What happens if I choose Reset All Settings?
My iPhone is giving this popup that says: "Unable to Purchase: 'The Simpsons Arcade FREE' and 1 other item could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later." frequently when I try to update or install any app. (The app installs fine though.) Apple Care suggested I choose Reset All Settings to get rid of the problem. My question is, what exactly happens? Do settings and preferences in the apps get deleted too, or just system settings?
That's sounds just crazy enough to work, like a combination of things I already tried. I'm going to post what you said to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3681763?tstart=0 and see if it helps pepole. Meanwhile, I did one update to an app since doing what you said and didn't get the message, so we'll see if it comes back.

What happen to the Photo library when I choose Reset all Settings on my Ipad?
I just wanna know what will happen to all of my photos if I choose Reset all Settings on the Ipad 2
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Reset All Settings does not delete anything, all it does is take most of the iPad's settings back to default (with the exception of accounts setting, and maybe a couple other things.) It is perfectly safe.
The only inconvenience is that you have to go back through almost all your settings and set them to your preference. -

What happens if I reset all settings?
I was wondering what would happen if I choose to reset all settings? I was told that if I reset it all my ipod wouldn't crash as often as it is doing right now. What will I have to do again? What is going to be erased? And in what way will this help my ipod?
Yes it may help with crashing. It does:
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. -

What is lost when resetting all settings on iPad
What is lost when resetting all settings on ipad2
This is copied from the iPad User Guide for 4.3 - the book version that can be downloaded from iBooks.
Reset all settings: Choose General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
Enter your passcode if you have one. All your settings are reset. Information (such as your contacts and calendars) and media (such as your songs and videos) aren’t deleted.
Essentially, you reset preferences like the way that you had brightness set, your home screen layout, WiFi settings, sounds, alerts, that type of thing. It will reset those things to the factory settings - just like it was out of the box. -
Can Apple Configurator deploy and modify Apple TV iOS 6.0 settings? For instance, what if I wanted to submit a 'reset all settings' command, but not a 'factory restore'?
Did you follow the instructions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4367
Pay attention to differences in power connection depending on whether or not you have AppleTV2 or AppleTV 3.
Also some microUSB leads don't seem to work - try another if you can. Disconnect superfluous USB device/hubs too if possible.

I can't add video on instagram. It always fails. I read on the web that i shoul reset all settings. So I wanted to reset all settings. But it requires passcode. I forgot that passcode. What can I do? Is it possible to change that passcode?
To change the passcode if you have forgotten it the only option is to Restore your iPhone to Factory settings by connecting it to iTunes on your computer. And you can try the below steps to Reset your iPhone settings without need of any passcode.
Reset ( No Data will be lost )
First Make sure the Battery of your iPhone is Charged and then press and Hold the On/Off switch (On top of your iPhone) and the Home Button (Button at the bottom of your iPhone screen). Hold both the keys simultaneously for atleast 10 to 15 seconds and you should see an Apple Logo coming up on your screen, once you see the Apple logo you can then release both On/Off switch and Home button and wait for your iPhone's Home screen.
After your iPhone is Reset try to do what you were trying and see if it works or else you will have to Backup your iPhone and then Restore your iPhone to fix your issue as Restoring device fixes many of the issues

My ipad mini refuses to join home wifi connection. It is trying to do so continuously but with no success. I tried to reset all settings. Switched wifi off and then back on. Nothing works. The rest of devices are fine with the wifi. What shall I do next?
Maybe reboot your router. Unplug it for about 30 seconds or so and then plug it back in. Reboot your iPad while the router is powering up.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

I have been using iPhone 5 for 2months. There wasn't any problem. But today my phone's speaker suddenly stopped working. Earphone and ear speaker is working normally. I have done reset all settings. But there is no change, still not working.
I think it happened after i plugged into computer by USB cable, and plugged of. Then it stopped working.
Also it had became unresponsive few times before, when i plug into computer.
What should i do now?but can you hear sounds with the earphones on? I guess the only solution to fix this prob is to send my i5 to a nearby Apple and let them check what should be done. anyways can you keep me posted about the status of your iphone 5? :)

my iphone 4s has been reporting invalid sim/sim card failure intermittently for a week. I thought it was a one/two-time thing, so had to manually eject SIM card and put back in. Today, after it happened twice in 12 hours, someone told me to reset - i thought they meant reset all settings, not network settings. while in the middle of resetting, there was an invalid SIM card again. so a few questions - which should i do first? try to manually back up from itunes (not connected to cloud - will be after tonight!), or eject SIM card? don't know if one will jeopardize the other. also, the last time i backed up was 6 days ago - have taken hundreds of pics since then - are those all lost? is there a way to essentially not reset? i thought the reset was okay because it said i'd lose no data or media. Help! thanks much!
