Upload all photos and videos to iCloud Music Library
Automatic upload of the entire library to the "cloud" iCloud solves problems with the storage and movement of photos and videos.

In general, in our time, people are increasingly changing their smartphones to newer ones. In this regard, the issue of transferring data from one iPhone to another is becoming more and more relevant. We will talk about how you can do this later in the article. Let's figure it out. Go!
In total, there are two ways to transfer information from one iPhone to another:
- Through iCloud.
- Via iTunes.
ICloud data transfer
The first method is perhaps preferable because of its simplicity. First, you need to throw off all the data from your iPhone to iCloud cloud... Open "Preferences" and select "iCloud" from the list. In the window that opens, click on "Storage and copies". Further in the section “ Backup copy"Activate the item" Copy to iCloud ", and then click" Create a copy ".
After the transfer of all data to the cloud is completed, you can clean up your smartphone. This is done by resetting the settings. Please note that the default cloud storage size is not large, and therefore all data may not fit. Make sure all information fits into the cloud before you reset your iPhone.
Now you can grab a brand new iPhone and load data into it. When starting the device for the first time, click "Recover from iCloud copies"In the iPhone Setup window. Next, you need to enter data for authorization and select required backup devices (most likely the last one). After that, the transfer of information from the cloud to the new iPhone will start.
Once the process is complete, the phone will reboot. The system will continue to install applications for a while. This is fine, especially if there are many applications.
Transferring data via iTunes
We figured out the first method, now let's move on to the second. If, for some reason, the option with moving data through iCloud service doesn't work for you, you can achieve the same result using iTunes.
First of all, connect your smartphone to your computer and open iTunes. After the program finds your device, go to it and in the "Backups" block, check "This computer". Next, click on "Create a copy now". In the window that appears, you will be asked to select the parameters for its creation. In it, select "With copies of programs." Once the process is complete, you will see a record of the last backup of the device.

The program will open a window in which you can select desired save(Do not forget to connect a new iPhone to your computer beforehand). Once the transfer is complete, iTunes will sync with your device.
It may happen that an error message appears in the process stating that some objects cannot be moved because you have not authorized the operation on this computer. In this case, go to the program menu and select the "Authorize this computer ..." item. After entering this data, the problem should go away.
Alternative way
There is also a third, alternative way, however, it provides for the use third party funds... You will need to download to your computer special utility which will allow you to work with iPhone content. These utilities include the file managers iTools, iFile, iPhoneBrowser and some others.
In general, this approach is no different from the previous one, only instead of the "native" Aytyuns it is used third party program... If the interface of any of these utilities is more to your liking than the interface of iTunes, then this method is for you.
