And, although not often, but still there is such a situation when you want to throw off a friend’s video from the last trip, installation file for any program, or, say, you need to download a file from your home computer to a working one. In the article I will tell you several ways that will help you transfer the file from computer to computer.
The first and easiest way is to do the usual copying files. To do this, we need a flash drive with sufficient memory, CD or DVD disc. If the files take up a lot of space, you can use external hard disk. We insert the USB flash drive into the USB connector and copy the data, the external one is also connected hDD. We simply write files to a CD or DVD, for this you may need to install special program for burning discs. Then we just give the recorded device to a friend.
Essence fourth way lies in using file hosting. This can help you if your friends or relatives live in another city, and there is no way to directly connect two computers or transfer a USB flash drive. Today, there are many file hosting services: Cloud Mail.ru, Dropbox, Yandex Disk, Google Drive. The essence, in principle, is the same for everyone. Previously, I already wrote an article and you can read them simply by clicking on the links. Install the selected program on both computers. Then add desired file to the local cloud storage folder located on the computer, after which automatic synchronization with the cloud takes place. Next, another user starts the file hosting from his computer, logs in using the same mailbox and password as you. Synchronization is in progress and a local folder with downloaded files is also created on his computer. Now he can view them, copy, or even add something of his own to the folder. If you do not want to disclose your username and password, you can create a link to the file in your file hosting service and send it to a friend. In this case, he will be able to watch or download it.
The fifth way is using TeamViewer on computers. You can read the article on the link. This method will help a lot if at work you need a file that is stored on your home computer. With TeamViewer, you can easily download it. A little clarification - you need to home computer in this case was included. Also, through TeamViewer, when creating a connection, you can download and view files from another computer.
That’s probably all. - we figured it out. Choose a method suitable for you and, I am sure, everything will turn out.

Therefore, the purchase of a new device is a joy, and at the same time a tragedy, and stress for many. How to convey information without experiencing a nervous breakdown is quite simple.
There are two options for transferring program data from iPhone to iPhone. Which one is right for you to decide. Each of them has its pros and cons, which you will learn about now. I hope, having studied this article, you will know how to transfer information from an old smartphone to a new one yourself.
Data Transfer Using iCloud
ICloud was developed by Apple specifically for iPhones and is installed on almost all iPhone devices 3, 3S, 4, 4S, 5, 5S, 6, 6S, 7, 7 plus and beyond.
This so-called “Cloud” program provides for the possibility of transferring, storing all information from an iPhone to a virtual Internet network to a special platform, access to which is only available to you thanks to your ID and key. The process of transferring information from iPhone to another iPhone consists of the following steps.
Activating iCloud on iPhone
To begin with, we check the availability of WI-FI connection in the iPhone for working with the Internet. Next, we find out whether iCloud is activated in the old iPhone. If for some reason it is not activated, then it must be turned on by going to the "Settings" menu of your smartphone. In the "Settings" menu, select the iCloud cloud function. In the screen that opens, we see the cloud settings, the amount of available storage, which is very important, since transferring information to the cloud can have a rather large amount of gigabytes and not fit on it, which may disappoint you.
To prevent this from happening, you should in the settings of your smartphone check the amount of information stored on it that will be transferred. The cloud can accommodate about 5 gigabytes. If the data transfer is greater than the specified volume, then first you need to expand the volume of the cloud, buying an additional area. If this option is not beneficial for you, then note that you can transfer the amount of data from iphone to the cloud only within 5 GB. For example, you can transfer a ringtone from iPhone to iPhone, while the ringtone for iPhone will be transferred completely free of charge.
We activate the program itself in iCloud settings, if it is not activated, the icon should show “on”. Then we activate all the sections of information that we want to transfer (photos, books, mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, notes, applications) - all that you need to save and install in a new iPhone. To do this, drag the activation icon to the right of each section of information (it should turn green).
If all the necessary sections of information are activated, we press the iCloud Drive function, and a new window opens in which we activate the specified function in the same way, allowing the programs to copy and store documents, as well as data in the iCloud storage. Visually it looks like this.
After the program is launched, activate the “Find iPhone” icon in order to subsequently find, block or erase this iPhone, as well as prevent it from being erased or re-activated without your password.
Copy data to the cloud
Next, open the "Storage and copies" section, it contains messages about the date and time of the last copy. In the backup that appears on the screen, turn on the Backup icon. Pay attention once again that the Keychain function is turned off, and the Find iPhone function is turned on. Next, activate the "Backup in iCloud" process, and then tap the button "Create" at the bottom backup».
The step of copying data and documents from your iPhone to cloud storage launched. Information on the time and volume of the copied documents will be displayed on the screen, the very throwing of documents will be shown as “Creating a copy”. When a lot of file data was stored in the smartphone, this process will take a fairly long period of time. It looks like this
After the entire copied amount of data is sent to the cloud, you can clear old phone from the content, bringing it to the factory default state.
But before that, be sure to save the individual ID number and registration password to enter the Cloud from another smartphone.
Reset all data on iPhone
To do this, turn on the iPhone, and in the "Settings" menu, select the line "Cellular Data Network". Then, on the screen that opens, we find the “Reset Settings” command, then select “Reset Content and Settings”. The process of resetting the smartphone to the factory settings is activated, and after a few minutes the phone will restart, all your data will disappear, as if you just bought this device.
It remains to complete the process of downloading all data from the Cloud to your new iphone. To do this, turn it on, select a language, say, Russian, refuse the proposed connection to the geolocation service, turn on the WI-FI network and enter the settings for the new iPhone. From the proposed connection options, select the option to copy - “restore from iCloud copy”.
At the end of this step, Apple will ask you to enter the ID number and access code that you specially saved for access. After entering the requested data, iPhone will start the data recovery process. 
The terms of the agreement that will be requested must be accepted by clicking the “Accept” button. Then select from backup latest version, which must be sent from the cloud by clicking on the selected date for copying data.
The process of copying data to your iPhone and the process of setting up an old smartphone has started. It will take a little time depending on the amount of information being transferred. The process itself and its duration will be displayed on the screen.
After a while, the iPhone will open the main menu, which displays all the programs and applications from the old smartphone.
The process of recovering all the data stored on the cloud, as well as transferring it to your iPhone, will be completed when the smartphone restarts, and information on successful data recovery will appear on the screen. Click the Continue button.
You will see a window with the restoration of all settings. The smartphone will make settings for a little while, after which new smartphone will be filled with all stored information. We can consider the stage of data transfer from iPhone to iPhone completed.
Copy data using iTunes
There is another way how to transfer data from iPhone to iPhone can be - transfer using a PC via iTunes. For this, this given software application must be installed on your pc. If such a program is not available on your PC, then it is not difficult to download it on the Internet by going to the official website of the developer. It is copied for free, fast and easy.

After all the files have been reset from the iPhone to the PC, disconnect the iPhone from the PC, reconnect the new iPhone via the USB cable to the PC. Now, from a computer, information will transfer its entire volume to a new iPhone. To this end, in the main menu of the smartphone’s screen “Settings”, select the proposed option “Restore from copies of iTunes", And then confirm the backup of all data from the backup. After recovery, patiently wait for the program to synchronize the program data. Copying is over, you can disconnect the iPhone from the PC.

4. Transfer information to a new iPhone
To activate and use the new iPhone, you need to insert a SIM card into it.
If you are switching from an old iPhone to a new one (for example, from 4S to 5S, then you will need to change the size of the SIM card from micro SIM to NANO SIM. To do this, just call the operator’s help number and contact the consultant and say that you want to replace your micro SIM on NANO SIM card, you will be asked to provide your passport data and if you need to change your SIM card urgently, then getting a new SIM card within 24 hours costs about 200 rubles, but you can order delivery of a new SIM card for free, then it will be delivered in a couple of days. )
Or you can go to the salon yourself cellular communications your operator (taking your passport with you) and say there that you want to change the micro SIM card to a Nano SIM card. But once again I will repeat this only if you switch from a 4S iPhone to a 5, 5C, 5S or a sixth iPhone. Since the new iPhones use only Nano SIM cards, because they are smaller and take up less space in the phone.
By the way, I switched from iPhone 4S to 5S and noticed the changes that I described in the article.
After you receive a nano sim on your hands after about 15 minutes, a message will be sent to your number saying that work will now be done with your number. And your old micro SIM card will be disabled for you to work only nano sim. To activate the iPhone and start setting up, a SIM card must be inserted into it
