Synching Iphone/Ipad after reinstalling ITunes

Hi There,
My laptop hard drive just died and I have replaced it and reinstalled all programs.  My music was back up and re-installed as well.  I plugged in my Iphone to my laptop but I am afraid to synch it with the new itunes.  Will I lose all the data from my phone?  My music shows in the library but my playlists and apps are not currently shown.  Any advice before I hit synch q

If the playlists and apps are not showing in the library, then the library was not restored.
What specifically was backed up and restored in regards to the library?  Was it the ENTIRE iTunes folder or simply the iTunes Media/Music folder?  If the former, everything is as it was prior to replacing the drive.  If it's the later, well you'll be creating a new library unless you still have access to the old drive.

  • HT4061 How to restore my ipad after downloading itunes?

    How to restore my ipad after downloading itunes?

    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring:
    Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
    Back up your device.
    Transfer and sync content to your computer.
    Restoring your iOS device
    Connect your device to your computer.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. Select the Summary tab, and click the Restore button.
    Click Restore.
    After a restore, the iOS device restarts. You should then see "Slide to set up". Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant.
    If needed, restore your device from a previous backup.
    If restoring does not finish successfully or if a restore error appears, see iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages.
    Additional Information
    If your device is continually restarting, not responding, or showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, place the device into recovery mode and try restoring again.
    Devices with cellular service should activate after a restore. If activation is not successfu, see the options below.
    Symptoms
    Your iPhone may display one of the following messages when you attempt to activate it:
    "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
    "The iPhone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service."
    "iTunes was unable to verify your device."
    Resolution
    Perform the following steps if you receive one of the messages above:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to Wi-Fi if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Applefor assistance.

    Yes but there's no point doing it here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear this is a User to User forum. It's Users like you talking to other Users. It's not a channel to communicate with Apple.

  • Ipod will not show up after reinstalling itunes

    Hi all,
    I just replaced my hard drive and of course I lost my itunes library. After reinstalling itunes onto a new drive (Win XP), and attaching my ipod, my ipod does not show up. Itunes finds new hardware and brings up the library, but that's all. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another USB port and computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    When I plug it in, it asks to trust the computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I have tried different usb ports and turning off the firewall.It was working ok til the latest itunes update.

    Did you click on Trust? What happens when you do? When you removed and uninstalled iTunes, did you use this support document and follow the instructions exactly? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
