Will I lose my data if I restore my iPad

If you restore the iPad to your last backup then you will lose any content you've added or changes that you've made since you took that backup i.e. it will put back to how it was at the time of that backup

    Just a quick question, even though i've backed up my ipod would I lose game data (i.e highscores and levels) if I was to restore it to factory settings?... obviously I mean once i've restored the backup. Cheers

    As long as you back up before you restore you are fine.

  • HT4718 Will I lose my data if I restore OS X mountain lion?

    my iMac will not start and various post suggest restoring OS X mountain lion. What will happen to my date?

    There is a way to back up your system via the OS X Utilities from the Recovery HD.
    Boot into the Recovery HD using either Recovery Mode or Internet Recovery.
    At the OS X Utilities Menu, select Disk Utility.
    Plug in a USB external drive. Make sure you have a partition larger than your Macintosh HD and the drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with the GUID partition table.
    Select your Macintosh HD then click the Restore tab.
    Select your Macintosh HD as the Source and the USB external drive as the Destination. Click the Restore button. This will block copy your Macintosh HD over to the USB drive. It's basically a clone.
    Once the above steps are done you can format your Macintosh HD and Reinstall OS X.

  • If I restore my iPad will I lose my data plan?

    I am planning to back up my iPad and restore it to lend to a friend for a week. I'm gonna buy a data plan for him, but when I restore from the backup will I lose my data plan

    If you restore your iPad, everything will be deleted but your data plan won't be modified. You will keep it because it has nothing to do with the iPad

  • HT1212 If I never synced to itunes and I restore the device. Will I lose unstored data? How can I check to see the last time my phone was backed up if I forgot the passcode to my phone?

    If I never synced to itunes and I restore the device. Will I lose unstored data? How can I check to see the last time my phone was backed up if I forgot the passcode to my phone?

    If you can't remember your passcode, you'll need to restore your phone.  If you never synched to iTunes, all data on your phone will be erased.  No way around this.

  • If I update my 4th gen ipod to the iOS 5, will I lose the data on my apps?

    If I update my 4th gen ipod to the iOS 5, will I lose the data on my apps?

    If everthing goes as planned, your app date wil be restored to the iPod. To help guard againste a possible mishap. sync (iTunes also creates a backup) the iPod before the udate and caopy the backup file to a save location in case something happens.  The backup is located here:
    Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
    The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Will i lose my data after re-installing my iphone ?

    Last night i updated my iphone and i was unaware that its not a Factory Unlock cellphone. Now my iphone got locked. Will i lose my data if i re-install ios or can i restore my data after re-installing ? Please help as i dont wana lose my data. 2nd i dont have backup of my data too

    If there was a backup created prior to doing the update this will be available to you after the update .
    If you did not backup the data to itunes, there may have been a back up created in icloud.
    Without a created back up from either icloud or itunes your data will be lost.

  • HT201412 will i lose apps, photographs on a restore?

    did an ios 6 update and there were problems. Now itunes asking to do a restore. will i lose apps, photographs on a restore?

    Hi there,
    Wondering if you might know?  I don't have enough space to update the new software on iPad.  So my facetime isn't working anymore, this is prob why. Seems I have to delete like all the games/apps we have to do so.  Will I lose the progress data/levels in the games? But how do I back up the games data?
    Please help.  Scared to delete them to update and then not have the space to restore them and if I get them again will the levels/progress be gone?
    Thanks Rachel

  • HT1766 I need to restore my iphone 4.  Will I lose my pictures if I restore from backup?

    I need to restore my iphone 4.  Will I lose my pictures if I restore from backup?

    Possible if there is a problem with your iPhone's backup in regards to this data with no way to know this in advance.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.

  • HT1296 was using my daughters itunes account and now have my own. If I "erase and sync" will I lose my data from my purchased games? I have transferred apps and backed up to my computer.

    was using my daughters itunes account and now have my own. If I "erase and sync" will I lose my data from my purchased games? I have transferred apps and backed up to my computer.

    One computer iTunes can support multiple Apple IDs.  One iPod can also support multiple IDs.  Don't do an "erase and sync."  Simply add your Apple ID to the computer's iTunes and to the iPod.  The only nuisance is app updating, especially if you do the updates from the computer, rather than from the iPod.

  • HT1212 Using the "if you have never synched with itunes" instructions, will I lose all data on the phone? That is the most important information, how to recover the data. The phone is fungible.

    Using the "if you have never synched with itunes" instructions, will I lose all data on the phone? That is the most important information, how to recover the data. The phone is fungible.

    Thanks @ KiltedTim, but losing "only" any data is really not acceptable and, in this case, the phone had not been backed up, but thanks for taking the time. Also, yes, fungible means what I think it means. An iphone is a completely substitutible commodity, unlike my data, so instructions that inform me as to how to fix a phone I could replace for a small sum of money while failing to address the more important issue of the data are almost useless - they potentially save me the $99 it would cost me to replace the phone if I were so inclined to trust another apple product. Not worth the hour it took to find them or the 35 minutes on the phone to confirm my suspicions about the data.

  • I changed my Apple ID but my iCloud didn't change to the new ID. If I delete the old iCloud will I lose all data on my iPod ?

    I changed my Apple ID but my iCloud didn't change to the new ID. If I delete the old iCloud will I lose all data on my iPod ?

    - Go to Settings>iCloud. Scroll to to bottom of the screen and tap the delete button. The effect all the services listed in Settings>iCloud like Notes, Contact and Calendar.
    - You may be offered the option to retain that data on the iPod. Otherwise it gets deleted.
    It does not effect synced media like apps and music purchased with the account..
    Note that purchases made with an Apple ID are locked to the ID that purchased them. To update apps you have to sing into the account that purchased them

  • Will i lose any data on my iphone if i didnt update it

    will i lose any data on my iphone if i didnt update it

    Until you do update, Apple will hire a high school girls clique to follow you around, make fun of you & post disparaging comments on Facebook .

  • ICloud Storage upgrade.  Purchased, but keep getting emails.  Will I lose my data?

    According to the iCloud management page in System Preferences (on my mac) and the Settings page (on my iPhone) I have purchased a 20 gig storage plan for iCloud.   But I keep getting emails claiming my free 20 gig storage plan will be downgraded on 9/30/13. How can I be sure I will not lose my data?

    Thanks, Roger.  Do you think this is true, even though I see this on my phone and get this email?  It seems strange (and very bad protocol) that apple would get this specific about the amount of storage I am using, but not monitor whether or not I had purchsed an upgrade.  I've been getting these emails daily for the last week.
