Connect your iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Make sure you see the iPhone under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window.
Then select from the menu what you want to sync.. Music / Apps / Video / Podcasts etc.
Tunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone under Devices, click here.

How do I sync my iphone with itunes without losing everything on my phone?

Normally, you should be able to sync your iPhone with iTunes without losing anything
What can happen is that you might have emptied your iTunes library for any reason such as a system restore
If this is the case, you first need to Import iPhone library to iTunes and then, you'll be able to sync your iPhone with iTunes with no problem

You don't as far as I know.
You can only buy from the itunes store in the country in=which you reside.
"Purchases or rentals (as applicable) from the iTunes Store are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions, and are not available in any other location. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Store from outside of the available territory. Apple may use technologies to verify such compliance."

Manually backed up iphone with itunes.. itunes said successful, but lied.

I manually backed up my iphone with itunes. It said it was successful. I then went to restore my phone..got through most of the process until I had to choose which backup to restore from and my latest backup from a moment ago was never saved? I can't find it anywhere. I'm shocked. I've checked the mobilesync folder.
So I lost a lot of things over the last 4 months. I'll have to just deal with it and move on.
I always backup before tinkering with upgrades. One thing I didn't backup was my system harddrive. I know what everyone is going to say, but I'm just really suprised that now we can't even trust a safety feature built natively into itunes.
If there's no other way to retrieve this, is there a way to prevent this? I guess next time I can triple check and make sure it's in that library folder before moving on... but GEEZ

itunes gave me the standard message. Something along the lines of "backup completed"
I actually ran diagnostics and disk utility on my harddrive about a week ago. I was just suprised that this happened. I had some trouble finding other people that had a similar problem. Only found a few from some hardcore digging via google.

HT1766 How do you sync an iphone with itunes on a new MacBook Pro without deleting everything on your iPhone? It is the iPhone 4.

How do you sync an iphone 4 with itunes on a new MacBook Pro without deleting everything on your iPhone 4 if it was previously syned on a PC?

Follow the steps listed here under the section titled "External Drive". Once you find the location of the iTunes Media folder you can transfer it over a netork connection, rather than using an external drive.

How can I synchronise my Iphone with Itune without losing all my contacts in my Iphone?

I am working for someone who has more than one computer with Itune installed.
I have been asked to synchronise an Iphone with one of them.
Before doing, I would like to make sure that I will not lose all the contacts on the Iphone.
Can anybody help me?
Thank you!

Remember that your iPhone will be able to sync with only one computer/iTunes Library. If your boss is insisting that you sync with one of his computers, I do hope he is at least paying your monthly cell bill, and preferably the initial cost of the phone itself.
You can copy your own computer's iTunes Library to your boss's computer first. You will then get all your apps and media back during the first wipe-and-sync with the new computer. You can also copy the Address Book data from your computer to your boss's computer to preserve your Contacts data.
An easier way to preserve your Contacts data is to sync it "over the air" using an email service. MobileMe, Google, and Yahoo are all easy to use for Contacts syncing. This is a very good method to use, since your Contacts are always "in the cloud" and available from anywhere, including from any computer with a web browser connected to the internet.

How do I sync an iPhone with iTunes when it's already sync'd with another?

My old mac died - hard drive went, so I'm starting a fresh now and I've tried to sync my iPhone with the new iTunes but because it is still sync'd to the old one it wants to delete everything off the phone. Is there anyway I can sync without losing everything?
Thanks,
Andy

In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on one computer only. When syncing iTunes content with an iTunes library on another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone that was transferred to the iPhone from another computer will be erased first. The same applies to photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone.
Contact info, calendar events, and bookmarks can be synced with the supported applications on multiple computers.
If you don't have a backup for your old Mac that includes your iTunes library, iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize the Mac you will be syncing your iPhone with - with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
If you will be syncing contact info and calendar events with the Address Book and iCal on the Mac you will now be syncing your iPhone with and both applications haven't been used and are void of any data, enter one contact in the Address Book and one calendar events in iCal before syncing this data. Makes these up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing this data, which you want to select.

How do i sync my iphone with itunes on windows 8?

I have Windows 8 and I cannot sync my iphone 5 to my itunes.
When I open Itunes, I go to File > Devices > but i cannot select the Sync options.
I don't know why.
I am thinking it is because i am using Windows 8. however I have checked my updates, and itunes says i'm currently upated with itunes (11.0.4)
Please help!!! it's really frustrating because i want the music on my itunes to go on my iphone!!
Thank you!!

Hello Indyrue,
It sounds like you are not seeing the options to sync in the latest version of iTunes. I found an article that has steps for syncing with iTunes 11:
