In order to complete a backup, you have to merge and transfer the purchases from your iPhone to your MacBook and log in with your Apple ID.

When you connect your iPhone to your new MacBook and will open an iTunes, tap "Create a Backup" and it will ask you to transfer purchases :)

Feel free to come back with any questions you have.
