I got a new laptop and need to restore my music but iTunes wants to erase and sync my iphone. How can I transfer my songs back into iTunes without any risk of losing them. I don't have another copy.

You can only sync you iPhone to 1 computer, so you will have to copy your files from your old itunes to your new itunes, and then sync your phone to that computer.

Do you still have your old laptop/PC?

If you do, just copy the music files to an external drive, copy them from the drive to the new laptop, and add the files to iTunes.

If you don't, I don't know what to tell ya...
