How can I sync my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G to ANY computer/itunes without having to erase EVERYTHING on it?

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.

    If i cancel the "sync", I won't have any of my applications update though, will I?  I want my applications to update, I just don't want to lose the appointments and dates that I have scheduled in my calendar.  Any ideas?

    "i want to know will yamipod copy everything to my itunes from my ipod like playlists and the name of the ipod , settings etc"
    Yamipod copies music (including playlist). Your settings are stored on the iPod and will not change. That includes the name you gave it which should show up in iTunes whenever you connect the iPod.
    Yamipod does not transfer play-counts, ratings etc.

  • How can I Sync the applications from my ipod touch to my iphone 4s through itunes???

    I recently got a new iphone4s
    And would like to sync some apps which i have on my ipod touch over to my iphone
    but not all of them. I am using itunes through windows 7 many thanks

    If the music on the iPod was purchased through iTunes you can try Transfer Purchases.
    Connect the iPod to the Mac and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPod name on the left side of the iTunes window under the devices heading and select Transfer Purchases. That should transfer the music into the iTunes library on the Mac.

  • How can I use Original iPhone as an iPod Touch?

    I have done a full reset on the phone. When I start to sync iTunes wants to activate the phone. Do I need to remove the sym card?
    Thanks

    That's what I did for my daughter with my old 3G a couple of years ago. Works great and is a perfect media device minus the phone. Great way to recycle it through the family considering how much I paid for it new. Since I used a full body shield front and back, the thing looked brand NEW. She actually liked using it as an iPod way better than the earlier 2nd generation touch she had.
    Have fun.

    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 my home computer (to sync with itunes music) AND my work computer (to sync with Outlook calendar)?

    Sorry iphones are meant to be sync to one iTunes media library.
    You could copy your music and put it on your work computer and then sync it.
    If you try to sync to one and then sync to other its going to wipe the phone and remove the old sync with the new sync.
