Ok here is my problem:

When I first got my iPhone I synced with my work computer. I then activated my phone on our exchange server and set up my phone to my liking.

Then I went home and tried to sync it to my home computer (which is the computer that I really want to sync it with). iTunes told me that I need to erase and sync the iPhone in order to sync with my home computer. I panicked and clicked cancel.

Now it doesn't give me that prompt when I connect it to my home computer anymore.

So when I try and sync it ... it won't transfer any of my apps that I downloaded to my phone to my home computer.

Is there any ways to get iTunes to come up with that erase and sync again?

The message that it is coming up with says the computer is not authorized for me to copy my apps to it.

I have already tried deauthorizing the computer and reauthorizing. This didn't help.

Anybody have any ideas. I really really can't afford to wipe the phone back to factory ... because then I would have to resetup my exchange settings all over again.

Anybody have any ideas?
 
I hate to do this this but ...

No body in the entire forum has any idea what I can do to fix this.

I guess I will have to resort to sitting on hold forever to talk to apple...*sigh.*
 
Thank you so much!

I am totally going to try this when I get home. Hopefully this works.
