Transfer data using BlackBerry Link on a computer

This data transfer method is available if you switch from a BlackBerry device running the BlackBerry OS (version 5.0 to 7.1)
or the BlackBerry 10 OS. You can use BlackBerry Link to transfer data and settings, such as phone history, media files,
browser bookmarks, and more, to your new BlackBerry 10 device. BlackBerry Link is designed to move the data in your
personal space but not the data in your work space.
Only the data saved in the storage space on your previous device is transferred. Any data that is wirelessly backed up or
synchronized with a web-based account isn't transferred to your new device.
