I will transfer data from my iPhone X to 14 Max Pro tomorrow. But have a feeling I have spyware on my X. With a side by side transfer, will that also transfer the spyware. Is there a way to determine that there is spyware. I had many irrgeular drains on my charge. Then everything would be fine. Don't want to ruin my new phone.
iPhone X, iOS 16
Greetings cwatson50,
If you’re concerned about data or settings on your iPhone X, then restoring a backup or transferring data may not be ideal. The following articles have some information on ways to transfer data between devices and what is transferred versus redownloaded. However, you’ll also find good information provided as you’re walking through the steps on your iPhone, if you have a moment to read them during the process.
Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone or iPad
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup
Turn on and set up your iPhone
1. Press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.
2. If iPhone doesn’t turn on, you might need to charge the battery. For more help, see the Apple Support article If your iPhone won’t turn on or is frozen.
3. Do one of the following:
• Tap Set Up Manually, then follow the onscreen setup instructions.
• If you have another iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 11, iPadOS 13, or later, you can use Quick Start to automatically set up your new device. Bring the two devices close together, then follow the onscreen instructions to securely copy many of your settings, preferences, and iCloud Keychain. You can then restore the rest of your data and content to your new device from your iCloud backup.
Or, if both devices have iOS 12.4, iPadOS 13, or later, you can transfer all your data wirelessly from your previous device to your new one. Keep your devices near each other and plugged into power until the migration process is complete.
You can also transfer your data using a wired connection between your devices. See the Apple Support article Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
• During setup, if you’re blind or have low vision, you can triple-click the side button (on an iPhone with Face ID) or triple-click the Home button (on other iPhone models) to turn on VoiceOver, the screen reader. You can also double-tap the screen with three fingers to turn on Zoom. See Get started with accessibility features on iPhone.
Thanks.
Thank you for all the references. I will read them.
Thanks for singling out these items. There is so much
on line I get way laid into many other directions.
You are very welcome cwatson50.
Reach back out if you have any questions.
Take care!
