Re: Questions About Getting The 5S...

Hi, before you do your iced tunes back up to your PC don't forget to transfer 
your purchases from your iPhone. Before you do the backup iTunes will tell you 
that you have apps that have not been transferred from your iPhone it actually 
says purchases. Do this before the back up, and all of your apps will be there 
and will be downloaded to your phone once you have once you were ready to 
restore from the backup. God bless, Wren

Re: Questions About Getting The 5S...

Hi,
When I got my 5S at the AT&T store, one of their customer reps transferred 
my contacts from my old phone to the new one.  I didn't think about 
restoring from my last iCloud backup and should have because it would have 
saved me a considerable amount of work.  I ended up downloading many of my 
apps on a piecemeal basis, which was okay because it allowed me to take 
stock of all the 184 apps that I'd purchased since I bought my iPhone 4 and 
install only the ones that were essential for me and reorganize them the way 
I wanted to. On my next pass through the app store I'll pick up the games 
and other odds and ends that I don't use on a daily basis.

Hi Andy,

No need to do that if you have done an iCloud or iTunes backup and if you
restore from that backup. It won't actually backup the apps, but it will
backup your homescreen layout and which apps you had on the phone and they
will automatically download one by one.

Do an iCloud backup on your 4s before you pick up your new phone. When you

I am planning to pick it up tomorrow.
I have had my Iphone 4S for about two years now so have tons of

For those of you who upgraded from a previous Iphone (such as the 4,

If I just log into Icloud will everything automatically download such

What was your experience like transferring your stuff over and how did

Do an iCloud backup on your 4s before you pick up your new phone. When you 
get your new phone, you can restore from that backup. You can do likewise by 
backing up with iTunes on your PC. As far as apps are concerned, when you 
get your new phone, you can go into the App Store and redownload your
