If memory serves, my brother got a message saying the app wasn't
compatible when he tried to restore from an iPhone 4 to the new
iPad. He has a flashlight app on the iPhone that wouldn't work
with the iPad; thus, although other apps were restored, that one
wasn't. Oh, yes, I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6 over the air,
and I, too, lose VoiceOver when I have to do the power and home
button reset. Thus, although I thought I was through with it for
good, I had to install iTunes to get VoiceOver working again.

Yes, as far as I know, you can restore from any iOS device to any
other iOS device. I don't know what happens to device specific
apps such as those specifically for iPad.

I restored my new iPhone 5 today to get it synced with my iTunes
and apps because using iCloud would not restore my music (I do
not currently subscribe to music match), and iCloud was going to
take a very long time.
First, go in to settings, iCloud, and turn off iCloud sync.
1) Launch iTunes.
2) Plug iPhone in to computer USB port
3) Sync should start automatically. If not, activate the sync
button
4) After sync is complete, on the summary tab, find the restore
iPhone button and activate it
5) After iTunes connects to Apple, select yes to back up your
current settings
6) Agree to the terms.
7) ITunes will download the latest iOS software. When complete,
the software will be installed on your iOS device. This will
take some time. Leave the iOS device alone and let the
upgrade/restore take its time.
8) When finished, your iOS device will be restarted and a pop-up
will notify you that the device is restarting.
9) Once the device is restarted and connected to iTunes again,
you will be asked if it is a new device, or restore from back-up.
Though my iPhone 5 is a new phone, I selected restore from
back-up. I then chose the second most recent back-up as that was
the one for my old iPhone 4.
10) I had to leave my iPhone connected for a couple hours whilst
my 20 GB of data: apps, music, and general info, were all loaded
on to my iPhone.
Everything loaded including my folder structure. Unfortunately,
my bookshare books did not load. I must have screwed that part
up when I cancelled the iCloud update. Everything else moved
across without a hitch including my folder structure.

I can usually handle updating software on my Windows machine or
on my BrailleNote, but I am a klutz when it comes to major IOS
updates. The update from IOS 4 to 5 went badly, as did the one
from 5 to 6. Restore from back-up did not bring back my apps; I
had to put them back on manually and then re-create the folders
and move the apps into them so the phone would be organized the
way I want. I am losing faith in the process and in myself.
So, from here on in, I'll just have to remember not to re-boot
the phone unless I'm home and can connect to the PC.
