How to backup my iPhone 5 to the computer?

I got the iPhone 5 almost soon as it came out and I have a software update available now. I don't wanna allow it to do the update because my last phone deleted contacts and pictures and everything when I updated it and I don't know how to backup my iPhone on the computer… I'm 16 and am not! Technology illiterate I just am not 100% sure what the correct way to backup all my stuff is… Help please

Plug iPhone to computer, open iTunes, look for your phone in there, than sync. Make sure you sync contacts, while your at it you can put a playlist on your phone if you got enough free space

  • Restore iPhone backup from different computer? I should be getting the iPhone 5 today at work. My current iPhone is on Mac and at work we used windows. We do not have Wi-Fi at work but I would like to restore and start to use the iPhone 5. What I was thinking of doing is backing my iPhone in iTunes and putting on a portable drive and restore it on an windows based iTunes. Will this work? I don't want to convert the iPhone to windows. I'm really just trying to figure a way to start using the new iPhone.
  • Is there a way(without computer)to move my texts from my iPad to my IPhone? ICloud backup? Had to restore phone to last backup and lost texts? Hi, yesterday I had to reset my phone (IPhone 8 plus) to factory default and restore it to its last backup (April 15th). I also have an iPad mini, which everything is Synced. I got everything back on my phone (up to date) except my text messages. I'm not able to access my computer right now and have read you can get them back my backing up you messages to ICloud. Is there anything I can do to get them back on my phone (they are still on my iPad mini), without using my Mac?
