New iphone but far from my itunes

I just got a new iphone 4 but my pc which has iTunes on it is in storage 2000 km away. I'm currently still using my old iPhone 3G.
Can I use the new one without connecting to iTunes and once I have my PC synchronize from the old one through iTunes to the new one so that I don't lose any data (contacts, photo)? Or is there any possibility to transfer what I have on my old iPhone to the new one? Would it be an option to download iTunes again to my netbook which I'm using right now? As for the apps + music, can I download them again for free on the new phone? Soory many questions... Thanks in advance

Thanks. I messed up with my husbands iphone because I was told the wrong thing. Now everytime I sync his phone it makes it look just like the other phone I had. Do you know how I can fix taht for his phone? Any settings I can turn off that will prevent all of my apps/contacts, etc from auto populating his phone?

  • Transfer apps to new iphone but no more in itunes

    Hi,
    plan to get new iphone 6 but several old apps in iphone 4s already not found in itunes
    can it be still transfer to new iphone 6. thanks!

    Follow the instructions here or here; using the first set of instructions then requires syncing the second device with the iTunes library containing the content.
    If you mean that they’re not available in the iTunes Store as opposed to an iTunes library, you’ll need to use the first link.

  • Got new iPhone but can't install iTunes

    I purchased a new iPhone 4 yesterday and thought it would be easy to set up but for some reason I can't install iTunes on my laptop. I can down load the iTunes setup.exe but when it comes to install it, it gets about half way through and it comes up with the error 'Could not access network location %APPDATA%/'. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to overcome this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Fifi.

    it gets about half way through and it comes up with the error 'Could not access network location %APPDATA%/'.
    With that particular variety of 1606 (it's a 1606 error message even though the 1606 error message number isn't returned by the iTunes installer), the following Microsoft document is worth a try:

  • I had backed up all my info on iCloud on my new iPhone. I am setting up the new phone- I checked back up by iCloud-  Now it says no back up available.  You can set up as a new iPhone or restore from iTunes back up-What should I do?

    I just got a replaced iphone and I checked back up on icloud, entered apple id and password.  Now it says no backups available.  You can set up as a new iphone or restore from an iTunes back up.  What should I pick because I had checked back up with icloud and all of my info was supposed to be backed up?

    You may need to update the software. For now, set up as a new iPhone and then go to Settings > General > Software Update. Update to the latest iOS (5.1.1), then go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings to go through setup again and see if your backup appears.

  • How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone but not in my itunes?

    How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone

    Hi jpere041,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can delete individual songs, artists, albums, playlists, compilations and composers from your iPhone. To delete an item, swipe across it, then tap Delete.
    This information is on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide
    manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
    Regards,

  • I have a new iphone but I want it to be separate from my old iphone as far as what is on it. If I set it up as a different phone in itunes, can I still load songs and apps from my other phone onto my new phone?

    I am trying to set up my new iphone but I don't want itunes to think it is my old phone. I would like to know how if I can set up my new phone so it is separate from my old one but still be able to load the songs and apps I want onto my new phone....is this possible?

  • HT204269 I can't find MobileSync/Backup/ in the Application Support folder in Library, I'm trying to find my phone back up from a few days ago before I bought my new iPhone, but when I searched on iTunes backup it has been replaced by the back up the day

    I'm trying to find my phone back up from a few days ago before I bought my new iPhone, but when I searched on iTunes backup it has been replaced by the back up the day after that. Now all my data from my old phone is lost including some really important things. Also before that iTunes wouldn't let me sync my iPhone 5s data to my new iPhone 6 Plus, saying that the data is corrupt, that's where all this trouble started. I've been trying to back-up the old phones data so I can access it, but it's been replaced when ever I plug the new phone in, and no the 'sync automatically when connected' is not ticked. Please help me find my back ups.

    Your iCoud account remains in iCloud even if your device is restored.  (In fact, you can't delete an iCloud account from iCloud, you can only choose to stop using it.)  If the device is restored, or it may no longer be signed into your iCloud account but your account will still exist in iCloud.

    If your computer is running an OS X prior to Snow Leopard 10.6,
    the answer (if it is an Intel-based Mac; not old PowerPC model)
    would be to buy the retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD from Apple
    for about $20, and install it. Then update that to 10.6.8 by using
    the installed Snow Leopard online to get Combo Update v1.1 for
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After that is installed & updated, run the
    system's Software Update again, to see what else is available to
    that system.
    Later systems can then be looked into at Mac App Store, once
    the computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    And if your computer is a Power PC (G4/G5, etc) and has no
    Core2Duo kind of CPU -- See "About this Mac" in apple menu
    to disclose the general info about your Mac. Also you can see
    even more by clicking on "More Info" when looking in there...
    If it isn't an Intel-based Mac, it can't run a system past 10.5.8.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    If you made a backup before you restored it you can restore your iPhone from a backup and your game data should be restored.  When you connect your iPhone in iTunes you can right click on it in the sidebar and select restore from backup.

  • Recently got a new iphone but when i tried to sync it with my itunes, all my music appeared with a cloud beside it and doesnt play. Do i have to download each individual track by clicking on each cloud or is there an easier way? I have over 1000 songs!!!!

    Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
    Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
    Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
    Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
    You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
    BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

    Looks like your syncing pics on your computer to your phone.  to remove it when your phone is sync to itunes, uncheck sync in the photos tab.

  • Someone tell me how I can sync my music to my iPhone without it saying on itunes "set up as a new iPhone" or "restore from the backup of: iPod"

    someone tell me how I can sync my music to my iPhone without it saying on itunes "set up as a new iPhone" or "restore from the backup of: iPod"

    You must be trying to sync it with a different computer than the one it used last. No, there is no other way to do this.
    The iPhone may be synced to one and only one computer at any given time. If you choose to sync it to another, you can do that as often as you wish, but its content is erased first.
