    Question about 4 to 4S

    Have the 4, getting the 4S tomorrow. My question is, when I get the 4S and plug it into iTunes, will my contacts/apps transfer to it or will I have to start all over downloading apps, etc.?

    My only experience was syncing iTunes with my daughter's replacement iPod Touch. Everything tranferred over without any issues. I assume the iPhone is the same. I will get to test this again as my daughter's iPod just went through a wash cycle. Dam kids.

    Short answer yes or no.

    Long answer yes, if you restore your backup, no if you don't.
    iPad 3 16GB (our couch play toy, pretty much my fiances!)

    iPhone 5 16GB on Verizon (love that LTE!)
