Important Note: If you are connecting your device to a computer you do not usually sync your device to, be sure to disable iTunes' automatic syncing so you do not overwrite your device's contents! Follow these steps before you attach your device to any new computer, or any new user account on a computer that has multiple accounts.

Click on Preferences, then click the Devices tab in the window that appears. Click the check box for Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically. Then click OK.

Automatic Syncing on WindowsClick the button in the top-left corner of iTunes and select Preferences. Then click the Devices tab in the window that appears. Click the check box for Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically. Then click OK.
