HT4489 "Invalid contact data" error BB to iOS7 import. Suggestions? Thank you.

Question

Hello, thanks for taking a look at this.  I am attempting to import my contacts from my Blackberry 9670 running version 6 to my iPhone 5s running iOS 7.0.3, and I get the following error: "Unable to import vCard.  This vCard cannot be imported because it contains invalid contact data."  I am backing up only contact information from my Blackberry, and there are only 1100 contacts, well under the limits.  Your suggestions would be appreciated.  Thank you.

See the attached step-by-step, very specific, detailed instruction, just as you've asked.

At Step 6, you will chose "One Way Sync FROM Device"
You follow the remainder of the steps as outlined.
After completed, you will return to your Sync setup as in Step 6 again and set that to Two Way Sync.
Set the conflict settings as you prefer:
Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager, and click on Synchronize.
Select Configure PIM.
Select the application whose settings you wish to change (for example, the Address Book application).
Select the Configure tab.
Select Advanced Settings.
Select Confilct Resolution, and select the option Handheld Wins, or which you desire to be.
I choose Let me decide because I too, like you, enter data on both the handheld and in Outlook and want to be able to tell the sync which data is correct according to my desires.
Good luck.
