Sync information from Iphone to Macbook Pro?

Recently my Macbook pro was stolen from me and I just recently got a new one. My Iphone has all of my song's and what not's on it and I want to transfer them to m new Macbook. I know if I plug in my Iphone to my Macbook and it sync's it, I will lose everything. I don't want that, I want to sync all my song's from my phone to my laptop. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

The sync process for iTunes content is a one way transfer process only, and the same for photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
Your iTunes library on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data - the iTunes named folder located in your Music folder.
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, 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.
Before syncing contacts with the Address Book and calendar events with iCal, enter one contact in the Address Book and one calendar event in iCal on your Mac. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.

  • How do I sync contacts from iPhone to macbook pro OSX 10.9.4?

    I wish to transfer my contacts from my iPhone to my macbook pro. I use system 10.9.4. Apparently I have to use iCloud.

    You can sync contacts from between your iPhone and Mac using iCloud.
    Setup instructions >  Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Apple gives you 5GB's of free storage.
    You can also sync Safari bookmarks, photos, calendars, and more >  iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview

  • How do i Sync Notes from iPhone to MacBook Pro?

    In Lion I connected my iPhone to my MacBook Pro and then it auto sync Notes to my e-mail account.
    Now after I got Mountain Lion it's not auto sync of Notes anymore and I wonder what I must do to achieve this?
    What's on Notes today are old notes that I had before I'v got the Mountain Lion.
    I'm not excited to go via iCloud, but if there is another detour I have to bite the sour apple.

    If you dont mind me asking, why dont you wnt to do this with iCloud (it couldnt be any easier) -System preferences/icloud/ check Notes.

  • How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?

    How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?
    Hi,  Does anyone know how to do this without the need for me to upgrade to Lion on my MAcBook Pro and use the iCloud?
    I put all my contacts into my iPhone and I'd like them now on my MAcBook Pro.
    Thanks,

    Click on your iDevice on the sidebar of iTunes and then go to the info tab at the top. check the box shown here:
    This will put the contacts from an iDevice to the computer. You can then check the same box on the (let's say iPad) that doens't have any contacts and they will go from your comp to your iPad.

  • How can I transfer information from my older MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro?

    How can I transfer information information from my older MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro? Does anyone have an answer because I spoke to 2 people at Apple & both sent me the wrong cables.....

    Did they mention Migration Assistant?  You can use MA with FireWire, limit is the speed of the older unit.  MA will guide you and allow you to choose what to transfer.

  • What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?

    What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?  I've been having to key in changes to both devices because sync doesn't sync. 

    If you really are running Mac OS X 10.7.5 and iOS 6.1.3, you should be able to sync through iTunes, but in current releases you need to use a central contact service like iCloud.
    Did you have it working and then not working, or have you never had it working?
    Are you trying to use iTunes, iCloud, or something else?

  • HT204144 File transfer using Airdrop from iphone to Macbook Pro

    File transfer using airdrop form Macbook Pro to iphone is working...but from iphone to Macbook Pro is not working, Why?

    Hi Brok25;
    Thanks for the question.  The resource below explains the specs and settings that are needed for AirDrop.  Check the settings and look to see if your MacBook Pro is listed.
    Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203106
    Sending files to and from an older Mac
    If a Mac you're using with AirDrop was manufactured before 2012, you can send and receive files with other Mac computers.
    On the sending Mac, click "Don't see who you're looking for" in the AirDrop window.
    Select the option to "Search for an Older Mac."
    On the receiving Mac, open a new Finder window and click AirDrop in the sidebar.
    Tips for sending files
    Make sure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled on your Mac and your iOS device. Although you don't have to connect to a specific network, Wi-Fi needs to be on to send and receive files using AirDrop.
    Move your devices closer together. AirDrop is designed to work within a range of approximately 30 feet (9 meters). If you need to send a file to someone farther away, consider using File Sharing, iCloud, or email instead.
    If you're using a firewall on your Mac, you won't be able to receive AirDrop files if you have enabled "Block all incoming connections" in the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences.
    Make sure your devices meet system requirements for AirDrop.
    System Requirements
    To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
    In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
    your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector 
    your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
    your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
    Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network. 
    To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.
    MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
    MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
    iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
    *The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
    For help identifying your Mac, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu. You can refer to the Apple Support website to find out if your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch includes a lightning connector. 
    Cheers,
    - Judy

  • Transferring music from iPhone to MacBook Pro

    I  just bought a new macbook pro and went to transfer my music from my iPhone to the new iTunes, and only half transferred. The other half are in the iTunes music section but are not highlighted. Help?

    The iphone is not a backup device.
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases.
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • Importing contacts from iPhone to MacBook Pro's address book

    Do I need to download and install iTunes onto my MacBook Pro, in order to transfer contacts from my iPhone into my MacBook Pro's address book? If I simply plug my iPhone into my MacBook Pro's USB port, is there a way to get it to sync to my address book? Or do I need to first install iTunes; as is the case for syncing to Outlook running under Windows?

    You need iTunes (it should already be on your MBP, though!).
    Also, if your goal is to transfer the contacts from the iPhone to the computer, you must have at least one new contact in the MBP's Address Book app. If it's empty, the contacts on the phone will be wiped. Create a new (dummy) contact, then sync the iPhone and you'll be prompted to Merge or Replace the data - choose the Merge option.

  • Syncing contacts from iphone to macbook

    I cannot figure out how to sync my contacts from my iphone to my macbook pro. There is not an option to sync contacts when i open itunes and plug in my phone. There is also no option to import contacts when i open the contacts app on my computer. Please help!! I need to get my contacts on my computer so that I can transfer them into a numbers (excel) file.

    I haven't used the following and it looks like it would cost you $3.99 to try it but may be worth a try. Hopefully someone else will respond with a free method. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/export-address-book/id402323447?mt=12
