Finally, you bought yourself a brand new iPad Pro,
but now what might rack your brain is, how to transfer your favorite songs,
apps, movies, ebooks and lots of other useful data from old iPad to your brand
new iPad. Here we will walk you through the process and achieve the simple iPad
to iPad transfer with tutorials.
In the following iPad to iPad transfer tutorials, we will
show you how to transfer data from old iPad to your brand new iPad with iCloud
and iTunes. And we will introduce non-Apple way as well, with Syncios iPad
Transfer. Off course, each way has its pluses and its minuses, which we will
also walk you through.
Key Features of iPad to PC Transfer
The original way is to open your iTunes. By doing so, you
can transfer iPad data to your new iPad via local hard drive of your PC. But we
all know that iTunes is too heavy and clumsy. It often takes up much of the CPU
usage and slow down everything in PC. And data transfer speed is rather slow.
The backup file just contains parts of the iPad data, not all of them. There is
also an erasing function during synchronization. People will often get their
data erased when they forget to disable this function.
1. Connect old iPad to PC — Launch iTunes (To
prevent erasing data from iPad, click to "Edit > Preferences >
Devices" and check the option "Prevent iPod, iPhone, iPad from
syncing automatically") and connect the old iPad to the computer.
2. Backup old iPad — Click the name of your iPhone
from the iTunes menu on the top right. Then choose “Back Up”. Let the iPad
backup finish within iTunes, keep iTunes open but disconnect the old iPad from
the computer.
3. Restore new iPad from iTunes — Turn the new
iPad on. At the “Set Up iPad” screen choose “Restore from iTunes Backup” then
tap “Next”.
4. Connect new iPad — Connect the iPad to the
computer and within iTunes choose the most recent backup from the restore menu.
5. Transfer data to new iPad via iTunes — Click
“Continue” and let the restore via iTunes take place, do not disconnect the
iPad until the transfer is completed and the iPad has rebooted.
Note: The backup doesn’t contain your music, your movies.
The restore will put back, what is part of the backup. Other things will need
to sync to restore to the new iPad.
With iCloud, you can store your files, music, apps, etc. on
one iPad and retrieve it on another without PC. iCloud is a way far better than
iTunes for its all-dimensions data backup, anytime, anywhere. You can do your
iPad to iPad transfer at high speed with fast connection. But it's not without
flaws.
(1)Both of your iPad need to be with iOS 5 or later;
(2)Service is unavailable without Wifi;
(3)You have only 5 GB space and need to pay for the exceeded
part. If you download music or files from other sources, you will also need to
pay for storage;
(4)Very slow for apps transferring;
(5)There is file security and private risk under remote
environment.
1. Set up iCloud — Have iCloud set up on both of
your iPad.
2. Find backup setting — Launch “Settings” and tap
on iCloud on old iPad, then tap on “Storage & Backup”.
3. Initiate iCloud backup — Tap on “Back Up Now”
to initiate a manual iCloud back up. Wait till the backup finished.
4. Restore from iCloud Backup — At the “Set Up
iPad” screen on your new iPad, choose “Restore from iCloud Backup” and tap
“Next”.
5. Retrieve data from new iPad — Login to your
iCloud account and choose the most recent backup from the old iPad you just
made. Tap on “Restore” to transfer the data from the old iPad backup to the new
iPad.
