New Iphone 3 downloading contact from a previous Iphone

I just took delivery of a new Iphone 3.  I have an older Iphone with a contact list that I use with names and numbers that are not the same as the address book in my macbook.  When I synchrornized the new phone with the macbook it downloaded the macbook address book.  I don´t want this list of contacts.  I need the old Iphone contact list. 
Question:  1. how do I erase all of the contact in the new Iphone?
               2. Once that is done, how do I download the contacts from the older Iphone.
Thanks Paulfromqueretaro concerned.

  • HT4859 I backedup iphone 4 and iphone 5 to icloud. I need contacts from the ipone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups now. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4?

    I backedup my iphone 4 to the cloud before upgrading to an iphone 5. I also backedup my iphone 5 to icloud. I can see both phone's backups side by side on the my screen on icloud.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

    You connect the iPhone to the MBP using the supplied cable and set up the iPhone in iTunes to sync your contacts. Posting in the iPhone forums might be a better venue for you.

  • How to download contacts from iPhone 4 to iTunes?

    How do you download contacts from iphone 4 to itunes?  I followed the steps but I cant find them in itunes.

    You don't.  Itunes is not a contact/address program.  It does not contain your contacts.
    They would be in whatever program you chose to sync.  Address Book for example.

  • HT4859 i broke my iphone and got a new one. My iCloud backup has a backup from the old phone and one from the new phone. The new phone didnt download everything from icloud. Is there a way to download the stuff i didnt get back?

    i broke my iphone and got a new one. My iCloud backup has a backup from the old phone and one from the new phone. The new phone didnt download everything from the original icloud backup. Is there a way to download the stuff i didnt get back? please help

    You'll have to do another restore from the old phone backup.  But before doing that, tell us what was not restored.  For example is it just photos that didn't get restored?  If so, that seems to be a common problem for many users, judging by the posts left in the forum.  There doesn't seem to be a solution to that problem (other then to tell users to ALWAYS sync photos to a computer and never trust an iCloud backup/restore to save photos.

    To add to the above, since you're running Windows your choices are Outlook if you have it on your computer (the full version, not Outlook Express), or the MobileMe service. You would load contacts into one of those two places, and then sync them to the iPhone via the settings in iTunes.
    Well sort of Outlook Express. Outlook Express uses the windows built in Windows Address Book (found in Accessories). And you can sync with the Windows Address Book (as I do).

  • Error while downloading Contacts from R/3 to CRM system

    Hi All,
    I am trying to download Contacts from R/3 to CRM system.
    Through Initial Download. For this i have set filters through Tcode: R3AC1
    as on KNVP and KNVV for the field VKORG.
    As we have our requirement to download contacts based on or differentiating
    on 'Sales Org".
    We have downloaded our Accounts properly without any errors.
    But for Contacts we are facing issues such as one or more extra
    relationships are getting created between Contacts and Accounts other than
    its original Contacts.
    Means already existing contacts are creating more relationships after
    download.
    But a unique feature is visible for all, All those with false
    contact-account relationships.
    Contact has field value for 'Address type' missing while the same address
    type field is properly added for correct relationships. ( please find attached the screenshot of the same)
    Any pointers in which direction we should proceed for the solution would be
    appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,
    Sharad

    Dear Vimal,
    Sorry not sure then...
    Sometimes the RFC connection is refused and use to give that particular error messgae due to:
    The old RFC library having version 6.20 automatically converted the
    password into uppercase with a size limit of 8 characters before sending it to the SAP system.
    The RFC library version 6.40 does not perform this conversion any more, because mixed case passwords upto 40 characters are now supported by SAP Basis version 7.00 (eg. NW2004s) and above. 
    So need to use upper case passwords when connecting to an SAP system having version less than 7.00. 
    But this is not valid in this scenario.
    Thanks,
    Atin

  • How to retrieve contacts from a previous back up?

    How can you retrieve contacts from a previous backup?

    Actually, this is correct.
    I didn't write they were not included in the backup, just why they are part of the backup.
    -> iTunes: About iOS backups
    "iTunes will back up the following information
    Contacts* and Contact Favorites (regularly sync contacts to a computer or cloud service such as iCloud to back them up).
    * Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. Back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM), iCloud, or another cloud-based service to avoid any potential contact data loss."

    Hi robertsjohn125,
    Contacts are not managed in Firefox, unless you are taking about Firefox Desktop and Firefox Hello?

    To transfer your data and settings to a new device see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.  You can also use an app like My Contacts Backup to back up the contacts on your phone as attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  If you need to, you can later open this email on your new phone and tap the attachment to import your contacts.
