How do I sync my iphone with a different mac computer

Hi there,
My laptop crashed and I have changed my email address. I am now using an older desktop ( Mac OS X (10.6.8). I want to update my apple id on my iphone 4s but am not sure if syncing it to another computer will delete my info/ contacts etc. from my phone. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

    Alternatively, depending on where the data in Outlook is coming from, you could set up your phone to sync to the same account that Outlook is syncing with.  For example, my Outlook 2011 and my iPhone both sync to my work Exchange account, so I have that same calendar in both places.

  • How do I sync my iPhone to a different iTunes computer?

    Hello,
    I got my iPhone 4 (first timer here), and I synced it to my iTunes at work to activate it. Now I read that it is 'locked' to this computer!
    Is there any way I can sync it with my home computer? A solution where the information on my phone is un-touched (no pun intended) is mandatory. At home my iTunes is empty, so don't mind if my home 'library' will get wiped.

    In regards to iTunes content - music, movies, tv shows, and 3rd party apps, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos with iTunes on another, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    The activation process is separate from the syncing process. You can activate an iPhone without syncing the iPhone with iTunes afterwards.
    What do you want to sync with iTunes on your home computer if your iTunes library on your home computer is empty. If you have iTunes content available in your iTunes library on your computer at work, don't select Sync Music, Sync Ringtones, Sync Movies, Sync TV Shows, Sync Podcasts, and Sync Apps under these tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your home computer.

  • How do I sync my iphone with my new mac?

    I have used migration assistant to get stuff over but what about my SMS, Pictures, music, etc....because when I plug in my iphone it says that its synced with another library and i have to erase all the stuff to sync with my new one....
    how do I change this so that when i plug in my phone i can still have my sms and pictures? thanks..

    Disable autosync in itunes, connect your phone, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures taken with the phone and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer. Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your phone got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

  • ITunes for Mac don't recognize my Apps (copied since PC). How can I sync my iPhone with my new mac?

    Hi,
    i'm new with Mac, and i Have a doubt..
    I read that to transfer itunes information (apps mainly) since PC to MAc, you just had to copy the itunes folder and paste it in Mac (Music)..
    wel.. i did that, but then when I opened iTunes in Mac, it didn't recognize any application.. and I don't know why...
    searching and exploring, I realized something...
    the folder where my apps were in PC was Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile applications..
    and, searching on internet, i look that all the people said that in Mac, the folder is Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications..
    could be this the problem that i Have????
    if I change all my apps from one side to another, could itunes recognize it??
    thank you very much for your help.

    The Apple store will move your content from your old computer to your new one.
    You can call Apple Support and they will walk you through it.
    You can type " move itunes library from pc to mac" into the google search bar.

    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

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.
