[iMore Question]

Just been gifted iPhone5 to replace my iPhone4. I don't know how to port all the contacts and apps to the newer phone. Help?

Simply do an iCloud or am iTunes backup of your old iPhone and then restore that backup to your newer iPhone.

You can first backup your old iPhone to iTunes and then restore your new iPhone with the backup files.
Step 1. Connect your old iPhone to computer > Open iTunes > Click the iOS device name.
Step 2. Tap "This computer" button > Choose "Back Up Now" on Backups column.
Step 3. Tap "This Computer" button > Tick "Encrypt iPhone/iPad backup" to enter into password.
Step 4. After the backup, connect your new iPhone to computer > Choose Restore Backup in Backups column > Choose backup to restore.

Hi

Use iCloud or iTunes to back up your device and use that backup on your new device
