I won an office raffle and this is what I got. I already have one that I bought in December and am on the AT&T GoPhone Plan. My old iPhone is kind of dirty and scratched (I would give this one to my brother). Is there a way I can transfer the data from my old phone to the phone I won???
 
All your data is on the computer you synced from (and a backup of the phone). I think all you have to do is swap SIMs, and restore.
 
I don't know for sure, but maybe you can use the backup data that your current phone has saved when it has synched in iTunes.

How the heck does an iPhone get dirty in a couple months??

would you consider donating your old one for a music scholarship program in Harlem NY?
 
well if you are on a mac, all of your info should be on there and should sync up with the new iPhone, if you are on a pc you can use outlook to get the same functionality. If you do not have a mac or outlook on a pc then I do not know of an easy way to transfer data.

music and videos should just sync up through iTunes.
 
I'm looking for an iPhone... I'd be happy with your old one :D

They go for a nice amount on eBay - if you can get it unlocked thy sell for even more (I'm watching some at $570-$600 right now... and they're not ended yet). Either that, or find a good charity to donate the proceedings to. Just a thought. Or give it to your brother it'd make his day I'm sure!
