Each year when the new generation of iPhone is released as a market hit, users always need to have a second thought on whether to replace the old iPhone with the new one or not. When iPhone 5 appears in the market as dual-core A6 processor powered mobile with extremely thin design and speedy lighting dock, most iPhone 4S users are more or less lured to pay for the new Apple mobile. In fact, before making the decision to change from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5, users get more to think about besides the price and the function of iPhone 5. For example, they need to find out a method to transfer movies from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5 which will be quite useful.

For most iPhone 4S users, purchasing iPhone 5 is not equal to abandoning the data files on iPhone 4S. Therefore, the movie transference from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5 turns out to be quite necessary. For one thing, the movie transference from iPhone 4s to iPhone 5 allows users to get rid of the trouble that they have to pay those purchased iPhone 4S movies again for iPhone 5. For another, users can eliminate the danger of losing those movies recorded by iPhone 4S permanently after transferring those movies from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5. Therefore, here two methods will be covered to help users transfer movies from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5.

Method One: Download iPhone 4S purchases

Generally speaking, users can try to transfer movies from iPhone 4S to computer, which is permitted by iTunes in special conditions, and then sync those transferred iPhone 4S movies to iPhone 5. One thing to notice is that those involved movies shall be those purchased from iTunes that are still on sale. Moreover, the iPhone 4S and the iPhone 5 shall share the same Apple ID.
