(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi. My Mac's hard drive recently crashed and everything is wiped out. I have a new hard disk now.
My question is: How do I transfer data from my iPhone... back to my Mac? I would like to transfer data from my iCal, iTunes, iPhotos, SMS and contacts.
Would appreciate some advice. It's been a very frustrating experience. I don't want to screw up and end up deleting all my data from my iPhone instead.

Best idea is to jailbreak ( if possible) then use a file explorer for mac then install afc2add; then copy everything across, restore + sync ; copy everything back; sync. sorry in a rush. btw only copy /var.

Log-in in to your iTunes account on your new Mac and then sync as normal. You'll be asked if you want to copy stuff from your iPhone to Mac (which you probably want to do) and then you should be able to continue as normal. Remember to authorize your new Mac with your iTunes account as well.
Besides there is a step by step instruction on You must login or register to view this content..
Hope it can do you a favor.
