My computer crashed. how do i restore my content from my phone back to my computer

how do i restore my content from my phone to my itunes on a new 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.
above covers your purchased content. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

    Hi,
    Do you have a Backup of your Computer... Time Machine... External Hard Drive...?

    My old computer crashed how do i get the music from my ipod to sinc with my itunes library?

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music that you've bought from other sources or copied from your own CDs then have you not got a backup of them on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto the computer ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program to copy them off - this post mentions some that were around a couple of years ago, whether they still exist and work I don't know.

  • When your computer crashes how do your get the music on your iphone back on your new computer

    when your computer crashes how do your get the music on your iphone back on your new computer?

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

    My old computer crashed and I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

    Then you will need to search for a 3rd party program to transfer content
    Pasted from another thread

    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump andiPodRobot.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
    More information is contained here.

    You will need to restore your phone as a new one using the itunes on your computer.  This WILL erase everything on the phone but it will let you change the name of the phone and then you can add content to it.

  • How do i get my library from my phone to my new computer? I no longer have access to the old computer. When I try to sync it says it will erase everythiong from my phone.

    How do I get my library from my phone to my new computer? I no longer have access to the old computer and when I try to sync my music, it says it will erase everything on my phone. My itunes library is not showing up when I sign into the new computer. Its not even showing any downloads.

    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which you sync.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone:  File>Transfer Purchases.

  • Computer crashed, how do i get my itunes from my ipod to my computer again?

    Hello,
    A couple of weeks ago my computer picked up a virus and went death blue. I have reformatted my hard drives and re-installed everything including latest version of itunes. I have connected my ipod to my computer and it recognizes it but I cannot figure out how to transfer my library from my ipod back to my computer? Any ideas? I hope this makes sense. Any questions? Thanks for your time.

    A quick search on the forums could have answered this for you, but oh well:

  • Computer Crash- How do I prevent my iPod from clearing all the songs?

    My computer crashed recently, and all the files and folders have been deleted. I still have the songs on my iPod, a second generation nano, is there any way I can get the songs from my iPod back onto my computer? I've heard that if I plug my iPod back in, it'll clear all of the songs. Any help is appreciated!

    This question has been asked a lot. itunes blocks the function of transferring the songs (not purchased) from ipod back to computer, you can have a look of below answer,same issue: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6301496#6301496

  • How do I delete an app from my phone but not the computer? Is there a way to deactivate it so it doesn't add it back when it syncs?

    How do I delete and app from my phone but not from the computer? Is there a way to do this so it doesn't add it back in when it syncs?

    In iTunes under the Apps tab for the iPhone device just uncheck any app you don't want synced to the phone. When you next sync the app will be removed from the phone but remain in the iTunes library.

  • HT1386 I have downloaded my cd music from my previous computer to my I Phone.  The phone will randomly play the music without notice, therefore killing my battery.  How can I save this music from my phone to my new computer, and erase it from the phone???
