My hard drive crapped out so I lost everything.

Reinstalling everything from scratch.

I installed iTunes but I can't figure out how to get everything from my iPhone to my new installl of iTunes.

Anyone know how to do this and willing to share?

First time I tried to sync, instead of syncing everything from my iPhone to iTunes, it WIPED all my iPhone data!

Fortunately I had backed up first but this is pretty ridiculous it would even be able to do that!

Any help greatly appreciated -- thanks!

Look into sharepod. It's free and will move your music over very easily. Pictures you can get just by plugging it in and not syncing and using windows explorer. Is it not backed up to iCloud? :)

I recommend two things:

1) Right click on the device in iTunes and choose "Transfer Purchases"
2) Download i-FunBox for the rest.

The makers of iExplore also have another software that will transfer everything from your iPhone to a pc. I honk it's iPhone to pc or something close to that. It actually transfers everything.
