What iOS updates have required erasing/resyncing? I can't remember ever having to do that.
- kemayo 16y agoI updated my stepmother-in-law's iPod touch 3g from iOS 3.something to iOS 4.2, and it required a full backup and restore.
- jsz0 16y agoIIRC all the 3.x and 4.x releases until 4.3 have. I'm wondering if maybe that was due to having developer builds installed previously? I assumed it was standard practice but you're making me wonder if I'm wrong about this.
- zakovyrya 16y agoI was updating with dev builds since 3.x without erase/resync. Are you sure that you were updating (Alt + Check for Update), not restoring (Alt + Restore) your iOS device with new firmware?
- va_coder 16y agoI updated my iphone from 3 to 4 and all the apps bought through itunes on my phone (not my pc) were wiped out.
