Once you bought the iPhone 4S, you probably started to wonder how to transfer the data from your old iPhone to the new one. With iTunes, this will be just a piece of cake and when you start to transfer your data from your old iPhone to iPhone 4S, iCloud and iTunes will make all this procedure be a simple and fast one.
So, here’s what you have to do if you want to transfer the data from your old iPhone to iPhone 4S:
1. The first thing to do is to plugin your old iPhone to your computer and then launch iTunes.
2. Sync should start autOmatically but if it doesn’t, then you will have to hit the Sync button. You can also do this by going to the navigation bar where the name of your device should be and then right click on it as well as on the backup.
3. Now make sure you disconnect the old iPhone and connect the new one.
4. You will be asked to register your iPhone 4S if you haven’t done that already. So, make sure you do so.
5. iTunes will give you two possibilities: to set up the new iPhone or restore from backup. You will now have to choose the second option in case you have previously created a backup.
6. After the restoration finishes, you will have to reboot your device. After you do that, your device will be detected once again and iTunes will start to sync back the data from your old iPhone.
7. Wait till iTunes finishes the transfer of the data from your old iPhone to your new one. Once this finishes, your iPhone 4S will have the same settings as your old iPhone and you’ll have the possibility to opt for iCloud backups next time.
That’s about all, you can now use all the data on your new iPhone 4S!
