Help!
iPad, iOS 5.0.1
If you're talking about holding the Home and Power buttons until the iPad restarts, you shouldn't lose anything. That being said, it's not a given. If the iOS has become corrupted, there is a possibilty your could lose data. Hard to say for sure.

You lose everything. But if you have synced and have a current backup, then you can restore the backup after the reset.
You lose everything.
Incorrect. A reset doesn't 'lose' anything. A restore does.
Nothing. Follow these instructions: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the page above isn't found, try again. The first try seems to give a file not found message.
To be technically correct, there is no "Hard Reset", there's only a Reset as such... pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
If you mean Restore, then a Restore will wipe your iPad but you can install your backup afterwards.
If you are talking about the reset as described by JayCampbell38, the chances of losing anything are miniscule but obviously nothing is 100% foolproof. That reset is basically like rebooting your computer -
Have you ever lost anything on your computer when you rebooted? I know that I never have
Wow thanks for all the help. Here is another question to this: The reason i ask this is my iPad first version runs slow and when surfing cuts me off and returns me to the home screen with no warning and if reading an article in a newspaper or si.com for example and I hit back it does not bring me back to where I started but to a few days ago or farther to older versions of that paper or website that I was reading. If you anyone can help with this that would be great also.
There are lots of discussions about issues with Safari, especially on the iPad1 with iOS5. I suggest restoring as new, i.e. without your backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Lol he is lv.10
If I do a hard reset what all could I lose?
