Ios 6.1.3 upgrade deleted apps and data

Hi
The upgrade to ios 6.1.3 has removed apps and data from my iPad 2.
The iPad had been previously connected to a Win 7 PC with iTunes backing up and running fine.
I connected it to a new Mac and new iTunes as the old Win 7 PC was removed and I did a manual backup of it in it's current state and did not clear or sync the iPad (e.g. I did not sync iTunes to replace contacts or photos etc).
The upgrade to 6.1.3 from 6.1 came up on the Mac and I approved it in iTunes on the Mac and the process started ... silly me ... what was I thinking ...
During the restart of the iPad it froze and I had to power cycle the iPad (I don't know if this has any significance).
When the iPad finished the ios upgrade it was missing MY apps and data (e.g. mindmap app with maps, note taking app with years of notes, photos, videos etc) and has just the apps that come with the iPad installed.
I chose to do a "restore backup" to the backup that the ios upgrade made at the ios upgrade - it gave me the same result.
I chose to do a "restore backup" from the manual backup I mentioned I did days before the ios upgrade - the same result.
I now have an iPad without my apps and data and photos and videos and I'm screwed .... (and incredibly annoyed).
Apart from slitting my wrists after sending Apple flame mail what other courses of action can people suggest?

This problem has nothing to do with updating to iOS 6.1.3.
It was caused by connecting your iPad to a new iTunes to which it had never been synched with. This will clear the iPad of all its content. There are warnings that this will happen.
Although there are ways to move an iPad to a new iTunes without losing anything that won't help you much now. At this point you can restore your Apps at no charge but your data is gone unless you can find a backup file on your old PC from which you could restore your ipad.

I keep deleting apps and other items on my iPhone to clear up space but it just seems to be taking up more space. The used free space is actually getting smaller. How can I fix this?

I apologize if this has already been asked and answered but I couldn't find anything.
I've been deleting stuff to clear up space, and it's not clearing anything up. I went from 3.0 gigs to 2.3 just from deleting apps and photos and music. How can I fix that?

Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

I upgraded facebook app and now I can't turn it sideways? anyone know why?

You must have screen rotation locked. Double click the home button then swipe with your finger on the button of the screen all the way to the right. Then you will see a square with a circular arrow or a padlock in it. Tap on that to unlock t he screen.

TS4009 I received an email from apple stating my icloud storage was almost full. I deleted apps and photos and the storage has not changed, so what am I supposed to do?

I received an email from apple stating my icloud storage was almost full. I deleted apps and photos and the storage has not changed, so what am I supposed to do?

... I clicked on it (I know I am not supposed to do this - I won't ever do it again) and no window opened up.
You're right - it is never a good idea to click on links sent in an email unless you are absolutely certain they are legitimate, and that is only becoming more difficult as spammers and phishing attempts are getting better every day. Having no association with Verizon is all the more reason to simply delete the thing.
Next, by supplying your email address all you did was confirm to whatever site was sending you this spam that your email address was legitimate. Again, when in doubt just delete the email and forget you ever saw it.
... How can I check to see if my computer has been hacked and how can I protect it further.
The good news is that is highly unlikely. The bad news is that your email address might be used as the "from" address for spam sent to others, and that you are only more likely to get more spam from the phony Verizon site as well as every other potentially malicious operators.
The best advice would be to simply abandon that email address, but if you can live with the previous potential concerns it would be overkill. I would recommend changing your passwords for financial institutions (banks, credit cards and so forth) as well as your email account or accounts. That is simply good practice whether or not you did what you did.
As far as any malware is concerned, again that is unlikely, but make sure you run Software Update to get all Apple's latest updates.

HT4623 I recently updated my 64 gig 4S to OS7, my apps don't work any more, the apps store won't work, I've tried deleting apps and reinstalling, no good. The phone is just a phone now

since updating my apps don't work anymore, the app store won't connect, I tried deleting apps and reinstalling, no go. The phone is just a phone now.

Try accessing the Store through the Music App first then use the other app.
You've already tried a Reset, Restore from Backup, Restore as New?

If you can't reach the person that sold it to you, you essentially have an iBrick.
You are encountering Activation Lock, which cannot be bypassed.
You may want to just turn the phone over to the police as it's nothing more to you than a paperweight and may be stolen.

When I sync my iPhone 4S to my computer, where is the baseline data and documents coming from? Is the iPhone's set of apps and data the default set or are the apps and data on the computer (in the backup? in iTunes?) the default set?

I am having a great deal of trouble with the upgrade to ios 7 on my 4S. The syncing and the software updates always leave generic icon apps that I have downloaded in the past but have deleted from my phone. But they keep reappearing. A restart of the phone fixes the icons but they are loaded not at the last page of the home screen but on completely random pages, screwing up my app and folder layout.
I want to completely wipe the phone and restore the apps one by one, but I am concerned about whether the data and documents for those apps that I reinstall will be intact. Does the syncing for the apps on the phone retrieve the data from the last backup on the computer? If so, does it only sync the apps on the phone or does it try and reinstall all the apps that there is data for in the backup? In other words, does the resulting set of apps and data reflect the current state of the phone or the saved state of the backup?

Apple guys are deleting posts. I have found my posts have been deleted. Apple should MUST let us downgrade at least to previous release from current which was working fine.

How to delete documents and data off of iphone 4s

Im trying to free up some room on my phone. I got rid of some apps and movies and did what i can but when i plug my phone in there is more Documents & data then i have as apps and music. i just want to get ride of some documents that are saved in my phone but dont now hot to delete them.

Document & Data on iPhone is junks files including browser history, cookies, logs, caches of photos and videos, database files stored by your apps. You’ll notice that some apps while being very small themselves have accumulated a lot of data. An example of this is shown in the image below, you see that the Facebook app is 109 MB whereas the Documents & Data stored is 1.2 GB. This 1.2 GB is what goes into your “Other” data.
These apps on iPhone don’t provide a way to delete Documents and Data, uninstalling and reinstalling the app is not the best option here. With the help of CleanMyPhone or PhoneClean you can delete the documents and data on iPhone without deleting the app itself.

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc?

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc so I don't lose all of that information and can easily switch to a singular apple id?

Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.
Changing the email address you use for your Apple ID -

Can I restore settings, apps and data from an external hard drive to new Macbook Pro?

I recently lost my Macbook Pro to water damage. It was about 3 years old and tuned for comfort. Unfortunately, my most recent backup is at least 3 months old. I purchased a new MacBook Pro and I'm wondering what my options are for migrating my settings, apps and data from the old hard drive to the new MacBook Pro? I have a USB drive bay that I plan to attach to the new MBP to gain access to the old hard drive. Someone suggested Migration Assistant but my research hasn't turned up any information about migrating data from an external drive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

THANKS! I guess my research wasn't THAT thorough. I booted with the external drive attached and setup immediately gave me the option to setup using Migration Assistant. It was a little slow via USB (2+ hours) but it was nothing compared to the time it would have taken to do it manually. My new 15" MBP looks exactly like my old 13" MBP. AWESOME!!!
Thanks again!
