New laptop with old iPhone

I just got a new laptop, and I was curious what will happen to my phone when i decide to sync it with my new laptop?

moopher,
It will see it as the first time you have synced with that computer and ask you if you want to merge the data on the computer with that on the iPhone, or if you want to have either the computer or the iPhone replace the other's information.
You can also tell it to sync that way by reseting Sync History.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

  • Using new Mac with old Iphone formerly used with Windows

    I had my Iphone synced with a PC that literally burned up unexpectedly. I replaced it with a Mac and want to sync my phone, however, when I click to manage content manually, a message pops up telling me that my phone will be erased (!!). Because I have lots of music and apps on the phone, I don't want to go back to square one. What do I need to do to make the new computer work with my phone?
    When I rip music from a CD, I can't drag the album to the phone; I have to copy them manually.
    Also, I used to be able to rearrange icons on my phone via Itunes and that doesn't work either with the Mac. I have "authorized" the phone, but it didn't make any difference in anything.

    I think you have to reformat the phone for a mac.

  • HT1386 How do I sync library on new computer with old iPhone

    When I bought my iPhone, I was required by my company to sync with my work computer.  Of course, by iTunes library is on my home computer.
    I am no longer with the company so I do not have access to that computer.  Now I want to sync my iPhone with my home computer so I can have my songs on the iPhone.  I have not figured out how to do that.  Is it simply a matter of resetting the iPhone?  Any other way?  Help is appreciated!  Thanks.

  • Adapter - New lightning dock with old iphone

    Hi all
    I have new speakers with an iPhone 5 dock / lightning adapter.
    I'd like to use my old iPhone 4 or iPod 3 to play music on this device.
    I can see plenty of adapters out there that transfer from the old connector to the lightning connector, but are there any adapters out there that transfer from the new lightning connector to the old?
    Thanks

    I have been using Sync plugin with my Firefox 3.6 installation. Now I am moving to a new laptop with Firefox 4. How do I import the synced entries from Firefox 3.6 to Firefox 4?

    Hi!
    You have 2 options. If you decide to use Firefox Sync to do it, follow the instructions described here: [[How to sync Firefox settings between computers]]
    The other option is to do it manually. To do so, you need to migrate the profile. Follow this steps: [[Backing up your information]]

  • How can i transfer my Ipad Library and Apps to a new laptop - my old one died

    How can i transfer my Ipad Library and Apps to a new laptop - my old laptop died before i could backup my library to an external hardrive

    You will need to do this via iTunes to start with as you need to copy your iTunes files to the new computer.
    If you have everything on your iPad you can select "transfer purchases..." when plugging your iPad into your new computer and in iTunes (right/ctrl click the iPad icon) after telling iTunes to not sync this iPad.
    Once the items are in the new iTunes then when it asks if you wish to sync to this new iTunes your items will be copied to the iPad again.
    However if you do not have all iTunes items on your iPad, then you will need to follow the instructions on to move iTunes first, then deal with your iPad.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • I bought a new laptop with Windows 7. My computer name in Windows has changed, and now, my Ipad can't find Itunes

    I bought a new laptop with Windows 7. My computer name in Windows has changed, and now, my Ipad can't find Itunes, and Itunes can't find my Ipad. [email protected]

    Ok, if reinstalling iTunes as suggested above does not resolve the issue of iTunes recognising the iPad then try this -
    Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    Thirdly, make sure your lead /connections are no faulty.
    Fourthly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
    As for making your new laptop your 'home computer' follow these instructions -
    1. Without connecting your iPad to your computer -
    A) Install iTunes / make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed.
    B) Go to the Store tab and click on "Authorise This Computer".
    C) Go to Edit, click on Preferences [iTunes and Preferences on Macs] and click on Devices. Put a check mark in the box next to "Prevent  iPods/iPhones/iPads from syncing automatically". Click OK and close iTunes.
    2.  Connect your iPad to your computer -
    A) Start iTunes (it will not start automatically because of the action at 1(C) above).
    B) Right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select "Transfer purchases".
    C) When the transfer has completed, right click on your iPad again and select "Backup".
    D) When the backup has completed, left click on your iPad, click on the Apps tab, and put a check mark in the box next to "Sync Apps", and then click on "Apply" (bottom right).
    E) Unless you want to always do a manual sync (as I do), go back to Edit, Preferences [iTunes and Preferences on Macs] and uncheck the box next to "Prevent your iPod.....".
    F) Finally, on your iPad, check that everything is syncing properly. If not, go back to iTunes and check all settings.
    NB You should not lose any apps. However, any 'purchased' missing apps can be downloaded again FOC. As with updates, this must be done with the Apple ID under which they were originally 'purchased'.

    I think you mean Photoshop CS2.  Photoshop 2 is from around 1992.  The old Adobe activation servers were taken down. CS2 is about a decade old Adobe made a new download for old customers that legal customers can download and install. Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products

  • Loading CS2 from laptop with Windows XP to new laptop with Windows 7

    Hello, I just purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 on it, and am wondering if I can install my CS2 software onto it. I had it on my old laptop which had Windows XP. I don't see
    Windows 7 on my installation CDs as an OS I can use the software with. Not wanting to buy all new as I am a novice user, not a professional graphics person. Can I
    load this version on my new laptop?

    This has been a problem since purchased new about 8 months ago. It takes 5+ minutes just to boot up the toshibia.
    The short answer is that you should have returned the computer immediately.
    Just to make certain it's not due to software, restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. See the instructions in the section Recovering the Internal Storage Drive, which begins on p. 62 of the User's Guide.
