Not possible, the current version of iTunes only allows syncing via iCloud which the 3G does not support.

Problem transfering contacts from N97

hi
i am transfering contacts from N97 to outlook. I used the ovi to syncronize the contact from N97 to outlook 2007. when i checked the outlook contacts. All english names are showing fine. But arabic name shows not correct way? how could i solve this, but my n97 shows all arabic contact in a right way? and my outlook , is supported by arabic too.

You can try to copy out a single contact as vCard and import it into Outlook. vCard will encode the names in utf-8 Unicode correctly.
What's the law of the jungle?

Help transferring contacts from iPhone4 5.01 to Mac without duplicating contacts on either or both lists

When I connect my iPhone running 5.01 to my mac vie iTunes, and transfer contacts, it always duplicates the contacts when synching.
So if I have a single John Doe entry on both my iPhone and Mac, I now get two.
Sometimes it will make 3 or 4 copies.
I want to:
copy my contact list from my iPhone TO my Mac, and update existing entries on my mac, and add new ones that are on my iPhone and not on the Mac, and
transfer contacts from Mac to iPhone that are new to the iPhone
Basically, I have to separate contact lists that I dont want to mix or mesh entirely, and I also want to stop them from duplicating.
The User Manual does not address keeping them from duplicating.
Thanks in advance

Well, there appears to be NO way to get it to stop doing what its doing.
I have one contact list on my iPhone.
I have a different list on my MacBook pro.
When I connect to update items on my phone via iTunes, I back up the iPhone.
I did my update, and then restored from the backup. That brought back in my iPhone contact list.
However, when I go to put my apps and music, books, etc back on my phone from iTunes on my Mac, I either have to bring my contact list off my mac over and it adds entries to the iphone contact list, or I choose not to sync contacts, and it erases them altogether.
If someone has a suggestion how I can keep my original iPhone contact list on my iphone, without having itunes either wipe it or add unwanted entries from my macbook pro, I'd appreciate it!

I am transferring contacts from my old iphone to my new iphone 4. The screen has had 'restore in progress' on the screen for 20 hours now with time remaining going backwards. Is this normal? Should I let it go on?

I am setting up my new iphone4 and am trying to transfer all of the contacts etc from my old iphone 3GS.After linking it with itunes the screen has shown 'restore in progress' for almost 24 hours with time remaining going backwards. Is this normal? Should I let it continue?

No, that is not normal. I guess you are trying to restore from the latest backup created by your old 3GS?

Transferring contacts from an N80 to a N70 via BT?...

I'm trying to transfer contacts from an N80 to a N70 via BT.Seems I need to do this from the N70? (There doesn't seem to be a way of transferring the contacts data FROM either device!!)
The N70 sends the N80 a files called DataMover.SiS which the N80 can't open.
I can't get the devices to sync with each other using bluetooth, regardless of which 'phone the attempt is made from...
The N70 had the very latest firmware (V5.0609.2.1) and is unbranded, the N80 was recently flashed to FW V3.0617.0.6 from the earlier FW (V2.something?) and is locked to Orange.
What is really annoying is that I managed to send the contacts from the N80 to the N70 BEFORE I upgraded the N80's firmware, but I can't remember how I did it!!
(The fact that I was previously able to transfer the N80 stuff to the N70 was the reason I didn't worry about loosing contacts when I had the N70 unbranded & the FW flashed!! D'oh!).
Is this just something I'm doing wrong or is this still an unresolved Bluetooth issue with the N80??
BTW, the latest FW on the N70 seems to have stopped it falling over & dying when trying to use TomTom Sat Nav..!

There is a way i've done it and it works.
This is what to do;
make sure you N80 is factory rest - like new doesn't have to be but that's how I did it.
[b]Then send the transfer request FROM the N80 to the N70 and done![/b]

HI,
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692 provides tips that will resolve most issues related to syncing contacts and calendars on a PC.
Make sure you have at least one contact in the contact manager on the PC, so there are contacts to merge.

How to transfer my contacts from samsung to iphone4

I recently got an iphone 4 and would like to transfer my contacts from my samsung phone to my iphone.
Received the phone yesterday, spent half a day locked out beause of voice control which seems to come on when I go to bluetooth to try and hook up to a phone in my house. Doesn't seem to stay off
Can't find Siri also

If you were acccessing a Gmail account on the Samsung syncing your Google contacts over the air, create the account with the Mail app on the iPhone turning Contacts on for over the air syncing.
Voice Control should not come on when going to Settings > Bluetooth.

These are the bluetooth profiles the iPhone supports.

Siri is supported with the iPhone 4S and later.

Transferring contacts from iphone 4s to PC and then to new iphone5

I am getting a new iphone 5 and want to transfer my contacts from my work phone iphone 4S to my PC . when I get new iphone 5 I will then transfer contacts from PC to iphone 5.
Can you advise best way for me to do this?

Hello grandview97
The best method would be to back up your iPhone 4s with either iTunes or iCloud. Once that is complete, then you can plug in your new iPhone and restore that back up from either iTunes or through iCloud. The steps are laid out in the article below.

Transfering Contacts FROM iphone

Hello everyone. My contacts on Yahoo are severely outdated.
Currently, I have contacts sync-ing set to 'off'.
I would like to transfer my contacts from my iPhone to Yahoo.
But I am afraid that my iPhone contacts will be lost.
I have read that when there is information on the iPhone and Yahoo address book, that iTunes simply merges everything. In that case, shall I delete everything but ONE entry in Yahoo and then perform a sync?
What happens if I delete EVERYTHING on Yahoo and perform a sync?
Thanks!

I suggest syncing contacts with a supported application on your computer first so that you have a fall back.
With XP, this can be with the address book used by Outlook Express. If you haven't used this address book and it is empty, enter on contact in the address book before syncing. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing contact info which you want to select.
When syncing with your Yahoo online address book which includes contact info, contact info between the two will be merged. If you want to replace all online contact info, delete all online contact info first except for one contact. If something goes wrong or doesn't turn out like you wanted, you have a backup of sorts on your computer with the address book used by OE. You can replace all iPhone contact info with the OE contact info via the iTunes sync process, but you can't do the reverse.
