How do I upload data to my iphone from my computer without wiping the phone clean?

Some time ago, I purchased a macbook air (beefed up ipad), and have downloaded some movies from itunes to it. I hooked up my iphone, and synced pics, calendar, phone book, notes, etc, and I want to upload a movie from my itunes library to my phone.

Everything is 'ghosted out', and when I go to click on 'sync all movies', It tells me everything on my phone will be deleted and the library on my computer will be synced to the phone.

I dont want to lose 28 gigs of movies and music on my phone.

How can I upload movies from my mac to my iphone without losing all my data?

Update:

A slight 'hiccup' in trying to sync. my problem is that I had my iphone synced to my computer that my ex-wife has. I now have my own, but can only sync with one itunes library at a time. I try to drag the movie over to my iphone icon and it wont even accept it, and when i try to manually sync, it says that it will erase everything on my phone (lots of stuff), and sync it to my macbook air library (practically nothing).

any options?
