How to get your pictures and contacts from one device to another

hey guys I just bought an iphone 5s and I wanted to transfer all my photos and contacts from my old iphone which was a 4s to my 5s. when I tried to do it first time a message appeared on my computer and said that it couldn't transfer anything because the software on my iphone 4s was too old. I updated everything and I tried to restore the backup, but instead of restoring it from my most recent backup it restored it from a backup that happened about a year ago. So i need to know how to restore a backup from my iphone 4s and transfer it to my 5s

The following has instructions for transferring to a new iPhone via either iCloud or iTunes: Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support

TS2776 How can I transfer e-mail contacts from one IPad to another?

How can I transfer e-mail contacts from one IPad to another?

Depends on how big the file is. If itis only a couple of pages, or mostly text, the easiest way would be to e mail it. If it is a very large file you are going to need wifi. Take both pads to starbucks, and e mail it from there. Or if you have wifi, use drop box, for example.
Your other choice, avoiding wifi would be a bluetooth type transfer. There is an app call bluetooth file lite that reads like it will do what you need. The good news is it is free. The bad news is that it has terrible ratings. For grins, i am installing it now on a pad and a phone, and will see if it works.
With a bluetooth method, you need both devices in the same place. If you are trying to send your file across country, bluetooth will not work for you. you need e mail or drop box type solution, and if the file is big, you will almost certainly need wifi.

How do i move itunes and music from one pc to another?

All - i need to move all my music from one pc to another - does anyone know how to do this? i am not very technically minded and ever time i try to look it up i get very confused! thanks in advance.

I set up a home network and transferred it using that. See if you can get a PC-savvy friend to help you, or hire someone to do this. It is nearly impossible to talk someone through this over the internet.
Windows has some built-in helps to tell you how to set up a home network and turn on file sharing. If you don't understand that, get someone to help!

Home Sharing - how to get music files to transfer from one computer to another...

I have two computers in my home authorised for Home Sharing - I have no problems locating the other library on either of my computers. However, when I am on iTunes in Computer A and I click onto Computer B's music library (so that I can transfer music file to Computer A) I am unable to move Computer B's music into Computer A. I have both iTunes open on each computer and ther are both using the same Wifi connection.
In iTunes Help, it says:
     - select the music files that I want to share into Computer A. (this bit I can do).
     - in the 'show' menu at the bottom of the iTunes window, select 'items not in my library'. This is where I run into trouble - there does not appear to be any such menu!
     - select items I wish to import, then click on 'import'. - again, no such button appears to exist!
I have updated my iTunes software to the latest version available on both computers. This is very frustrating for something that should be quite simple - I would very much appreciate any suggestions or solutions...

Hi arastis10,
If you are having issues transfering songs between computers set up for Home Sharing, you may find the following articles helpful:
Apple Support: Understanding Home Sharing
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819
With Home Sharing, you can stream music and video from one authorized computer to another, or simply drag music between computer libraries. You can also choose to have iTunes automatically import purchases you make on any of your Home Sharing computers to your own library. To do so, select the library and use the Settings button at the lower right of the iTunes window to check what you'd like copied.

How to transfer/ copy data and setting from one iPhone to another

Hi,
I recently cracked the screen on my 3G iPhone and a have fortunately managed to convince the insurance company to pay for a new one.
I'd like to be able to transfer all my contacts, apps aand setting to the new phone. Only problem is I have to give back the old phone to get the new one.
Any advice much appreciated, and thanks in advance to anyone who spend time to help

The iPhone is designed to be synced with the supported applications on your computer for contact info, calendar events, and bookmarks. To transfer iTunes content and photos from your computer to your iPhone requires syncing with iTunes. Photos captured by your iPhone should be imported by your computer as with any other camera. The imported photos can be transferred back to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process.
iTunes also creates and maintains a backup of your iPhone that includes data such as most iPhone settings, email account settings, SMS messages, notes, recent calls, call favorites, 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by 3rd party apps, contact info, and photos captured by your iPhone - but not a good idea to depend on the backup only for the last 2. Sync contact info with a supported application on your computer and import photos that were captured by your iPhone before giving up your iPhone. You can restore your new iPhone from your existing iPhone's backup followed by a sync.

How do I migrate settings and signature from one computer to another??

I have a new computer. I have installed Adobe X Pro on the new machine, and now I woudl like ot move my preferences and signatures over. What do I need to copy from one machine to the other???

You don't copy signatures, you'd copy digital ID files. The self-signed digital IDs that you create with Acrobat are saved as .pfx files (Win) or .p12 files (Mac). You can get the folder they're stored in via the Security Settings dialog in Acrobat:

How do you move calendars and mailboxes from one HD to another?

My MB hard drive crashed but I can still access the data on it by connecting it externally through USB. I installed a new HD and am now trying to get some mailboxes to the new HD from the old, crashed HD.
I can see the mailboxes and emails on Home/Users/My User/Library/Mail/Mailboxes, but I wasn't sure if I can drag and drop specific mailboxes onto the new HD.
Any help would be appreciated as I was not able to find anything on the support pages specific enough to help.

Hi Daniel,
To my knowledge, it is not possible.

How do I move iTunes and content from one PC to another?

I am swapping computers and wondered if it was possible for me to move my iTunes and all the content to a new computer?
**apologies, as soon as i posted this i realised i had done it in the wrong area**
Message was edited by: jozmail

You should post in the itunes forum.
You can click support at the top of the page and type "Move itunes library" or similar in the search bar.
Since you make no mention of your computers operating system, I don't know what to suggest.
You can use your backup, migration assistant, external drive, flash drive, dvd, cd's, etc.

How do I send a text file from one device to another?

Hi,
I'm working on an Android Air app made in CS5.5 where user data is saved in the app's applicationStorageDirectory as a text file.
Is there a way to send this saved text file to another device's applicationStorageDirectory via Bluetooth/email/text e.g?
The idea is that the app "game" is saved on each person's device. When the game is over, I want the users to be able to compare their results. (I'll write some code to compute who the winner is via comparing the two results)
Any help is greatly appreciated. Some code sample would be terriffic.
Thanks,
J.D.

You're in native extension territory. Access to things like bluetooth are well beyond the scope of the AIR framework. You'd need to write a native extension, which is code that taps into the native functionality of the device to expand flash's abilities, to use something like bluetooth.
For you to share locally it most likely may need you to use push notifications, which are perfectly possible, even on wifi.

You would need to check if you made a back up of the iPhone on iTunes/iCloud before you restored from the ipod touch back up. If there isnt then im sorry that data is gone.
