Title: Transfer data from nexus 7 to nexus 10 - how to?
Post by: jamesphoto on June 16, 2013, 06:40:55 AM
I am looking to purchase a Nexus 10. I will transfer ALL my data (apps, magazines, calendar, contacts) from Nexus 7 to the new device. It there an easy way to do this without hooking it up to my computer?  I have a Mac and I think the Nexus 7 has only been hooked up to it one time.

The apps and mags(play magazines) calendar and contacts should download with the same google account. If you are rootless, Helium (nee Carbon) should transfer app data and stuff via the cloud or a pc. Not sure of mac. Rooted try titanium backup.

Both the guys above are right, apps, books, magazines et cetera bought through Google Play will be there ready to download once you've signed into your Google account. If you have them synced, calendar events and contacts will also be available from your Google account, sign in and your device will sync.
The only thing not saved is app data but as Matt has mentioned there are workarounds like Helium and Titanium.

If you want to move data stored on your internal memory, photos, movies, music et cetera then I'd suggest you take a look at AirDroid on the Play store.
