I'm new to iPhone (4) and need to transfer all my contacts from my old Treo 750 (windows mobile)...any suggestions?

You need to import the contacts with a supported address book application on your computer.
With Windoze, this can be with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book application used by Outlook Express with XP and by Windows Mail with Vista and Windows 7 called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
There should be Palm desktop software available for your computer that includes the Treo contacts which should include an option for exporting the contacts in a format that is supported for import by Outlook or Windows Contacts.
Syncing contacts with a supported address book application on your computer is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • I recently got an iPhone 5s and tried to transfer all my stuff from my old iPhone 4s but it wouldn't let me do it with iCloud so I set it up as a new iPhone and updated it, will I now Beale to transfer everything with iCloud or will I need to do it laptop

    I recently got my iPhone 5s and tried to restore it with the stuff on my old iPhone but I couldn't because the iPhone 5 didn't have the recent update, so I set it up and a new iPhone, will I be able to use iCloud to restore now or will I need to use my laptop ?

    I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
    i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
    so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
    hope this helps!

  • I have a new SIM/service and want to transfer all my contacts from the current 4S to the new SIM in my old 3GS.  I do NOT want to backup/restore the entire phone contents (iTunes or iCloud), JUST the contacts.  How?

    Current phone 4S with service from one provider.  Also have a new SIM with another provider, and want to copy my contacts from the 4S across to my old 3GS which I will be using for a bit as an alternative.  Definitely do not want anything except the contacts copied across so a full backup/restore is NOT what I'm after, and I can't see (in the iTunes backup) how to only do the contacts.

    Sorry, my bungle - from what devices I am used to - these Apple things still have me confused at times.
    The core requirement is the same - to get the contacts from the 4S onto the 3GS without backing up the whole device/apps etc.
    And a second part of that is how to get the contacts onto a SIM for a device that DOES store them there.  No doubt that will be a problem as it only has name/number combos, not all the fruit the iPhone keeps under a contact.  Maybe it can't done.  A simple export to CSV or something that could be edited would suffcie if there were an import tool to get it onto the SIM in the simpler format.

  • My MacBook Pro was stolen, I have bought a new Mac Book Pro and need to download all purchased media from ITunes

    Can anyone help with how I download all of the my purchased content?

    The best thing would be to restore from your backups. If you failed to make backups, though, download and install the latest version of iTunes on your computer, if you haven't already, go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the new Purchases link under the Quick Links. The new iTunes in the Cloud service, currently in beta as part of iCloud, may allow you to re-download your purchased content. Music, movies and TV shows are only available to US users at this time.
    You can also do this from the iTunes app on your iOS device, if you have iOS 4.3.3. Run the iTunes app and look at the bottom of the screen for the Purchased link.

  • HT1386 I want to give me old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone onto a new computer.  The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music.

    I want to give my old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone 3 onto a new computer.  The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music. How can I do this?

    To effectively transfer ownership of the iPhone requires that it be "restored" as a new device.
    ...  The PC she synced with is dead
    The iPhone is not a backup device. Your computer backs up the iPhone, not the other way around. What you use to back up your computer is up to you - Macs use Time Machine. I assume PCs use something similar.
    If her PC backup is dead you will have difficulty extracting content from the iPhone since it is not designed to work that way.
    All her Apple purchases can easily be transferred to another iPhone. However, her contacts will be gone, as will any music or other contact obtained from sources other than Apple.
    There are a number of third party utilities that claim to be able to extract content from an iPhone. See wjosten's procedure here:

  • My iphone has been water damaged and in the mean time ive gone back to using my old phone. But i need to get all the contacts from my iphone i had synced to my laptop, but i don't know where to find them and im not sure if ive backed them up to anything!

    my iphone has been water damaged and in the mean time ive gone back to using my old phone. But i need to get all the contacts from my iphone i had synced to my laptop, but i don't know where to find them and im not sure if ive backed them up to anything!

    If your contacts are synced to your computer then they are in the supported app you are syncing with.
    When you set up syncing of contacts on your device, which application did you select? 

  • I have an Iphone 5 and want to organize all my contacts on line vs on the phone, how can I do that.

    1) I have an Iphone 5 and want to organize all my contacts /emails on line vs on the phone, how can I do that?  It seems somehow I have about 10 listings for one person - I think some came when I hit facebook to sync - which was a mistake I dont want to share my contacts.
    Also easier to type in new addresses on an computer vs the Iphone.
    2) I have a book on my itunes from my Ipad that is not downloaded to my Iphone.
    3) My Itunes identity on is saying it is my Ipod, how can I have it seperate for Iphone, Ipad and Ipod in Itunes?
    Thank you!!

Now i have 6 of one contactDeleted face books also incase that was the issue.  I went to Itunes and couldnt find contacts - now I wonder it is is my outlook email too adding information as I am seeing contacts that are only on my outlook emails.

    I don't understand how to transfer my email contacts from my Windows laptop to my iPhone? What do I need to do?

    Hey wahanz!
    In order to sync your Windows contacts to your iPhone, you will need to first create an iCloud account:
    Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4436
    You will create the iCloud account on your iOS device, and when you do, don’t forget to turn on contact syncing in the initial setup. Then you will want to download the iCloud control panel for Windows onto your computer and install it:
    iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1455
    Make sure that your contacts are in Outlook, as that is the supported way of syncing your contacts to iCloud, then make sure you have the contact syncing enabled in the iCloud control panel on your computer, and when the contacts have synced, they will be available on your iOS device! Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • I just bought an imac and want to transfer all my music from an iphone to imac - how is this done please

    i just bought an imac and want to transfer all my music from an iphone to imac - how is this done please

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

    If you want to transfer app dat you need to restore the new iPod from the backup of the old iPod.  Restoring from backup will result in your new iPod being just like your old iPOd except you will have to reenter keychain items like passwords since those only get restore to the same device upon a restore.

  • Need to transfer all my photos from iPhoto app in my computer to another one, which files do I need to copy?

    Need to transfer all my photos from iPhoto app in my computer to another one, which files do I need to copy?

    You need to find your iPhoto Library and copy this package to your other computer.
    By default the library will be called iPhoto Libary.photolibrary and located in your Pictures folder. YOu will recognize it by the typical "fan of pictures" icon. The color of the icon wil depend on the iPhoto version. What is your version of iPhoto?

  • My PC crashed and I had to start a new Itune setup, is it possibile to transfer all my contacts,calender from my IPad back to my new ITune setup?

    My PC crashed and although I have all my info from ITunes software on my IPad I would like to be able to traqnsfer that info,ie:contacts,calender,music back to NEW ITune software which I had to install..I called Apple and they were unable to help. Does anyone out there have a idea?

    I could be wrong, but as far as Apple iOS devices go, the transfer of information is only 1 way. The content of your iTunes and your iPhone, iPod, iPod touch and iPad are always a mirror of each other. If you've lost your iTunes, syncing your iPad will erase it. Only iTunes purchased content can be saved. Some of that is only a one-time download also.
    Call Apple and find out...

    Hi, I'm Horacio from Argentina. One of my friends gave me, as a present, an old iPhone 3GS and I want to use it. How can I do to have a new iTunes ID?
    Thanks for your help..
    Regards

    First wipe the iPhone:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings.
    There's no iTunes ID. You need an Apple ID which you already have since you can post here.
