Damaged/broken screen. Cannot back up to itunes and use new phone.

I have a damaged phone. I am trying to connect to itunes so that I can back up all info and transfer to the new (used) phone. I am unable to see anything come up on the itunes screen for my damaged phone. How do I get my stuff from the damaged phone?
