You need to copy everything form your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. it simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

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.

HT1296 If I want to sync my iPhone to my new MacBookPro that was previously synced with a different computer, will it erase everything from my iPhone?

Yes, unless you first transfer a copy of your iTunes folder from the old computer to the new one.

My old Macbook Pro is destroyed. I want to sync my iPhone to my new one without losing everything on it.

My old macbook is destroyed. I need to sync my iphone with my new macbook, but it doesn't seem like that's going to be easy considering I would need to be able to access my old macbook. Is anyone sure of how to do this without losing all my music, pictures, apps, etc?

Should not matter.
Why post here when there is MacBook and iPhone as well as iTunes forums and support.

HT4847 iTunes said that if i want to sync my iPhone to my new macbook that it will delete everything. Will iCloud still keep my stuff?

I just got a new macbook and i want to sync my iphone to it but when i do that itunes tells me that it will delete my everything because im already hooked up to my desktop. I googled a way to transfer my itunes over by using a flashdrive but my desktop broke down. i was wondering if it really will delete everything. if so is this there where icloud comes to my recue?

Welcome to the Apple Community Kate.
It will only delete your synced content, which you can then resync, it won't affect your iCloud data.

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

I need to sync my iphone3 to a new computer without loosing my data

Take a look here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141 I think this is what you need. I just did a clean install of OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard on our iMac (mid-07) and used this guide to get my wife's iPhone (3GS) to sync with it again...without losing the apps. This page from OSXdaily is also useful: http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/29/sync-iphone-new-computer-without-losing-data/ I do use Time Machine, and backed up my drive before I did the whole wipe and install, so I did have all the backup files for the iPhone... It took a little time, but I did manage to drag all the music and photos over so I didn't lose anything. Hope this helps.

HT1296 my computer crashed and i want to sync my iphone to a new computer ow can i do this?

is there away to sync my iphone4s to a new lptop?

The EASY way is to restore the backup that you must have kept of the computer that crashed to your new laptop. In lieu of that there's a much more complicated process that preserves most, but not all content: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

HT4946 i want to backup my iPhone to my new iMac but my backup is selected to Encrypt Local backup and my password does not work.

I am trying to backup my iPhone on my new iMac iTunes. It is currently backed up on my PC and encrypted. Both PC and iMac iTunes have Encrypted backup selected. My password does not work for either iMac or PC. Should I go ahead and try to backup to my iMac iTunes.

Sorry to hear about your phone jb111jb! We'll do everything we can to help find the best route! The only way to remove the password is flashing the device, but that will erase all the content. Have you ever backed up using Verizon Cloud or Google Sync? Do you have a memory card?

HT1296 i want to sync my ipod with the new itunes but i cant unlock my passcode without the screen turning on, what to do?

recently my ipod touch 2nd generation screen hasnt been turning on at all,i've tried the home screen button and power button but even that doesnt work,... i have updated my itunes to the newest version but i cannot sync it without unlocking my passcode how can i go into recovery mode or simply back up my ipod if there is no way to unlock it?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I want to sync my iphone 4 to itunes on my new laptop

I've just bought a new laptop and want to sync my iphone to my new laptop without losing any of the photos and contacts on my iphone
any ideas how to do this?

Syncing your phone to a new computer will erase all iTunes media from the phone (including music) and replace it with the media in the new iTunes library. Music purchased from the iTunes store can be transferred from the phone to iTunes on your new computer. Other music cannot. Transferring non-purchased music from your phone to your computer requires 3rd party software such as Touch Copy. This guide will show you how to sync with your new computer with little or no data loss: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.
