Question

It is possible to restore iTunes backup to Samsung Galaxy S6

Sep 15, 2015 11:59PM PDT

I have backed up contacts, notes, songs and pictures on iTunes from my old iPhone 4s.

I bought a new GS6. It is possible to extract those backup to my new phone? How?

Android is quite different and I'll not duplicate the prior posts about your question. You can google that and see what's been found.

Here I have to deal with each area on its own.

For email I have to sync with which ever email app I have.
For contacts, Google is my easy way. Put them into Gmail and sync.
For pictures it's all over the map but Samsung's sync app Kies may have an import feature.
