Title: How to transfer iPhone music to iTunes after reinstall Windows 7
Post by: vivitree on November 18, 2011, 01:31:21 AM

I am experiencing trouble with my iPhone. I have to reinstalled my

Windows 7 OS due to some trouble. When I reinstalled everything include

iTunes back, it can not automatically back up my iPhone to iTunes like

it used to. Also, I can not copy any songs and/or videos from iPhone to

my iTunes.

Does anyone know how could I restore all my previous services I got

before the reinstallation? Help!!
Very thanks.

I use Sharepod for my iPod touch:

Change
Add and remove music, videos, playlists and artwork on your iPod.


Backup
Backup all those tracks you just can't lose onto your computer. Import them automatically into your iTunes library.

It's because you blew away the association between your phone and computer. You can't just walk up to any computer to synch your phone, and when you reinstall the OS you start over.

There are a few tools that can rescue your songs. I assume you didn't back up any of your songs, before you reinstalled your OS, right? So your music is on the phone only.

When I had a disk crash a few years ago, I used ipodrip to restore. It worked. Now I do regular backups. Consider doing that.
