How do I get my phone numbers from my IPhone 4 to IPhone 4S

how do I get my phone numbers from my IPhone 4 to my new IPhone 4S?

Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer, or over the air with an email account that supports it. Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for contacts which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair by being dropped, etc.
If you are syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, you select the same under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
If you are syncing contacts over the air with an email account that supports it, create the account with the Mail app on your new iPhone and turn Contacts on for over the air syncing with the account settings on the iPhone.
Contacts are included with the iPhone's backup. If your iPhone is being backed up with iTunes on your computer, the first time you connect a new iPhone to iTunes on a computer being synced with another iPhone, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or set up the new iPhone as a new iPhone.

    Where were you syncing the contacts to, iCloud, the computer and Outlook, an email account? That is where you get them back from.

    How can I get the phone numbers in contacts to appear with dashes between the first 3 numbers, the next 3 numbers, and the last 4 numbers?  Until very recently
    it did so.  Contacts on my macbook pro does show up this way.  I do have a mobile me account and in the past syncing was no problem.  What setting has changed?

    The phone number format as well as the date language and format and the time format are controlled by the Region Format setting. Go to Settings > General >International > Region Format.  When you change a region format, you can go back one page (to International) and see an example of the date/time/phone number format that your selected region format will produce.

  • How do I back up phone numbers from Nokia 6350 bef...

    I got so tired of my buggy Nokia 6350 that I went to my service provider's website (AT&T) and bought an iPhone 3GS. When it arrived I read the instructions, found some confusing directions there and am in the process of asking for clarifications in the AT&T discussion forum.
    The reason I'm posting here is that my brother, who works at a cell phone call center, advised me to back up all my phone numbers from the Nokia before attempting this flip phone to smart phone transition. I have a USB cord that connects the Nokia to my PC, but Windows XP tries to "install the new hardware" and looks for a CD. I never got a CD with the Nokia. And I can't use the Ovi suite because -- just my luck -- the 6350 is one of the minority of phones not compatible with the Ovi suite.
    How do I back up all phone numbers before I attempt to copy them to the iPhone 3GS?  I'm very frustrated..
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Download the pc suite instead of ovi suite. U'll find it under the support page of ur phone on Nokia's site
    Please mark the post as solution if it solves your problem.

    Can phone numbers from a Blackberry phone be transfered over to a new iphone both on the same service?

    For Contacts transferring, try MobileTrans. Works fine for my Galaxy Note 2.
    Messages transferring is also supported.

  • How do I get facebook phone numbers into my iphone contacts list?

    I switched from a droid to an iPhone recently and with the droid all of my facebook contacts with phone numbers were synced into my phone and I can't figure out how to do that with my iPhone. I know that you can sync exsisting contacts with their facebook pictures, birthdays, etc but I want my facebook contacts into my phone without having to type in each number individually.

    See if this helps: http://www.iphonestuffs4u.com/how-to-sync-facebook-contacts-to-iphone/.

  • How to sync more than phone numbers from Backup Assistant to LG Octane?

    On the LG Octane, I have been told that I can Import contacts from Outlook 2010.  Also I can edit and add contacts in Backup Assistant.  This I can do.  But when I sync the phone to Backup Assistant all that appears on the phone contacts list is the person's name and phone numbers.  The lines for address, email, etc are blank.  These items do not transfer from Backup Assistant.  What is wrong?

    Backup Assistant supports most address book fields; however, there are some address book fields and settings that may not be accessible.
    Supported Fields
    Mobile 1
    Home
    Work
    Email 1

    Groups/Category
    Ringtone
    Text Messaging Ringtone
    Picture ID
    Secret
    Speed Dial
    Voice Mail
    Some information may  not sync to the device because there may not be a specific address book field for the contact information.
    Sign in to the Back Up Assistant website and press the Sync button.

  • How can i get my phone numbers

    i lost my phone device and i want to get my phone numbers

    Do you mean you want to recover your Contacts?  The only way to do that would be if you have them saved somewhere - do you use iCloud sync, or do you regularly sync them to your computer?  If not, they are gone.

  • HT1351 how do you get your itunes music from your ipad to iphone

    I am trying to get my itunes music from my ipad to my iphone. how can I do this?

    If you are in a country where you can re-download iTunes purchases or you've signed up to iTunes Match then you can re-download them, otherwise you will need to sync your music via your computer's iTunes - you can't connect an iPad to an iPhone for direct transfer of music.

  • How do i get the phone nos from a text message on an iphone

    Please can someone help/When I get a message with a phone nos I can't seem to store the nos and add persons info after
    please help

    If you want to add the number you received the message from to your contacts, you need to click "add contact" on top right corner from within the message windows and then save it.
    If you want to add the number you received with in the message, usually a blue coloured arrow (>) appears next to that message, click it and then you would be able to save it.

  • How do I get just phone numbers on my contacts

    Have a new iphone and want to get my contacts saved but not the email address

    Depends on where you're attempting to get the info from. If you're getting the contacts to sync from Address Book etc then it will pull whatever details are listed within that.
    Alternatively it would be a matter of creating the contacts manually sans email, or syncing and then removing the email after the sync.

  • 7230 getting contacts/phone numbers from SD-card

    I have a new Nokia 7230. My old Nokia N65 died, but I have the data on a micro SD card.
    The 7230 finds the card but i cannot find the function where I could 'move data from card to phone memory'.  In the settings/synchroniz&copying the is an icon but when I try  it, it says that there is no safety copy available.

    i had same issue. Turn on family sharing.
    and set the backup to cloud for the second phone. When you sync just deselect the contact option
