How to sync iPhone with new computer? - 1
My last computer broke and I want to put music on my phone, but my iTunes won't let me access my phone and let me drop music in to it. What should I do? I have none of my old iTunes files and I'm not going to wipe out my phone.
First you have to set up the new computer and authorize for your Apple account.

You have options, the easiest is download past iTunes purchases from the Store to your new computer's iTunes.

You can also move the contents of the iPhone or iPod onto the new computer.
For Applications, and all content downloaded from the iTunes Store, you need to "authorize your PC" in iTunes under your current account. To do that, just sign in to the iTunes Store on the new computer with the account you always used. It may ask you to authorize that computer now or later, you want to say yes to that when you see it. I forget when it will ask.
- My iPhone won't sync to the new computer i got? Hi guys so i got a new mac and before i had a PC. obviously my iphone was synced to my old computer when i connected my iphone to my new computer to sync music and videos, it keeps saying i need extra space on my iphone even though it has like 8GBs left
- If I sync my iPhone with a new computer will it erase my camera roll? Is there any other way get my camera roll onto computer bc the videos are very long and they don't go on computer, also my old computer was messed up so I couldn't do anything and it used 10 GB for pics that I didn't have! So I wanted sync to new one and start fresh but I don't wanna lose all pics on my camera roll
- If i sync my iPhone to my computer will it take my photos off my phone and put them on the computer? I need to have my phone synced for the app zedge but i don't want my photos to be taken off my phone. There's this bar and on it it says photos, app, ect. And next to it is a little button that says sync. So IIm guessing it will take my photos. But i don't want that to happen but i need to sync my phone. Is there anyway i can do it without having my pictures going on to the computer?
- If I sync JUST music to iPhone on a new computer - do I lose everything? Hi, my computer is broken and in for repair but I want new music on my iPhone. If I plug my iPhone into my laptop (after unticking 'allow devices to auto-sync') and ONLY sync music… Will I lose everything on my phone or will my music just change? It suggests in a warning I can only sync to one computer and I'd lose everything - but I don't know if this 'everything' is actually everything - like my pictures - or just all my current music - which would be fine.
