Hello JoeClin,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and congratulations on your new iPhone! We'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you're having issues with transferring data from your iPhone 12 to your iPhone 13. When restoring data to a new iPhone it's important to leave the them near one another. If the new iPhone moves out of range, it attempts to reconnect for 30 minutes. After that, the process must start over from the beginning.


Are both devices close together and connected to a strong Wi-Fi network? If so, how long have you been seeing this message?


Cheers!
