iPhone help

    Hi,

    I got a new iPhone and want to give my old one to my sister. She has never had an iPhone so will need a new Apple ID etc.

    However, I want to keep my iCloud and ID etc on my new phone.

    If she resets my old iPhone, will I lose all my stuff on my new phone?

    Any advice on how to do this would be great.

    Thanks a million!

    No the data/settings on your new phone won't be affected.

    On the old phone just erase all content and settings via Settings > General > Reset and choose to set up as new phone and follow the instructions to set up a new Apple ID.

    Just make sure you got all your music etc off the old iPhone. That isn't backed up to iCloud and wouldn't have been part of the restore onto the new phone.
