Today my OS (win XP) crashed and i had to reinstall from zero. After i have reinstalled all i have this huge problem. All my pictures contacts and apps are ONLY in my 3G 8GB iPhone. What i want is to back up all to iTunes again but if i try to sync iPhone i get the message that the phone is already synced with another iTunes so if i do sync i lose everything. How can i keep my contacts and photos???? Where are stored and if i copy that files and then sync can i put them after again in the phone???? Swap tunes can help me???????
No. You didn't have to format or repair. Install XP into a different folder, or even the same folder, and all your apps and files will still be on the drive and accessable. You didn't have to format to install XP again.
Lesson to be learned? Back up all your stuff before you screw up again.
