How to I sync my iPhone to a new laptop (old laptop is completely dead)?
I want to be able to have my iPhones music, photos, videos, contacts and apps and everything backed up on my laptop in case something happens, but my old laptop, an HP is TOTALLY dead, i got a new macbook pro. The problem is, is since i want to since my iPhone to this new laptop, won't it delete EVERYTHING on my phone! That can't happen! I have too much on there i can't loose. There's no way my old laptop will even turn on, I've searched on the internet for solutions but everything says transfer everything from your old laptop… But my old laptop won't even turn on!
Apple has instructions on doing exactly what you want at the iPhone links. I won't duplicate here.
An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes account at a time.once you switched to a new iTunes account or a new computer. You have to authorize your iPhone to it at first, then you can upload music and video from the new iTunes to your iPhone. But this way will overwrite the original files on iPhone with the new iTunes. You may try this iPhone transfer, it can help you copy files from iPhone to computer for backup, you can also use it as an iTunes alternative to upload music and video. It will not erase your original iPhone files. It's safe and works pretty well for me.

- Why is my iPhone 5 battery completely dead? I charged it up yesterday, it was around 100% when I went to bed. Woke up this morning, it was completely drained and turned off. I thought it was strange, but I tried to charge … Show more
- What happened to my iphone 5? Completely dead? I wasn't even on my phone but i went to check it and it wouldnt even turn on. I've plugged it in, toggled the silent button, pressed the home and lock button both. Nothing is working. Any solutions? Or do i need to just go get a new one?
- Went to bed w/iPhone 4s charged 98% woke up completely dead. Why? I never leave my phone on the charger over night. I always clear my apps out before bed. I've had the ios7 for months now. My phone has never done this before. I woke up late because my alarm never went off! This is not acceptable. I've never had any issues with my phone
- My iphone won't turn on. Is it completely dead? My iphone 4s was getting really hot when i used it for a longer period. one morning when i woke up it was really hot and didn't turn on. I let it cool down and then i kept trying to open it but it didn't work. I also tried to hard reset it (home+lock button). Nothing happened. Yesterday i replaced it's battery with a new one. Still doesn't open. What can i do? I have a lot of data in it that was not backed up and i need it. Can i fix it?
