My iPhone 5 is very bloated and I need to reformat it. I reformatted my MacBook last night so it is a fresh installation with no iPhone attached to it. How do I transfer only the content that I want on my iPhone (20 apps instead of all 50 on the phone) onto my MacBook without losing all of my data? I remember horror stories of how blank iTunes data on a fresh Mac will overwrite the iPhone with blank data and you lose everything during the sync.
