I have rebuilt my home PC and want to restore my playlists from my iPhone and iPad to the PC but I can only fgind how to sync the other way (i.e. iTunes on PC overwrites the iPhone or iPad)! Frustrating! Can anyone Help?

Hi All,
I have both the iPhone (16Gb 4S) and an iPad (128Gb Retunia display).
My home PC recently failed and I was unable to restore and through some bad luck my backups were rained on and corrupted (I have tried all sorts ot tricks to get it back but no luck and have now moved on to rebulding and regathering the data and applications).
Bottom line is that I have replaced the pld machen wioth a newer model and more RAM, etc.
My problem is that I do not appear to be able typo restore my playlists from my iPad and iPhone to the PC!
Every way I have tried wants to overwrite my iPhone or iPad with what is on the PC!
How can I get the music on my iPad/iPhone to the PC?
I have most of the music tracks (in various places) still but do not want to go through the 6000 tracks IU have to pick out my playlists all over again. That was the work of a few years!
Second item:
I have a few ibooks and am unsure ghopw to get the onto my iPad? ANy hints or help will be appreciated.
Thank you

This explains how to do what you want to do. It was written for an iPhone or an iPod Touch, but the process is the same for an iPad.
