How do I transfer data from an IOS 7 iPhone 5 to an IOS 6 iPhone 5?

I missed the cutoff for reverting to IOS 6 via iTunes, so in desperation I just bought an iPhone 5 with IOS 6 on it. (I have a vestibular disorder that leads to feeling very carsick when I use the phone, even with Reduce Motion on.)
My last iTune backup was from my IOS 7 phone. I have read that I can't use that one. But can I restore from a recent iCloud backup? What data am looking at losing? Can I move my iTunes library over? Am I restoring, or accessing a backup? I would love to know what steps to follow, if anyone can help me.

If your backup is made from iOS 7, then you can only restore that backup to a device with iOS 7 or higher. There is no way to restore a backup from a newer iOS to a phone with an older iOS.
Your only choice would be to sync data to the phone after setting the phone up as new. Contacts and calendar can be synced from iCloud if you were syncing from that, but not if you were just using iCloud as a backup.

How do I transfer data from one iPhone to another?

If your old device is an Apple using iOS 5 or later, and you have an iCloud account, you can transfer all your saved messages, email accounts, photos, notes, and other personal settings to your new iPhone.
Here's how...
Connect your old Apple device to WiFi and to a power source.
Back it up to iCloud by going to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and toggling iCloud Backup on. The time it takes to ba ckup depends on how much data you have and on the speed of your internet connection.
iCloud backs up your device once a day. If it needs backing up before you transfer to your new iPhone 5, tap Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. Do not start transferring before the backup is finished.
Turn on your new iPhone and complete the setup by selecting your language and country, and choose whether to enable Location Services. When prompted, choose your WiFi network.
When prompted to set up, choose Restore from iCloud Backup, tap Next, and enter your Apple ID and password.
Select the backup of your old device and tap Restore. Wait until the device has finished restoring from the backup.
When the restore process is complete, your iPhone will restart and be ready to use.
Connect your iPhone 5 to iTunes to sync data not contained in the backup (such as music, videos, apps, and so on). You can choose the data that are synced by clicking the syncing tabs in iTunes.

How do I transfer data from IPAD to USB drive?

How do I transfer data from my IPAD to my PC or USB port? I have orginal files and documents that I need to put on a USB drive and I do not know enough about the IPAD to figure it out. Thank you.

You need to transfer the files to your computer and then copy them to the thumb drive.
You can use file sharing if your apps support it.
iOS: About File Sharing - Support - Apple
You can use cloud sync services like DropBox.
Dropbox - Dropbox for iPad
There are apps that let you transfer the files using USB or WiFi.
File Manager - Folder Plus on the App Store on iTunes
Or like Kappy suggested, email will work as well.

How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.

Hi All,
         How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.
         Can i do it ebven if he tables are different in structure.
Please Advice.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Saket Tiwari,
I hope the earlier post by kashyap is good enough an answer. anywas in addition to it let me give a detailed
explanation of how you can populate an internal table.
1) Append data line by line.
     Syntax : APPEND [<wa> TO / INITIAL LINE TO] <itab>.
this appends new line to internal table <itab>.
2) Using COLLECT statement.
             COLLECT is another form of statement used for populating the internal tables. Generally COLLECT is used while inserting lines into an internal table with unique standard key. The syntax for COLLECT statement is as shown
     Syntax : COLLECT [<wa> INTO] <itab>.
3) Using INSERT statement
     Syntax INSERT [<wa> INTO / INITIAL LINE INTO] <itab> [index <idx>].
INSERT statement adds a line/work area to the internal table. You can specify the position at which the new line is to be added by using the INDEX clause with the INSERT statement.
Now coming to your request..
To append part or all of an internal table
     Syntax
              APPEND LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>] TO <itab2>.
*     Note:
Without the FROM and TO options, this statement appends the entire table <itab1> to <itab2>.*
b) To insert part or all of an internal table into another internal table
     Syntax
          INSERT LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>]
          INTO <itab2> [INDEX <idx>].
c) Using Move statement.
To copy entire contents of one table into another in one execution
     Syntax MOVE <itab1> To <itab2>.
               OR
          <itab1> = <itab2>.
but u hav to be careful because he contents of itab2 will eb overwritten on the execution of this statement.
These copy the contents of ITAB1 to ITAB2. Incase of internal tables with header line we have to use [] inorder to distinguish from work area. So, to copy contents of internal tables with header line the syntax becomes,
ITAB1[] = ITAB2[].
Coming to the letter part of your question, Yes, we can copy values between tables having different structures.
for this we use
                            MOVE-CORRESPONDING <itab1> TO <itab2>
    this executes the statement for their header lines. Searches for the sub-fields which occur both in itab1 and itab2 and then generates, for all relevant field pairs which correspond to the
        sub-fields ni , statements of the form MOVE itab1-ni TO itab2-ni. The other fields remain unchanged.
I hope the information provided has been of your help.
Reward if useful.
Regards,
Jose

How do I transfer data from one time capsule to new time capsule when TC backs up an iMac and MacBookPro

It is generally better to leave the old backups and start again.. unless there is something you particularly need.
But if you desperately want all the old backups you have to copy the sparse bundles.. this will take very long time as it must copy via the computer..

Take particular note of the initial comments.. ie before you read how to do it.. don't do it.

I am going to purchase the latest Mac Book Pro. How do I transfer data from my very old Macbook running OS 10.4?

You may want to use the Migration Assistant, which appears the first time you start up the new machine during setup, and also is available later (it is found in /Applications/Utilities.) Note that if you are running 10.4.x on the old MacBook both machines need to use FireWire to do this, but the late 2006 MacBook has that. You will need a special 4 pin to 6 pin FireWire adapter cable, as the FireWire ports on the newest MacBook Pros are different.

How do I transfer data from my passport to my macbook? It recognizes the passport as I can see all of the information, but I can't get away from the "checking for sources" spinning wheel.

There's several options available, they're not perfectly but from my experience they work just fine. Here's an example of just two -
Move2Mac - http://www.detto.com/move-2-mac-overview.php
Belkin Transfer System - http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Mac-Transfer-Kit-White/dp/B001GTM4HQ
You can also wire the two machines together via Ethernet and network them together but you'll require the USB-to-Ethernet adapter for the MacBook Air.
Also as Kenneth suggested, there's the option of using an external HD and migrating.

That's the easiest way, this side of using Time Machine. The time it takes to transfer files between our computers ka vary but while doing it on my MBP I had to leave it plugged in for near 24 hours and it was supposed to take 3.

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.
