I'd like to get a new iPod touch, I'd also like to not have to re-input all my contacts and notes (don't mind clearing out the apps) but I want to make sure of two things before I go in and take advantage of the 10% discount at the Apple Store.
-
Can I backup my data on an as updated as possible 2nd gen iPod and restore it onto a shiny new 4th gen iPod?
-
Can I make sure (within reason) that my data is cleared off the iPod when I turn it in to the Apple store?
Best Answer
Erase all Content and Settings
option that you can use to wipe the iPod, including a quote from Apple Support. More specific details for all Apple iDevices can be found on this Apple page.
