I was trying to transfer my Outlook data base to my ipad

When I connected the Ipad to my dell laptop it told me I had to add itunes to my laptop, in doing so it deleted all my apps, books,movie and rental from my Ipad. Where did it go? Is there a web account I can restore from?

ipad, Windows XP

One iPad can only sync to one computer. You find out what happens when you use another computer (all old stuff gets deleted from iPad and is replaced with what is in the new computer. You should have gotten a warning when you first hooked up to your new computer.

If you sign in on the new computer with the iTunes account you first used you can re-download the apps you purchased before without having to pay again.

I do not kinw if the books and movies can be downloaded again but I think so.
