Small question before upgrading to 4.2 beta

FassoL · Sep 29, 2010, 12:55 PM

Hello everyone,
I'm very thrilled about the new beta. My question is if I upgraded my iPad using (alt + update), would the iPad keeps all my current data? Settings, pages documents, etc ... ?

I now it look like a stupid question but I would like to make sure that my data are safe.

Thank you all guys.

Just back up your iPad first, just to be safe.

But anyhow, yes. I upgraded earlier today and all my settings and apps were still there when it booted up again.
