Will I lose my iBooks data if I update to IOS 7 over the air

Last time I updated I lost all my iBooks and other date, including pdf files and had to recover from my iMac.
I'm many miles from my computer. Will I lose them again or is it safe to update?

If anyone is interested, I bit the bullet and upgraded and all my books and documents remained.
Hallelujah.

Will I lose my saved data if I update sync account ?

I was about linking a new device when I noticied that I wasn't able to login with my "old" account, It seems that I have to create a new one.
There was a link to how to update to the new Firefox Account [1]
But it says that I have to unlink all my devices.
If I do so, will I lose my data ?
Thanks

As long as the information that you are wanting to keep is on one of the devices you will be fine. It takes things like passwords that you have told Firefox to save and browser history, bookmarks, things like that. Once you make your account and tell it what to sync it will pull all of that information and store it on a "cloud". Any device you then connect to that account will then be updated with all that you told it to share and the reverse is also true. So no information will be destroyed. I hope this helps.

Will I lose my app data when I upgrade to ios 8

I Am considering upgrading to ios 8 for the new apps and features it brings but I am wondering if my apps will work on ios 8 and data will be saved? I know that when I upgraded to ios 7 all my data was still there, and I have heard ios 8 is similar to ios 7 in terms of look not like ios 6 to 7.
p.s. If this is the wrong place to post this question move it to where the right place is.

My iPad 4 runs fine on IOS 8.1.2, you should have no problems. To second what mende1 has already said be sure to make a backup first. The one time I had troubles with a update and needed to restore my iPad the iCloud backup fully restored all my infomation.

Will I lose my unlimited date plan if...

....I simply switch to a 4G LTE device?
I am currently using a family members upgrade in order to switch to the iPhone 5. I am not upgrading on my account because I don't have an upgrade. I am simply switching phones. So will I still lose my unlimited data plan? The policy states that customers upgrading to a 4G LTE device will lose their plan. But again, I'm not actually upgrading...just transferring my number to a a new device.

Hi there KM536986 and community!
Getting the new iPhone 5 is super exciting! This would be considered "providing your own equipment" if you bring the phone from an outside source, such as another account.
This means you will not lose your Unlimited Data plan. Keep in mind that the warranty provided through us directly doesn't transfer, but Apple still provides warranty for the year you have the phone.
Let us know if you have any other questions!
Thanks,

My iPhone will not recognize other iPhones for iMessage after updating to ios 6. Any suggestions?

I updated my phone last week and after the update was finished I noticed I could not initiate an iMessage conversation with other iPhone users who I had always been able to use iMessage with. If I begin the conversation it sends as a regular SMS message and after the other iPhone user responds it allows me to use iMessage. I have toggled the iMessage switch on and off, signed out and back in on my apple I.D., as well as resorting to restoring my phone, still nothing. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

What happens when you try?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

HT1212 Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed?

Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed? I do not think it has been synced with a computer before.

Disabled
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.
Otherwise y will have to restore and thus erase the iPod
You can restore from backup
If not in backup then:
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Maybe from the restored iPod via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Will I lose my iPhone data when syncing to new computer?

Hello --
I've dug through the archives here a little, and saw many issues with syncing an iPhone to a new computer. However, I was never able to find the answer I was looking for to my particular question.
I've had my iPhone for a good number of months now. I had to reformat my computer, and re-install iTunes last week (so it's not really a new computer, but for all intents and purposes, it might as well be.) I have yet to try to sync my iPhone to the computer out of fear I will lose all my data.
I'm not worried about the mp3s or ringtones, those are backed up in my library. However, my contacts, calendar data, photos I've taken -- I've got the sinking feeling that as soon as I hook up this phone to that computer, they will all get removed.
What can I do to ensure that my data won't be lost? Can I backup my phone somehow before syncing it to the computer?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, all.

You're welcome.
So I am safe to continue to transfer music and movies to my phone, without harming my contacts so long as I keep those check boxes in the info tab unchecked? Correct?
Correct. Whatever you select to be synced or transferred from your computer to the iPhone via your iPhone sync preferences is synced or transferred and whatever is not selected is not synced or transferred. Some data is synced and some if just a transfer process from your computer to the iPhone.
Also, what do I do if I want to start syncing contacts now (to prevent this worry of mine in the future)? If I want to create a backup of my contacts right now, is that something I'd need to do manually? I can't just "download" my list of contacts from my phone to my computer, right?
Select the supported application on your computer for syncing contact information and calendar events with your iPhone. If this application or applications are void of any data, enter at least one contact in the supported address book application and one calendar event in the supported calendar application before syncing.
There is no way to backup this data on the iPhone.

Nothing should be lost... However...

If I restore my iphone from back up will I lose my current data?

I backed my phonne up to itunes and I would like to restore that data (since then somethings that were backed up have been deleted) but those are the things I would like to retreive I just don't want to lose things that haven't been backed up if that makes any sense?

Yes, if you restore a backup then you will lose your current data. You can choose one or the other ...
Unless somehow you have the old data you want as well as the new data on your computer or somewhere else (not in your iPhone backup).

If i associate my apple id with another email will i lose my icloud data or i will still be able to access all my stored data with the new linked to my apple id email address?

hi there
if i associate my apple id with another email will i lose my icloud data or i will still be able to access all my stored data with the new linked to my apple id email address?
i mean i am not signing up for a new account, just changing my old id primary email which is my apple id login into account.
in other words, www.icloud.com will recognize that it is still me if i login on the site? will i be able to see there all my stored information?
and if i change my password, does it automatically changes the @icloud.com password which should be the same as my apple id pass?
thanks

After opening the email it shoud of had you enter the Apple ID and password. Using certian web browser's can cause errors. You can adjust securty settings (big pain) or you use another browser. Using Firefox or Safari should do the trick.
Let me know if using Firefox or Safari resolved it.

No. Reinstalling the application does not affect your files.

If I upgrade my factory unlocked iphone to a new firmware, will I lose may apps, data or carrier unlock??

If I upgrade my factory unlocked iphone to a new firmware, will I lose may apps, data or carrier unlock?? I have a 4.3.3 firmware but want 5.0.1

If it's a genuine factory unlocked phone from Apple you should have no problems. I have had two, a 3GS and now a 4S, and they update and handle just like the locked phones. If it has been hacked in any way, though, all bets are off.

If I restore as new will I lose all my data?

My iPad is running slow, at times it freezes. If I do a restore as new, will I lose all my data?
