How To Erase Your Apple Vision Pro Without Losing Any Data?
To erase your Apple Vision Pro without losing any data, you can follow these steps:
1. Back-Up Your Data
Before proceeding with the erasing process, it’s crucial to back up all your important data, including photos, videos, documents, and any other personal information.
- Connect your Apple Vision Pro to a computer using a USB-C cable or use iCloud to back up your data.
- To back up using iCloud, go to Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup and turn on iCloud Backup. Then, tap “Back Up Now.”
- To back up using a computer, connect your Apple Vision Pro to your Mac or PC and open Finder (Mac) or File Explorer (Windows). Select your Apple Vision Pro in the sidebar, then click “Back Up Now.“
2. Open Settings
Open the Settings app on your Apple Vision Pro.
- Swipe down from the top of your Apple Vision Pro’s display to reveal the Control Center.
- Tap the gear icon (Settings) in the upper-right corner of the Control Center.
3. Navigate to General
- In the Settings app, scroll down and tap on “General.”
4. Transfer or Reset Apple Vision Pro
- In the General settings, scroll down and tap on “Transfer or Reset Apple Vision Pro.”
5. Erase All Content and Settings
- Tap on “Erase All Content and Settings.” You may be prompted to enter your device passcode or Apple ID password.
6. Confirm Erasure
- Confirm that you want to erase your device. This action will permanently remove all content and settings from your Apple Vision Pro.
7. Wait for Erasure
- Wait for your device to erase. This process may take a few minutes to complete.
8. Restore from Backup (Optional)
- If you backed up your data before erasing the device, you can choose to restore your data from the backup during the setup process.
- To restore from a backup, follow the on-screen instructions during the setup process.
It’s important to note that performing a factory reset or erasing all content and settings will remove all user-related data from your Apple Vision Pro, including saved images, videos, apps, and other information.
Therefore, it’s crucial to ensure that you have a complete backup of your data before proceeding with the erasure.
If you want to return settings to their defaults without erasing your content, you can do so by following the steps outlined in the “Return Apple Vision Pro settings to their defaults” section of the Apple Vision Pro User Guide.
Always ensure that you have backed up your data before initiating the erasure process to avoid any potential loss of important information.
