If you want to transfer your files from the old iPhone to your new iPhone 4S, follow these steps to successfully transfer data from old iPhone to new iPhone 4S. Here are the steps:
- Make sure that you downloaded the latest version of iTunes or the iTunes 10.5.
- Connect and sync in your iPhone to the iTunes. It is important that your iPhone is backed up to avoid loss of pertinent data and information.
- iTunes will redirect you and ask if you want to restore from a back up or to set up a new phone. Choose the backup of your current iPhone. If you are not redirected, select a backup to restore previous iOS on your new phone and try again. During this process, you will see the iTunes' progress bar. If this happens, allow ample time for the completion of the upgrade.
- After you selected back up on your new iPhone 4S, your iPhone will restart.
- Select the iTunes window when it appears after your iPhone restarted.
- Click on the tabs that you want to sync such as music, photos, etc.
- Click on "apply" to sync your new iPhone with iTunes.
- Check if your saved messages, email accounts, passwords, photos, notes, and other personal settings are present on your new iPhone. Your formatted device will ask you to enter your email account and voicemail passwords again. If you fail to remember your voicemail password, you can reset it.
