Syncing iPhone To A New Computer

I've been in a similar position for a while now, but I've found absolutely no solution. I even sent an email to Tim Cook's Executive Office (the closest Apple comes to providing a complaints department), but that was some time ago and I haven't received a reply.

From here:

iPod shuffle and iPhone are intended for use with a single computer. You cannot load music from multiple computers or iTunes libraries onto iPod shuffle and iPhone like you can with other devices.

The upshot is that whatever you try to sync with your iPhone, it will cause iTunes to offer to completely erase all the data on your phone before proceeding.

Frankly, I think it's a ridiculous situation, and it diminishes my ordinarily high opinion of Apple's products. Hopefully they'll see sense and rectify this very soon.

In the meantime, you can use a third-party app such as FileApp or FilesLite. You sync your movies and music to them instead of through iTunes, and play them through them too. I haven't tried it personally but it should work. Compatibility is likely to be the only concern.

GL.

Just sync the music from the new laptop and nothing else. not a big deal.

" What happens to people who's laptops are fried and there is no way of recovering them?"

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. If this were to happen, you would simply use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.

If you're running Windows, using Library Tunes might be an option. It lets you establish iTunes libraries on multiple computers, all with the same ID, so you don't have to erase your iPhone, iPad, iPod, etc. when adding new music, videos, etc.

And if your laptop is fried like pointed out here, you can use Library Tunes to recover the iTunes library ID from the Apple device. This way, you can quickly set up a new iTunes library using the contents of your device without erasing its contents.

Library Tunes is free, but as its author, I am required to say that I may receive financial compensation.
