iPhone backup - what is backed-up?

Hello,


I am trying to backup an iPhone but I am trying to figure out the following. When I let the phone backup does it copy everything on the iPhone (Such as notes and pictures) even if have flagged them s not sync with iTunes? Does it then still backup these?

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1

Ok. At least that's clear. Just 1 other question. Can I back the iPhone up to a *new* computer. One it has never synced before and keep everthing?


The way I understand it is I will keep everything except music and apps, although it is possible to click transfer purchases on the apps part. Is this correct? Losing the music won't be a problem since the iPhone does not contain any music at this point.
