Sounds a good plan, Mary.

Think I'll do some house cleaning on this 4S also because I don't want all the 
apps I have at present, so let's tidy them now!  <Smiles>

  E hi Carol,
  What I plan to do is to get my old phone exactly how I want it with the 
folders and apps I want on my new phone. Then I will make an encrypted backup 
using iTunes. Then, when I get a new phone, I will set that up using  the 
encrypted backup from iTunes. This will not do anything for the music I don't 
think. But it should give me all of my apps and data that are backed up and 
keep my folder structure. So I hope anyway.

    Don't mind that, but there would be a lot to do, so thanks for that one;  
I'll avoid that route.

    I really don't want to download all apps though, so what do I do?

      One thing I can think of with respect to your new phone and just 
downloading the apps you want from the store is that, if you have a lot of 
folders, you won't have those if you use this method. You have to redo 
everything. How good are you at that?

        Hi all,

        I just want to make sure I know the best way to set up things when I 
get my new phone, so please bear with me while I describe what I want to 
achieve:

        I have a phone already and this will continue to be used mainly in 
playing music, already transferred from my iTunes account.  (Some of this had 
been copied from CD's and, although I do have copies elsewhere, I really want 
to ensure iTunes doesn't demolish my music source.

        I have lots of apps on my current phone, some of which I will want to 
transfer or at least have on my new phone and some I will not.

        In addition, I will want to get all of my music onto the new phone also 
and this will be the same music that is on the older one.

        I am thinking of doing this, as follows:
        First, I'll backup my current phone, if I can, using iTunes.

        When it comes to the new one, I'd rather set up as a new iPhone, ensure 
its name is different to the one I've been using, add it to the list of items I 
use that Apple needs to know about and then download those apps I want directly 
from the Store?  Or is there a better way to achieve this without getting 
messed up with two different phones, one computer with iTunes and lots of apps 
to sort?

        When it comes to copying the music, using iTunes and my rather slow 
laptop, will I be safe if I've got different names for each of my phones, but 
they'll share the same account and music?

        If anyone can offer some pointers to help me to do this without too 
many hitches, I'd be most grateful.

        Carol P
