Will getting the newest iPhone update delete all of my stuff?
So I have an iPhone 5S and I've been on IOS 7.1.2 and I really need to update it. I would sync it to my computer but it's dead and I've lost the charger. I've asked friends if it deleted their info before and they ve said no but IIm still hesitant.
An update shouldn't erase your personal information, but it is still always a good idea to regularly backup your device; either to iCloud, Dropbox, iTunes, whatever as long as it's a good and reliable update.
If I were you, I would backup my important info first, and then update.
- Will iTunes delete all of my stuff? I wanted to upload about 50 songs and ringtones onto my iPhone 4S just now, and when I click 'sync' a message comes up saying, "The iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?" I want to put my songs and tones on my phone, but I don't want to have my pictures, contacts, apps, etc.erased. Is this what is going to happen? Or will just my music ALREADY on my phone (about 3 songs) be erased?
- Will getting an iPhone update delete all of my stuff if I don't sync it? I have an iPhone 5S and I'm still on IOS 7.1.2 and I really need to update it. I would sync it to be safe but my laptops dead and I've lost the charger. Can I still update it without it deleting all of my stuff?
- Just updated my iPhone 4s to the IOS 8 update and lost all my stuff So I have ICLOUD on my iPhone and on my mac, but when I updated my phone it restored everything back to from 2013 (2 years ago) so now I don't have my recent contacts and apps and music on the phone. My macbook pro has my recent messages and contacts but I just don't know how to transfer it all of it onto my phone. Or is their another way to get it all back from 20 min ago before I updated my phone?!
