Hi

I'm really struggling to find some good info on whether it's possible to easily resin my iPhone to my new mac without any data loss. Most posts just point to either old info or some kind of 3rd party program.

I figured all I would need to do is make a backup of the iPhone on iTunes, sync the iPhone which will erase all the data but lock the phone onto my new machine - then hit restore to get all the settings and data back to how it was.

Theoretically this should work no? Anyone had a similar issue recently or can confirm that this method will work?

Cheers
