Just before xmas my house was burglarized and among the items taken was my laptop. Insurance has replaced my laptop so now the next step is restoring my addressbook, calendar, and of course audio files like music and podcast subscriptions.

I have a 3g iPhone that has my addressbook, calendar, and podcasts I listen to with a small portion of my music and then I have an iPod 5g 30GB that has all of my music on it.

I know I've seen software in the past that can move the audio files to a computer to restore the library but can't remember the names of any of them. So if someone can make some recommendations, that would be great. I of course would prefer free but if there's an app that is just that valuable, I'm open to spending a little.

As for the addressbook, calendar, and podcast info, can anyone tell me if that data can be copied over to my new laptop? The addressbook and calendar data is of course the most important since I can manually if I have to configure the podcast feeds again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Almost forgot...I'm running Mac OSX Leopard.

Well Once u reinstall Itunes, IF u backed up your Music Files once you Reinstall Itunes..it should all be there. But if u didn't back it up..I'm afraid If it wasn't purchased on Itunes it's Pretty Much gone, except for what you have on ur Iphone.
