Hello all,
New member here so please be kind
.
I know this question is done to death, but I am getting frustrated trying to search for an answer that will put me at ease.
I've just installed Windows 7 and stupidly did NOT save the itunes library that was stored in my "Users" folder on my old OS. That, of course, is now long gone.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to sync my iphone (ver 4) with a new install of itunes without deleting everything on the phone. I've checked the option on itunes so that it won't sync automatically.
I have copies of all non-Istore music in another folder so I could always rebuild my library music-wise if necessary.
What I'm more worried about is my app data. I have a lot of important data stored (e.g. passwords, financial information, etc). I did backup the password app with a 3rd party program, but I would like to avoid having to get that info that way if I could help it.
This is what I've done so far:
1) Create backup of Iphone
2) Transferred purchased items to itunes
I was thinking that if all my apps are on itunes (they were all purchased), then when I sync them, then my data on the phone would be safe. It that a correct assumption?
Is there a better way of solving my problem?
Thank you in advance for all your help,
Pier
