Backup what you want, install iOS 7, restore items you backed up.

Please tell me what should i do to backup only my messages data with itools?
And then restore it again oce i updated to official iOS7

I'd really like to do a fresh install, and wipe everything.

Except for one thing — my messages. I have some sort of strange sentimental attachment to them. I like going back months or even years to view old messages. I'm using PhoneView to save them to my Mac, but I'd like keeping them on my phone, too. I mean, I'm willing to let them go. I just really don't want to.

Is there anyway, after doing a fresh install, to inject the messages back onto my iPhone?

Fresh install with no previous data for every major realease and OTA for minors. Kinda makes me happy like I got a brand new phone though it's never the case . Can't wait for iOS7 to go live.

Save the backed-up text file to Notes.app or Evernote.app maybe?

I convert them to a PDF and read them in the iBook app.

iPhone 5 no. iPad yes.

OK...I gave up on a clean install. I installed iOS7 on my 4S and started reloading things one by one. It was taking forever & iTunes kept wiping out work I had done to set up folders & sync apps. I just reset the phone again & refreshed from my last iCloud backup.

My new plan is to clean up my 4S as much as possible & get it to look exactly like I want my 5S to look. When I pick up a new 5S in a couple weeks, I will just restore from that backup.

Always start fresh to get the "clean" feel & also allows a purge of all the unused crap that accumulates.

I did a restore and fresh install on both my iPad 2 and iPhone 5. On both devices, doing it this way seems to have given me about 0.5 G more storage available. That really surprised me, but I supposed I might be remembering how much available capacity I actually had prior to the install.

question ?

I have a 4s and I want to start clean as well. I just want my pictures and music saved to put back on my phone after I update to ios7. I will load all my apps individually one by one. on my computer, how do I wipe out all the apps in iTunes to start fresh? I right click on them but they don't allow to delete them. ??
