hi guys, had nightmare syncing iphone itunes, because when got phone had pc, (all was phone , running because knew i'd using on mac , have use phone, apple said didn't need /register' on itunes if wait till i've got mac register it, did!) so when put mbp tonight, it's messed up, , syncing saw 'deleting' come in step step, hasn't pleased me greatly, can imagine. it's messed phone, unplugged before lost every single contact. why pressing /sync/ mean after you've done delete it. there safe way contacts on mbp iphone before let itunes lousy unclear check boxes delete whole phone? need update 'version' reason tried sync tonight. but, seems bad idea. checkboxes contacts make no sense, , contacts in advanced etc., 'replace', what?! can tell me what's thing do. 1 last question, point of backing apps if games have go through 100 levels to. don't save are, , when put on phone after deleted of them!!!
