How do I get contacts from one iphone to another?

Question

I broke the screen on my iphone and I had to get a new phone. I need to get the contacts from my old phone to my new one. Is there a way of doing this without typing all of the numbers in?

Answer 1

Several ways:
You can plug your old phone into your computer, back up it's data, and restore your new phone from that backup, and it will basically behave and have everything your phone has. The only bug is that you have to manually put your videos apps and music on the phone. Don't worry, when you redownload your apps, they will still have all their data from the backup.
You simply email them over wifi by opening each individual contact and pressing "share". You just eamail them to yourself and open the email and download them on your new phone.
If you are running iOS 5 on both iPhones, you can try iMessaging them to your new phone using the same share button and pressing "message".
One of the simplest ways for iOS 5 users. Use the iCloud. Just turn iCloud on for contacts on both iPhones and make sure it is off on all other iOS devices. You just open your Contacts app and they should all appear there. If you would like to then turn off iCloud on your iPhones you may, just be sure to press the keep contacts button when turning it off so you don't lose them.
