Moving from Blackberry to iPhone...

I'm going to upgrade from a Blackberry to an iPhone, and would like to know the easiest way to transfer my contacts and a few photos to the iPhone.  I see on my BB on the menu for my phone book an option that says "SIM Phone Book."  Does this put all my contacts on the SiM card, and then when I move the SIM card to the iPhone, all my contacts will be there? 
I have a multimedia card in the BB; will this be compatible with the iphone, so that my photos can be on the iphone?
I'm not very tech savvy, and hope there's a very simple way to do this.
Thanks!

Hi there.......there is a simpler and much much easier way to do this (and not a lot of ppl are aware of this either).
I have just upgraded my package with O2 from my blackberry onto a new iPhone 5. The first question that hit me is 'how do I transfer all the sim contacts from my blackberry onto my new I-phone ???'
The answer is easy.... Download an app called ( INTOUCH ) onto your blackberry. When you open the app it takes a second to create a user account that is unique to yourself. once you open the app you can then sync all your current sim contacts onto there web server. then download the same app on your new phone (i.e iphone) which you can get on the app store for free. load the app up on your new phone then you can pull all your contacts down to your iphone and thats it ....it really is that simple!!
if you go onto google and type in INTOUCH app you will see the results that come up there. for blackberry users it can be downloaded on bb app world.
as far as im aware the app works on majority of devices, and the beauty is that once you've created an account, any handset you have wit he app installed on it, will automatically and simultaneously update the,selves on each phone with contacts you have either deleted or added etc..

  • Moving from Blackberry/ipod  Touchcombo  to iphone

I just got an iphone & everything is set-up but I am now about to clean up my ipod touch for possible resale and have a question about email.I went to delete my accounts and want to be sure that deleting them on the pod will not affect their use on the iphone.Like I said dumb but I need reassurance.

    Removing your e-mail accounts will not affect anything. Clean that baby off and sell it!

  • How can i copy my diary from blackberry to iphone 3gs - this si my first iphone so not sure how to use anything at the moment but my diary is the most important bit i need!

    how can i copy my diary from my old blackberry to new iphone 3GS - this is my first iphone so i am complete novice!  I hope to avoid re-inputting every entry!

    You probably already figured this out, but....
    The iPhone will sync from various things on your computer (check the manual for details) but if your Blackberry won't export the data or sync to anything, then you'll need to get the info off the Blackberry manually.
    Alternatively, it might be possible to set the Blackberry up to sync with Google Calendar, maybe, to export the data? I don't know anything about Blackberrys. Try a google search or ask on BB forums with help getting the data out.
    But it will be easier to manually type into something on your desktop/web, then sync with the iPhone, rather than hand-entering on the phone itself. Then keep syncing with whatever you decided to use, so that you'll never need to do this again.

  • From Blackberry to iphone 3gs

    I need some help. I am going from a Blackberry Curve 8300 to an iphone and I can't wait to get/use the iphone. I need to tranfer all my contacts to the iphone. What is the best way to do this? I don't have Outlook. My Blackberry currently backs up to my Windows PC. I use gmail but don't currently sync my contacts with gmail Is it best to create a csv file then try to upload to gmail, the sync the iphone? I don't want to have to enter 196 of my contacts by hand. Please help!!
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Download/sync your contacts to a compatible program and sync to iphone.
    From the manual:
    "Sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address
    Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts,
    Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft
    Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. ("

  • How do I transfer calendar and contact info from blackberry to iPhone 5

    I have a blackberry 9300 and just got an iPhone 5. Is there anyway of transferring all my contacts and calendar info over to the iPhone ?
    Thanks

    You can try apps like dropbox.
    Or you can import those pics from your Android to your computer, then use iTunes to sync those photos to your iphone.

  • Cannot find iTunes rented, unwatched movie after moving from MAC to iphone and back to MAC

    Rented a movie and downloaded it to my MAC on 3/11. Moved to my iphone 3/12 in preparation for a trip. Never watched on iphone and moved movie back to MAC this morning. Now movie is nowhere to be found on MAC?  Any suggestions? When I hooked my phone up to the computer, the "move" button was active and the movie showed it transfered from my iphone, so I can't figure out why I can't find it on either device now.

    Will I get a reply? It seems Apple isn't as supportive as I thought.

  • Activation Process from Blackberry to Iphone

    Has anyone ported the cell phone portion of a Verizon Blackberry to an Iphone and kept the data plan with Verizon? Are there any special steps to get this done smoothly? Would it be easier to get new blackberry service with Verizon or someone else since I'll be charged with the early termination fee when I do this?
    Thanks..

    Thanks for the response. I do intend to purchase the data plan with my Iphone. I'm just concerned that since my Blackberry phone number is also tied to my blackberry data plan that this will cause issues during the standard activation process..For work purposes I need to carry a blackberry so I know that I will being paying for two data plans (actually one since my employer will pay for the blackberry portion).. I just want find out if anyone has done this and the smoothest route to get my Verizon Blackberry number on my Iphone but keep my Blackberry data on the blackberry device..

  • Apps moving from iPad to iPhone

    I got a new iPad and downloaded some apps. Later I picked up my iPhone and saw the iPad apps "waiting", as if they are going to download to my phone. Why and how did that happen and how do I prevent it?  I deleted the little boxes from my phone...

    Probably related to Automatic Downloads...

  • Getting email contacts from Blackberry to Iphone 4

    I am unable to get my old contacts from Blueberry to Iphone4. Do I have to manually add all contacts and emails in the new phone. I have used VZ contact transfer through My Verizon. It didn't transferr all contacts and no emails.

    Unfortunately email account transfers just aren't possible between Blackberry OS and iOS. They're just too different, so you'll need to copy over those server-bits manually.
    As for contact transfers, I would see about Syncing the Blackberry with your PC or Mac via Blackberry Desktop:
    Mac: http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/desktop_mac.jsp
    PC: http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/desktop_pc.jsp
    (if your older handset is unsupported, there is a link on the bottom of the PC page to download earlier versions)
    Once the contact information is actually on the PC or Mac, syncing will be much easier to do through applications like Outlook, Entourage, Address Book, or even online solutions like MobileMe and Google Sync.

  • Switching from blackberry to iphone what do i do

    Hi
    Just got iphone 5s, how do i switch the cell service over from blackberry

    When you purchased the iPhone 5S, didn't you tell the vendor the cellular telephone number, etc.?  It should be all set then.  Just turn your iPhone on and follow the directions.

  • Help! Just swapped from Blackberry to iPhone & drowning in spam

    Just got 3g iPhone and set up my O2 pop3 account for email and getting crazy amount of spam - any advice gratefully received.
    Thanks - Graeme

    Advice? Get another email provider... you shouldn't have to deal with that. I had the same problem before I got the iPhone and I switched to GMail for personal stuff... I now get maybe a few spams/month. I would guess that Yahoo is just as good, although I have little experience with them. Both work well with the iPhone.

  • Moving from iTouch to iPhone. Want to synch purchased items. Is it possible?

    I am buying an iPhone 3g. I've been using an iPod Touch 3G for 2 years. I don't want to lose all the apps that I have purchased and want to use them on my new phone. How can I save them to synch? Or do I lose them all? The iPod Touch will need to be restored to factory settings.

    You won't use your Apps. When you sync the iPhone with iTunes you will be able to install any Apps that you want.

    If anyone is still struggling with this problem for the iphone 5 I just figured out how to fix it! it wasn’t easy because google sync doesn’t work on a blackberry anymore and outlook doesn’t help if you don’t got it so I had to go the long way and spend 2hrs of my time figuring it out while the actual solution only takes 5 mins!
    So I downloaded an app called "Phone to Phone transfer" there’s other apps like this one but this is the only one that’s available on both blackberry and iOS so its the one I used and it worked, read: 3 steps to transfer all contacts from BlackBerry to iPhone 5
    1) Download the app on your blackberry and sign-up for an account i used an email i barely use and its free so it was all quick and easy
    2) Sync your contacts on your blackberry using the app
    3) Download the same app this time on your iPhone and use the same log-in details as you used when you signed up on your blackberry
    4) Sync contacts again and press download and... that’s it! all your contacts are now on your new iPhone.
