My Ipad is updated till IOS 10 and there is no space for a higher update. I bought the Ipad Air however, i am unable to transfer data using NFS.. If i try to set the Ipad Air manually, there are further complications. The passcode for my old Ipad is 4 digit and the Air is 6 digit etc. Whats the easiest way to do this? I dont own a Mac.
iPad Air, iPadOS 15
Hello vasudev272,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
We understand that you have a new iPad Air and want to transfer the data from your old iPad. Congratulations on the new iPad! Let's see what we can do to get the new iPad set up and working for you. You can take a look at the following support article for your options to set up and transfer the data from the old iPad to the new one.
The Quick Start option will not work in this case because you can't update past iPadOS 10.
If your old iPad is backed up to iCloud, you can restore your new iPad from that backup. Or you can use a backup on a computer using iTunes or Finder. If you don't have a Mac computer, you can use a Windows computer with iTunes installed.
Another option is to enable iCloud for data like Contacts, Calendars, etc. on your older iPad. Then all you need to do on your new iPad is to enable the same iCloud settings and the information will sync between the two devices.

Best regards.
