  • How do I sync with a new computer without losing everything?

    I no longer have access to the computer I originally synced my iPhone with.  I want to sync it with a new computer and back everything up without losing anything.  How do I do that?  Please help!

    Using the information below you can transfer content to your new computer.  Thiis will at least update the content to have what is on your phone but you will still be syncing with a new iTunes library.  It will replace your content but hopefully you can make the replaced content match your existing content.
    Make a backup of your computer always.  This is the digital age and it is all too easy to lose music and photos in an instant.
    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • My old computer got stolen, how can I sync to a new itunes without losing all my contacts, and other stuff?

    So my old windows computer that my iphone was sync to got stolen, I bought a new MacBook Pro and it asking me to erase and sync What can I do to keep all my contacts, photos, and other data and sync my iphone then restore all my data? or anything similar you might think that could help. Please any information or tips will be helpful!

    The right way is to restore the backup that you kept of your old computer onto your new one. If it is too late for that before you do anything set up a backup process for the new one so when it crashes (note I said "when", not "if") you won't be faced with this problem again.
    In lieu of that the apps already mentioned will help you get content off the phone if it was not purchased from iTunes. But it it WAS purchased from iTunes just connect the phone to your new computer, Authorize iTunes on the new computer and choose "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes file menu.

  • How do you sync with a new computer, without wiping the device?

    I recently got an iphone. I installed the software to sync at work. I bought a few apps. Now looking back that was a mistake to install it there. How can I carry over to sync with a newly installed itunes on my PC (Vista) laptop?
    I'm sure others have to deal with this when they even get a new PC at home, or where ever.
    Thanks in advance.
    Peter

    Hey Peter,
    I'm no pro, but when we recently synced my wifes' new iPhone at home, we were given an option to either let the phone override the existing computer information or vice-versa (In iTunes, select your iPhone>info tab. advanced). Would it be possible to set your iPhone to override your computer, thus loading everything onto your computer from the iPhone?
    Good Luck!

How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one (when I have no password and the security questions aren't working?)

    You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
    You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

  • For Christmas I got a new computer after my other computer broke so I am wondering is there a way to sync my iPod touch that I already had with my new computer without deleting all my app data because I have over 200 hundred dollors of games

    I got a new computer for Christmas it is a gateway and I have downloaded iTunes on it I need  to know if there is a way that I can sync my iPod touch with my new computer without deleting all of my app data I don't have my old computer It crashed so u can't even turn it on

    You should be able to:
    Use Edit > Preferences > Devices > Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.
    Connect the device to iTunes.
    Backup the device to the new computer.
    Transfer your iTunes purchases into a newly authorized library.
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer.
    Restore the device from the backup.
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps. When you get it all fixed, make a backup!
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.

  • I synced with a new computer. Lost apps, reinstalled, had docu in an office2HD app when reinstalled, but will not cut and paste?

    I synced with a new computer, lost apps. Reinstalled and office2HD had all docs still in, but now I can not get the cut and paste feature to work? Also had problems with Gmail account and deleted and created new, so not sure I can download the app a 3rd time?

    Two ways.
    - You can sync with the new computer by following these instructions
    Sync Your iOS Device with a New Computer Without Losing Data - How-To Geek
    All the apps have to be in the iTunes library so the app data will have a place to go.
    - Or just restore from iCloud backup. That will also pull down the apps from iCloud. Your apps data will also be restored.
