The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is oen way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
Was your backup copy of your computer stolen as well? If not, then use it to put everything back

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your device for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

my house had a break-in, laptop was stolen and the thief is connected now to my skype!
how can i get the IP address, isn't there some option like in gmail i can see who besides me is connected to the account right now?

I think you can consider reporting this matter to your local police. Then they can contact Skype to request for possible information or assistance. Skype will only provide sensitive information such us user's IP address to the proper law enforcement bodies.

My laptop was stolen but "Find My Mac" has located it. Now how do I get it back?

Hi All,
Early this morning, a friend of mine called me to tell me her laptop was stolen. She asked me to help her track it using iCloud find my mac. The theives also stole her wallet and other things from her car so this isn't something that was just misplaced and an innocent person came across it. My question is, now that I know where it is (within a couple hundred feet vicinity) what is the best approach I can use to get this back for my friend? She's got years of family pictures and does not have the laptop backed up so this is very important to her. Any ideas?
It shows the laptop around 4200 S Wade Way (about 3260 w), West Valley City, Ut
Please, any advise would help!
Thanks,
Caleb

Well, I did contact the police with all this information. They actually went to one of the houses with me (the one on the corner) and it was an old man who was very polite who lived at home alone and didn't seem like the type. Instead of knocking on the other doors with me, the police said, "Your locating program is probably just wrong and it's not here." he wouldn't knock on any other doors so I plan on going tomorrow morning and knocking but the chances of anyone confessing are slim so I don't know what approach to go at with them. I don't know why find my mac doesn't let you leave a message like find my iPhone because I would leave a message saying "this mac has been misplaced. If you return it, the owner will reward you with $500 without pressing charges or asking how you came across the laptop. Please call -------, but, no. All I can do is knock. lol

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 and all my music is on my iPod Classic. How can I transfer it to my new computer and keep the playlists and such?

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!
Vlad.

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.

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.

Laptop was stolen and I don't have serial numbers written down for police.

I had some one take my laptop while I was away from the house. I know I registered the laptop, is there a way I could find out my past information? I mean, find out what the serial numbers were by entering my name? Anything would be helpful.
JJ

Actually, the serial number is recorded on the original box from Apple that housed the iPad when it was first sold.
Anyway, here is what you should do:

HT1420 My Laptop was stolen and I am unable to deauthorize it. How can I deauthorize computers I no longer have access to?

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.
