These support pages should get you started with setup of your new iPad - and the methods of transferring your data from old to new iPad:

Set up your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support

Transfer data from your previous iOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support


If the donor iPad, from which you are transferring your data precedes iOS12.4, QuickStart will not be available.


“Transfer” is rather a misnomer. In reality, your data and setup is merely cloned to the new device. Nothing is moved or removed from the original device.


An alternative is to restore either an iCloud or iTunes backup to the new device:

I have a new ipad. The Quick start proped up when I first used it this afternoon. But my transfer failed. I think maybe because my iphone is too old. Then I transfered all iems from my old iphone to a new iphone sucessfuly. And I tried to transfer the items on the new Iphone to my new ipad, but the quick start function won't prop up again. How can I go to the Quick Start again on my ipad? Thanks.
