IPhone :: Sync My 4 To A New Computer Without Restoring Settings And Deleting Everything?
Apr 21, 2012
I've just gotten a new desktop computer and I'd love to have my iPhone synced to it...but I cannot do that without "restoring" settings or erasing my current library to sync to this new library. The problem is I have absolutely nothing on this new computer and I do not wish to delete anything on my phone... what's the best way to go about this without losing any of my notes, photos, contacts, apps etc? I accidentally restored my iphone last year and it was horrible trying to get everything back on it, I just don't really want to do that again! I'm thinking I could possibly back up to iCloud and then erase my current library and start from there, but I'm very paranoid about losing my contacts and my photos! Also I just visited the iCloud website and I couldn't figure out how to access my photos on there.

So like, I have iTunes on this computer that has the perfect back up for my iPhone, but it can't connect to any internets so I can't restore it. Is there a way for me to get that backup file and stuff and put it on a flash drive so I can put it on a different computer that can connect to internet and back up my phone?
And yeah I tried using these file destinations;
On Windows XP: Documents and Settings(username)Application DataApple ComputerMobileSyncBackup
On Windows Vista and Windows 7: Users(username)AppDataRoamingApple ComputerMobileSyncBackup
But I had no luck in finding anything after (username). Like, I don't have 'Application Data' or 'AppData' as a folder on my computer.
Any help would be a lifesaver, seriously.

I just changed my old iPhone 4 to iPhone 4s. I made back up regularly so I had no problems in retrieving my contacts and applications but I can't restore my photos/videos. I don't think I made the back up for this because I don't know how. I did transfer the photos/videos manually to my computer (without using iTunes) but I don't know how to restore them to my new iPhone. I've searched for this topic and found several discussions but I don't think I understand. Someone said that I should look under 'Device' and see what's there. When I connect my iPhone to my PC and iTunes comes up, on the left window under 'Device' there are 'Music', 'Movies', and 'TV Shows', but no 'Photos'.
I don't lost my photos, they're there in my computer, in a folder that I created for the back up. It's just I don't know how to send them back.

I follow the steps provided here: iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled. I connect my iPhone 4s to my computer and select the "Restore iPhone..." option and then select "Restore and Update" after I get a pop-up. Then iTunes says "Extracting software" and after that completes it gives me an error:Â
The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred(3004). Also keep in mind that I am doing this to get rid of a passcode so I cannot access the iPhone directly. I am running Windows 7 32-bit SP1. I have the latest version of iTunes.Â

When copying wav files to the iPhone4 it always compressed to AAC automatically. After a restore to original settings it now copies the wav files uncompressed. Import is set to AAC but it makes no difference. iTunes 10.5.3.3. Have the same issue with iPod Touch.

I have been trying to restore my iPhone for about 12 hours now, and I'm about to pull my hair out if it doesn't work soon. The restore to factory settings goes fine, and then when I begin to set it up, it first gives me trouble activating it, but I just press continue when it says it hasn't been activated and a few minutes later I have signal. The next problem arises when I try and restore it from a iCloud backup. I have tried 3 different back ups, all 3 have given me the same problem. They say there is anywhere from 15-45 hours remaining, and it gets stuck at about a centimeter along the progress bar of the restoring settings part. I have not been able to get past this. Quite a few times it has said that my internet connection failed and I'll need to restart the restore. I know this most likely isn't true because I'll be on the computer at that exact point and not have an issue with the computer. I also have a very stable internet connection, and very fast. When I have done restores in the past it took about five minutes.

For example does it delete personal files from the phone memory? does this affect the mass memory?

I usually have my whole iPhone (4S) synced on my iMac desktop. I decided to sign into my iTunes account on my MacBook. I bought the movie Alice in Wonderland and it successfully downloaded to the MacBook. I tried to sync my phones info to the MacBook too but everytime I check off the box to sync movies it says "Are you sure you want to sync movies (apps, contacts, ibooks etc)? All existing movies and their data on "First Name Last Name's" libray will be replaced with movies on this library." This is a problem because there is no movies other than Alice in Wonderland on my MacBook's iTunes library. So, how can I get this darn movie onto my iPhone 4S w/o deleting anything current on my iPhone!?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

Due to much meddling of my own my N900 is now in a very interesting (mostly usable) state. I was wondering if there is a simple way I can attach my device to my computer and restore it to factory defaults (software wise). Reflashing the device does [i]not[/i] restore all default settings. I want to remove all user added/edited files as well as restore the default partition layout of the device.

I have an iPhone 3gs 32gb. Lately when I sync the phone it will delete some photos and then pop up a message saying some photos and albums couldn't be synced because there is not enough room on the phone. The problem is that I'm not adding anything to my phone when it does this. Yesterday my phone says it had 1.6gb available. I hooked it up and synced it, not adding anything, and it deleted a full album off the phoe claiming it had no space. Anyone have any ideas on a fix for this? I'm running 3.1.2
