How to iphone with itunes

Use iTunes to sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with your computer

Learn how to sync music, movies, and more using iTunes on your Mac or PC.

If you’re using macOS Mojave or earlier or a Windows PC, use iTunes to sync content to your devices. Before you use iTunes to sync content to your iOS or iPadOS device, consider using iCloud, Apple Music, or similar services to keep content from your Mac or PC in the cloud. This way, you can access your music, photos, and more on your devices when you aren’t near your computer. Learn more about using Apple Music or iCloud Photos instead of iTunes.

If you use iCloud or other services like Apple Music to keep your content up-to-date across all of your devices, some syncing features through iTunes might be turned off.

What you can sync with iTunes

• Albums, songs, playlists, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and audiobooks.
• Photos and videos.
• Contacts and calendars.

iTunes features might vary by country or region.

Sync or remove content using iTunes

Sync your content using Wi-Fi

After you set up syncing with iTunes using USB, you can set up iTunes to sync to your device with Wi-Fi instead of USB.

Use the Finder or iTunes to transfer data from your previous iOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Transfer your personal data and purchased content to your new device from a backup that you made in the Finder or iTunes.

If your backup isn’t encrypted, your Health and Activity data from your iOS device or Apple Watch won’t transfer.

How to transfer your backup to your new device

1. Turn on your new device. A «Hello» screen should appear. If you already set up your new device, you need to erase it before you can use these steps.*
2. Follow the steps until you see the Apps & Data screen, then tap Restore from Mac or PC.
3. Connect your new device to the computer that you used to back up your previous device.
4. Open iTunes or a Finder window on your computer and select your device. You might be asked to trust your device.

6. If you need to restore from an encrypted backup, enter your password when asked.
7. Wait for the restore process to finish, then complete the rest of the setup steps on your iOS or iPadOS device. If possible, keep your device connected to Wi-Fi and plugged into power after setup. This allows content like your photos, music, and apps stored in iCloud to automatically download back to your device.

* To erase your device that’s using iOS or iPadOS 15 or later, tap Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Erase All Content and Settings. On iOS or iPadOS 14 or earlier, tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. This erases all data on your device.
