I bought a new computer, and want to sync my iphone with it.

My iphone is currently synced with another computer. Can someone please give me step by step instructions, so I can make sure I do it all correctly, w/out erasing everything on my iphone? Thank you!

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

I have a new computer and want to sync my iPhone's apps. when I tell it to do so it says that all apps in my phone will be replaced by the ones in iTunes, but it's empty because it's new. If I do so will all my apps be deleted?

Transfer purchases over from your phone to your computer before you sync your apps. See Transferring Purchases for more details.

I have a new computer and want to sync my Iphone and Ipad2 to the new computer, is there an easy way to do this?

I have a new computer and want to sync my Iphone and Ipad2 to the new computer (PC) instead of the old one, is there an easy way to do this?

Extract from one of our senior participant.
Syncing with new computer
1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

I just got a new computer and want to sync my iphone music to it. Is this possible and how would I do it?

Please help me figure out how to sync my iphone 4 library to my new laptop.
Thank you

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases: FIle>Devices>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything form the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.

I bought a new computer and want to transfer pics from a regular folder to the new computer. What's the best way to do that?

I bought a new computer and want to transfer pics from a regular folder to the new computer. These aren't in the cloud so they didn't transfer automatically. What's the best way to do that? Can I sync my old computer to my new computer through I tunes and transfer them that way?

iTunes will only transfer them to your iPad, and once transferred to your iPad they cannot be imported to your other computer (only camera roll photos can). You will either have to use a usb flash drive or external drive to transfer them, or use an app like PhotoSync, which will transfer photos between your devices and computers over your wifi.

I have a new computer and want to sync my phone to the new but dont want to lose the information. how do i transfer

i have a new computer and want to sync my phone to the new but dont want to lose the information. how do i transfer. i was told there was a way but not sure how

for the purchased items from the iTunes Store, you could use transfer of purchases
for the photos, other music/movie not from itunes, you'll be needing a third party application
for contacts, calendars , photos from camera roll : you could just directly transfer it from your phone to the computer.

1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

If you still have the old computer see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
If you don't have your old computer, but you made regular backups of it, restore the most recent backup using the backup software that you used to make the backup. You will have to read the instructions for it.
If you don't have your old computer and you did not back it up regularly see: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

I have a new computer and want to sync my phone and all it's apps to my new computer. How do I do this without loosing all of my apps?

I
I have had a total meltdown of my system and have had to rebuild my computer because of a lightning strike which took out my main computer and my backup system therefore I do not have a way to restore all of my old files. When I rebuilt my computer I decided to go with Windows 7 rather than staying with Windows Vista when I attach my Apple iPhone to the new computer and tried to sync it, it tells me that it wants to wipe out everything on my phone. My iPhone was backed up to the cloud but I do not see way to restore it from the cloud and I do not want to lose all of my apps and data that are on my iPhone. I have gone to the Apple online store to see if I could restore the apps that I have purchased from their and have not been able to find anything that relates to reinstalling all the apps that I have purchased as well as my bookmarks and addresses as well as a lot of the data in documents to go and do not want to lose them as it is the only place that I have them left. How do I do this without losing all of my apps and data that is on my iPhone?
Please help out of this nightmare and keep me loyal to iPhone.
This has become an all day and night ordeal.

Where is your computer's backup of all important data that should include your iTunes library and should have been created or updated immediately before installing a new OS? Did you lose all important data when doing do or just your iTunes content? The iPhone is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device.
