Bought a new PC with windows7 now I can't sync my iphone 3GS?

I purchased a new PC with windows7 and now my iphone 3gs will not sync previously purchased apps.  It keeps asking me to authorize this computer and when I enter my password another screen appears saying that this computer is already authorized but when I click OK then the previous screen appears wanting me to authorize this computer and it continues ad infinitum.  I tried reinstalling itunes and I went into the menu and authorized the computer again.  Nothing helps.  What can I do to get this phone to sync with my new computer?

You need to move iTunes Folder(Library)/Media files from your old computer where your Device used to sync with over to the new one.

    You need to use the backup of your PC to transfer all the music files to iTunes on the Mac.
    If you have no backup then you have a difficult task ahead of you as iTunes will only allow you to sync purchased music from the iPhone back into iTunes.   Any music you loaded into iTunes yourself will not transfer from the iPhone to iTunes, this is to prevent stealing of music.  To sync iTunes purchased music from the iPhone to iTunes, connect the iPhone and open iTunes, but when asked do NOT sync the device.  then right click on the iPhone in the iTunes source list and select the 'Transfer Purchases' option, you will also find this commend in the File menu.
    If you are in the US, you can use the new iTunes in the Could feature to redownload your iTunes purchased music / apps / books for free.
    If you want to transfer all the content from your iPhone to you Mac then you will need to use Google to find a 3rd party piece of software that will do this for you.

  • I have just updated my iphone 4 to the new ios 6.1, now I can not sync my music to my phone via my iTunes. Before I done the update I was able to put the songs on my phone via iTunes, can anyone please help as i really need to put the songs on my phone.

    Hi everyone, I need some help big time. I was currently running the IOS 6.0.1 on my iphone 4 and I could sync and transfer music to my phone via my iTunes account. But I updated my phone to the new IOS 6.1 and now I can not transfer music onto my iphone, all it does is tries to sync the songs but it doesn't. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes back onto my laptop yet it still does not work. Can anyone please help me.

    Everything is Sorted!
    The release of iTunes 11.0.2 and iOS 6.1.2 for my iPhone 4, seems to have sorted everything. I can now sync music, films and photos between my MacBook and my phone.
    I was dubious about blindly doing the updates but decided they couldn't really mess up any further functionality so I went for it and it's sorted now.
    Look in to, and take the gamble, it's up to you.

  • Can I sync my iPhone 3GS with iTunes on two separate computers?

    I have a PC desktop with iTunes set up and have already done a sync with my iPhone 3GS (IOS 4.2.1).  I recently acquired a PC laptop (Windows 7).  Is there a way I can sync the content (contacts, calendar, photos - no tunes) with iTunes on the new laptop (while maintaining the iTunes on the desktop)?

    Yes, you can do this, but be sure to uncheck iTunes content syncing on the other computer. Each sync item can be synced with only one computer.

  • I had apower surge and blew out my modem. Bought a new modem / router, and now I can not download PDF files. If I use internet explorer I can download them. Not with Firefox, I'm using Firefox 5.0

    Everything else works fine. I've tried with 3 different modems. I was told it wasn't the modem. Something else is preventing The PDF file from loading.I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled,checked all the settings. I can't find anything wrong. I figure it must be missing a plugin or something'''bold text'''

  • Itunes wiped and now I can't Sync my Iphone help??

    Basically one day I opened my Itunes and all my music, videos, apps, playlists, podcasts and purchases had disappeared. I have most of my songs back but there's some things I can't get back so I'm not willing to sync my phone. I didn't have the manually manage option ticked before it crashed (silly me) so is there any way for me to add my songs and videos now? I'm really desperate to add my new songs as I need them on there for my work... any suggestions?
    also any reason why this may have happened to begin with? Thankyou

    There are third-party apps that allow you to go both ways with an ipod. Hopefully there are some apps that allow you to do the same with the iPhone. Then you could save your tunes. If you bought any from the iTunes store, you'll be able to re-download them.
    Definately back-up. If you're running a Mac and have signed up for .Mac, you'll have 10 gig there you can use as off-site storage. If not, portable HDDs are pretty cheap now and make a great backup.
