Transferring From iPhone 3GS to iPhone 5?

I updated my 3GS to iOS 6 a couple of days ago and then today went to get my new iPhone 5. It's not currently on iOS 6 so it says I have to start as a new iPhone and update it... When I tried to update it said it was corrupt, etc.
Help?! I just got it a few hours ago and I'm already fed up with it.

The messages should transfer, and the emails are attached to the email server so your inboxes will come back as well.

  • I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine until I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded it from iTunes, my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers.  Can I go back and re-sync one app from my old phone?

    I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine.  Yesterday I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion.  Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?  

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

  • MMS video from Iphone 3GS to Iphone 3G

    I know we can send pictures from Iphone 3GS to Iphone 3G, but can we send videos from 3GS to 3G. I wonder because the 3G doesn't have the video feature and therefore, I suspect it won't be able to play the video. Someone knows anything about this?
    Thanks in advance

    the 3G doesn't have a video RECORDING feature..... why would that prevent the 3G from being able to play videos? playing videos and capturing/recording videos are two completely different things.
    you suspect wrong.

  • Transfer apps from iphone 3GS to iphone 4

    I am upgrading from iphone 3GS to iphone 4. I have several applications and music which I have bought from apple store with my appleID. Can these apps be moved to iphone 4 if I use the same appleID... or do I need to repeat these purchases again?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, upon subsequent syncs, including separate backups. When you get your new phone, you can either restore it from the backup of your 3GS or set it up as new, the choice is yours. Afterwards, just plug it in an sync.

  • Transfer phone numbers from iphone 3gs to iphone 4s?

    How can I transfer phone numbers from iphone 3gs to iphone 4s?

    I recently upgraded from 3GS to 4S
    I used mobile me for yers so i trustef this would work -
    Ensure that everything is uptodate on the 3GS
    sign in to icloud in the settings on the 3GS and ensure you are syncing contacts (calendars etc also but as you are only querying phone numbers you only seem interested in contacts)
    use the same Apple ID on the 4s when you initially turn it on to set it up (this is what i did, icloud downloaded everything including my settings and what apps were in which folders and where)
    If your 4s is already set up ensure the same apple id is used in the icloud settings.
    Or you could go back to the pc and sync the 3gs one last time, then when setting up the 4s and it asks whether you want to set it up as a new phone or from a back up choose backup from itunes and then plug it in and select the 3gs backup from itunes to install

    how do i transfer contacts from iphone 3gs to iphone 5s

    If you activated the iPhone 5s from a backup of the 3GS, they should have come over from there. Otherwise, you will have to sync them from the supported application on the computer (Outlook, Address Book) or from iCloud or other cloud service.
