There's no way to restore my old backup to my new phone without erasing all content. I did this one other time and it totally messed up the phone and I had to go back to the store to get it fixed. I would rather not do this. I thought I could just plug my phone in and it would pop up on itunes like it used to, but of course apple had to change itunes and now the iphone doesn't even show up on itunes. How do I fix this????
iPhone 7, iOS 13
