Trying to move info from my iphone 3G iOS4.2.1 to iphone4

I have an iphone 3G which is running on iOS 4.2.1, I have just got myself a lovely iphone4 and want to send my contacts photos etc across to the new one. I can not get icloud on my 3G and it was linked to my computer which has now broken, so the one I now use does not do alot to my iphone when I plug it in Ive just been geting the photos off and been ok with that. Now I have my new one I want to sync it with this computer (a PC) and use it to its full potential. I went to the apple store and they told me to go to 'advanced' in itunes (but I cant see what they mean). Ive kept my icloud turned off as they said but really want to get it working and get my contacts onto the new phone. can anyone help Im stuck. :s

You can enter a unique contact and calendar item on your computer.  This should prompt the option to merge the data when you first sync.
You can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the comptuer:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You can e-mail photos sync ed to iphone from the old computer - they will never be of the orginal quality, as they are reduced when syncing to the iphone.

    I have a Lucid 2 LG.  I have been having trouble with insuffient storage.  I have a 8G phone and have spent hours with Tier 2 tech trying to move info from the internal storage to the SD card with no luck,  When I go to storage in the settings it states that over 4 gigs is for Misc?  System data takes up over 4 gigs.  No one can tell me what system data consist of.  So My question is does anyone know what system data is?  I am assuming I have a 8 gigphone but can only use 4 gigs???

    System data is the OS or operating system.  That is where the recovery stays separated from the rest of the storage so that it doesn't get corrupted.  It is not accessible and non-movable.

  • HT4623 Have a new iphone 5 and trying to transfer info from old iphone. Seems like the new phone is stuck on the choose backup page and I cant seem to get it to move. Help!?

    Have a new Iphone and trying to set up. Got to the page choose back up and both old phone and ipad are showing but cant select either and its just sitting there. what should i be doing?

    You can transfer the purchases you made on your old iPhone 3 by plugging it in to iTunes and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from your IPhone to the iTunes on your computer.  This will get music you purchased in iTunes, apps, etc.  (e.g., movies).
    But for the rest you would need to restore a backup of your newly deceased computer.

  • How do I move info from old iPhone to new one?

    Could someone please help me understand how to migrate the info on my old iPhone to my new one? Thanks!

    Basically, you sync your old iPhone to your computer, then connect the new one and set it up using the backup of the old phone when prompted to do that.

  • Just got an iphone 5s, I'm trying to transfer info from old phone but it's for a password to unlock iphone backup, I;ve never had a password for this before. How do I get the password?

    Hi,
    I've just bought an Iphone 5s, I'm trying to sync it to transfer all my info from my iphone 4 but when I click on continue to restore from this back up, it's asking for a password. I didn't have a password for the previous phone. Can anyone help?

    If the backup you're trying to restore from is encrypted, & you don't know the encrypted passcode, the backup will be unusable & you will not be able to recover any data from it. Encrypting an iPhone backup is not done automatically. You, or someone, had to elect to encrypt it to begin with, and no, there is no default passcode.
    Did you have an Exchange account on your iPhone 4? It is common for Corp. Exchange accounts to require an iPhone backup be encrypted. If you did, you might try your Exchange password.

  • HT1296 I am trying to sync contacts from my iPhone to Mac.  When I plug in my iPhone, I do not get the Info tab in iTunes (as mentioned in how to sync on this website).  How can I get the info tab to appear?

    Since the release of Mavericks (OS X 10.9) syncing contacts and calendars with a Mac via iTunes is no longer supported. The currently supported method is via iCloud. Setup instructions: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

  • MOVE CONTACT INFO FROM MY IPHONE 3 TO MY IPHONE 4S?

    HOW DO I MOVE CONTACT INFO FROM MY IPHONE 3 TO MY IPHONE 4S?

    If you've been using a mac to sync, then the contacts may be in your Apple Address Book.  If so, then connect the iPhone 4s to your mac and in the device settings, indicate that you want the address book to sync with the iphone.
    Oh,  your caps lock key is sticking.  Upper case is considered shouting.

    If you go to Settings do you see an entry for the Nike app? There is no way to delete or hide that app?
    Have you tired using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find it.
    Next would be to restore a gain. First from backup then next to factory settings/new iPod.
    The Nike app you can download/install
    Nike+ Running for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad on the iTunes App Store
    Does work on the iPOd. You just do not get all the information that GPS/cellular connection can get. You will still be able to get distance/footstrikes like the installed app an you do not need the shoe sensor.. It uses the built-in sensors on the iPod

    Regards James

    Connect to your pc with the USB cable.  Open Windows Explorer.  Give it a minute to update.  Navigate to Computer/iPhone.  Double click the Internal Storage folder, then any DCIM folder, then any folders under DCIM.  Your pix and videos taken with the phone are there.  Select, copy and paste onto your pc wherever you like.

  • How do i move pictures from one iphone to another?

    How do I move pictures from one iphone to another?

    Photos in the Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup. You can transfer the backup from one iPhone to another which will include all data included with the backup.
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer. After importing from one iPhone, the photos can be transferred to another iPhone via the iTunes sync process.
    Photos in the PhotoStream on one iPhone running iOS 6 can be made available on another iPhone running iOS 6 by creating a shared PhotoStream album, or if the same iCloud account is accessed on both iPhones, the PhotoStream album will be identical on each iPhone.

    How do I move pictures from old iphone to new iphone

    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.)
