Iphone6 from iphone4S

I am running Windows 7 with iTunes 10.7.0.21. I am transitioning from an iPhone 4S (IOS 5.0.1) to the new Iphone6. I'm not so good at updating stuff but I did just back it up and sync the 4S in itunes which has only about 450mb of phone memory left.  I do want to keep old phone for music and pics so prefer not to empty it.  Just looking for some advice on best way to get the 6 setup and keep contacts, pics and music.  I'm thinking just update itunes and plug in iphone6???  Could it really be that simple.  Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Hello Robdoggtac
All you would need to do is to back up your old iPhone with iTunes and then plug in your new iPhone in and restore it from that new back up. Check out the article below for more information.

  • How do I transfer data from iphone4 to iphone6 plus

    After did formatting laptop (windows7), tried to connect iphone4 to backup in iTunes, but laptop could not save the backup. Now need to transfer the data's from iphone4 IOS 7.1.2) to iphone6 plus (IOS 8.1). Can anyone suggest the way to fix it.

    Don't know what you mean by saying 'formatting laptop'. If you can't backup your iPhone 4 to iTunes, you're supposed to do a few things to make it:
    Download and install the latest iTunes on your computer. You'd better download it from Apple official site
    Launch iTunes, click Store menu to authorize the computer with your Apple ID;
    Restart your iPhone 4 and try to connect it with your iTunes. If your iTunes recognize it and offer to set it up as a new device or restore, you should click set up as a new device. In the next step, you can see the option 'Back Up Now' to create a backup of your iPhone 4.
    Besides, backing up iPhone 4 in iTunes and restore your iPhone 6 with the iPhone 4 iTunes backup to get the data, you can also backup your iPhone 4 to iCloud(tap Settings > iCloud > sign in with Apple ID > swipe iCloud Backup to ON and click Back Up Now) if your iPhone 4 can access a network. Later, on your iPhone 6, you can click Settings > iCloud > sign in with your Apple ID. Then tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings. After then, set your iPhone 6 as a new device and there will be a 'restore from iCloud' for you. Then you can choose to restore iPhone 6 with the iPhone 4 iCloud backup.
    If you still can't restore your iPhone 6 from iPhone 4 iTunes backup or you don't want to restore iPhone 6 from iPhone 4 iCloud backup, then try the easier way: using mobiletrans. It helps you to copy contacts, messages, videos, photos, songs, and calendar directly from iPhone 4 to your iPhone 6.

    Hi Janelh,
    I also confused about this, I can't do that by myself I don't know the reason. I search it and see phone transfer tool needed. However what is the best tool? Maybe copy data from old iPhone to pc first? Just to see here:  how about it?

    All of your iTunes purchases are available again for free download with your Apple ID and password.
    you can download directly from the App Store or ITunes Store on your phone.
    Open Itunes App on your phone.  Scroll to the bottom and select 'purchases'
    it will show all your past purchases.
    if you have any further problems, please visit the Apple support forums.

  • Since updating to IOS5 my voice memos won't sync from iPhone4 to iTunes (macbook).

    Since updating to IOS5 my voice memos won't sync from iPhone4 to iTunes (macbook). They show in my iTunes but are grey so can't click on them. I need to put voice memos on a CD. Can someone help please?

    First of all what PC type do you have, then what IOS are you running and finally what  Itunes are you running.
    Oh and if this helps, check it out how to upload voice memos from iphone to iMac.

  • Is it possible to stream music to multiple sets of speakers via airplay direct from iphone4s on ios7 in the same way that you can in iTunes

    Is it possible to stream music to multiple sets of speakers via airplay direct from iphone4s on ios7 in the same way that you can in iTunes / Remote?
    I know this can be achieved by the remote app.
    Airplay functionality appears only to support 1 set of speakers at a time?

    Does anyone know how or if it's possible to stream my music from the iPhone to iTunes via bluetooth or wifi? Essentially I want to share the iPhone's library with iTunes (I know one can go the other way).
    Here's why: I'd like to stream my music at work to my computer's speakers without taking the phone out of my pocket. I obviously don't have my home music collection on my company computer. And I figure if I place the phone on my desk to plug it in and play through iTunes, I could easily walk off without the phone. That would be bad (out of contact) and potentially sad (stolen).
    It seems right now the only bluetooth connection to a computer is for the remote application.
    Wait until November. Airplay/Airtunes iOS 4.2 announced for iPhone to iTunes/iTV. If you want a BT audio stream now, you can add a dongle to the PC for headset streaming.
    As far as WiFi file transfer iPhone to iTunes, you can't. There's talks on it but nothing concrete. Except JB.

  • How do i sync my apps and music from iphone4 to formatted pc

    I lost all my HD and need to get my music and apps back using iphone4. My OS is windows7. Can someone help me with getting my data bask from iphone4 to itunes please.
    Thanks

    The apps can be redownloaded for free. The music you purchased from itunes can be transfered to itunes from the phone, just select transfer purchases in itunes by right clicking on Phone icon. Anything you put in itunes from a CD or other place needs to be manually put back in itunes.
    Next time I strongly recommend backing up your HD so you don't have to go thru all these steps! The iphone isn't intended as a backup drive or storage device! if something goes wrong with it and your computer with no backup you're SOL!

  • If you have iPhone4 and can you take out the sim card from iPhone4 and transfer it in to new iPhone4s?

    if you have iPhone4 and can you take out the sim card from iPhone4 and transfer it in to new iPhone4s?

    Under the circumstances this will probably considered a dumb question.
    I currently have a jailbroken unlocked 3GS with a GoPhone plan.  Works great.  I am considering upgrading to a new factory unlocked 4S.  Will I be able to swap in my current SIM card and go?

  • TS2756 Is there a way to change the name of my hotspot network from iPhone4 to something else?

    I want to change the name of my personal hotspot from iPhone4 to something else.  Is this possible?

    The Personal Hotspot name (SSID) is taken from the name of your phone. So, if you want to change it, change the name of your phone:
    Settings>General>About>Name.

  • Any way to convert HD mov clip taken from iphone4?

    HD clips taken from iPhone4 is taking quite a lot of space in my computer.
    Is there any program out there good for converting these mov clips to smaller size but SAME resolution movie? Maybe to other video format? Like those full bluray videos get converted to smaller size e.g. 4GB 720p video?
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH..

    I use QuickTime Player 7 (Pro) for all these re-encoding tasks.
    QuickTime Player X is sometimes not yet up to doing this.
    You can have both versions on the same Mac.
    Cannot give you advice if you are on Windows, Linux, etc...

  • How can i retrieve deleted notes from iphone4 with no back up

    how can i retrieve deleted notes from iphone4 with no back up

    No Backup?
    Simply put, you can't.
    I won't rub salt into it anymore, but I guess you have just learned the importance of backing up your information.
    A mistake we've all made (once).
