IPhone 4s :: Sync With New Computer Without Losing Music And Books
Jun 5, 2014
The harddrive on my old computer died. Now when I try to sync my iPhone to the new computer, I get a message saying that my iPhone will be overwritten with the library on the computer. This wouldn't be a problem except my iPhone contains songs and books that are not showing up in the computer library. How do I get my iPhone registered to the new computer without losing music and books?

I have a new computer and have backed up iPhone and restored it from my computer. However, when I go to sync apps it appears as if it will overwrite my current folder settings. I don't want to have to re-arrange 140 apps into folders again.

i've got multiple devices that were all synced to my school macbook, which is running snow
leopard 1.6.8 and itunes 10, but it was wiped and all the content on it was deleted.
I was just wondering if it was possible to sync my 3 iphones and ipad to the computer
again without losing all my items on the devices...
Thanks

My wife's iphone was tied to a laptop iTunes library. The laptop's hard drive died some time ago, and she has since refused to update the iOS version or sync the phone with another computer, for fear of losing access to the considerable amount of non-iTunes MP3s that were formerly on her laptop, and are now only stored on her iPhone.
So my question is twofold:
1) Can I update the iOS for her without syncing the itunes library on the phone? She is currently running iOS 3.1.3 (7E18). If I can update it, how do I do so safely?
2) Is there any way to set up a new iTunes library on her new laptop without destroying the music library she already has on the phone?
My goal would be to simply get the iOS version and iTunes database up to the latest version, so we can subscribe her to the iCloud service and back up all her music.

I have an 8350i on Nextel and i have loaded OS 5 onto it. (a little background incase you arent aware.. Nextel has not yet released OS 5 but SouthernLinc has and ive been using SouthernLincs version of it for the 8350i for about a month or so with NO issues) I really dont want to have to reload my OS back to 4.6 as there are some major upgrades on 5.0 for the 8350i. You guys think it might be that im running OS 5? I also have the "Boostberry" configuration (aka i have a normal nextel data plan instead of a bb plan) ive had this for about 6 months atleast now without any troubles. So 3 times over the week or so ive turned on my device and had it "register with the network" then i go to compose a sms message or place a call and i get service book not found errors. I reload the service books and it works great for a few days then it happens again. You think its because of running Southernlincs OS 5 thats just not causing me issues or any other ideas of what it may be?? I dont want to downgrade back to 4.6 and spend an hour loading everything just to find out that wasnt my issue.

using iTunes, you can only use one computer to sync things such as music. The computer that I was previously using with syncing died on me and now that I am on a new one it says that I have to erase everything on my iPhone just to put one mixtape on it which is complete BS. So I ask you Apple, iTunes support, or whoever, why?

I have always synced my iphone to my husband's PC since that has always been our music storage machine, but would like to sync to my macbook. I've set up itunes Match on both machines and downloaded our music to my mac - mostly itunes purchased or uploaded from CD. I hit sync and agreed to have it wipe the contents from the other computer and sync with my mac. When I do, it only copies about 100 of 1000 songs, saying it couldn't copy the others. It referred me back to itunes to find out the issue, but I couldn't find any explanation in my itunes for the problem. (The missing songs show up greyed out in the playlists on my phone). When I'm trying to set up playlists for the fitness classes.

Someone told me that I can add songs to the purchased folder in itunes on my computer, and then download them on my iphone. I tried it once before a while ago and did not think it worked. However, earlier today I noticed a song that used to not be on my iphone, and now it is. Then I remembered that it was the song I had used to attempt to put music on my iphone via the purchased folder. The thing is, I can't figure out how I did it.

I've been looking for help with this for weeks now and i can't find a bit of it anywhere. I wanted to put music on my phone so i went out and bought a micro sd card and tried to load music onto it using a usb to connect to my phone. I've tried literally just about everything. I switched over to USB Mass Storage mode and created a music folder and etc, etc,. But even after i put a couple of songs on the thing my phone still says there's nothing there. I also tried doing the Nokia Ovi Suite thing and apparently my phone model isn't compatible with it. I'm completely surprised by the lack of support from the manufacturing website.

I've got an iPhone 5 64GB, with iOS 8.1.1 (updated since this problem occurred, so it was using the previous version). I'm using it with iTunes 12.0.1.26 on a Windows 7 computer. Recently I synched my phone with iTunes (admittedly for the first time in a while), and noticed that most of the epub books in ibooks on the phone were missing. On opening iTunes I found that a lot of the books were in iTunes, but that for some reason only a few of the books had been selected to sync. I selected all of them and solved that problem. However, there were one or two books which I had downloaded directly with my phone, which do not appear on the phone or my PC. How to recover them?

Since I updated to 5.1 on my iPhone 3Gs, I keep getting problems with the updated OS. I can't download apps, music or books from the iTunes store, it's very hit and miss. It is pointless having a pin upon wake up of the phone as all you have to do to get past the pin is by swiping the camera button up to by-pass it. The battery life has dramatically dropped from lasting a couple of days with everyday use to around 9 hours. The signal from the network has dropped from 3 bars on 3G to 4 bars on GPRS, and finally apps keep crashing and exit themselves to the home screen.
I have rang my network (O2UK) and they have said that they have had serveral reports of Apple products having these bugs since the release of 5.1, and saying that nothing has changed in terms of te settings and masts near me, but they advised me to check my network settings and if they are different from what O2's website said (they were the same). So why are there so many bugs with 5.1? I can't download any apps at all and my battery is worse?

im trying to sync my phone to my new computer without losing all my contacts.
i dont care about the photos or music, ive got all the music on my computer anyway..... and the photos i can recover from the phone without syncing.... but as soon as i do the sync its going to clear all my contacts and and start fresh, as there is no history of my phone on my new computer.
ive gone from a broken pc ( its dead, so i cant get the old itunes history) , and now i have a MAC, and im worried that when i say YES to the sync its going to wipe the phone clean and sync it with a contact file that is blank.....
so is there a way i can get the contacts off my phone before i do the sync so i don't lose them..
