Hi there,

Will be purchasing the new iPhone11 Pro to replace my iPhone Xs.

Can I still use my iTunes on my Mac to backup my iPhones Xs and then use the same iTunes to transfer it to the new iPhone11 Pro ?

Thanks so much

Hi there,

I am using Mac, not using the latest OS, mine is only the macOS High Sierra version 10.13.6.

To use the iTunes to backup the iPhone Xs and then transfer to iPhone11 Pro, do I need to upgrade the OS to the latest ?

Thanks

Just update your Xs Max to iOS 13 and use the new wireless transfer to transfer from Xs to 11.

I mean when your new phone is here. iOS 13 will be release on 19 September. Then the next day when your new iPhone arrives, you can just do a wireless transfer during setup. No need iTunes anymore.

Unless you plan to sell the phone before you get the iPhone 11.

Yes 19 September you can update to iOS 13.

Yes you can update through iTunes too but I don’t see a point.

Q3:
When I receive my new iPhone11 Pro, will it come preloaded with iOS 13 ?

Yes definitely.

Thanks adiBOY for your quick and prompt response which is greatly appreciated ...

As for Q2, the reason I prefer iTunes is because the transfer & update is using wired ... last year I had some rare & serious problem until a specialist consultant from Apple have to attend to it ... She finally resolved it by telling me that my problem was because some files were not properly copied over during the over the air update ... she said this was a rare problem problem happened to a very minority of people and said updating thru the wired iTunes method is more stable than over the air method ...

For Q3, I asked because I worry High Sierra cannot update the iOS to iOS13 and thus remain at 12.4.1 and thus my iPhone 11 Pro cannot downgrade from iOS13 to 12.4.1 to receive the backup data ...

Once again thanks for your help and have a great weekend ahead ...

Cheers ...

I have also watch some videos in YouTube on how to use the wired method of migration by using the lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter ...

But these videos always didn;t show how this migration and be activated in the first place ... what button to press to get it activated ?

Thank you ...

Has any one tired connecting addition monitor with IMac Mid 2011 model, does it work?

If didn’t update to iOS13 and remain at 12.4.1, then when restore the new iPhone11 from backup (ie ver 12.4.1), will it work bcos the new iPhone11 is already pre-loaded with iOS13 ?

Thanks
