I am wondering how I can go about syncing my iPhone 4s to my recently acquired PowerBook without losing my settings, data, messages, app folders, etc. etc. I have Leopard installed and the newest iTunes, I have also transferred the music, app, and book portion of my iTunes library via. Home sharing. My laptop doesn't have the storage space for my movie or TV show collection, but that should be okay since they are not synced to my device anyways, strictly for AppleTV.
As it stands now with the music, audiobooks, podcasts, etc. synced to my new iTunes library when I plug my iPhone in and set it up to sync it says it's going to erase everything and start over. I kind of expect this but I am afraid of losing all of my Messages, settings, app folders (100+ apps organized meticulously) and application data, (i.e. Auto Records in Car Care, and dvd collection scanned into Movies app). Is there a way to sync with this computer without losing all this information? Or will I be tied to my Windows Desktop forever in this regard?
Any ideas or advice would be appreciated.
