RE: Data types and cabling two iphones together?
I found Alan's excellent explanation. See if this meets your needs. Read through it completely before deciding. >From Alan: Hi List, I decided to make detailed notes of the steps involved in setting up a new iPhone mainly for my own benefit since I forget what is involved as I only do this every couple of years. In my case, I bought this SE 2020 directly from the Apple Store app with no SIM card included since I have a prepaid Verizon plan and could not specify my carrier successfully when ordering. The below numbered list will be very detailed since I'd rather have too much information than not enough. Any settings provided came from my iPhone 8 running iOS 13.4.1. 1. Opened iTunes on my Windows 7 computer, verified I was running its latest version of 12.10.6, connected my iPhone 8 using the lightning cable, and did an encrypted backup. 2. Did an iCloud backup by going to Settings - Alan Lemly - Apple ID - iCloud - iTunes and App Store, iCloud, iCloud backup, and executing Backup now. 3. I read a lot of books using the BARD Mobile app and since any books downloaded to an iPhone are not transferred to a new restored iPhone, I made a list in an Excel file of the downloaded books I wanted to re-download to my new iPhone and the location of any current reading position in those books. 4. I plugged my lightning cable connected to my computer to the new phone and the Apple logo appeared on the screen. The white screen appeared a few seconds later with the cycling languages appearing and I pressed the home button 3 times quickly to turn on Voiceover. Although I was hearing clicks as I swiped, Voiceover did not start talking until a number of seconds later. In fact, I pressed the home button 3 times again because I wasn't sure I had turned Voiceover on. This turned Voiceover off and I had to press the home button 3 times again to turn it back on and I heard Voiceover say hello and when I swiped once, Voiceover said press home to open. 5. I pressed home and Voiceover said Setup and put me in a list of language buttons with English at the top. I double tapped on English. 6. The screen which opened said Select your country or region heading. I double tapped on the United States button which was the first in the list. 7. The screen which opened said Quick start heading Bring your current iPhone or iPad near this iPhone to sign in and set up. The older iPhone must be using iOS 11 or later with Bluetooth turned on. There was a button at the end to Set up manually. 8. A screen opened on my old iPhone to set up a new iPhone using my apple ID with a button to continue. A screen appeared to position some pattern in a circle but I double tapped the Authenticate manually button instead. 9. I was prompted to input the 6 digit authentication code displayed on my new iPhone using the number pad screen on my old iPhone. My new iPhone then prompted me to enter my passcode of my old iPhone. I had to double tap each number on the on screen number pad on my new iPhone since touch typing was not turned on. 10. I was prompted to set up touch ID on the new iPhone which I did. 11. Several screens were presented asking me to place my finger and lift my finger which I did. I was then taken to a screen which said Adjust your grip and it said keep going to capture the edges of your grip. I double tapped a Continue button at the bottom of this screen. 12. I was then prompted to again place and lift my finger until I got the Complete message. Touch ID is ready was spoken and I then executed the Continue button at the bottom of that screen. 13. The next screen said Transfer your data heading. The explanation said you can directly transfer your data during setup or finish downloading it later. Buttons on this screen were Transfer from iPhone, Download from iCloud, or other options. The Transfer from iPhone said the time to transfer was about 1 hour. The download from iCloud said I could start using my iPhone in about 15 minutes and my data would download later over wifi. I executed the Transfer from iPhone button. 14. I was taken to a Terms and conditions screen on the new iPhone where I double tapped an Agree button in the bottom right corner. 15. I was taken to a Settings from other iPhone heading screen where it listed some settings about allowing Siri to use voice input, contacts, etc. and allowing maps to use my location. I executed the Continue button at the bottom of this screen without customizing any settings. 16. I was taken to a Keep your iPhone up to date heading screen which was basically a commercial for updating iOS automatically. At the bottom of this screen was a Continue button followed by an Install updates manually button. I chose the Install updates manually button. 17. I was then taken to a screen to Add cards to Apple Pay. Instead of executing the Continue button, I chose to Set up later in
RE: Data types and cabling two iphones together?
I have never heard of connecting two phones via a cable. There is an option to set up a new phone over WiFi from your previous phone. Alan Lemley has posted instructions in the past. If I find them, I will repost them unless alan replies sooner.
