My laptop was stolen and I need to be able to connect my iPhone4 to the new laptop and transfer content (photos, mp3's, apps etc.) to the new laptop. I'm afraid to try a sync in case it deletes all the content off the iPhone. Any suggestions?

You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

hi, recently i have forgotten my passcode to my itouch and it has disabled it. if i connect my itouch to my current itunes to enable it, will my music/apps etc be deleted off my ipad? thankyou!
You need to place the iPod in Recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen -
Hi. I was setting up an iCloud account on my son's iPhone. We set up the account, but then decided to delete it. When we did, we accidentally deleted all the contacts from his iPhone. There was no backup done yet. I tried backing up his contacts in verizon backup, but that didn't work. Can anyone help p,was. He lost hundreds of contacts
If you deleted the account by going to Settings>icloud, scrolled to bottom of page and tapped Delete Account, then all you have to do is go to the same page an sign in using the same ID; be sure Contacts is turned on.

My pc had crashed several months ago. I got it back up and running, however my itunes library with all the songs I purchased is gone. I still have all songs on my ipod. If I purchase new music from itunes and have it synced to my ipod will I lose all the music on my ipod? Also is there a way that itunes can reinstall my music to my library?

My laptop was stolen how can I re-sync my iphone to the new laptop without losing all of my data?
Hi to all,
I hope someone can help me. I know this question has been asked in various formats but I can't seem to find exactly what I am looking for, so please forgive me if this type of question is asked again.
My laptop was stolen a few months ago and I have finally been able to replace it. The common issue of course is that I can only sync it to one iTunes library at a time, which was on my laptop that some thief is currently enjoying the use of.
I don't have a lot of money so all of my backups were on the stolen laptop as I don't have an external hard drive. I understand you can authorize iTunes or the iPhone to go on upto 5 computers at a time?
As soon as I plugged in my phone (on the new laptop) I created a backup of everything on there using iTunes. I guess my question is, if I plug in my iphone and ask it to restore from back up, will it wipe the phone and replace it with the first back up on the new laptop or will it still delete everything altogether as the original content is not on the new laptop?
As much as it would be a pain, the music content is the least of my concern. It's more a case of making sure I keep my contacts, photos and purchases from the app store. I have read somewhere that you can transfer your purchases but I'm not sure how to do this.
I really hope someone can help and apologies for the repeat topic!
Thanks in advance to any who take the time to read and reply, I will appreciate any input/insight you may be able to provide.Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

My laptop was stolen. How do I sync my old iphone to a new computer without losing my purchases (music & apps)?
One of the reasons to include your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data that is kept separate from your laptop - not carried in the same case, etc.
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iDevice, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
If you are in the US, you can do this now as well.

My MBA was stolen. I need to buy a replacement the next day bec I used it for work. I downloaded the Find iPhone apps and registered my stolen MBA. If I will erase MAC will it also erase the data of my new MBA?
did you turn 'find my mac' ON your MBA BEFORE your it was stolen? if not, you will not be able to do anything to the stolen MBA
if you did turn it on before it was stolen, yes it will erase everything on the MBA -
Hey Everyone,
My apartment was broken into and my laptop was stolen which had my entire iTunes library. I have it all on my iPod Classic now which was with me at the time.
What do you suggest as the best tool to transfer the music FROM my iPod to to my new computer? I know there are some programs out there, what have you had success with?
My most important question is, is there a way to retain my library and especially playlists as it is (instead of copying over a massive bunch of songs)? Most of my music is from music blogs, mixtapes and underground artists so most of it cannot be found in the iTunes store.
Thanks for any help guys!

HT1727 My laptop was stolen and now I can't get my library back.
My laptop was stolen six months ago, and I just reinstalled iTunes on a new PC. I tried to login with my original username and password and got an error message, so I had to change my username and password. Now when I login, my libraries are empty. How can I get them back? Thanks.
Of course they are empty. Logging into iTunes has NEVER caused content to magically appear.
Use the backup of your computer to put everything back.
If your backup was also stolen, or for some foolish reason you never created a backup, it is possible to download past iTunes purchases. -
How can I authorize my new laptop when my old laptop was stolen and I am unable to deauthorize it? There are three other computers apparently on my account that I also am no aware of , nor do I have access to. I am unable to add any new computers to my account.
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. Otherwise you can "deauthorize all" from your iTunes account.
Open iTunes on a computer
From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required. -
I'm on vacation and my laptop was stolen. Is there a way to find my serial number without the original packaging? I bought those apple classes when I bought the laptop.
Sorry my error. It only shows the computer name not the serial number. Go with "themachead" response copied below:
In your Apple ID - Profiles:My Products if you filled it out. Not only that you might be able to, via Apple ID & iCloud sign up/in and activate find my Mac. If you have not activated iCloud you can do that too.
