How can is sync apps ans rigtones to my iphone without deleting current ones one my phone?

when pressing "manually manage" button in itunes,it says that it should delete all current apps and restore them with those in its library. but i don't want it to delete all my applications and games... what should i do?? any advice???
thanksss

THIS is EXACTLY why I will be overjoyed to see iOS 5 arrive. They never should have started activating phones at the counter, either in Apple stores or carrier shops. They should have kept things the way they were with the original iPhone where activation had to be done by the customer on their computer.
First, go into iTunes preferences and tell it NOT to sync automatically when the phone is connected. Now plug the phone in. When it appears, go to File>Transfer Purchases.  This 'should' pull all of the apps from the phone provided they were purchased with the same Apple ID that is registered in iTunes.
After it does so, you can set up the sync and simply sync them back to the phone.

  • How can I sync my calendar form mac to iPhone without having to use iCloud?

    There used to an option called sync calendar under the summary of your iPhone on iTunes, but I could no longer find that option. I wouldn't really want to sync my calendar using iCloud because my calendar on iCloud is blank and I don't really want to retype everything again. Or is there any way I can sync my current calendar on mac to the one on iCloud?

    I read the title. It has nothing to do with what the OP is really wants.
    When replying in a helpful manner, one needs to read everything (the title and the entire post) and make an attempt to understand what they want.
    The OP does not want to lose the library on the computer.
    I will repeat it for you...
    "I wouldn't really want to sync my calendar using iCloud because my calendar on iCloud is blank and I don't really want to retype everything again."
    This line shows the OP does not understand how it works and also shows that the thread title is not really what the OP wants.

    The post I've linked to tells him how to use a server to do it. Read that entire post too.
    Why would the OP use a server when the OP is fine using iCloud to sync?
    Indeed, the OP asks (in the same post even) how to sync using iCloud (which is in direct conflict with the thread title).
    "is there any way I can sync my current calendar on mac to the one on iCloud?"
    PNWD!

  • How can I take off my messages from my iPhone without deleting them

    I want to take off my messages from my iPhone 4, but I don't want to delete them.  Is there a way to take them off and save them somewhere.

    You can do it, but you need another library signed in to iTunes match. That second library shouldn't have any local files stored.
    Delete the entry from that second library and it will ask you to confirm that you want to remove the file from the cloud. Confirm that you do.
    Now, as long as you don't delete the file from your main library it will have an iCloud status of "removed" and won't be in the cloud or try add it again.
    However, if you sign out of match on that computer and then sign in again it will then re-add it to the cloud, so this isn't a method to use if you tend to turn match on and off much.
    I have had the Beatles Mono albums in my main library, but not in the cloud, for a while now without any problems.

    cant update apps on my mac or iphone4. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it  . i can download apps and music.  how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

    Question: I have a computer at home and one at work. Can I update my iPod music collection from more than one computer?
    Answer: Yes. When you first connect iPod to your computer, iPod recognizes that computer as its "home" computer. Each time you connect, iPod automatically downloads the music library stored on it. When you connect iPod to a different computer, iTunes will inform you that iPod is linked to a different iTunes library and will ask whether you wish to erase iPod's contents and sync with the new computer's library. If you will be connecting to multiple computers frequently, configure your iPod to manually manage music. This will allow you to selectively drag songs, albums, or playlists from the second computer to your iPod without compromising the existing music.
    Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your iPod. This means you typically cannot transfer music, automatically or manually, from your iPod to a computer, and you cannot use iPod to copy a music library from one computer to another. An exception to this is the transfer purchases feature which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to your computer from your iPod. Additionally, if you legally are allowed to copy music or other media files, you can configure your iPod as a storage drive to move media files.

    how can i sync contacts from icloud to my iphone from pc

    I just went to icloud-contacts- OFF.  It asks if I want to keep my contacts on the phone and I said yes.
    Thanks so much.  Saved me a ton of time.
    One thing I noticed though is for my name, it used to have an image of a person.  That is gone now on my phone but on my computer.  Is that only in iCloud?

    Go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account if you haven't already done so, turn Contacts on and choose Merge with iCloud when prompted.  If you are syncing contacts from an external account (Gmail, Yahoo, exchange, etc.) you will need to take additional steps to add them.  Let me know if that's the case.

    As a businessman, my Contacts are my life, as well as containing a lot of personal information. I usually keep my phone
    up-to-date, only taking my pad on trips, but it's essential that I have both the same.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Sync your iPad with computer iTunes.
    Note: your contacts should be in computer Outlook (Windows) or Contacts (Mac) application.
    If you have iCloud configured in iPhone, do the same for iPad.
