Have you tried Migration Assistant?

This also works for Mavericks.

HT5661 will I be able to restore a new iPad with a BackUp from a old one?
I have an iPad Model MD371LL/A that i'm selling. I will buy a new one as sonn it releases the new model.
Will I be able to restore a new iPad with a BackUp from a old one?Yes.
The only 'catch' you may encounter. Let's say your old one is running iOS 7.1.1, and your new one is running iOS 7.0.6, you will first need to update your new one to be running 7.1.1, then y ou can restore it from the backup of your old one and make it a near clone of the old one.
Chances are you won't encounter this, but there have been instances where folks get a broken ipad replaced and try to restore the new one from the backup of the old one and since the replacement is running an older iOS than the replaced one it doesn't work. In that case you set up the replacement long enough to update the iOS then restore it.
But, likely what will happen for you is what happened for me when I bought a new iPod Touch. I did a full backup of my old one then wiped it. Brought the new one home and during hte set up process I had a choice 'set up as new or restore from the backup of the old one'. I chose restore and my new one was a near clone of the old one. I still needed to set up wifi and enter a few passwords to websites, but the data and contents crossed over.
If you are selling your old one you may want to read this about wiping your device to make it usable by the buyer. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 -
I just upgraded to a new computer running Windows 7 from an old one running XP. I would like to migrate my old bookmarks to the new computer but I do not know where to find them or where to migrate them to.
I do have the old computer's disk drive.

I got a new iPod Touch today. I wanted to transfer all my apps and data over to the new iPod from my old one, so I restored it from my old one. Unfortunately, it seems to have erased the new apps that come with the latest iPod. What do I do to get the back?
Maybe I'm confusing apps with function. I was looking at the features on Apple's site, and it showed Voice Control, Air Print, Air Play, that sort of thing.

After setting up my new 4S, restoring a backup of my old 3GS, I've renamed the old 3GS in iTunes and then I've changed the content, deleting all my important stuff. Now I'm syncing the old one to my PC. Can I then after that safely backup my NEW 4S - which now holds all my company information and stuff - to iCloud without risking to lose it?
Hi Mcchen425,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
As a precaution, I would suggest backing up your iPhone to your computer via iTunes as well as iCloud. Then you can delete one of your two backups. The article below will explain all of your options for deleting data or backups from your iCloud storage.

I just got a new IMac, and tried to download files from my old PC. When I go to,Finder, I have 1500 files under Developer, an 78 files under Other.
Most of these files I do not recognize. Can they be trashed? Why did they transfer? I used a flash drive for the transfer. Also, is there a way to transfer my older email files to this new computer?
Thanks for any and all help, I really need it.
TomDid you use the Migration Assistant to help set up the new iMac using some of the files in the older PC? Some likely won't mean much, unless you have applications that can use or convert them. There's also a way to use the software Time Machine to import data files from an external or another computer, so you may have used that, too.
Hopefully someone with experience in a similar issue will reply...
Good luck & happy computing! -
I dont know if I should set up my IPod as new or to restore it from my old one
So i've had it my IPod Touch for six months and never connected it to my computer until now. But it is asking if I want to set it up as new or to restore it from the last time I synced my old Ipod (which was two years ago). I dont want to have my old IPod's information on my new one and I've also heard that setting it up as new will erase all the memory I already have on it. I have about $30 in apps and music on it and do not want to lose it. It has happened to me before while updating it once and dont want to happen again. So does anyone know which one I should choose and the outcomes of both the options?

You should sync your ipod to your computer regularly. -
Well, as above really. Should I just install again? Or do I export from my old MacBook?
Don't try exporting it. Adobe software needs to be installed.
On the new MacBook, sign in to creative.adobe.com with your Adobe ID, download the Cloud app then install your apps.
You can leave it installed and activated on the old MacBook since you're entitled to 2 simultaneous activations.
Or you can deactivate on the old MacBook. Launch any Cloud app and click Help > Sign Out. That will deactivate the entire suite. -

all thischanges to buy storge on icloud wich I cant do on my old account, can I creat an accout only for Icloud to buy storge to use it in my old accout were I need it ?
Message was edited by: Nalharbyi think icloud should let you update your purchases so that the games will sync to your new computer and they will be backed up. i am not sure how to do this so you do not lose the levels you have completed.
if not can you export the game to the new computer with the current settings?
or another way is to sync to the new computer and redo all the levels you have completed again and it should take you less time? -

The iOS device is plugged in to power
iTunes is open on the computer
The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
While the iOS device appears in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
