Will i lose all my apps if i upgrade my iOS on my ipad?

pls help

A backup should be done by iTunes as part of the update process, and your apps should remain installed (with their content/settings) after the update. I've only ever had an issue with one update which removed half of my apps, but I just re-installed them - you can always re-download apps for free if they do get removed, but that shouldn't happen (re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)

    Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

    I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above.  That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
    IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
    BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

    Best way to move to the new account

    No, all content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, it can't be transferred to another account

  • My laptop has broken. How do I now access iTunes and will I lose all my apps?

    My laptop is broken. How do I now access iTunes ? Will I lose all my apps and music? Any help needed , thanks in advance.

    If your hard drive is busted, then yes. If your hard drive still works, then no. Unless every single media item in your collection is on your iPhone. But even then there is no official way to get into the system files. IIRC you can transfer the content on your iPhone to another computer (say if you got a new computer) when plugged in for the first time. Not too sure of this though.

  • I did a restore settings for my iTouch which wiped out the apps.  What happens now when I sync my iPad?  Will I lose all my apps on it?

  • HT4972 I want to upgrade iOS, from 4.3.3. Will I lose all my apps?

    In order to upgrade the version I understand that I need to sync my iPad then update via iTunes. Will I lose all my apps or are these saved? What about apps I've bought?
    Thanks!

    If you have never synced the iPad to the computer that are intending to do the update by then this page may be of use : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    In terms of the actual update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11) - that should copy all of your apps (purchases or free) and other iTunes purchases over (music, films etc). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    An iPad 1 will update to iOS 5.1.1, and an iPad 2 and 3 to iOS 6.0.1 - they are the only versions that are 'signed' by Apple for them.

  • If I upgrade to ios 5.1.1 on my iPhone, will I lose all my apps or have to redownload them?, If I upgrade to ios 5.1.1 on my iPhone, will I lose all my apps or have to redownload them?

    If I upgrade to ios 5.1.1 on my iPhone, will I lose all my apps or have to redownload them?
    Or how can I prevent this?

    Now everything should remain the same as it was prior to the update.
    But a good practice is to always do a backup prior to any update - "Just in case"

  • I need to get an account separate from my soon to be ex. Will I lose all my apps on my iPads and I phone?

    My husband and I are on the same iTunes account but now that we are separating he wants me to get my own but I am afraid I will lose all my apps and music that I currently have on my ipad2 , my daughters iPad, and my iPhone? Any info or suggestions would be great!

    You wont lose them...they'll still be on your device...you just wont be able to update or redownload them...this is why...people shouldnt share accounts.

  • If I put a different Apple ID in my iPhone will I lose all the apps I have already purchased through another Apple ID on the iPhone?

    My daughter and I share an apple account. She has an iPhone (she's had it about a month) & I have an iPad. All of her app downloads and iMessages are showing up on mine. If I set her up her own Apple ID is there a way that she won't lose all of the things she already downloaded? She's taking over my iPad with downloads & pics.

    The Apple ID needs to be a verified email address. Once you have an email address, that can be verified, go here & create the ID:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId
    Then on her phone, turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
    This will have no affect on the ID you both share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

  • HT2731 if i set up a new apple id, will i lose all my previous downloads and purchases

    My daughter has been using my email as her apple id and we want her to get her own.  If she creates
    a new apple id, will she lose all her apps and music she has purchased?

    As the others stated purchases are inexorably linked to the Apple ID used to purchase them.
    An alternative solution is to create a new email address and Apple ID for yourself. The amount you have invested in purchases for your daughter vs. yourself will factor in this decision.
    If she doesn't want to use your email address, Apple IDs can be changed - not transferred, but changed to an email address not already associated with another Apple ID.
    One caveat to keep in mind is the age requirement for Apple IDs; thirteen years of age is the minimum. The only way for someone younger than that to legitimately have an Apple ID is for someone older to create one on her behalf.
