Hi Pablo,
Maybe Ed somehow overlooked the line that your 5S is coming anyways,
anyhow,
I think I understand what you need to do.
You are getting the 5S as your personal phone and want to get rid of your
iPhone 4 and transfer all content to your new 5S, right?
Just to get this out of the way: when you receive your 5S, make sure the
first thing you do after turning it on is to press the home key 3 times.
This will start Voiceover. I actually recommend you do all the stuff below
first as far as backing up your iPhone 4, then when you are ready to set
up
your iPhone 5S, just connect it to your computer and iTunes. Don't touch
anything, just take it out of the box, take off the plastic front and back
protectors and plug in the Lightning cable, then wait. Plugging it in will
turn it on and there will be a double vibrate once it's booted up. Wait
another 10 or so seconds after that to make sure it's ready, then press
the
home key 3 times and Voiceover will come on. You then have to choose your
language, your country, join your WiFi, enter your Apple Id, opt into
iMessage, Facetime and iCloud, turn on Find my iPhone, set up Touch ID
etc.
This might be in slightly different order, but it's close. When you set up
Touch ID make sure you put just one finger on the home button and do it as
many times as it asks for it. Do it by slightly rotating your finger and
by
putting different parts on it, just the tip, the sides, a bit further back
etc. Once it took about 10 or 12 readings it should tell you that it's
ready
and later on you can go to Settings, General, Passcode and Fingerprint and
set up more fingers. You will also have to choose a 4-digit passcode and
remember that if you ever turn off your phone or reboot it, you will have
to
enter your passcode the first time, only after that will Touch ID work to
unlock your phone.
It is also quite likely that after the setup process finishes you will be
told that there is an iOS update since my phone had only iOS 7.0 on it and
before I did anything else I installed the iOS 7.02 update.
I also believe that the high quality voice does not download
automatically.
Maybe it would have in time, but I went to Settings, General,
Accessibility,
Voiceover, Languages and Dialects and then double tapped on US English and
then I could turn on to use the enhanced voice, it started downloading as
soon as I turned it on.
I also turned on Reduced Motion in the main Accessibility settings.
OK, so, here is what you do with your iPhone 4:
First, make a backup of your iPhone 4, you can back it up to iCloud or to
your iTunes, I suggest you do both. I would also take this as an
opportunity
and go over all the apps and if there are any you don't use or rarely use
I
would delete them from your phone, they are not lost to you and if you
decide you want them back on your 5S later you can always redownload them.
I actually prefer to back up to iCloud but also to do a manual backup to
iTunes and I always choose the option to do an encrypted backup which
backs
up certain passwords as well and it's a better option if you do a backup
to
iTunes anyways.
Under the Summary tab once your phone is connected you have to tab a lot
of
times, maybe 30 times, to get to it. It's a checkbox and as soon as you
check it you are asked to select a password. You can choose a relatively
simple password here, it's only on your computer and not that critical,
just
make sure after you enter it the first time to tab once and re-enter it to
confirm, then tab to OK and press it. You should hear Jaws announce a
percentage as your backup is going on.
OK, now once you backed up your phone you have taken care of your phone's
settings, home screen layout, any text messages and so on will be restored
etc.
I don't know how you store and sync your email and contacts so here you
probably have to figure out yourself how you get those back.
I personally use Office 365 for my business which is full hosted exchange
and I use Outlook.com (used to be Hotmail/Windows Live) for my personal
email and contacts.
Both of these services store email, contacts and calendar info in the
cloud
and the Office 365 service also syncs Notes in Outlook with the Notes app
on
my iPhone.
In my case when I received my 5S yesterday I first set it up as a new
device, then I hooked it up to iTunes and restored my encrypted backup.
Since my backup included my email account information and since all my
mail
and contacts are stored in the cloud, as soon as the restore finished and
I
went into Mail I only had to enter the passwords for my Office 365 account
and for the 2 Outlook.com accounts I use personally and everything was
back.
Lastly, media such as music, photos and so on have to be synced, they are
not included in the backup. I decided to unsync all my music from my
iPhone
4S before since I figured I would like to take a look at it again anyways
to
see if I really want it all on my phone. I can easily put all my 26 Gb of
music on my 64 Gb phone and have room to spare, but I really don't use my
iPhone a lot for music since I am very big into audio books and if I am on
a
long flight or waiting somewhere I rather listen to an audio book than to
music.
OK, good luck, once you have your new iPhone 5S setup and it's all good I
suggest you do a restore of your iPhone 4 by hooking it up to iTunes. This
will reinstall iOS 7 and wipe everything. Once the restore finishes you
would normally go to your phone and go through the setup process of
selecting language, country, entering your Apple ID etc. I would then just
disconnect it and give it to your friend and he can go through that and
set
it up the way he/she wants.
Regards,
Sieghard

Good morning ED.
Yes, english is not my main language, but let me clarify this;
1. What does "Even though" mean for you?
When I say that I cancelled my order, even though USPS sent me a
notification that my iPhone 5s will arrive today, what does that mean
for you?
In spanish, that means that when I did something to stop the process
buying a iPhone 5s, t-mobile sent the iPhone 5s anyway.
2. Later I say that I want to transfer my contacts, email account from
my old iPhone 4, to the new one, it means the iPhone 5s that is
arriving today. Why you understand that I want to merge both iDevices
personal and business together?
Yes, I know that english is not my main language, and I am so
thankful with your concern about my english. Even though, I do not see
that my email doesn't make sense.
I hope that my responses are clear for you.

Good morning Pablo, I realize that english may not be your first

your message does not make any sense, at the top of your message you
indicate that you have cancelled your order for an iPhone 5S, however; at
the bottom you indicate that you want to transfer all content from your
iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5S
Next question, are you keeping your iPhone 5 as the business phone and
the
new iPhone 5S will be your personal iPhone or are you trying to integrate
all the stuff unto one phone.
Hope these questions help us get to the bottom of your query.

Hi all.
Well, a few days, this last Thursday, I cancelled my order with t-mobile
for
an iPhone 5s that I bought with them, because the delay for the delivery.
Even though, yesterday, I received a notification from USPS saying that
my
iPhone 5s comes today. It is crazy.
Well, the point is this. I have 2 iPhones, one for personal things,iPhone
4,
and other for business iPhone 5. Both has different content and different
apple account.
Now, I don't know, what I have to do to replace the functionality of my
older iPhone 4. I mean,I want to give my iPhone 4 to my friend, and
transfer
the apple account to my new iPhone 5s, contacts, business email account,
bookmarks, personal email account, personal phone book, and apps.
What I have to do, to transfer the whole content of my older iPhone 4, to
a
new iPhone 5s?
Thanks in advance.
Pablo
