How to get apps and text messages from my old iphone (3gs) to my new 4s?

I got an iphone 4s today. Is there anyway I can back up my texts and apps from my 3gs and put them onto my 4s?

Connect to itunes and back it up, then connect the new phone to copy back… Or just use icloud.

Make sure your old iPhone is completely synced to your computer. Then when you plug in the new one during setup it will give you the option of putting all your old stuff on it. It is very easy!

  • Why is my iPhone5 sending some messages as iMessage and others as Text Messages? I understand that messages are sent as Text Messages when there's no signal or poor Wi-Fi connection. However, I'm successfully texting some people using iMessage but others (still iPhone users) as Text messages. The other person will send iMessages and then my responses will be sent as green Text Messages.
  • Why do I receive text messages and missed calls on my old Iphone. How do I stop this? When someone calls me on my new phone, it shows up as "missed call from ___".It doesn't ring on my on my old phone, but after I answer the call on my new phone, it says missed call on the old phone, if that makes sense. I receive text messages from people on my old iphone as well. I use it as my iPod because it could drain the life out of my new phone, so I don't necessarily want to reset the entire phone. I have cellular data off and I'm with Verizon.
