Sometimes backup takes a very long time - I have had it take more than an hour. Upgrade to latest itunes, hit backup and just leave it.

More than likely there is no issue.

Now as far as the 4S goes - I recommend starting from scratch - forget installing the backup unless you absolutely have to have your old pics, texts, etc. Most apps need to be upgraded anyway due to 5.0 and I'm sure you have plenty of apps you never use.

Many folks have better performance (especially battery life) by starting fresh.

Of course it all depends on how you manage your contacts and email. Many ways to do this and have it all back on the phone without restoring everything from backup.
