I searched for an answer here, but it seems that most discussions of this type have to do with iTunes and not losing music, and are therefore not relevant to me.
Situation:
My friend is home on extended sick leave. She has been synching her 1st gen iPhone to her office iMac. Since she'll be home for some months now, she wants to synch it with her home iMac. Getting to her office is inconvenient, but not impossible.
The phone is JB, being used on a Norwegian carrier.
She does not have an iTunes account. No worries there. Her contacts in Address Book are complete on her office computer and her iPhone. Only 3 contacts on her home computer. She wants to preserve the contacts on her iPhone and have them dumped onto the home computer.
She has some pics that are only on the iPhone, and those are important. As of now she doesn't have iPhoto (but she'll get it at some time in the future).
I figure she can send the pics via bluetooth to her home computer and save them in a folder there (do the 1st gen's have bt??). But can she then just plug the iPhone into her home iMac and synch in such a way that her contacts stay on her phone and find there way into her address book?
I've got an iPod Touch and am a relatively competent Mac user, but I have to help her with this over the phone, and not having an iPhone myself I'm worried I'll tell her the wrong thing.
Thanks!
