  • Can I sync my iPhone with my new MacBook Pro without losing my data & apps?

    I was hoping to sync my iPhone (which is currently registered with my PC) with my new MacBook Pro. Is it possible to transfer my apps to my new MacBook or alternatively, sync my iPhone to my MacBook without losing all the apps?
    I'm a little wary after syncing an iPod to a new laptop and losing all of my data, so thought I should check this before making any drastic changes...
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the discussions,
    A manual backup will do what you want. Here's how to:
    Make sure your iTunes account is set up on your new Mac. 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 (Apps and bought media) by choosing File->transfer purchases in the iTunes menu.
    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.

  • Can I sync my iPhone with more than one computer without losing everything on my phone?, Can I sync my iPhone with more than one computer without losing everything on my phone?

    I accidentally synced my iPhone on a different computer and now when I try to sync to my laptop it says I have to erase everything on my phone. Can I sync without that happening?

    No, you can only sync with one computer.

  • How can I sync my iPhone with my new macbook air that already has music on it?

    I need help! I have an Iphone 4 that has all my music on it but I recently got a macbook air that already has all my songs. I want to sync my phone with my itunes but it says i may not want to. What do I do?

    Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  If you sync to another, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
    Make sure everything is on the new computer.

  • How can I sync my iPhone 4 with a new MacBook Pro without losing all my data and settings?

    I used to sync my iPhone 4 with a PC running Windows XP until the hard drive died. Thankfully, I already had a backup of all my iTunes media (Songs, TV Shows, Movies, Podcasts, Apps, etc), so when I bought a new MacBook Pro, transferring my iTunes library was easy.
    My problem now is that I want to sync my iPhone 4 with my new MacBook Pro without losing all the data and settings. I have already used iTunes to back it up and transfered my purchases onto the mac. I just need help to sync the iPhone with the Mac without losing app data, emails, contacts, settings.
    Everytime I click on the tabs (to sync contacts, apps, music, et al), I get an error message that reads:
    "Are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone “Ryan's iPhone” will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library."
    What do I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ryan

  • How can I link my iPhone with a new MacBook if I have apps on the iPhone from 3 different Apple ID accounts?

    Since I live in three diffirent countries and I have 3 Apple ID accounts on my iPhone 4S. Recently I bought a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion installed.
    I am not sure that when I connect my iPhone with a new MacBook all my data (apps, music, podcasts, etc.) will be transferred from the iPhone to MacBook iTunes.
    So what should I do to transfer all my data to the new MacBook and to sync the data with iPhone as usual?

    Follow the steps here, but when you come to the part about "authorizing" this computer, you will have to do so for each account/Apple Id:

  • How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    how can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
    Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
    Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

  • I am unable to sync my iPad with my new MacBook Air without losing all photos even though both are linked to the same iTunes account

    I am unable to sync my iPad with my new MacBook Air without losing all photos even though both are linked to the same iTunes account

    Transferring photos from your computer has nothing to do with your iTunes account/Apple ID.
    Photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring photos from another, all photos on the iPad that were transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPad first - even if the photos were transferred from the old or different computer to the new computer being used for syncing.
    When transferring photos from your computer, what is named the iPod Photo Cache is created on your computer for the photos that are transferred and why you see new photos being transferres are optimized before the actual transfer process. The iPod Photo Cache for these photos on the computer the photos were transferred from is not available on your new computer.
    Since all photos on your iPad that were transferred from the old or different computer should remain on that computer, transfer the photos from that computer to your new computer. These photos on your iPad will be erased with the first sync but will be re-transferred along with a new iPod Photo Cache for these photos being created on your new computer.

  • Can I sync my iphone with 2 different Itunes Library without erasing data?

    Hello,. I would like to know if its possible to sync my iphone with two different Itunes library without data from first itunes library getting deleted when sync with second itunes library, (I mean, at least the music and videos)
    Thanks!

    iOS devices can only sync with one library at a time.  To sync with a new library, you have to remove the current libraries content.
    An alternative would be to move content to one computer (using an external drive or homesharing), and then sync with the library you choose.

  • How can I sync my iPhone to a new (empty) iTunes without replacing everything on my phone with the new library?

    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 with a new iTunes library and not loose apps?

    Up until a few days ago I was syncing my iPhone with my PC notebook. Long story short, the machine crashed and I had to re-install. luckily I had a backup of all of the music from my iTunes library which is now hosted on my Mac Mini, but I didn't have a copy of my apps (why iTunes keeps these files outside of the folder I kept my library in I don't know).
    Now I'm syncing music and video with my Mac Mini, but when I select that I want to sync apps I get the message that everything on the phone will be deleted.. Is there a way to back up the apps so I can add them to the library and sync them back to the phone without losing them?

    I had the same issue with a withdrawn app. Just copy all the .app files from the old directory to somewhere on the new machine, then drag them onto the Application menu item on the left hand side and iTunes will import them as long as you've already registered iTunes for the same account.
    Job done! Worked a treat for me - including the app that wasn't available any more.....

  • New PC: how can I sync my Iphone with a new PC without loosing data?

    I have an old Windows Vista PC with Itunes.
    I want to sync my iPhone4 with a new Windows 8 PC.
    I only sync music and video with the iphone and itunes, NOT email adress contacts, etc (I do not want to mix and mingle all my contacts on PC and phone).
    I DO want to take all the contacts to the new itunes.
    Problem: When I connect my iphone to the new Windows 8 PC with the new Itunes, I get the warning that "all the data on the iphone will be replaced with the data on the Itunes", in other words: the iphone will be empty
    Anyone any advice how to do this simple thing which is made super complex by Apple? Thanks.
    ( @ Apple: Apple engineers and Apple marketing should be ashamed that there is no simple way to do this, and there is no simple and clear information on the apple website for this !!!)

    Copy everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer,  to the new one.
    To what do you sync your contacts?  Icloud?  Other service?
    Problem: When I connect my iphone to the new Windows 8 PC with the new Itunes, I get the warning that "all the data on the iphone will be replaced with the data on the Itunes", in other words: the iphone will be empty
    Correct.  The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced. 
    It should be very simple.  Everything should be on your computer, or cloud service.  The itunes simply allows your information from your computer, cloud service to be protable.
    Copy everything to the new computer, then sync.
