How do I transfer content from my old iPad to my new iPad?

We have bought a new iPad and want to transfer the apps (and books) from the old one to the new one.  What is the best way to do this?

Yeah...this doesn't work for me.  I have an iPad 2 and the new 2012 iPad.  I backed up the iPad 2 after transferring all purchases.  Then I dismounted the iPad 2 and mounted the new iPad.  Did a restore to it. Barely anything came over after all that time.  I've done this three times and slightly different results, but nothing NEAR like my iPad is set up.  Basically only 10-20% of what's supposed to be on there was restored to my new iPad.  And this is after I did a completel re-install of iTunes.

    How do I transfer content from my old iPhone to new iPhone when using someone elses computer?

    Don't use someone else's computer. Create an iCloud backup of your old phone and restore to that backup when you setup your new phone.

    See this excellent write-up by Pondini ( a regular here, and resident Time Machine expert) on setting up a new Mac from a TM backup from an old machine.
    Here.
    It describes using Setup Assistant, a much better way than using Migration Assistant in creeating a seamless transition of your old applications, data files, and users. Normally you only have one opportunity to use it, upon first boot of your MacBook.

    If you do not intend to use the older machine any longer, you should consider deactivating it and uninstalling it from that machine.  If you think you might need the option to use it, you are allowed to maintain two licensed installations.

    My old MacBook was stolen and now I have all my music still on my IPad but like to get it back in my ITunes as well, is this possible ?

    If the music was purchased from the iTunes Store, simply sign into your iTunes Store account on iTunes. From there, go to the main page of the store. Then, on the right, there should be a purchased button. Tap there, and walla! You can download all of your past purchases. If it wasn't from the iTunes Store, use a third party Mac app.

    You can't without putting it on iTunes first, which is done by using the Transfer Purchases command in the File menu.

    Backup Assistant will download your last saved to network contact/phone numbers. Look on phone menus my Casio has it listed under contacts but mfg's differ on where to actuate. Call *611 and get V rep.

    i have an ether net cable will this help?

    I've used Migration Assistant in the past and it's working like a champ. You either want to connect your MBPs using a Firewire cable or have them connected to the same router with Ethernet cabling. Don't attempt a wifi transfer - it could take a whole day.
    Both links provided are good - they both point to various ways to transfer data. I just prefer MA.

  • How do I transfer files from my old iMac to my new Pro laptop?

    How do I transfer files from my old iMac to my new Pro laptop?

    If you can get both computers on the Internet at the same time without re-cabling, you have the connection infrastructure needed to enable file sharing and share those files.
    That said, many users find it easier to use FireWire Target Disk mode to treat the old computer as a big Hard drive, and just drag and drop the files, or use Migration Assistant or Setup Assistent.
    There is a really good guide here:

    Everything you need to know, right here. Make sure you read through it BEFORE you turn on the new Mac for the first time. This is because the preferred means is using Setup Assistant, which is only available form the first boot.

    How do you transfer information from an old ipod to a new one

    Restoring the new iPod from the backup of your old iPod will result in the new iPod being the same as the old iPod except that you will have to reenter keychain items like passwords since keychain items are only restored to the same unless you use an encrypted backup.

    How do you transfer photos from an old iPhone to your new one??

    Photos in your camera roll are included in the iPhone backup, & restoring your new phone from the backup of your old phone, as described here, will restore these photos to your new phone:

    Photos synced to your phone are not included in any iPhone backup. If you're talking about photos that were synced to your old phone, just sync them to your new phone.
