Question
How do you transfer data (text messages, pics, contacts) from your sim card to a micro-sim card?

Answer
If your are looking to transfer information so that you can use it with your new iPhone 4S which has a micro SIM card, it works the same way as any other time you move from one phone to another. Either have your carrier transfer the data for you or copy the data to iTunes and sync it from there. In most cases, your carrier is your best option for the copying. You can also use iCloud. I hope this helps.
