Q: Not enough space

I had a 64 gig 4s, got a new 16gig 5s! How do I transfer my apps and notes only to the new device? I have about 50gigs of pics so it won't transfer everything because there is not enough space, but it won't let me just transfer the apps

    - To transfer app data and the apps and photos in the camera Roll album, backup the old device to iTunes.

    Then remove from the iTunes library apps, music and other media you do not want on the new device. And restore the new device from backup via iTunes.

    - Alternately, delete for the old device enough media and apps yo do not want on the new device and then backup to iTunes and restore the new device from that backup.
