How do i transfer my contacts from an iphone 4 to an iphone 5

how do i transfer my contacts from an iphone 4 to an iphone 5?

One way is to sync the contacts from the old iPhone to iCloud. Then when you turn on the new phone and set it up for iCloud and turn on the Contacts in Settings >iCloud, they will come to the new phone. http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

    The problem is non compatible devices. You could go to a Verizon corporate store and they could try to transfer them, however many customers stated this has resulted in loss of contacts. They don't guarantee a transfer.

  • How to I transfer my contacts from iCloud to my new iPhone sim?

    Please help with the above!
    Thank you

    You can't store anything on an iPhone SIM.  If your contacts are in iCloud, just go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign into your account and turn Contacts on.  They will then download to your phone.

  • How do I transfer my contacts from my old Powerbook G4 to my new Macbook Pro?

    how do I transfer my contacts from my old Powerbook G4 to my new one Macbook Pro?
    new Macbook Pro is operating on OSX 10.8.2
    When I save it as an export then try to open it on the new computer it wants me to delete all my current contacts before it will import.
    What happened to MERGING?

    On the PowerBook G4, open Address Book and choose File > Back up Address Book...
    Save it to your Desktop or directly to the MBP if it is already connected. Otherwise copy the Address Book backup file to the MacBook Pro. Email is also an option.
    On the MacBook Pro, open (double-click) the Address Book Backup (abbu) file:
    Contacts will launch and display the following:
    Click Replace All which will do what it says.
    Using Migration Assistant to migrate from Tiger to Mountain Lion simply does not work. Tiger to Lion works, Tiger to Mountain Lion does not. Apple does not provide specific directions regarding the use of Migration Assistant from Tiger to ML, only Tiger to Lion.

    How do I transfer my contacts from a Sony Ericsson to an IPhone 4? I have created a .vcf file but not sure how to transfer!

    Are you using a Mac? Import the .vcf file to the Apple Address Book, switch to iTunes, and choose to sync your contacts.

  • How can I transfer the contacts from my ipad to my itouch ?

    How can I transfer the contacts from my ipad to my itouch?

    Precisely what adami said. Hook up your ipad to your computer. Under 'info' choose to sync contacts. That will put them on your computer. Then plug in your Touch and choose the same, to sync contacts with the computer, and they'll transfer.
    Alternatively you can go into each contact and choose to 'share' it and mail it to an account that you can access on your Touch, then open it and save it. Upside, no computer needed, downside, it's a bit tedious.
    Theoretically you can also use iCloud, however the cloud ate my contacts so I'm not syncing via the cloud for that anymore. Your experience might be different, but I personally would avoid the cloud unless you've got them all backed up somewhere in case the cloud eats yours too.

  • How do I transfer email contacts from my snow leopard computer to my iphone 4s?

    How do I transfer my contacts from my mac pro OS 10.6.8 (no icloud) to my new iphone 4s?

    Actually it's usually the other way around; if you attempt to sync your contacts on your computer and your Address Book is empty it will sync the empty contacts from your Mac to your phone, resulting in the contacts on your phone being deleted.  As long as you have at least one contacts on your Mac, when you initially sync you should get a Merge or Delete prompt for contacts.  Choose merge and the contacts on your phone and on your Mac will be merged and the merged contact list will be then be on both.
    Another approach you can take if you're concerned about this is to enter the two contacts you have on your phone in Address Book on your computer, then without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".  Then connect your phone and go to the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings, check Sync Contacts, then further down under Advanced...Replace Information on this iPhone, check Contacts.  Then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  This will replace the contacts on your phone with those in Address Book on your computer.  (You can also open Address Book and go to File>Export>Contacts Archive before doing anything and save this on your desktop as a backup in case something goes wrong.)

    Move the iPhoto library from the Pictures item of the Finder's sidebar on the MacBook Pro to the same location on the iMac via FireWire Target Disk mode, or a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended, or through AFP file sharing over a network.

    Make sure you signed in the same iCloud account on your phone (Settings>iCloud) and on your PC (on the iCloud control panel for Windows) and that you have turned on photo stream on both devices.  Also make sure you are putting the photo you want to add to photo stream in the photo stream uploads folder on your PC.
