Restore after reset?

If I do a hard reset on my iPad, will synching it restore all th eapps, data, settings, etc?

You're using the incorrect terminology, so that will confuse people. A "reset" as Apple and most people use the term is like restarting your computer. What you're proposing is a "restore".
I am assuming that is a carbon copy of the iPad, and that a synch after reset will restore it. Is that incorrect?
That is incorrect. Getting your iPod back to how it is now, with all its current content, data and settings, is a two-step process. See my post above.
Regards.

How much data is being backed-up from each Mac? (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
Most likely, there just isn't room. Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't. Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).

There are two different resets. The reset you did involved holding the sleep/wake & home button.
The other reset will do exactly what it says. That reset is located in Settings - General - Reset.

IPod Classic fails to restore or reset

A few times now all the music on my iPod just "disappeared".
Once while I was listening to music and it just stopped.
Looking at the iPod screen, it showed no music, no podcasts, no files of any type.
QUESTION: the hold button was on, so button pressing should not have made any difference.
"Where'd it go???"
I was able to restore the iPod and then resynch the music and it worked for a bit.
This time the music is gone and I cannot restore or reset the iPod and have it "take".
When I plug my iPod in both the Finder -and- iTunes will become non-responsive, although not at the same time.
After at least 3 minutes (feels much longer) the iPod will show up on the Desktop and in iTunes.
I've been through the trouble shooting page:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/#
I get to the "Restore" section, all of the steps are followed.
All of the screens defined on this page show up as expected.
However, again both the Finder and iTunes will freeze (become unresponsive) for an extended period.
When the iPod shows up in the Finder it has 4 folders: Contacts, Notes, Recordings and Calendar.
The "Notes" folder has a file called "Instructions" in it. The other folders are empty.
When I navigate to the Notes folder to view "Instructions" the Finder will become unresponsive.
Eventually iTunes then shows the expected "Welcome to your new iPod" screen.
The iPod shows "Connected: do not disconnect"
Around this time, the iPod shown in the Finder -may- no longer show any folders.
Clicking on "Continue" I get the "Sync with iTunes" screen in iTunes and the iPod shows either "Connected" or "Synching".
Again, there is a bit of a delay that seems excessive.
The summary screen shows that the iPod is formatted for Macintosh with software 2.0.4
capacity is 148.87 with 148.40 "free" according to the sync bar at the bottom of the page.
Going back to the Finder to see what "Instructions" contains, "Get Info" shows that it is a Unix Executable File of 14 bytes dated 8/20/01
It can be opened with 'Terminal'. The "more info:" section of the Info window keeps spinning. My iPod was purchased in 2010.
Back to iTunes:
"Check for Update" show 2.0.4 is the latest version.
Just for the halibut, I clicked on "Restore iPod" (NOTE: i've been through this same process several times already so I'm just trying something different.)
The same steps as outlined on the troubleshooing page happen.
Stage 2 of the restore showing the progress bar on the iPod happens very rapidly.
The "Welcome" screen shows up on the iPod and then the "connected" screen follows soon there after.
And we're back to the "Welcome to your new ipod" screen in itunes. ITunes becomes unresponsive for a brief period, but much faster than the last restore attempt. All the summary information is the same.
Going to the "Music" tab I add only 717 songs (I mean, why bother to do more unless this works?) The synch bar at the bottom of the frame
shows 137.82 GB free and a blue section shows up. I then add one TV show and a light brown color shows up on the synch bar and 137.27GB is free
I added a couple of podcasts 137.12GB is free.
I click on the "Apply" button and synching starts (Duh, why would that happen? ie why doesn't the button say "sync"?)
The iPod shows "Syncronizing: Do not disconnect"
itunes shows: "Syncing iPod" alternatine with "Syncing Music to ...(Step 2 of 2)"
The sync is complete. iTunes says the sync is complete and that the iPod should be ejected.
I click on the eject button inside of iTunes and a "Synching iPod" dialoge box comes up.
The iPod itself just shows "Connected"
The iPod finally shows "Ok to Disconnect" with a progress bar.
The iPod does not show up in iTunes or in the Finder.
Having disconnected the iPod at this point only to have my music disappear again, I'm waiting to see what happens.
The "Welcome" screen shows up on the iPod and dims. A couple minutes later the iPod shows "Charged" and then it dims.
I disconnect the iPod and select "English".
There is "No Music" "No Podcasts" "No Video".
Settings shows 11.7 GB used and 137GB free.
The "Used" is all "Other". 11.7GB is about the size of the Music and Podcasts that I loaded.
Connecting the iPod again, the iPod shows up in the Finder immediately, but not on iTunes.
The iPod shows "connected eject before disconnecting".
Minutes later, the iPod again shows the Folders listed above in the Finder and iTunes is now "not responding".
Basically, we're back to where we started.
Any clues?

I opened my iPod in disk mode:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
And used disk utility to repair it (no problems) and then reformat it (erase).
I reconnected the iPod through iTunes and restored it again and synched the same tunes as before.
Still "No Music".
Checking the SMART info for the HD, the numbers have risen dramatically. <sigh>

IMac mid 2007, 2.4 Ghz, 800 MHz... Grey screen only, running OS 10.5.8. Tried reinstalling, restoring, and resetting but to no avail. Possible to install OS 10.6 and get it to boot?

Try to boot and only getGrey screen, sometimes with the globe f
Asking, sometimes not.
I am running OS 10.5.8. Tried reinstalling, restoring, and resetting both with installation disc and without, but to no avail.
I recently upgraded from 1GB memory to 4 GB. It ran great for a couple of weeks, when I eventually powered it off, it would not come back. With installation disc, I did get to the utilities and tried repair and even reinstall original OS (several updates down from 10.5.8). At one point, I was able to restore a previous session, but it only lasted for about 3 days until I powered it off again, then back to square 1. I have verified the Macintosh HD disc and repaired it, I have reset everything I can find that might need resetting... Still nothing.
SO, is it toast, or is it possible to install OS 10.6 and get it to boot?

Erase the drive then install OS X:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
If this doesn't work then the drive is probably bad or some of the new RAM you installed is marginally defective.

Camera on 5s is frozen even after reset any ideas? Thx

My camera is frozen on my iPhone 5s even after resetting...any ideas? Thx

That is NOT unfreezing it for me. It returns to home page now after about thirty seconds of total freeze (worsened from last night).
And now some really strange things are adding to it, like when waking and sliding to unlock, the tab is sticking for several seconds to the right before opening home page. Nobody seems to know whether apps are saved in sync for easy load following a restore. (??)
Edit to add: when I try the hard reset, it simply prompts whether I want to shut down, so I guess yes, it does finally help to exit the frozen shutter, though as I said, it releases after about thirty seconds.
One more edit: I turned my iphone off and restarted it to find, knock on wood, that the camera's working now. Will see where it goes from here.

IPad 3rd Generation frozen after reset was done. I get a logo but no status bar

iPad 3rd Generation frozen after reset was done. I get a logo but no status bar

Hello there, darney87.
The following Knowledge base article offers up some great troubleshooting steps for the issue you're describing with your iOS device showing an Apple logo:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.
