IPhone :: Re-sync To Reformatted Computer Without Wiping Data
Jun 7, 2012
My laptop had an unexpected failure and had to be reformatted. My iphone was synced to the itunes that was installed on it.
I have reformatted and reinstalled itunes on the machine now and would like to be able to manage my iphone music on it again. However I am unable to do so. Checking the "manually manage music" option results in being told that to do this I will have to reformat my iphone.
I don't want to reformat my iphone. How can I use my iphone with this computer and itunes, manually managing music, without reformatting it?
Info:
iPhone 3GS (8GB), iOS 5.1.1

I can't sync my iPhone and back up my data with my computer because iTunes says to enter the passcode into my iPhone to unlock it, but I am unable to unlock and enter in my passcode on my iPhone because the screen is shattered. I have my replacement iPhone with me and I'm not going to activate it until I can sync/get the data from my broken iPhone. I have the envelope to send my broken iPhone back to the Verizon store or whatever so that's not a problem. I just can't sync my old iPhone with my computer.

My computer crashed and we lost the hard drive. I did back up to carbonite, but essentially it is like having a whole new computer. I need to sync my phone to my restored / rebuilt mac, but the phone will think I am syncing to a brand new computer. How do I prevent loosing the following;
1) Photo's taken on my phone.
2) Contact's on my phone
3) Calenderon my phone
My iTunes library should be OK, and I'm assuming my app's will be too. If not couldn't I just download the purchases again?

I want to sell my phone, and was wondering if the proper thing to do is wipe my phone, activate it, and THEN remove the SIM card. Or do I only have to wipe it and remove the SIM card and not worry about activation?

I was trying to back up my phone with the blackberry desktop manager. I kept entering my password (I couldn't remember exactly what it was, so I went online and reset it for the last attempt). I got the email confirmation that it was reset, so I entered the new, reset password. It said it was wrong anyway and started wiping my device. EVERYTHING -- all my contacts, all my sms, all my work emails, everything. I popped out the battery when it was at about 6% of the wiping process but whenever I turn it back on it starts wiping again.how can I stop this? It is my phone, I entered the correct password, I only wanted to back up my data and now I'm losing everything instead.

I recently purchased a blackberry 8320 from a friend it was giving some problems like: Cant setup own email account, bis moves slow, msn gives and error.So i decided to do a handheld wipe then after the wipe finished i did a battery pull and then i stop reciving service books like the phone was locked down or something. I called my service provider (Digicel Jamaica) then told me to re-register the HRT which i did before many times and a number of battery pulls and nothing happen so i deiced to post this in the forums and see if i could get any help with these issues

Basically there is a way somehow to reset a phone when locked and give the holder FULL access to my mobile account. Where is the security in that? I have also lost all my details while I'm on holiday and need the remote connectivity most! Can I ever trust Nokia again or did I do something to make my phone self destruct?

It took me a while, but I have come to live with Ubuntu on my Laptop and with Android on my work phone.I love the Symbian functionality on my old personal N5800 and didn't have too much trouble translating to the new Android at work.I want to upgrade my private phone to a Nokia model, but when I had a play with the Windows ones at the shop, I was disappointed at how naff they seem.I don't want to learn yet another OS and TBH, it just looked too wrong. I trust the Nokia hardware, I'd trust it with my life, but the OS sucks.Is there a way of reformatting the phone to Android. I'd even pay to de-license the Windows OS?

I have looked around online a bunch, even went to the apple store for answers on this, and still nothing.I had a MBP, its dead, i got a new one, its awesome. but now i want to sync my iphone with this new computer, I plug the phone in, it all works and everything, but if i click "sync" on any of the check boxes in say, music. apps. rungtones. etc it says it will delete the data on my phone and replace it with the data on that itunes.
Is there a way for me to jsut transfer all my **** off the iphone so it syncs with that? this is getting really annoying.The guy in the genius bar told me to backup my phone, then restore it using itunes and that iTunes would then allow me ot sync everyhting without first deleting all the information, tried that, and it didnt work, itunes just said the same message about deleteing all my applications and data and blah blah blah.no i dont have the library from the old computer to use as a reference to copy files from.

So I just bought a new laptop and I want to be able to have all of my iPhone data on the laptop (music, apps, contacts, photos, etc).How do I transfer all of this? I've tried Google but theres about 30 different ways and none of them are quite specific.Btw my new laptop is a PC, not a Mac. And I want to transfer all of my data from a PC.

Well, like the title says, my old computer unexpectedly crashed. I lost all data I had on that sucker including my itunes data. Now that I have a new computer, I installed itunes and I'm wondering is there anyway for me to copy all the data from the iPhone to the new iTunes library?I don't wanna test my luck by just syncing it, fearing it might just delete everything in my phone...

Nothing else has changed but the update was made yesterday, I have turned my phone off and on a couple of times, tried turning the WiFi on and off, restarted my computer, tried 3 USB Cables, but nothing. I have two screen shots attached of progress bar and error message received. Sync Session Fails to Start?
