What will happen if i set as new iphone?

my brother's iphone is already registered to the laptop. I planned to attach my iphone to his itunes. it was said that if i could set as new iphone. what would possibly happen?

Each device can only sync with one iTunes library - and that content of the iTunes library will sync.
If you decide to change the iTunes library the phone was orginially synced with, it will erase the 'sync' data and re-sync with the new library.
The phone itself isn't erased.
For example, If I only sync Music, if I change iTunes library, it would erase my Music, and re-sync with the new Music from the new iTunes Library.
Hope that helps

What will happen if I restore/update my iPhone 4 while the unverified find my iPhone iCloud account of my cousin is signed in?

What will happen if I restore/update my iPhone 4 currently on iOS 7.0.4 to the latest version while my cousin's unverified find my iPhone iCloud account is signed in? will it still activate the find my iPhone feature?

you would need to know your cousin's info in order to activate the phone.

What will happen if I pull the new pages out of my applic folder and try to use the 09 pages?

I'm tired of fighting the new (less functional) Pages. I created a 16 page newsletter in the 09Pages version but when I opened it today it had been transferred into the newer version and It had lost a bunch of data I had designed into it. I had gotten instruction from an Apple support person on how to tell it to open in the old version so I quit the new version and opened the old one but it's not working according to her directive. It keeps telling me I have to download a newer version to open it. What would happen if I pull the new version out of the applications folder .... will that disable it temporarily and allow me to use only the old version?

Using Get Info to change all documents to open with Pages 4.3 doesn't work. It will work on individual files, but that could be a lot of files to reset.
If you want to keep Pages 5 there are a couple of methods to make Pages 4.3 the default. Just make sure you've reverted or converted any files to iWork '09 format first. If you don't want to keep Pages 5 you can delete it.
Method 1:
This was first posted by another user in this forum. I can't remember who or when. It has been "fine-tuned" by Peter Breis & I added a note for what works for me.
1. Move any new iWork apps in another clearly labelled folder. I created a new folder in Applications & named it iWork 13.
2. Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy > drag the above folder into the list
3. Move the new iWork folder into the trash (temporarily)
4. Select any Pages file in Finder > Menu > Info (cmd+i) > Open with: > Pages '09 > Change all
5. Retrieve the new iWork folder from the trash (right-click > Put back)
Pages 5 should no longer appear as a default App, and you won't have to keep a copy in a separate drive or dmg.
Important: Make a note of where and how Pages was installed for the next App Store update and temporarily move it back there before putting it away again in the folder concealed from Spotlight.
Method 2:
This is the one I used based on several posts here shortly after Pages 5 was released. I now use method 1 because I find it easier to apply updates when Apple releases them.
1. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "other applications."
2. I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder & renamed the applications Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3.
I have icons for two versions of Pages & Numbers (I rarely use Keynote) in my Dock. Even with two versions of Pages & Numbers running, double-clicking an existing file opens in Pages 4.3 or Numbers 2.3. This should also keep the Mac App Store from nagging you to update.

One itunes account, two ipads (no cloud). What will happen when I sync the new ipdad the first time?

My original iPAD is full of pictures, music, books and apps and was recently synced (iOS7) to my PC.
Just bought a new iPAD (Mini), and not sure what will happen if I sync it to my PC. Will the failry empty Mini wipe out all my content on the PC? or can I just select what from my PC I wat to sync to this new iPAD?

No, syncing an additional iDevice to a computer will have no affect on the original.
Syncing is per device.
Connect the new device, select the content desired to sync and sync.

What will happen when I put my jailbroken iPhone 4 in the computer?

I have a jailbroken iphone 4 still running on 4.3.2 firmware and I would like to get rid of the jailbreak and update it to 5. I understand that it will take my jailbreak off, which I have no problem with, but I'm terrified to plug into the computer. The computer I used for my iphone and itunes got a virus and everything was wiped out. I recently got a new macbook, but none of my info for itunes is on there and I'm scared if I put my iphone into the macbook I'll lose all of contacts! That's what I'm worried about. I don't care about the music or the apps and not so much the pictures. I'm just scared to lose my contacts. So does anyone know what will happen since it's jailbroken and I'm on a completely different computer?

When you jailbreak you void your warranty and give up any right to help on these forums.
Google your problem.
Good luck.

What will happen when I plug my new iPod in?

I got a new iPod video and I had an iPod mini before, if I plug in my new iPod, will it erase my library on my computer? If it does erase my library, how can I transfer my music from my old ipod to my new one?

No, it won't erase your library on your computer if you connect a new iPod. Rather, it will ask you if you want to associate the new iPod with this library. Click 'yes' and it will load your iPod with that music.
CHeers!

I have snow leopard with bootcamp what will happen if I create a new partition and install Lion

query as subject line - I was planning to create a new partition using disk utility and installing lion on that - I am aware Lion will Create a recovery partition in addition - so is it possible to have Snow with it's Bootcamp and Lion with it's recovery on my imac purchased jan 2012?
Subsequent question although I purchased Lion from the mac store can I jump straight to Mountain Lion (if I purchase it) from Snow leopard?

If you plan to create a third partition, then you will lose control over your Boot Camp partition and ability to boot Windows. You cannot have three partitions as you desire.
You can upgrade the Snow Leopard system to Lion or Mountain Lion. You can obtain another HDD and install Lion or Mountain Lion on the external drive.
Yes, you can purchase and download Mountain Lion to upgrade the Snow Leopard system.

What will happen to the photos on my iPhone 5 if I turn off Camera Roll under Manage Storage/This Phone?

I only have 238 mb of Cloud storage left for my phone. When I checked what is using all of my space, I saw that 4.2GB of space is used by Camera Roll. All of the Camera Roll pictures are in iPhoto on my Mac Book Pro and most are also archived on an external drive. Will they disappear from my phone and/or computer if I uncheck the Camera Roll for back ups? What happens if I do that and turn it back on a week from now?

They will not be erased from your phone, they will only not be included in the iCould backup anymore.
If you take many photos and videos with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you might notice that they take up most of your iCloud storage. To check the size of the backup on your device in iOS 8 or later, tap Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage. (If you're using an earlier version of iOS, tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.) Then tap the name of your iOS device. The backup size is under Photo Library.
To reduce the size of your Photo Library backup, save your photos and videos to your computer, then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Photo Library in Backup using the steps above or purchase more storage. If there are any photos that you don't want to keep, you can delete them. Just open photos and select the item you want to delete. Then click the Trash icon and tap Delete Photo.

What will happen if I accidentally overcharged my iphone?

I accidentally fell asleep last night with my iphone on the charger. When I woke up in the morning and took it right off. It is working fine but I was just wondering can overcharging your battery ruin or affect your phone in anyway?

You can't overcharge any iPhone. Charging automatically stops when your battery is full.
You have nothing to worry about.

What will happen if I change the name of my Apple Id?

I have only one Apple Id, which is my email address "[email protected]". My Apple Id and primary email are the same. I now have a new email address, and want to change my Apple Id to my new email address. I've been to the Apple Id support page, and have found out how to change the Apple Id on the Apple Id support webpage. I've been reluctant to go through with the process, because I'm unsure as to what the consequences will be if I change my Apple Id. I have an iPhone and an iPad as well as two Macs and an Apple TV hooked up to my Apple Id. My iMac is the main computer used for storing all files and syncing my iOS devices. In addition my contacts and calendar is in the iCloud. I hope someone with the know-how or experience can help me answer the following questions:
1. iPhone and iPad: Once I change my Apple Id, have I understood it correctly when the next thing I do is that I go to General settings -> Store, and sign out from my "old" Apple Id, and then sign in with the new name for my Apple Id? Will my previous purchases of music, ibooks and apps be connected to the new name of my Apple Id, and will I still be able to get previously purchased apps updated? As for iCloud, what must I do on my iPhone and iPad to make sure that contacts and calendars keep in sync?
2. iCloud: Will changing the name of the Apple Id on the Apple Id support webpage be the only thing I need to do, or are there more steps to follow?
3. iMac and MacBook Pro: Am I right in assuming that all I need to do is sign out from the old named account and then sign in with the new name in AppStore, iTunes, FaceTime and Messages app? Is the Apple Id in use by any other apps or functions?
4. Apple TV: Once my iMac is up and running with the new name of the account, I sign out from the old named account, then sign in with the new name, will streaming music and photos etc. work just as before the name change?
5. I still haven't activated Mail in iCloud. As I understand, once you do that you will be prompted to register a @me.com or @icloud.com email address. Will this address now be possible to use instead of my new email address as the name for my Apple Id?
A lot of questions, still I'd be grateful for some answers.

Hi, everyone,
I just began to use TM to back up my mac. I already have a full backup. Now I want to exclude some folder from backup. I can do this in the option dialog of TM. But I wonder what will happen after I add a new exclude folder. Will TM begin to build a new full backup or just continue to back up incrementally from the older full copy? Thanks.
Time Machine will continue to do incremental backups.
It won't immediately delete previous backups of the items you exclude (but it will, eventually). You can do that yourself, if you want, per #12 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.

What will happen if skip upgrading iPhone 3G & then restore to iPhone 4?

Character limit in the subject line made it hard to get my point across, so I'll expound...
I've got an iPhone 3G running iOS 3.1.3, and also have my reservation in to get the iPhone 4 on Thursday. In light of lots of people talking about performance troubles with iOS 4.0 on the iPhone 3G, I'm thinking I might skip the upgrade.
Normally, when I've gotten new iPhones, I do a full backup right before I go to the Apple Store, and then when I get home I plug the new phone in and let it restore all of my data. But, what will happen when I plug in my iPhone 4 if my 3G backup has everything coming from a 3.1.3 image? Is it going to end up "downgrading" my iPhone 4 to iOS 3.1.3, forcing me to then run an OS upgrade? Is the restore going to outright fail?
Wondering if I don't just need to bite the bullet and upgrade my iPhone 3G to make Thursday that much easier...

It will work, It will use the apps and data from the old backup, but will not change the operating system version.

I never used icloud before so there is no data to back up from. I just spoke to the apple store and they said that if I do plug it in, all the data will be swiped....is there a program I can use to transfer my data from my phone to computer without loosing it all ???
