Transferring iPhone 4 and to iTunes on new computer

I have new laptop. My iTunes was originally setup on my desktop where I connected my iPhone.
When I connect my iPhone4 to that new iTunes on my laptop will the data from that iPhone transfer to iTunes on my new computer?

Music purchased on the iPhone can be transferred to the computer, but ripped music that was copied to the phone cannot be. Also, playlists created on the computer will not be copied back.

    Hi
    I had a iPhone 4 and then got a new computer, I installed iTunes to it but my new computer refused to sync with my phone, i backed up my phone via icloud and purchased tracks etc from iTunes, but now i have a new iPhone 5C and I backed it up via the icloud, not all data was transfered, music etc.
    Again my computer will not sync with the new phone, it doesnt see the phone within my libary, doesn't give an option to do any thing with phone
    Can so one please let me know were Kim going wrong, I have authorized my computer to itunes I really don't know what to do now?

    Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
    Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.
    To save the photographs you may have to use third party software. Google is your friend.

  • I have an Iphone 3G and have bought a new computer.

    How do I port over my Iphone and its content to the new computer? For some reason it does not appear to be straight forward as I would think it would be

    Using a windows PC you will need to Install iTunes on the new machine, Authorise the copy of iTunes on your new computer.
    Then copy the information Music/Movies etc... from the old one onto the new one by CD/DVD/EX-HDD etc...
    Make sure you have one contact in the Address book and Contact list on your new machine.
    Then connect the iPhone, it will give you a warning about deleting all the information on the device this is fine assuming you have transferred all your music and everything across properly prior to this.
    When it comes to syncing contacts/calendars make sure to choose the Merge option so it combines the contacts and calendars on the new computer with those on the iPhone meaning you don't lose any of this information 9which is whay it is important to have those bogus contacts which you can delete later)

    P.S.
    I think on that link to the thread supplied i was talking about transferring it over on Mac computers so the migration assistant and stuff doesn't apply here.
    Note:
    As with anything on a computer i would recommend you also backup all your information before hand in case the you know what hits the fan, just so your covered.
    Oh and if your not going to use your old computer and the iTunes copy on it remembering you can only sync the iPhone to one iTunes library at a time remember to de-authorise the old machine after everythings been synced up properly on your new machine

  • How do I preserve my iPads and iPhones settings and apps on a new computer?

    I want to wipe my computer and install a fresh version of the lion operating system. The only thing I want preserved are my iTunes library and preferences, and my iPhoto library and preferences. Basically, I want my iPhone and iPad to be able to sync on this new operating system and still have the exact same home screen layouts, app preferences, and music files. I have my iPhone and iPad backing up on iCloud now but I don't know if that backs up app documents too.
    If somebody could enlighten me on this subject, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks :-)

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

    I just purchased a new iphone 4s and opened itune store and purchased a ringtone.  Today I tried to open itune store again and it won't run the app.
    I pushed the itune store icon and it opens and promptly closes. I tried multiple times.  How can I fix this?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings

    Have a PowerBook G4 with software 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.  Got a new iPhone 5 - and seems iTunes does not recognize it. What kind of software update(s) do I need?

    None. An iPhone 5 requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to be synced from a Mac, which is above the maximum for a PowerBook G4(10.5.8.)

  • My old computer ( PC) crashed and I have a new PC now but I want to start synching my contactings and stuff onto my new computer. Itunes says it must wipe my iphone before it can synch. Is there a way to keep my contacts?

    Create a dummy contact on your new PC in Outlook.  In iTunes, elect to synch your contacts with Outlook.  You will be prompted to "merge" your contacts.  Once done and all your contacts are on your computer in Outlook, you can delete the "dummy" contact.

  • I have a new computer and want to sync my Iphone and Ipad2 to the new computer, is there an easy way to do this?

    I have a new computer and want to sync my Iphone and Ipad2 to the new computer (PC) instead of the old one, is there an easy way to do this?

    Extract from one of our senior participant.
    Syncing with new computer
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

    I am so sorry I am frustrating you. This is the first time I have used this community and am leanring as I go. I am not able to see the entire post that you leave, unless I look at it on my phone (email)--I am so sorry. You have no idea how much i appreciate your help. Yes, I see that I can get the later version of OS software, but its not availabe for immediate download. My only options appear to be having it shipped, or going to the store to purchase. And if you know of another way that I can access all of my itunes library music on my new phone withouth using itunes, I would love to hear about it.--thanks and again i am so sorry for frustrating you.

    Hi,
    don´t be worry, this would not be a problem.
    You have to take the same Aplle ID on both devices, then you can sync them via iTunes by using all universal apps on each device, create playlists, albums and all the things you need and sync it, no problem...
