What will happen to iPod 5G's info when I do a fresh Windows install?

Title basically says it all. I've been using my iPod Video as a storage device as well as for music, and I'm going to do a clean install of Windows XP in the near future-my CD/DVD drive has somehow failed to respond (code 41), so reinstalling Windows to factory settings should do the trick. Only problem I can foresee is what will happen to all the data on my iPod when I reinstall the CD software for iTunes and my iPod drivers-will all the data on my iPod disappear when I reconnect it to my laptop for the first time?
Just wondering if anyone's done this before, as I'll assume it's a typical topic.

When the iPod is connected to the PC after reinstalling Windows, a message will appear asking you if you want to change the computer the iPod is associated with will appear if iTunes is installed; pressing Erase & Sync on this dialog box will delete all content on the iPod that was synced from iTunes. Content copied to the iPod outside of iTunes will not be erased by iTunes unless you explicitly restore the iPod.

What will happen if ipod touch previous generation cannot be upgrade anymore?

What will happen if ipod touch previous generation cannot be upgrade anymore?

It will continue to operate, play music and so on. It just will not be able to update apps that rely on later iOS versions.

HT5628 What happens to all of my files and what will happen to my iwork apps if I decide to switch to windows

I have recently wanted to switch to the windows platform so I could get more games from steam. I was wondering what happens to all of my files and what will happen to Mac apps like iwork. Will I have to purchase the microsoft version?

Nothing happens to your files and "Mac apps". You install Windows on a new partition separate from OSx. Read the Boot Camp manuals. http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

What will happen to MobileMe mailboxes in MacMail when MobileMe goes away this year?

I use the Mac mail application to handle and store years of messages for business and home use. Currently, I store the bulk of my e-mail archives, which I use regularly, on my Mac, rather than on MobileMe (which is what appears in the Mail application in the Mailbox List).
I love the ease of Time Machine, but recently had a serious outage after a series of power surges, which destroyed thousands of dollars of electronics in my home. My computer equipment had surge protection and came through fine, but I still worry about the fragility of storing data long-term in the same location as my work and home computers. I'm increasingly looking for cloud-based solutions for secure long-term storage and back-up. I've experimented with Drop Box and have migrated to iCloud, which works so much better than MobileMe that it's stunning.
Specifically, regarding the Apple Mail app, I split my storage of e-mail archives between mailboxes "On My Mac" and in "MobileMe." Can I move the Mac-based archives to "MobileMe," or will those mailboxes go away with the final transition to iCloud and the disappearance of MobileMe? And if those are to continue as a feature iCloud, can I be sure those archives (including file attachments) will be available to me in the future without worry about corruption or other data loss?
Thanks.

My issue is not moving folders from .mac to iCloud. The issue is that in the Mail app, my Folder List shows messages can be stored either "On My Mac," i.e. stored locally on my hard drive, or on "MobileMe," which is in the cloud. However, since I have migrated to iCloud, why does the Mail app continue to show my cloud-based e-mail storage under "MobileMe."
This raises the obvious question as to whether these archived folders labeled "MobileMe" will disappear when MobileMe fully shuts down this year. Does anyone have documentation addressing this question. If the folders listed under "MobileMe" are indeed in iCloud, why aren't they now labeled "iCloud," instead of "MobileMe"?
I don't believe this is an obvious question. For example, my understanding is that any files I have currently stored in my iDisk space on MobileMe will be lost at the shut-down of MobileMe because the iDisk app will not be supported in iCloud. At present, those files and my iDisk folders are accessible to me, even though I've migrated to iCloud and can no longer sign into other legacy MobileMe services, such as http://me.com/mail.
To be clear, I'm not looking for opinions or guesses about what might happen when MobileMe shuts down. I'm looking for Apple documentation on what services and legacy data stored in the cloud through MobileMe will be available in iCloud post-shut-down and what steps need to be taken in advance to ensure that I don't lose data.
Thanks.

What will happen to the history and snapshots when images are process changed?

What affect will it have, especially on items where the sliders have changed?

If you click on a previous history or snapshot, you'll revert back to the process version in use at the time.

Looking to purchase creative cloud as a student. What will happen to the Creative Suite 6 Design Standard that i already have installed?

Hi, purchased 'Creative suite 6 Design Standard' with my macbook. Now looking to get After Effects but it is cheaper to buy the whole Creative Cloud in a bundle buying as a student than it is to buy After Effects on its own.
Will I encounter any problems with having two versions of illustrator, photoshop and indesign?

What will happen with my Boot Camp partition if I'll do a celan install of Mac OS X Lion?

I'm planing to do a clean install of Lion (form USB drive). Will my Boot Camp partition (where I have Windows 7 installed) stay untouched?

You can clone the Bootcamp partition from within OS X using the free WinClone.

You can also clone your Snow Leopard to another drive (needs a whole one to itself/partition) using the free Carbon Copy Cloner.

What will happen with my installed softwares?

Hi I am using MacBook Pro with C2D and having latest version of SL. But I have installed lots of software useful for my business including virtual machine and I am using Windows 7 ultimate on it. So I am wondering what will happen if I upgrade this to Lion? Do I need to install everything again or it will be as it is like on my snow leopard?

I don't know about VMware, but I can tell you that when I opened Windows XP the first time in Parallels after upgrading to Lion, I had to re-setup the virtual machine. Other than this, no problems. CS3 and older WILL NOT run in Lion, but CS4 and newer run without problems.
Go to About this Mac > applications, and here you can see which of your applications are PowerPC, thus not compatible with Lion.
Cheers

MY PC WAS REFORMATTED. WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN I CONNECT MY IPOD TO MY PC NOW

Hi everyone!
My pc was recently formatted, and now I want to add new songs to my iPod. What will happen to the songs in my iPod when i connect it to the newly formatted PC? (not all songs in my iPod are in my PC anymore).
Is there a way I can get all my songs from my iPod to my PC? If there is a way, would the songs remain organized from the iPod to the PC? Coz I am very organized with my iTunes and iPod, every artist, genre, album title is fixed.
Would the PC automatically update my iPod? I know there is a setting in iTunes where I could choose if iTunes updates my iPod automatically or manually, but I can't seem to find it. I'm afraid to connect my iPod now to my PC because this might erase and foul up my songs in my iPod.
Thanks and please help.
Chad

If your iPod is set to update automatically you just need to take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. If it is set to automatically update you will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press *No*. Pressing "Yes" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it: Managing Your Songs Manually
You can also use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys (on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘) keys). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. Then go to Edit>Preferences>iPod and check the "Manually manage songs and playlists" box.
You can't sync or drag your music back directly from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward.
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
iGadget Windows Only
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
PodPlayer Windows Only
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for quite a small outlay.

How the data is stored in Info cube...in the back end what will happen???

Hi Experts,
How the data is stored in Info cube and DSO...in the back end what will happen???
I mean Cube contain Fact table and Dimension tables How the data will store and what will happen in the backend???
Regards,
Swetha.

Hi,
Please check :
How is data stored in DSO and Infocube
InfoCubes are made up of a number of InfoObjects. All InfoObjects (characteristics and key figures) are available independent of the InfoCube. Characteristics refer to master data with their attributes and text descriptions.
An InfoCube consists of several InfoObjects and is structured according to the star schema. This means there is a (large) fact table that contains the key figures for the InfoCube, as well as several (smaller) dimension tables which surround it. The characteristics of the InfoCube are stored in these dimensions.
An InfoCube fact table only contains key figures, in contrast to a DataStore object, whose data part can also contain characteristics. The characteristics of an InfoCube are stored in its dimensions.
The dimensions and the fact table are linked to one another using abstract identification numbers (dimension IDs) which are contained in the key part of the particular database table. As a result, the key figures of the InfoCube relate to the characteristics of the dimension. The characteristics determine the granularity (the degree of detail) at which the key figures are stored in the InfoCube.
Characteristics that logically belong together (for example, district and area belong to the regional dimension) are grouped together in a dimension. By adhering to this design criterion, dimensions are to a large extent independent of each other, and dimension tables remain small with regards to data volume. This is beneficial in terms of performance. This InfoCube structure is optimized for data analysis.
The fact table and dimension tables are both relational database tables.
Characteristics refer to the master data with their attributes and text descriptions. All InfoObjects (characteristics with their master data as well as key figures) are available for all InfoCubes, unlike dimensions, which represent the specific organizational form of characteristics in one InfoCube.

What will happen if I return refurbished iPod?

I made a stupid mistake when I recently ordered a refurbished iPod Nano for my girlfriend for Christmas.
I just didn't realize that the refurbished unit was a 1st generation iPod; I thought I was buying her a 2nd generation unit.
So, what will happen if I return the iPod? The box has been opened and she has used it for a couple of days. Will there be a restocking fee or anything of that sort?

Thanks for the reply and link.
Looks like I might be in trouble since I threw the box away.
I wonder if their "All products must be packed in the original, unmarked packaging" applies to refurbished products that just come in a plain brown box?

What will happen to the iPod touch 4th gen when the 6th gen comes out?

Hi I was just wondering what will happen to my ipod touch 4th gen (app updates, processing speed, price, etc.) when the 6th generation ipod comes out?
Thanks

No body knows about the next gen of any Apple products, other than they always advance. There are still many much older products in successful use so that should not be a problem. My iPad original cannot use iOS 6.1.3 but it still does what I want and works great.
If you have the 4th gen, use it aa long as it meets your needs. If it doesn't look at the options for a new one at that time.
