ALL MY MUSIC IS GONE!!!!!
on: September 26, 2013, 04:19:32 PM
Alright so this is how it is...

I updated my ipad to ios7 right?

I had like 915 songs on there, so I'm like, 'alright I should probably back this up'.

I back it up...

I update it to ios7.

i hit restore from back up.

THERE'S NOTHING ON THERE!!!

I had freaking 915 songs and 40G's of movies on there WHAT THE HECK?!?!!?

I hate you apple.

So now I gotta torrent ALL of my movies again, and youtube convert like 400 songs!!!  Cause I have my purchased items saved on like two accounts...

I AM SOOOOOO SALTY!!!

Sorry... This is why you should always back up everything at least on two alternating devices...and never trust only one back up program...

Does Apple not back your stuff up if it's not approved by them?  I could see them doing something like that.  "This looks pirated, so... we'll skip it."

It makes me sad that so many people actually believed that. A few at my highschool...
Just here to lurk and cringe at my old posts now.

A moment of silence for all of those Lady Gaga songs lost in the field.

That's my experience. Or at least it won't let you use it on "new" devices.

There are so many cheap pen drives out there that I wonder why anyone relies on the "cloud" system.
