What is the best way to transfer apps, contacts, et cetera from one iPhone (3G) and computer (2006 MacBook) to a new iPhone (4S) and computer (early 2011 MacBook Pro)? I have already moved music, among other things using Migration Assistant.

What's the best way to transfer (not forward) a call from one iPhone to another?
What's the best way to transfer (not forward) a call from one iPhone to another? Is there an app available that does this? I'm asking about receiving a call, then transferring that caller to another iPhone on a separate number and then disconnecting while those two users are joined up in a conversation.
Ask your carrier. This would be a feature provided by them.

What's the best way to transfer 11,000 photo's from my old mac to my new one?
What's the best way to transfer 11,000 photo's on iphoto to iphoto on my new mac. I've just spent 24 hours importing them onlu for it to say there is not enough space available - BUT I'VE JUST BOUGHT AN NEW UPGRADED MAC?
Don't import them.
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else. -
What's the best way to transfer apps to another iPad?
I just upgraded from the original iPad to the iPad 4th gen, and I want to transfer apps and their saved data as well if possible so I don't have to repurchase them. What's the best way to do this?
apps never bind to the device they bind to the appleID you could not buy them again if you tried
any attempt to buy an app already bought with the appleID will result in a free redownload -
What is the easiest way to transfer an faairly large HD imovie project from one computer to another in a different location. Can you export to drop box? Will the other computer need the exact imovie version?
OK it depends.
If you have a finished movie, you can SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE and create your final movie. Then, depending on the size of the finished movie, you can transfer via dropbox or similar service. Ninety minutes is a very long movie for iMovie, but it may work for you. I would suggest 720P to keep the size down.
If you need to transfer the entire iMovie Project so it can be edited in iMovie at the other end, then you need to transfer the project and event assets to an external hard drive and get the hard drive to the other location.
Directions are here. Follow the directions for 1) Moving or copying Project to external drive. Then 2) Consolidate Media.

What is the best way to transfer my music library from my windows pc to my new macbook air?
what is the best way to transfer my large iTunes library from my windows pc to my new macbook air? Not all purchased, many from CDs I owned
Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

What's the best way to transfer everything from my 5-year-old iMac to my 1-year-old iMac?
What's the best way to transfer everything from my 5-year-old iMac to my 1-year-old iMac?
I'm doing role reversal with these two. The newer imac is becoming our business computer, the older one will be our personal computer from now on until it gives out. For the record, I have Carbonite on the business unit. Should be a no-brainer, right? (Which is precisely why I'm asking!)
Thanks for whatever timely and accurate advise you may have.Thanks. I stumbled across migration assistant later that afternoon in a google search. Just finished using it today to do the deed. Appreciate your quick response!

With supervised ipads, what is the best way to transfer photos and videos to the PC? Wireless transfer is not an option in our circumstances.
There are only two ways of transfering things on the iPad.
- via WiFi
- via usb cable
From what I have read, you need to connect to iTunes on the supervising PC.

What is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac?
what is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac? I don't have a time capsule, so I cannot use time machine.
thanksYour best bet by far is to use Setup Assistant when the new Mac first starts up to transfer directly from the old one.
It's similar to Migration Assistant, but doing it that way will avoid having an extra user account.
Either way, you can connect them via FireWire, Thunderbolt, or your network, but avoid wireless if at all possible. You can connect both to your netwrork via Ethernet, or put a single cable between the two.
See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion for details. -
What is the best way to transfer my iphoto library from current imac to my new imac. Both imacs have iphoto 9.2.1
os on old imac is 10.6.8. os on new imac is 10.7.2. I want the albums and events to stay intact. I have 4500 photos and 79 videos. 14.9 gb. looking for some advice here. Thanks so much.Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
