The music should already be on the computer if you've been syncing it...

Otherwise, you can't move it to the computer unless it's something that you bought from iTunes off of the device.

Why do you have to get the music back on the computer?
Upgrading wont erase the music.

What?
When you plug into iTunes, it asks to update.
Click yes.
Purchase the apps.

Viola.
No music gone, just updated firmware/apps.

Thats very weird. Seems like your gunna have to use one of the programs suggested, then restore, then update.

I buy most my music on iTunes I used to not though. I got it all back using iPhoneList off Google code.
