How do I transfer data from my phone with the bluetooth to my Mac??

Hey,
I heard from a friend I can send my phonebook/phone data through blue tooth to my Mac.
My phone is currently broken and I don't want to lose the data. I know I can text it through,but I can't with my phone right now-is there a way to set up the blue tooth and like transfer it straight to my Mac,besides texting it?
I've never even used a blue tooth to my phone. So any explanation/steps to do this?
Thanks.

What is the manufacturer of your phone? Can you look the instructions up in your phone's manual or search the website of your phone's manufacturer? Irregardless, the first thing you need to do is to "pair" your phone with your laptop. Make sure the Bluetooth settings on your phone say that it is "discoverable." Go to System Preferences>Bluetooth, then ensure that the box besides "Discoverable" is checked (if not, click the box so that a checkmark appears). Then click the "+" at the bottom of the left box. A setup assistant will guide you through the remaining steps to pair your phone with your laptop.
I have a BlackBerry Pearl 8100. BlackBerry phone can only send files to Macs, they cannot sync with Macs via Bluetooth. I do not know how to export my phone book to my MacBook Pro, but when I send pictures, I select "send using bluetooth". It then asks which device to send the file to. My MacBook Pro then displays a message that my phone is sending a file and asks if I want to accept that file. I select yes, and the picture is downloaded into the documents stack. Of course, +this paragraph+ is only how my phone connects via Bluetooth to my MacBook Pro. If you have a phone from a different manufacturer, your steps will be different. I only provided this as an example.

How do I transfer data from my phone back to a new iTunes after losing my HD?

Hi all, my computer got hammered by a power spike and I lost all three hard drives. Gone is not only my iTunes library but the backup on a seperate disk. I've installed new disks and loaded a clean install of iTunes. I turned off auto sync so my data would not be wiped off the iPhone. But please, how dop i get it to transfer what's on my phone back to my iTunes library?
Many thanks in advance.

I've used Migration Assistant in the past and it's working like a champ. You either want to connect your MBPs using a Firewire cable or have them connected to the same router with Ethernet cabling. Don't attempt a wifi transfer - it could take a whole day.
Both links provided are good - they both point to various ways to transfer data. I just prefer MA.

How do I transfer pictures from my phone to the ipod

I have an iPad and I need to transfer the pictures from my phone evo to this iPad,can any one help me....thanks,

If your photos on your phone are saved on any sort of removable memory card, you can take that card, put it into your computer, then sync that folder with your iPad.
Alternatively, you can e-mail those photos to an account you can open on the iPad and save the photos from there.
I don't know if the Evo can sync with a computer, but if you get it onto a computer the use iTunes to sync it to the iPad.
Or if the evo has a removable microSD card, and you have the iPad camera connection kit you may be able to transfer the photos from the card onto the iPad.

How do I transfer data from one pg to the next pg?

I have a registration page that I would like to go to a
welcome page when registration is complete. The welcome page will
say "Welcome (name) your new username and password are (user &
pwd)". I have tried unsuccessfully using cookies to populate the
welcome page. Since the user will only see this welcome page one
time, is there some other way to do this? Can I get the needed
fields from my database? BTW - the registration page works just
fine.

What scripting language are you using? Why not use session
variables?

How do you download data from your macbook to the ipad?

how do you transfer data from your macbook to the ipad?

What data do you want to transfer ? Music, films, tv shows, photos and ibooks are done by syncing in iTunes (for which there is some help in the iPad manual which can be downloaded from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad). Documents can also be done via iTunes, but it depends upon the app and the transfer method(s) that it supports e.g. file sharing via the bottom of the device's apps tab on your computer's iTunes, via your wifi network, cloud services, email attachments etc
Edit : have you got the Keynote app on your iPad, or any other app that supports keynote presentations ? Without a 'suporting' app you can't store a document/file on the iPad (unlike computers files have to be stored within an app)..

How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.

Hi All,
         How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.
         Can i do it ebven if he tables are different in structure.
Please Advice.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Saket Tiwari,
I hope the earlier post by kashyap is good enough an answer. anywas in addition to it let me give a detailed
explanation of how you can populate an internal table.
1) Append data line by line.
     Syntax : APPEND [<wa> TO / INITIAL LINE TO] <itab>.
this appends new line to internal table <itab>.
2) Using COLLECT statement.
             COLLECT is another form of statement used for populating the internal tables. Generally COLLECT is used while inserting lines into an internal table with unique standard key. The syntax for COLLECT statement is as shown
     Syntax : COLLECT [<wa> INTO] <itab>.
3) Using INSERT statement
     Syntax INSERT [<wa> INTO / INITIAL LINE INTO] <itab> [index <idx>].
INSERT statement adds a line/work area to the internal table. You can specify the position at which the new line is to be added by using the INDEX clause with the INSERT statement.
Now coming to your request..
To append part or all of an internal table
     Syntax
              APPEND LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>] TO <itab2>.
*     Note:
Without the FROM and TO options, this statement appends the entire table <itab1> to <itab2>.*
b) To insert part or all of an internal table into another internal table
     Syntax
          INSERT LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>]
          INTO <itab2> [INDEX <idx>].
c) Using Move statement.
To copy entire contents of one table into another in one execution
     Syntax MOVE <itab1> To <itab2>.
               OR
          <itab1> = <itab2>.
but u hav to be careful because he contents of itab2 will eb overwritten on the execution of this statement.
These copy the contents of ITAB1 to ITAB2. Incase of internal tables with header line we have to use [] inorder to distinguish from work area. So, to copy contents of internal tables with header line the syntax becomes,
ITAB1[] = ITAB2[].
Coming to the letter part of your question, Yes, we can copy values between tables having different structures.
for this we use
                            MOVE-CORRESPONDING <itab1> TO <itab2>
    this executes the statement for their header lines. Searches for the sub-fields which occur both in itab1 and itab2 and then generates, for all relevant field pairs which correspond to the
        sub-fields ni , statements of the form MOVE itab1-ni TO itab2-ni. The other fields remain unchanged.
I hope the information provided has been of your help.
Reward if useful.
Regards,
Jose

I would recommend just backing up your old phone & then restoring the new one from that backup if you are planning to sell/give away the old one. Do NOT restore that phone until you're sure everything is on your new one, though, just in case!
If you have 2 phones and want the same Notes on both, syncing via iCloud is probably better.

How do I transfer data from one iPhone to another?

How do I transfer data from one iPhone to another?

If your old device is an Apple using iOS 5 or later, and you have an iCloud account, you can transfer all your saved messages, email accounts, photos, notes, and other personal settings to your new iPhone.
Here's how...
Connect your old Apple device to WiFi and to a power source.
Back it up to iCloud by going to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and toggling iCloud Backup on. The time it takes to ba ckup depends on how much data you have and on the speed of your internet connection.
iCloud backs up your device once a day. If it needs backing up before you transfer to your new iPhone 5, tap Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. Do not start transferring before the backup is finished.
Turn on your new iPhone and complete the setup by selecting your language and country, and choose whether to enable Location Services. When prompted, choose your WiFi network.
When prompted to set up, choose Restore from iCloud Backup, tap Next, and enter your Apple ID and password.
Select the backup of your old device and tap Restore. Wait until the device has finished restoring from the backup.
When the restore process is complete, your iPhone will restart and be ready to use.
Connect your iPhone 5 to iTunes to sync data not contained in the backup (such as music, videos, apps, and so on). You can choose the data that are synced by clicking the syncing tabs in iTunes.
