Hi,

So basically i'll be upgrading to the iPhone 5 in the not too distant future. However, as I backup my existing iPhone 4 to iCloud, as soon as i get my iP5 i will probably just restore it from the latest iPhone 4 backup.

my question is this - I used to sync my 4 with my Win7 PC, but stopped in October last year due to iTunes match + iOS 5 (therefore no need to sync). What I want to do now is plug my restored 5 into my MacBook Air.

Just wandering what will happen when this is done? Will the Air just backup the iPhone to its SSD and change nothing on the phone?

Thanks in advance for any help!
