What is the easiest way to upgrade multiple iphone 4's to iphone 5's?

I work for a small company.  We have 11 iPhones (10 4's and 1 3GS) and we are upgrading everyone to iPhone 5's.  Each phone is managed by it's owner and either synced to a home computer, a business computer or through iCloud.  Is there an easy way to transfer everything between the old phones and new phones?

The number of devices is irrelevant as there is no mass way to migrate multiple devices.
Each device is upgraded/replaced one at a time.

    Yes, there's been no updates to 10.5.8 for quite awhile, next is paid Upgrades.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It looks like they might still have it...
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory, I say 6 GB
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, I say 50 GB.
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

  • What is the easiest way to upgrade from OS X 10.4.11 to 10.5 Leopard

    what is the easiest way to upgrade from OS X 10.4.11 to 10.5 Leopard

    You should consider this:
    Here are the minimum specs your Mac will need to run Leopard, according to Apple:
    Intel, G5, or 867MHz+ G4 processor
    512 megs of RAM MINIMUM (though if you only have 512 megs of RAM you may actually find you need more.)
    DVD drive (Leopard is shipping on a DVD, and your Mac needs to read it to be able to install it)
    9GB of free disk space
    Hope this helps

    That is exactly what I've been doing.

    I had hoped there was an easier - or at least more direct and simpler way.
    Thanks anyway.

    What is the easiest way to enter a calendar event on an iPhone in a time zone which is different to one in which one is at present?  Can this synchronise with Outlook, which allows for time zones to be set manually for each event?
    This was easy on my old iPhone 4S, on which (exactly as in outlook) you manually defined a time zone for each event - but this function no longer seems to work on my new iPhone 5S.

  • Emac upgrade: What's the easiest way to upgrade from OS 10.2.8 to OS 10.3?

    I just gave my Emac to my parents...I want to upgrade from OS 10.2.8 to OS 10.3 and continue upgrading so the computer is as current as it can be. What is recommended? Downloading OS 10.3 from Mac downloads and progressing through upgrades until I hit OS 10.5 or is there an easier way? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Right now, I can't upgrade at all until the system gets OS 10.3. At least, that's what the downloads page is telling me.
    Thanks for your time...Steeler58

    The version of Mac OS X 10.2 you have, 10.2.8, is the highest you can get for free. You cannot download Mac OS X 10.3; that has always been something you would have to pay for. The same applies to Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard); each would be a separate purchase at retail. If it were me and my machine, I'd skip 10.3 and find a retail copy of Mac OS X 10.4. You may still be able to purchase 10.4 from the Apple Store if you call them (it is not available for order from the Apple Store via the Web). You may also be able to find a copy through one of the computer dealers that specializes in discontinued software or through eBay. You must get the full retail version; a system installer disk intended for some other model of Mac will usually not work and is not legally licensed for separate sale and use on other systems.
    Note that the normal 10.4 installer only came on DVD - CDs were only available via special order - so your eMac will need to have a DVD-capable drive, either a Combo drive or a SuperDrive.

  • What is the easiest way to upgrade 100  Ipads to IOS5.

    Got 100 brand new Ipads, want to upgrade them all to IOS 5.  Right now I'm having to register every one, naming them all like they should be, and then manually upgrading each one.  Please tell me there is an easier way.  I see Lion Server lets you manage them, but I'm not sure if that would include upgrading.  Probably in the next 6 months, we're going to be responsible for another 100-200, so I'd like to have something in place.  I've used the Iphone Config Utility to setup the wireless and make a few changes, but nothing really big.  Would a MDM be able to upgrade them?  Is Lion Server an actual MDM?
    Thanks for any help.

    This says that you can update IOS.  Gonna play with it later.

  • What is the easiest way to sync multiple ipads to one computer

    Is it possible to (easily) sync multiple (10) Ipads to one computer?  My hope is to have all ten sales reps in the field, with the same info on their ipads.

    I wouldn't say that it is easily done, but it can be done, the reason I don't say easily is because it has to be done individually one at a time. And I assume that you are talking about all ten having the same apps?

    I have a mid year 2007 24 inch iMac and will be purchasing a new 27 inch Retina iMac, what is the easiest way to transfer the data and files from my old machine to the new one?

    Following up on this thread,
    I have a new iMac on the way and my current is from 2008, never had a problem but I am sure there are internal issues that I would prefer not to transfer.
    I have no issues other then the slowness in certain programs and that is the main reason to buy a new one.
    Programs like numbers and pages seem to take a longer time to open after I update to Yosemite.
    I only use 272GB of 500 GB, my memory is 4GB and I am upgrading to 8Gb and bought the 4.0 processor.
    Question:
    Is there a way to manually transfer items or would that be a waste of time in that if there are issues they could be anywhere and would transfer anyway?

  • What is the easiest way to create alias email addresses in exchange 2013?

    For example my official domain is [email protected]
    Within my company i want to make it look like certain departments are sending from bicycles.com skateboards.com
    and skooters.com and receive to those addresses even though the emails are really going through the
    [email protected] domain. but it appears to be coming from three other domains.
    appearance is everything. What is the easiest way to accomplish this.
    Step by step with examples if possible. I am not well versed in exchange server 2013 yet.
    Droid Hacker

    In Exchange 2013 you can use the ECP to add additional email addresses to mailboxes. In order for a mailbox to send using an address, that address needs to be set as the reply address. One mailbox cannot send as multiple addresses. Doing that would require
    a mailbox for each address. To set a new primary address on a mailbox log into the ECP and choose mailboxes under the recipients option on the left. Then search for the mailbox you want to add the address to and click the edit symbol. Navigate to the
    Email Address tab on the left. To set a new primary address you will likely need uncheck the box for "Automatically update email addresses based on the email address policy applied to this recipient". Then click the plus button, enter the new address,
    and check the box for "Make this the reply address"
    Before you do this you should ensure that the proper MS records exist for these other domains, and that they are properly configured for mail flow. Once you set this as the reply address for a mailbox, that is the address external users will use for replies.

  • What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

    Hi Everyone
    i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
    Cheers
    Liv

    If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
    If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
    Your question as posed was:
    What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
    in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.

  • What's the easiest way to back up and restore my hard drive to a new HD

    I'm going to upgrade my hard drive to a larger one on my MacBook. I have an external backup drive. What is the easiest way to save all my data (documents, emails, etc) and applications and restore them to the new hard drive in my MacBook? I have Leopard OS.
    I've read on the forum everything from using Time Machine to the Disk Utility. I have been backing up everything to my external HD using Time Machine.
    Can you point me to a step by step process.

    I don't use TM, so here's my method that I've used many times for the same thing you are doing.
    How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
    4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Now, boot from the clone to be sure it works correctly by opening Startup Disk, selecting the external volume, then clicking the Restart button. If all is well the computer will boot from the external drive. Now shut down the computer and disconnect the external drive. Disconnect the AC adapter and remove the battery. Install the new hard drive. Once you've completed the installation connect the external drive and restart the computer.
    Now do the following:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your new hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but recommended for a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
    After formatting is completed use DU to clone the external drive's system back to the new internal drive. The external drive becomes the Source and the internal drive will be the Destination.

  • Im new to Mac and wanted to know what is the easiest way to transfer files from a mac computer and mac extenal hardrive to windowns and vice versa?

    Im new to Mac and wanted to know what is the easiest way to transfer files from a mac computer and mac extenal hardrive to windowns and vice versa?

    For small amount of files, a regular USB stick or drive, it's already formatted with a MBR and FAT32 most likely which works both on PC's and Mac's.
    External drives if you need more space.
    However FAT (or Fat32 or MSDOS) has a 4GB file size limit. So if your transfering files bigger than that then you need to format it exFAT on the Windows machine.
    Vista and Win 7 can do this, Windows XP one can download a free exFAT upgrade from Microsoft.
    Mac's can read/write the MBR and FAT/exFAT (10.6.5 and later) formats, it's best to format it on the Windows machine, even though the Mac can format it too, it's better to do it on Windows then take it to the Mac to confirm.
    Rack your brain here on it.
