How do you transfer data from one iPad to another when upgrading models?

Hello.
I am about to sell my iPad 1 and buy a new iPad.
How do I save my old setup and keep my purchased Apps (music, etc)?... I already made a backup in iCloud, but don't see any menu to allow for restoring any or all my information...
Should I deregister my old iPad before or after I reset it to factory setup?
Is there anything else I should I do before selling the device?
Thanks,
Jacques

If you only backup with iCloud and have never used iTunes, then there is nothing more for you to do. But you have the iPad original so I'm guessing that you must have used iTunes at some point. This is what I would do - if you still use iTunes.
Backup the iPad, transfer purchases into iTunes, and sync one last time. If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.

After you have all content saved in iTunes and iCloud go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings to wipe the old iPad.
When you get the new iPad, restore from your backup and then sync with iTunes. You will have the option of restoring from iCloud or iTunes when you set the iPad up. I used iTunes because I still use iTunes as my main backup and iCloud as my "backup" backup.
At some point, remove the old iPad as an associated device in iTunes. Do this after you erase the iPad,

How do you transfer data from one iPad to another after manual setup of new device?

Okay so, i just got a new iPad air, to replace with my old ipad 2. I have already set up the new ipad, and backed up the old one. I went into the settings of the new iPad, and hit 'Restore from backup'. When i did this, it restored the ipad to the backup, but it only managed to get all of my photos, and three of my apps. None of my music was transferred, and neither was the rest of the backup. Now i cannot figure out how to transfer the rest of the data to the new ipad. How do i do this??

How can you transfer data from one ipod to another ipod ?

The geniusbar told me what to do, I understood but there is still a problem for me >:/ It's not showing up though. Like "device." Nothing is happening, and I tried as soon as I got home. Then after half an hour, then an hour, then 3 hours. My problem is that it's not showing up! It's stuck in recovery mode! There's still like 25% battery. So I have no idea why.

How do you transfer data from one device to another??

I have an iPod Touch and i would like to purchase an iPad. So i am wondering if i can safely transfer the data from the ipod to the ipad? I have a lot of games that took a long time to achieve things in and i would not like to loose all that data. So i was wondering if i used the same itunes account and the same gamecenter account if this would work? I really dont know what will work and what won't work, so if you could help me out i would really like to know. Thanks

Sort of but its kind of all or nothing for the whole device.
You can restore the iPad from a Touch backup in iTunes but it will overwrite all the information and data on your iPad. You could then re-sort out your iPad but its kind of overkill.
There is no application specific data transfer.
Sorry !

How do you transfer information from one iPhone to another, when you started a new account instead of restore

I Had to start the iPhone as a new setup as the software on the new phone was not up to date. Now, how can I get this to sync with my old phone Icloud backup.

Hello Jardinesau,
If you are having issues transferring your data from your previous iPhone to your new iPhone via an iCloud backup, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful:
If you've already set up your device, you can reset it so that you can go through the iOS Setup Assistant again and restore from your backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup.

How do you transfer PSE from one computer to another when the original purchase was on line without a disc?

I have PSE10 on a WindowsXP machine that I upgraded from PSE8. The upgrade was done with a download; no disc. The only disc I have is the PSE8 version. I now have a new Windows 8 machine. How can I get the PSE10 program onto the new Windows 8 machine? I will also need to transfer the organizer information. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Hi there,
              I see that you have informed 2 things:
              1. Upgraded OS WindowsXP to Windows8
              2. Do not have installation media Disc for PSE10 as you purchsed as download.
              1. Please note: PSE10 is not compatible with Windows8, it's not tested on this OS, however you can try working on this, in case if you face any issue it will be extremely hard to get it resolved,
              so I would still suggest you go with Windows 7 in case if you have it. For Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 System Requirement visit [ System requirements | Adobe Photoshop Elements ]
              2. Mostly downloads are provided by directly Adobe, so you can directly login to your adobe.com account and download the software from there, you only need to have the installation media of current version software,
                  When you try to activate the PSE10, you need to enter the serial number of PSE10, as it's an upgrade, you will be asked for it's previous qualifying serial number of PSE8.
                  ......................If you need help in finding serial number, please visit [ Find your serial number quickly ]
                -> In case if it's purchased from a reseller, you may not get the download now, for that you have have [ Other downloads ]

how can I transfer information from one ipad to another ?

What kind of information? You can sync things like Contacts and Calendars by using iCloud. You can backup one iPad to iTunes on a computer and then sync the backup to the other iPad. You can configure your iTunes content and sync the same content to both iPads.
It is based on what you want to do. Or are you looking for a way to send files from one iPad to another wirelessly? There are apps to do things like that, as well as cloud services, such as DropBox.

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.
