hi i have the same problem. My sony vaio just shut down yesterday and i can't re boot it so now i am trying to sync what's on the "new computer" to my iphone, however it won't send it.
it wont allow me to add songs to the iphone. It shows in itunes that the phone is attached however, it won't allow once again, for me to add anything.
can someone please help!
i have activated the new computer as one of my accounts, so i don't understand why i can't do this. I don't have my old computer anymore because it's dead...
please help!
thanks!
