How do I upload my contacts and music to a new non-apple computer

[freds]

I have a new laptop and can't seem to get my sync to actually sync(from what i think sync means). The Itunes process info says it is syncing with contacts but nothing happens. HELP....Also i cannot seem to get my music files transfered. Im using a flash drive and while all appearances say the library is there when i go to play a song ,nothing is there.

So, what I'm getting at is that you had an old computer that sync'd with your phone and now you have a new computer with all your info on it, but it won't sync to your phone???

If so, did you import the songs into iTunes correctly? If they were purchased songs, did you authorize the new computer? Also too, when you first plugged your iPhone into your new computer, did you have iTunes sync it to "the new computer"?

As for the contacts, there is an option in iTunes that will take your contacts from your phone and override whats in your contacts on your computer.

If I read your question wrong, I'm sorry for giving you "duh" advice, but I hope it helps.
