlocked iphone to a new firmware, will I lose may apps, data or carrier unlock??

If I upgrade my factory unlocked iphone to a new firmware, will I lose may apps, data or carrier unlock?? I have a 4.3.3 firmware but want 5.0.1

If it's a genuine factory unlocked phone from Apple you should have no problems. I have had two, a 3GS and now a 4S, and they update and handle just like the locked phones. If it has been hacked in any way, though, all bets are off.

Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

I have made a card in iPhoto 7, but when I went to order it said it would not support that. If I upgrade to 9.5.1, will my card be there and will I be able to order it?

I have made a card in iPhoto 7, but when I went to order it said it would not support that. If I upgrade to 9.5.1, will my card be there and will I be able to order it?

The Apple online printing services only support iPhoto 8 (09) or later. If you upgrade to iPhoto to 9.5.1 the card will still be there and you'll be able to order the card. There is a small chance that the theme you've choses is no longer available. What these was it?
You will have to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on your library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1. The upgrader will be installed in your Applications/Utilities folder.
Note: Since you're upgrading from iPhoto 7 you will have to purchase iPhoto 9.5.1.

After i upgrade to a new phone, will my old 4s still continue to work on wifi for apps and music? or do I need phone service?

after i upgrade to a new phone, will my old 4s continue to work on wifi for apps and music only? to be used like an ipod?

The support article referenced says to insert the SIM Card from my new phone in the old phone. That won't work since I have an iPhone 5 and the iPhone 4S uses a different size SIM card.
What do I need to do to get past the "Insert a SIM card" message when I don't have the right size card lying around?
