How to get a new iTunes without losing my stuff on my iPhone

So When updating my phone last time My dad synced all our phones together and I discounted my phone from our cloud and then locked us all out of our itunes. Should have been an easy fix but I was 13 when I made our itunes account (now 18) and do NOT remember my answer for the security questions at all and therefore none of us can not get into our itunes and that means I have not been able to update my phone since September and its running so slow. I really wanna just get a new itunes account but I really don't want to lose any of my apps or pictures on my phone. Can someone please help me!

When you sync the iPad 1 to iTunes it should copy all of the items from the iPad into iTunes.
However, you can connect your iPad 1 to your computer, launch iTunes, right click on the device name on the left side of iTunes and select Transfer Purchases. This will transfer all paid apps, movies, music etc into iTunes. The you can sync the iPad 1 to iTunes one last time to make sure all content is backed up.
This talks about transferring purchases.

Disconnect iPad 1, connect iPad 2, select all of the stuff that was on iPad 1 and sync.

No. If your library isn't already on your computer downloading the latest copy of iTunes won't correct that. Ideally you would Migrate your iTunes library from your previous computer, or see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device if that is no longer possible.

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your phone from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Set up your iTunes account, disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.

How can i transfer my ipod to my new itunes without losing all music

my computer crashed and now all i have is my cousins and i need to know how to convert my music onto her new itunes, hopefully without losing all my music. if thats possible, so there is no way i can go back to my old itunes, her computer is the only itunes i will be able to use. how can i transferr my ipod touch to her computer without losing all data???

Welcome to the discussion,
Create a new user in windows to keep your iTunes library separate and log in. Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures 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 ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

How to transfer iphones info with new itunes without losing everything

my mac recently crashed due to hard drive failure. It has been replaced but has lost eveything on it. Now when i plug my iphone in the 'new' itunes doesnt recognize it and if i sync it will erase eveything. so i would love to know how i can transfer my music, contacts and apps to the new itunes? Thanks

On your new Mac, start iTunes, check for updates and ensure you have the latest version.
Sign-in to the iTunes Store (creating a new Apple Id if needed).
On your old Mac locate your Song files and make a secure backup.
Restore the secure backup to a folder on your new Mac.
On your new Mac, import the Song files into your library - once complete, make a secure backup of your Song files.
On your new Mac, start iTunes Match and allow the process to run to completion - following the notes in the User Tips area of this forum to overcome any issues that may arise.
On your iPhone 5, start the iTunes Match service and allow the process to complete whilst in good local WiFi and/or physically connected.

Can I sync my device (iPhone/iPad) to a new iTunes without losing my old apps?

My family and I have been sharing the same iTunes account for a while now. We have three iPhones and my iPad all using the same iTunes on our home desktop. I recently got my own Pro and want to creat my own itunes and sync my iPad and iPhone to it. I want to keep my three devices together and use iCloud only with my devices. Most of my apps are free so I know I can just download them again but I do have a few paid for apps like Pages that I do not want to lose and pay for again. Is there a way I can bring over my paid for apps to my new iTunes library???

If you are using the same account again, disable autosync in iTunes, set up your account, set up at least one contact and event on your Mac, to be able to merge data during the first sync.
Connect your device, right click on it in the device list and choose "backup". This will back up your device without syncing. Transfer your purchases the same way, to copy all bought media and apps to your new library.
The first sync will erase your device, but you can use the manual created backup to restore your settings and data again.

How- Sync to a new laptop without losing iPhone music?

Hi! I went to get the new iphone today (ack; cracked screen!) and I was told I needed to 'sync' my info from my old iphone first onto my laptop.
I am very thankful for those who take time to answer a cry for help; you will never know what it means to the other end of the computer who needs help.
So....I went home and tried; but it looks like I lose all the info on it.
My laptop is new; I've never synced it before. The laptop does have about 20 audio files I would like on the iphone, but right now they are in the computers 'music folder.'
When I press sync; the bar at the bottom of the sync page is significantly smaller which leads me to believe that on my iphone the 500 songs are lost and replaced by these 20 songs.
I'm worried that everything is going to be lost with my contacts, calendar, etc. My iphone is the one up to date.
Can you help? I really am looking forward to a new iphone! THANK YOU!!!!

My old computer died, and all of my itunes music is now on a USB. I have a new computer, but I have not yet downloaded the new itunes to it. How do I go about getting all of my music from the USB onto the new itunes without losing it all?

I need help getting my music from my USB to itunes onto my new computer. I have not yet downloaded itunes to my new computer, because I wanted to know how to do things first.

Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

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.

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

Putting iphone on new itunes without losing everything

so i got me a new macbook and have my iphone setup with the itunes on my old computer. everytime i try to set it up on the new one it wants to delete all my files. how can i get all my files on the new computer. thanks

The iPhone is designed to sync with only one iTunes Library. Move the files directly from your old computer to your new computer using an external hard drive, a network connection, etc., then when you sync all your same content will be reloaded.
