Transfering #'s from phone to computer/itunes

The only place I have my phone #'s is on my iphone. I want to get them on my mac book just in case I ever lose my phone. Is it as simple as plugging my phone into itunes and hitting sync under contacts?

Hi I hope someone can help me. I have a similar problem to one detailed below but the solution doesn't help me (I think).
I too have all contacts on my iPhone, previously imported from my old phone's SIM card and Microsoft Outlook (I use a PC at work with Microsoft Exchange).
I have now left the Company and want to import these contacts from the iPhone to my new Compaq Laptop, which I will be using at home. Whenever I try to cancel my old work email account on my iPhone it tells me I will lose all of my contacts. I've obviously cancelled at that point but now don't know how to transfer all of my contacts onto my new laptop.
Recently my old work email was closed and all of my contacts disappeared. I've got the email reopened but that is only for the next few days. Under the Info tab in iTunes, it says my Contacts are synced over the air from Microsoft Exchange. OK I knew this, but I never get the option to bring those contacts over to my home laptop. I'm just setting up my new laptop and hope someone will be able to tell me how to get my contacts (and diary if poss, but not vital).
I have Microsoft office 2000(!) loaded so I can set up Outlook though I don't know if this is too old a version for Vista or my iPhone 3G.
HELP!!

  • Transfering music from iPod to computer (Itunes)

    Hi,
    My computer have crashed. I have now replaced the broken harddisc and installed SW. I only have my music in my iPod now. How do I trigger a transfer from my iPod to iTunes, it doesn't happen by it self when the iPod is connected and listed in iTunes?
    I currently got music and filmes in the iPod. And I do not want to loose any of it, just get it copied over to iTunes.

  • Transferring music from iPhone to computer/iTunes

    hi there,
    my computer recently caught a virus and had to be rebooted meaning everything was removed from it. I had to reinstall iTunes but all my music was gone. I still have my music on my iphone but I don't want to download anymore incase it deletes what I have remaining on my phone. Is there anything I can do to put all of my music back onto itunes without having to download it all again?
    thankyou

    The user tip should help you extract everything that is on the iPhone and listed in the Music app, whether it came from the iTunes Store or not.
    It is usually possible to remove viruses from computers without going nuclear on the hard drive. Unless the user data has been encrypted the hard drive can be attached to another uninfected computer and all user data copied off to safe storage. Keeping a backup of your data makes even that effort unnecessary.

    Are you referring to the password for your email account? If so, recovery of that password would be dependent on your email provider. Normally they have a web based access for email, check there and see if there is a "forgot password" link.

  • Transferring movie from old crashed computer to new computer

    Okay, my old computer crashed and signs me on to a temporary profile due to numerous hardware and OS problems which are irrelevant. I cannot access my old settings and every time I log off, my settings are reset to default and I have to re-setup iTunes, so my library is not saved. I still have all of my purchased music and movies, and I want to transfer them to my new computer and iTunes library. I have copied all of my music not purchased from iTunes, and all that is left is a movie purchased off of iTunes. When I transferred it to my new computer, iTunes told me it cannot copy it to my iPod...says I need to de-authorize my old computer I believe?

    Perhaps I'm missing something here, but if your old hard drive in fact failed, requiring its replacement, unless you have a separate backup, other than using a data recovery service, your data is gone.

  • Trouble transferring apps from my ipad to itunes.

    I'm having trouble transferring apps from my ipad to itunes. My computer is authorized, but I get - Some of the purchased items on the (user name) ipad could not be transfered to your itunes library because you are not authorized for them on this computer.

    If those apps were purchased with a different Apple ID and iTunes account that would be a reason why you get that message.

  • Help!!!! when i try to transfer my videos from phone to computer they upload as still images with sound!!!!

    hi all,
    when i try and transfer my videos from phone to computer they are tranfering as still images with sound! I have tried going through i tunes! quick time and vlc player but they are all coming up the same!
    I have bought several apps to aide with this but they all give the same results!
    i find it hard to believe that i cannot transfer videos from iphone as i have a samsung monte too and that requires plugging in and selecting phone then selecting what i want transferring and then they are there to watch as i recorded them!!!!!
    these are really important videos of my daughters first steps etc so really need to get this right! and as phone memory is low i cant do much on phone till i get rid of the vids!!!!
    thanks in advance

    Plug your iPhone into your PC, when it is connected open my computer and you will see your iPhone under devices. Double click on your iPhone and a window will open and display a dics drive called "internal storage", double click on internal storage and a folder will appear (might be named DCIM), double click on that folder and another folder should appear. This folder(s) (their may be more then one) should contain all your pictures and videos taken on your iPhone. Simply select the video(s) you want to save to you computer by right clicking on the video, select copy and then paste it where you would like to save it on your pc (click and drag will also work). After you have transfered the videos to your pc see if they play properly.

  • What is the name of the $20 program that has a red itunes icon that transfers music from your ipod to itunes?

    What is the name of the $20 program that has a red itunes icon that transfers music from your ipod to itunes?

    I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
    If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
    If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

    That's works but I have also used ES File Explorer and my home's wireless network to copy files from the phone to the shared My Documents folder on both of my computers. I usually employ this option when I'm too lazy to walk upstairs to get usb cord from OEM charger.

    I have a CS3 on an iMac.  My old iMac's disk drive failed completely.  So, I cannot turn it on.
    I installed all my files and programs from a back-up drive.  Adobe Product Support said I should go to the Forum.
    Any ideas?

  • HT1386 I need help getting my music to sync from iphone to computer itunes. Got a new computer and everything else will sync but my music from my iphone.

    I use my work computer to sync my iphone due to outlook appointments and email.  I was given a new computer and got everything transferred ok, except for my music.  I need to transfer my music from my iphone to my computer itunes.  itunes is only giving me the option to sync from itunes to iphone, which would wipe out all of my music I think.  Can someone help with this?

    razmee209 is right, but if you can't get your old computer, you can use iExplorer to download your music from your phone to your computer.  I've used it for other things and it works.

  • Transfering songs from iPhone to computer

    I have never done this before
    But I can't find a answer
    On my laptop on iTunes I have 1,200+ songs
    That I had on my phone
    But a while ago I deleted them off my phone
    I want to hook my phone back up to my laptop
    But I am worried about getting all the songs again
    And losing the few songs I brought on my phone
    Is there a way I can sync my phones music to iTunes and delete iTunes songs?

    Hi cdthoas,
    Music purchased on your iPhone can be brought into your computer simply by downloading it again from the iTunes store. See this article -
    Download past purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If you prefer to transfer it directly from the iPhone to the computer, use the method described in this article -

  • Transferring Playlists From A Windows Computer to a Mac (with an IPod???)

    I recently switched from a Windows computer to a Mac and the folk at the Apple Store copied my documents and music files to the new Mac. All of my music that I had on ITunes on the Windows computer was transferred, including all the purchased music. The only thing that wasn't transferred were my extensive playlists, which I've spent years creating. I figured I could do it with my IPod and I was about to synch my IPod with the new Mac, when I saw the message advising me that everything on the IPod would be erased including, presumably, the existing playlists. Now, I realize I could simply print out what's on the playlists from my old Windows computer and manually recreate the playlists, but that would be a laborious pain in the butt. There's gotta be a simpler way but so far so one seems to be able to tell me what it is. A few people have told me there's no way to do it, but I have to believe there's a way because it would be foolish and dumb for there not to be. Any ideas? Thanks.

    There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and clone playlists from an iPod. You could start your research with the three below, I believe they can all copy playlists and other data. If you search the web I'm sure you'll find others:
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
