Q: How long does it take to transfer iTunes computer backup to new iPhone 6s?

How long does it take to transfer an iTunes computer backup to the new iPhone 6s?  My old 5s phone had almost a full 64GB stored info - I am currently 1 hour into the transfer and the message remains; "waiting for items to copy".  Many thanks

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), iOS 7, itunes 10.7

    That amount of storage is pretty large and if that is the correct figure. It would not be out of the realm of possibility for a backup that size to take a couple of hours or maybe even a little longer to restore. Be patient. If you get past two hours or so and see no progress, then post back.
