Connecting an iphone to a new mediathek

Hello,
I have an iphone which was synchronized with a macbook pro. Now I got a new macbook pro because the old one was damaged.
When I try to synchronize my iphone with the new macbook I get the message: "This iphone is connected to another mediathek. If you connect it to the mediathek on this computer all data on your iphone will be lost."
How can I connect my iphone to my new macbook and synchronize it so that I do not loose the data on the iphone?
Best regards,
Yoshi

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.

My PC was stolen. How can I connect my Iphone on a new PC without loosing everything (music, contacts, pictures, appli ....)?

Hello everybody,
Unfortunitely, my pc was stolen. Now I want to connect my Iphone on the new one but I don't know how to do it without loosing all I have inside (music, contacts, sms, mms, pictures, aplli ...).
I have done a backup from my Iphone... and a backup of my PC HD just one day before so I hope you will have a solution for me !!
An other thing... I don't know very well Itunes ... I can say that I am a beginner !!
Thanks a lot for your help !!

There is no way to get pictures off the phone or to move them from folders to the camera roll. The format on the phone is proprietary, so even if you could get them off you couldn't use them. Having said that, search the Internet; there are some apps that can access some files on the iPhone without hacking it. There may be one that can get the photos off. The only other option is to email them to yourself. This will reduce the resolution, however.
I'm afraid you have pointed out the importance of frequent computer backups.

Trouble connecting existing iphone content to new imac

Hi Everyone,
Not exactly sure im posting this in the right section however i recently purchased the new i5 27" imac (previously had a stand ol PC) which i had itunes on and my iphone sync'd to. I can get my iphone to now sync with itunes on my mac however i cannot add/remove any applications or import my music from my iphone to my library on this imac...any ideas how i can do this?? I have searched the help topics but cant seem to find the answers.

Hi Tara. Start iTunes and connect your iPhone to the imac. Make sure your iPhone shows up under the Devices in the iTunes Side Bar. Go to iTunes store and sign into your iTunes account. If you haven't already done so, authorize your new computer by going to Store -> Authorize Computer. You are allowed to authorize up to 5 computers for your iTunes account. If you have reached the limit, you need to deauthorize another previous computer first before authorizing your new imac. Once done, go to File -> Transfer Purchases from Tara's iPhone. It will then transfer all your music and apps from your iPhone to your new imac.

I just recently connected my iphone to a new laptop and it deleted all the information i had on it. more importantly the CONTACTS

I have just recently bought a new laptop and the first time I connected my Iphone to it, it removed all my contacts. How do I retrieve this information????

It didn't do this by itself.
When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on a different computer than the one use for syncing the iPhone, a warning message is provided indicating the iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer. You had to manually select sync contacts with a supported address book app on the new computer which is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. If the supported address book app on the computer is empty - includes no contacts, you must enter one contact in the address book app on the computer for a merge prompt to be provided, which you want to select.
Sync your iPhone with iTunes on your old computer if you were syncing contacts with a supported address book app on that computer.

In previous version of iTunes, sometimes I was able to connect, but now, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE

Thanks.. This solve my problem...
Hy there,
I've solved the same problem and in order for you to do soo you have to follow these stept if your running windows:
1'st step is to go into the device manager
2 step is to go to portable devices (it is rught under network adapters)
3 step is to right clic apple iphone and click update drivers
4 step is to brows your drivers from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
After that your itunes will pump up alown and youl see your iphone right there.
Good luck and sry for my bad righting.

I saved a backup on my iMac. Is it possible to "move" this backup to another computer, so i can connect my iPhone to my new computer and restore all things on my iPhone?

I used to have an iPhone full of all the greatest pictures of my life, the apps i enjoyed the most, and all my numbers to my friends and so on.
Now i have to change computer (The iMac still works) and i wonder, is it possible to move the backup (whereever it is found on the computer) from the iMac and put it onto my new HP laptop?
IF YES: Where is the backup file saved on the iMac?

If you still have the iPhone just download iTunes for Windows and sync your iPhone (do one last sync with the Mac first). To answer your question the location on your Mac for your media is at /Users/yournamehere/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Your contacts and pictures would need to be exported from iPhoto and the app you were using as your contact manager (Address Book, Outlook) The backup file is located at /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup

Need help switching my iPhone from connecting to old PC to new Mac.

Just bought a new Mac laptop today, and would like to connect my iPhone to this new Mac instead of the old PC I have been using for forever. However, I can't seem to figure out just how to do that. Trying to avoid restoring at all costs.

Best way is to use -> Windows Migration Assistant..
This will transfer all your user data, not just iTunes.

I want to be able to sync my iPhone 5 to my new iTunes library (new computer) and erase old music. When I connect my iPhone I have no option to "erase and sync."

So I have the iPhone 5. My old computer crashed so I ended up purchasing a new computer and re-installing and downloading all my old music and new music.
When I connect my iPhone to my new computer I can sync music but the old music still remains on my iPhone as well as the new music.
There's a lot on the phone that I don't want anymore but I can't seem to figure out how to erase it.
I don't want to restore the iPhone so I don't lose all my old messages and so forth.
I have all of the latest updates for the iPhone and well as iTunes.
If anyone has any answers to help that would be awesome!
Thanks.

Hey there,
It sounds like you are not getting the prompt to erase and sync your device. This indicates to me that Manual Syncing was enabled on the original iTunes Library, and becuase of that it is also now enabled on your new computer.
This is changable in the Summary tab of iTunes when you have your device selected, and this article will help you do that:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
Configure iPhone, iPad, or iPod for manual management
To manually manage the content, follow these instructions:
Connect the device to your computer.
Open iTunes.
Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. If your device isn't visible in the upper right corner of the screen, choose Library.
Click the Summary tab and select "Manually manage music and videos."
Click Apply.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Connect iPhone to a new Macbook Pro

I've been using iPhone with another PC and I just bought a new Macbook Pro recently since that PC was broken.
I tried to connect my iPhone to my new MBP, it didn't recognize so it asked me to restore. Is there any way to put all the data-address book, apps- back to my iPhone by not restoring??

Hi t,
You'd be much more likely to get your answer by posting in the iPhone forums:
