can i use my iphone 3 in new zealand with a nz sim card in it without it needing to be unlocked?
That depends... its is ALREADY unlocked? If so, then you should be fine. If the phone is carrier locked, then no, obviously you can't use it with a SIM from another carrier without getting it unlocked first.

I need to use another laptop to sync my music, I've already synced my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G with my laptop and had to delete EVERYTHING to do so! I refuse to do this again, I was NEVER able to restore my phone back to it's original state since then.
How can I sync up my idevices to ANY computer w/ iTunes without having to completely bomb my iphone and ipod? And if I can't do that, how can I back up all my music and apps? I've already tried "back up device" and that did absolutely NOTHING to help my predicament.
Long story short, I had my devices synced to my desktop, my desktop broke, so I bought a laptop, synced my devices to my laptop after erasing all my data, and my laptop was destroyed during hurricane sandy, so now I have to use my parents/friends computers to sync new music and videos. BUT CAN'T BECAUSE MY DEVICES WERE ALREADY SYNCED TO MY LAPTOP AND DESKTOP!
If I can get ANY help, I would greatly appreciate it.Follow the steps given here...

HELPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
You cannot. Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content. -

How can I sync my Iphone to a new computer without clearing all the data?
When I first started using my iPhone, I had it paired with a MacBook which has subsequently crashed. While most of the information was backed up, not all of it was and iTunes now tells me I must completely erase all of my data. I would prefer not to loose all of my contacts, apps, and other information. I know the phone will not transfer files to my computer, I'm not asking how to do that nor do I care to. I just want to sync it with my new MacBook Pro.
You cannot sync without erasing.
Transfer your itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Then enter one unique contact and calendar entry in the new computer. When you first sync you should get the option to merge the data.
Make sure you backup everything going forward. It makes all of this much easier. -
I tried updating my itunes and it stopped working so I restored my pc to before the update but now I can't sync my iphone to it. It keeps saying I need to sync but it wont and everytime I try clicking on something the side bar it shuts down.
Cancel that... I uninstalled Quicktime and it started working. Will cross the reinstalling of quicktime down the track I suppose... thanks again

I can't sync my iPhone movies. I have 3 movies but now I am getting an error message that says some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied becuase they could not be found. Two of the movies are from the iTunes store and one is froma movie recently purchased.
Had the same issue, found a solution.
The iTunes Store open in my iTunes was U.S. and the apps on my iPad are from Switzerland's store. So I went to iTunes Store in iTunes, then opened the App Store tab and at the bottom right of this tab clicked the round american Flag button. Changed to Switzerland, went to Store>Authorize this computer (which it did sucessfully) and after that syncronization worked great. Hope this helps -
I recently had my MacBook stolen. I have an iPhone which had selected playlists, photos, ringtones, and apps from my old iTunes. Now I have purchased a new MacBook Pro and would like to sync my iPhone with my laptop, which has a whole new (empty) iTunes library. However, when I choose "sync" my phone with the new iTunes, it says it will erase all items on my iPhone and replace it with my new iTunes library(which is empty). Can someone please help me?? I really would like to keep these photos and playlists!!
You can transfer items on your iPhone to iPhoto, iTunes, etc. the software merely transfer the data, it does not store it. Very handy software to have around.

How can I sync my iphone to a new itunes?
Im trying to sync my iphone with my girlfriends computer on a new itunes that she created for me, but it says i'm synced to another computer. I have no access to that computer anymore so how do I un-sync from that computer and sync to my girlfriends?
Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your phone from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Set up your iTunes account, disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

I called Sprint yesterday and was treated terribly by tech support because I didn't want to switch devices. They as much as called me outright stupid for wanting to stay with my Palm Pre. Even though they agreed that all four phones were broken out

To start off, I absolutely do not understand iTunes. I feel that with every new "upgrade" it becomes more difficult to use. We have 3 apple ID's for our home to make syncing easier and not have complications with devices. I have a window's computer
