I've had a few customers recently moving to iPad's/iPhone's or upgrading the same. As I am their IT, I of course know all about iThings (not). iTunes to put it bluntly sucks large donkey dick. I hate that I can only sync one way and it defaults to clearing existing content on the target side.
So I am looking for a tool that I can use to copy Photo's/Video's/Contacts/SMS/anything I forgot from the old phone. Then plug in the new phone and copy the stuff backed up to the computer, to the new device.
Does this tool exist? If so, if you have used and liked one in particular, let me know all about it.

My wife uses an adapter from the older iPad interface (not "Lightning", I don't remember the name...) to USB and copies photos etc. to our (Win7) laptop. Works without problems.
Google shows that there are as well adapters for Lightning.

They're just the charging cables disconnected from the AC Adapter. I can use Windows Explorer to copy photos and videos from the iPhone to the computer. Try and do it the other way. You need iTunes (or other tool to do it) and iTunes will copy everything from the directory of the computer to the iPhone but will delete other existing things from the iPhone.

iThingy => apply hammer...
Having said that Kies is the buggiest integration software I have ever used so it not just the iThingy company who can't get the synch right.
Don't they supply a backup facility that basically vacuums your phone to the web, giving you the ability to then restore it to the new phone. Some google foo got me this Top 10 iPhone Backup Software and Apps[^]

Haven't used that piece of sh*t for I reckon a decade. There is a free Android App you install on old and new phone, put new phone on receive and old phone on send and everything (including call history) moves across.

Saw several of those lists when I Googled, none seem to want to actually say "This one is the dog's bollocks and you should just buy it". That's why I'm asking for first hand recommendations.

My world is shattered. I was told everything on the iThings was magical and just worked. How can there be a need for IT?

You can use our 1-NET. The apps are not available for iThings at present, but one can always use a Chromium family of browsers (Chrome, Opera, Chromium, etc) or Firefox browser as endpoints to send/recv files.
We have been using it in our daily work to swap files from/to CP to/from mobile phones (mostly android) without any cables. However for i-family of things, it is less tested.

I've had "tea" in GB.
The AI part of the kettle was probably making the right choice for him.
