No it won't, but if there are any changes to be made, like in ios 4, you could put newsstand in a folder, and when you update it, newsstand just pops out. But is will not cause you to lose any data.

It doesn't affect it at all. All your songs and programs will still be there. Some of them may need to be updated to versions that are compatible with IOS 5.

iOS 7 will be absolutely free to all devices you can update. The devices you are able to update are all iPads except the original, the 5th generation iPod Touch, the iPhone 4, 4S, and 5, 5C, 5S, and whatever new iOS devices Apple releases on 10/22/13. Be careful, it will charge your mobile data if you update without Wi-Fi or wired. When I upgraded to it, it consumed more than 1 GB of mobile data.

Is it possible to update an iPhones IOS without losing jailbreak data I know that it will lose the jailbreak but could I re-jailbreak it and still have all or at least most of my Cydia applications?

If you update your iPhone/iPod, you will remove the jailbreak, then you would have to wait until the jailbreaking websites invent a jailbreak for the new ios, but why update if you jailbroke it?

You do not get iOS 4.0.2 when you update an iPod to iOS 4.1. iOS 4.0.2 is an earlier version and precedes iOS 4.1. The next version after iOS 4.1 will be iOS 4.2.

Why do you need to restore your iOS device to get iOS 5?

As many users do not realize it, you restore your phone and wipe it out before installing every update. Before updating, your phone would automatically make a backup of it's data and put that data back on the phone afterward. Sometimes there are cases when updating to iOS 5 that you lose all of your apps, but luckily redownloading them off the App Store again will restore them with all of their data.


How do you upgrade your ipodtouch to iOS 6 without it deleting all your photos?

Although you will probably have to put your music and videos back on your iOS device, you should not lose any photos. If you do, your iPod automatically makes a backup copy of your data before installing a big update. This backup will also contain contacts, notes, reminders, calendars, and app data, so if you see your apps are missing when you update, you can just redownload them from the App Store and they should have all off their data.


How do you update to ios 6?

If you are running iOS 5, you can update to iOS 6.1.3 (or 6.1.4 on iPhone 5) by going into Setting>General>Software Update. If you are running iOS 3 or 4, you can update to the latest software by plugging your iDevice into your iTunes-authorized computer and wait for your device to be recognized. Once this is done, there should be a pop-up to download and update to the new iOS. Everything should be self explanatory by then.


How To Download iOS 6 Final and official Full Version?

iOS 6 came out of beta September 21, 2012 with the launch of the iPhone 5. You can update to the latest iOS 6.1.3 (6.1.4 with the iPhone 5) by going into Settings>General>Software Update or plugging your device into an iTunes authorized computer if you are running anything older than iOS 5. If you are not fond of the iOS 7 update, then you must update to iOS 6 before this fall because after that, Apple forces you to only update to the latest software version or not at all. But you don't have to worry about this is you have a 4th gen iPod Touch or iPhone 3GS which can't get iOS 7.
