Will I lose songs on iPhone if i update?

[kelly g]

Since the last time I synced my iPhone with iTunes, my portable hard drive failed and I lost all my music. However, I want to install the 2.1 software update. I deselected the automatic sync option in iTunes.

Does anyone know if the songs on my phone will disappear with connecting my phone and running the update? I use the iPhone as my primary mp3 player so it would be a significant loss for me.


Thanks.

Yes. You will lose anything that is on your ipod.

You need to remove the songs first using senuti (http://www.fadingred.org/senuti/).

When you do transfer them back and import them back into itunes, it would be a good idea to back up your music. best of luck.:apple:
