Moving From Current iPhone to New 3G?

Any word if there is an upgrade path from current iPhone users to new 3G iPhone when it is released... or will this require the purchase of a new iPhone all together?

I posted something about this a month ago after reading an article in an online business section. It was removed because it was "speculative."
Has Apple announced this officially?

Saying that you would have to buy a new iPhone to get 3G isn't speculating. Its fact since we know that the current iPhone doesn't have the hardware in it. Now, theorizing about what a 3G iPhone is going to cost, what features it has, or the like is just speculation since a 3G iPhone does not exist. There are certain things we can say about a 3G iPhone based on what is already known about the current iPhone. However anything else assumes that a 3G iPhone already exists, which we cannot assume.

I have moved from the UK to New Zealand and Itunes will not accept my new Zealand bank details, as a result nothing will work on my phone and I cant access emails!

Do you have a new Apple ID to use in NZ? If not open iTunes Store. Log out of your old Apple ID, then try to login. Select Create Apple ID from the dialog that appears. Make a new Apple ID for NZ with a NZ email address. Once that is approved and verified, log into the iTunes Store with the new Apple ID. This should fix all other issues.

Moving from one iPhone to another

Hi
Can you please kindly clear this up for me. I'm reading and clicking around and just getting more confused.
Recently I moved from an iPhone 3G -> 3GS. I did a back up and used this to restore on to the new phone. Brilliant. Everything was there except my apps and music.
I put this down to not syncing them on that laptop I used.
Now I'm expecting an iPhone 4 soon and want to make sure this doesn't happen again. I have gone in to iTunes (10.1 on a Mac Book Air running 10.6.5) but if I click sync on the apps it warns me it will wipe my phone and install what shows in the library - one app I don't even have on the phone. Eek!
What should I do to ensure my apps get put on to my new phone?
Thank you
Shell

Brilliant. The 'Sync Purchases' step was what I was missing, thank you
The apps/music were on a different computer I changed from about the same time so I never got around to doing the whole sync thing on there. I did restore from this old computer but it was until I was away from it I realised what had happened with the apps and music! I understood this is what I should have done though to get them back as I know they were all synced on there.
It all makes sense now so it won't happen again, cheers!
To be clear for those finding this thread looking for help, if you are planning to move from one iPhone to another:
1- Before: Do a back up (right click the phone on the left in iTunes and choose backup)
2- Sync apps etc (right click on the phone on the left in iTunes and choose sync purchases)
3- On the new phone when iTunes asks, use the backup
4- After, sync it to get your apps back!

If you want to transfer your camera roll photos, along with text messages and other data and settings from your old phone to your new one, back up the old phone then restore the backup to your new one (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109). If you only want to transfer the photos, import them from your old phone to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, then put them in a folder and sync them to your new phone by selecting the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing. (Be aware that photos synced to your phone using iTunes can only be deleted later by syncing them off again. They can't be deleted directly on the phone.)

After you Restore from backup, sync the iPhone.

You need to sync the data from your old iPhone, to the computer via iTunes. Once the data is on the computer, you then need to sync it to the new iPhone, also via iTunes.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/how-to/#video-sync - this is a link with a short video that teaches you how to sync your iPod / iPhone using iTunes
If you sycn with iCloud, you can also sync some of the data via iCloud. This may not work for all you music, if it was not purchased via iTunes.

You can use iTunes or iCloud to move data from old iPhone to new iPhone. If you want a fast way you can try FonePaw iOS Transfer. Here I show you how to transfer data from iPhone to new iPhone:
First of all, backup old iPhone:
-Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
-Tap Back Up Now.
-Wait until the backup finishes.
Then set up your new iPhone (When the backup of your old iPhone is finished, turn on your new iPhone ):
-Choose Restore from iCloud Backup.
-Tap next.
-Enter your Apple ID and password.
-Choose the backup of your old iPhone and tap Restore.
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?

Yes, it will. You cannot merge information on the phone. If you want the old messages, you will need to restore from a backup of the old phone, which will make the new phone look just like the old phone. If you want to save the messages from the new phone, you will not be able to get the messages from the old phone.

Click on "Edit Products"
Click on the "X" to the right of the product.
Click "Unregister".
If that doesn't work, you're going to need to call AppleCare and have them remove your phone from the system.
Best of luck.
