Can I download to my iPhone contents of a cd I have in iTunes without syncing the phone

I switched to a Mac computer from a PC where I already had iTunes. So the iTunes in the Mac computer does not have the same files that are on my iPhone now. I downloaded a cd to the Mac new iTunes and I want to put them into my phone from iTunes. But, if I sync the iPhone to the new Mac iTunes it will erase all the older music, books, etc. from my phone. Can I download the cd contents to my iPhone without erasing the older music and books, etc?

I downloaded the audiobook to my laptop, but now want it to be on my iphone. How do I download it to my iphone?

    Good Afternoon irish357,
    I know the importance of saving and updating your contacts. What type of phone do you have? If you are using Backup Assistant, you have the ability to sync the contacts between your laptop and phone. You will also be able to see if all your contacts are stored on the online portion of the application versus the phone itself. The contacts should be the same for both online and the phone.
    I have attached a link below for your reference.

    I hope this information is helpful in resolving your concerns.

  • I had to restore my iPhone and now when I cannot use my iTunes stored on the phone for an alarm or ringtone.

    I had to restore my iPhone and now  I cannot use my iTunes stored on the phone for an alarm or ringtone.

    yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
    and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
    trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
    no worries

  • How can I restore the contacts on my iPhone 4s (from iTunes) without 'syncing' my phone?

    I just got a new iPhone 4s about a month ago - backed everything up to iTunes before transferring onto my new phone, which worked great. However, my mail was not working correctly (gmail), and after trying to set it up multiple times, found out about the whole issue of gmail not supporting 'push' with the iphone anymore... Got that issue figured out, but part of trying to set up my gmail account found me syncing my contacts with my gmail contacts.
    I have not kept gmail contacts up to date for a few years, and when my phone synced with google contacts, it basically wiped out all of my current contacts and replaced with outdated contacts from google. I know that my contacts should all be saved to iTunes, but I'm afraid to sync and have the same thing happen again. I don't want to restore my phone from iTunes if I don't have to, because I don't want to lose other things outside of my contacts that I've updated since the last time I backed up my phone.
    Is there a way to restore just my contacts? I've got a lot of contact info/numbers over the years that would be very difficult to replace, and I don't fully understand the 'sync' process... Thanks for any help!

    Syncing contacts is bi-directional. If you elect to sync contacts...again, selected on the Info pane in iTunes...whatever contacts you have in whatever supported application on your computer will be merged with what you have on your phone. If whatever application, on your computer, is empty, then all contacts on your phone will be erased. Never sync to an empty application.
    Contacts are included in the iPhone backup, but the first thing done when you perform a sync is an iPhone backup. This means that whatever contacts are currently in your iPhone backup will be overwritten with whatever is currently on your phone.
    So, if all you want are whatever contacts are currently in your iPhone backup, you need to re-read my initial post.

  • HT1386 how can i get all my songs that are on my ipod onto my iTunes without losing the ones that weren't purchased on iTunes?

    I got a new laptop and I wanted to put my songs that are on my ipod onto my iTunes without losing the songs that weren't purchased. I have no way of getting onto my old laptop to get the songs if I lose them so I was wondering if there was any other way.

  • Can I use iphone 5 as a camera and ipod without activating the phone service

    Can I buy a new Iphone 5 and use as a camera and Ipod, wtihout activating the phone?

    Yes, you can. There still needs to be a SIM card in the phone if the phone hasn't been set up yet; the SIM does not have to be active.

  • I have updated my iPhone 3s to the latest software. I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available. Help!

    I have updated my iPhone 3Gs to the latest software in an attempt to iron out a problem with a new telephone network provider (Tmobile). I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download from iTunes as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available to re-download although it all shows up on my Mac. The music and app content cannot be restored when I try to restore the phone from the back up I madeon my Mac. Help!

    Working on that now.  I'm just getting frustrated that everytime I run updates for the phone I end up with tech problems that I have to spend time solving as opposed to updates that actually improve my usage.  Now I will once again get to spend hours reloading my phone all for updates that didn't affect my usage in the first place.

  • HT1386 The laptop I originally synch'd my iphone 4s with is broken and cannot retrieve any files. How can I sync the phone with a new laptop without losing all my downloaded music and apps already installed on my iphone?

    If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.

  • Can I download  video from iPhone 4s to iPod touch 2

    can I download  video from iPhone 4s to iPod touch 2?

    This what I've tried so far:
    Downloaded photos from the iPhone to the computer.  Videos and photos transferred without problem.
    Plugged in the iPod Touch (2) and all photos synced just fine, but no video appeared. 
    While the iPod was connected I looked In the menu bar of iPhoto, when I chose movies, none were listed.
    I cannot find an item listed in the settings menues that seem relevant.
    I have emailed the movies successfully from the iPhone 4s.

    How can I download Find My iPhone on iPhone 4 if it was never installed before? It requires iOS 8. I have read that it will download if a previous version is already installed on device, but it was never installed on mine.

    Niel,
    I'm feeling pretty foolish right now. I went into Settings, iCloud and found that Find My iPhone is there and enabled.
    Thank you anyway for your reply.
