Sync old photos to new itunes

i have a iphone that was synced to another computer ... it died... so now i have photos on my iphone that i want to put on my new macbook pro... but when i sync it comes up with this...
This iPhone contains photos synced with another photo library or folder. Photos and albums on “Todd Matherne’s iPhone” will be replaced with photos and albums from this computer. Photos taken with “Todd Matherne’s iPhone” will not be affected.
do i want to do this or will i loose my photos on my phone

did this solve it?
I have slightly different problem...
I have just upgraded my iphone 4 to have the 5 OS thingy and the album that I transfered to the phone when i got it, which had old pix and some camera photo's is now gone leaving just the iphone album.
when i go back in to the photo tab and tick transfer photo's and "apply"  it comes up with the exact same message you had Todd.
Will it delete the old transfer album or delete all 450 photos I have taken on the phone?
Hoping it will just replace the old album???!!!!!
HELP!!

  • SYNCING OLD LIBRARY TO NEW ITUNES

    recently had our computer guy clean up our laptop and im getting a popup that reads "you're ipod is synced with another itunes library. do you want to erase this ipos and sync with this itunes library. An ipos can only be synced with one itunes library at a time. erasing and syncing relpaces the contents of this ipos with the contents of this itunes library" My options are to erase and sync or cancel. Does that mean I am going to lose the songs i already have in there because the new itunes is empty? help!

    You want to get everything off the iPod and back into your new iTunes library.

  • Syncing old iPod to new iTunes

    I have an iPod 40G click wheel, which is full of music. My iBook died this summer and I had to get the hard drive replaced.
    I heard that if you hook your iPod (with music) up to your computer which has an iTunes program with a blank library, that the iPod gets wiped out because iTunes automatically syncs its contents into the iPod.
    I want to do the opposite. I want to transfer all the stuff on my iPod into my empty iTunes. Is this possible? How do I do it?

  • ITunes was on a drive destroyed by virus; how can i sync my iPod with new iTunes on new computer without losing my old library? There is no backup iTunes/iPod files available.

    how can i sync my iPod with new iTunes on new computer without losing my old library? There is no backup iTunes/iPod files available.

    If you connect your ipod to your computer then look in the hidden folder labeled "iPod_Control" . (This is on a Mac version, but i think it's the same for Windows) and in "Music" is all your music mixed up in different folders. Just drag the MUSIC folder onto itunes then BAM! It's done ;D

  • How do you sync all photos to new ipad

    how do I sync all photos to new ipad?  I did a restore to copy apps and setting.  Then did a sync. Music is synced and all apps appear to have their data.  But there are only 2 photo albums.

    All photo albums have to reside in iTunes to be synced.  They are then synced up to your IOS device when you slect apply..
    You need to go to your iTunes device photo tab and select the Itunes photo albums you want uploaded and then tap apply in the lower right corner.
    Cheers

  • Old iPOD to new iTunes on new computer to new nano.  Is this possible

    I have an old iPOD and I have a new nano and new computer.   I want to get music from old iPOD to new iTunes on new computer to new nano.  Is this possible

    Yes.  You'll want to copy all the content from the older iPod back to your new iTunes library first.  Once you have successfully copied and stored all of this content in your new iTunes library, you can set it up to sync to your new Nano.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • HT1589 How to keep old music onto new itunes

    I brought a new computer (Windows), downloaded itunes, and now I have no songs on this itunes. How do i sync my songs that are in my iphone onto the itunes without losing my old songs? When i try syncing it states that it will erase all my content on my iphone and sync it to my new itunes.
    Help?

    The ipod is not a backup/storage device.  the sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • HT4623 how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.

    There is no Info tab in Mavericks

    If you transfer any iTunes content to the iPhone from an iTunes library on another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first with a warning message provided indicating this beforehand.
    Authorize the different computer with your Apple ID with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, right click on the iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Transfer Purchases. This will transfer all apps on your iPhone to the iTunes library.

  • Linking old ipods to new itunes account and syncing songs

    does anyone have any idea how???

    It is an ipod from an account I had on a desktop that is no longer in use.  I downloaded many songs from itunes but transferred most from CDs I owned.  We moved to another state, and for the first 9 months, I used my ipod infrequently and never added any songs.  Then I got an iphone.  I mostly used Pandora.  I ran a 5K without satellite service, hence, no music, so I decided it was time to download my own music to my phone.  I could not remember my itunes account and it was linked to an email address that was with my cable/internet provider in the prior state.  So, I started a new itunes account. I've been running happy since until I decided to train for a marathon and I discovered that my iPHONE battery will not last all 26.2 miles.  And there is NO way I can do that without music.  So, back to my ipod.  I would love to add more music and create a playlist that is strictly fast paced music so I won't have to fast forward while running, BUT...I can not get the 2 to link up.  I can't transfer the new songs on to the ipod, or the old songs on to the computer.  I have tried to authorize this computer, but again, I can not remember the password.  It also sends the info to my old email address which is no longer valid.   There are 691 songs on the IPOD, erasing them all and starting again will take up too much time.  I leave tomorrow to fly to dc at 11 am.
