I have purchased a new Air for College. It's a great machine, I'm 100% pleased with it.

My issue is that, a few months ago, my old white MacBook was water damaged. It was completely unusable, completely dead, so I had to save up for months to purchase my new laptop. Never again will I lend my computer to a teenager, even if they are family :(

I also have an iPhone, and while I was laptop-less, my phone became my computer, if you will. But now that I have my laptop, it's time to move my data to it.

But how do I go about doing this? What are my options? Please keep in mind that I do NOT have iCloud set up yet. I don't want to plug in my phone and have everything be wiped. I also have Cydia for biteSMS, 3G Unrestrictor, etc. And I do not want to lose all of that.

What can I do?

Senuti will let you transfer all your music over, but Phoneview on the other hand will let you transfer videos, pictures, music, notes, contacts and more. I think it's $20 but well worth it.
