Q: How to manage an iPhone on a new iTunes library
Hi all,
I have an iPhone 5S, on iOS 8.3, and I manually manage its contents on iTunes on my now old computer (Windows 7).
Today I got delivery of a Macbook Pro, running on OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), and I want to start managing my iPhone with it, rather than with my old computer, but the only thing I have found so far includes erasing the contents on my iPhone; something I don't much intend to do.
Is there a way of managing my iPhone with my new Mac, rather than with my old PC without erasing it?
I looked everywhere, and still haven't found a good enough solution.
PS. I still have access to my old computer if it's necessary to do something that involves it.

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
See this -> https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204318
Then the iPhone should sync without asking to erase it.
