Does the new update for ipod touch ( ios 6.1.6 ) restore your device?

There was a software update that came out a few days ago. A while back I updated my software ( a few month back ) and it restored my ipod, I had 89 apps ( 10 i paid for ) just a few pics and 127 songs - some i paid for.

So I had to pay for it allllllll again. I don't want to make the same mistake twice.

Could Someone Give Me Any Advice?

I know you can back it up to itunes or icloud and that.... but it still restores it!


If this helps:

Ipod 4gen 8GB ( Don't ask how i had 89 apps..... i looked on my settings 😝 )

I'm not sure if some Ipod's restore and some not but Just thought I'd give you the info above.


I don't want anything to do with restoring it!!

Infrequently a glitch occurs and restoring the iPod is required.

I do not understand why you had top pay again previous for iTunes purchases

You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Some countries limit what yo can redownload without having to pay again.


Transfer iTunes purchases to you computer by:

iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

Make a backup of your iPod too

iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Note that the iTunes backup does not include any synced media like apps and music.

The iCloud backup only includes iTunes purchases.
