A question about iTunes and my iPhone.

[ozziegn]

okay, here's my situation. I tend to reformat my computer(s) quite often which means everytime I hook up my iPhone iTunes starts crying about how my iPhone is synced to a different computer. it then wants me to erase all my music and videos.

how can I stop this? I see where it says that I can authorize up to five computers, but I don't exactly know what that means. it's telling me I have five computers authorize and that I'm at my limit.

can someone who knows something about iTunes clue me in?

WTH are you reformatting your computer that often? OS X is NOT Windows. 😱😕😱😕

I use iTunes in Windows XP, not on the Mac side.

that's why.
