The forum is rife with people’s agony over the inconsistencies of iCloud syncing. It works well for some but for others is nothing but woe.
I use Dropbox sync and it works very well. I sync full databases to my phone and iPad as they both have plenty of storage. But not everyone has that success.
I am pretty sure that the answer you’re going to get is to connect your new iPad over Bonjour, set it to sync all databases and leave it to do its business.
I don’t know of any bulk upload other than this.
There “might” be a speed advantage to be gained by connecting your new iPad to your computer as outlined in this thread and link to a guide. But @BLUEFROG outlines there a catch that leads you back to Bonjour as the more likely way.
