I use BBSAK to backup my apps. Much more certainty in that.

Then backup your old device with the BlackBerry Desktop Software.
Then connect your new device, skip the Switch.
Selectively Restore those items I want to restore.

Then load apps I want to install from the BBSAK backup, or install fresh, ESPECIALLY if you are moving from one OS level to another, say OS5 to 7 or 6 t0 7... better safety in installing the apps fresh.
