Not possible, the current version of iTunes only allows syncing via iCloud which the 3G does not support.

Problem transfering contacts from N97

hi
i am transfering contacts from N97 to outlook. I used the ovi to syncronize the contact from N97 to outlook 2007. when i checked the outlook contacts. All english names are showing fine. But arabic name shows not correct way? how could i solve this, but my n97 shows all arabic contact in a right way? and my outlook , is supported by arabic too.

You can try to copy out a single contact as vCard and import it into Outlook. vCard will encode the names in utf-8 Unicode correctly.
What's the law of the jungle?

Transferring Contacts from a BB Q10 to a BB Bold 9780

I have a Q10 with one provider ( Telus) and also have a bold 9780 with another provider ( bell mobility) . I will be stopping to use my Q10 and need to transfer my contacts to my Bold 9780. How can this be done??

There is no method of transferring data from a BB10 device to a BBOS device. Unless you sync the data to Outlook or to an email account wirelessly there isn't a way to transfer.

Hi Friend,
If it's possible to export contacts from Blackberry to the SIM card, then you can place that SIM card into iPhone and import them to iPhone (settings>>mail,contacts,calendars>>import contacts from the SIM Card.
Hope it helps

Unable to load contacts from 8520 to Q10

I am trying to transfer my contacts from Curve 8520 to Q10. The have tried the following:
1. Using Blackberry protect, backed up entire data of Curve 8520 (when I sign in on the website it shows a summary of the backup, which is fine)
2. After setup of Q10 I signed in to BB Protect and selected to Restore Data. It said "File downloaded, contact restoration will take approx 1 hour". However, it did not happen completely. To complicate things further, contacts were all mixed up and jumbled. To make things worse, the phone stopped receiving and making calls. All other funtions were working (whatsapp, email, browser, etc). However, the call log screen froze and no calls could be made or receieved.
3. I ran Wipe data, reset the phone and started all over again. This time, I used the link software and followed the "Switch Device" option. After completing the steps mentioned by the Link software, I was still unable to sync/transfer the contacts. Again the issue with the call logs and contacts screen freezing cropped up. Again I was unable to make or receive calls. After trying for more than 4 hours, I again reset the device.
4. Finally I used the Link software again and selected "Transfer Data" option, connected both the phones to my laptop, followed the 9 step process as suggested by the Link software. It completed successfully and prompted that data transfer was successful. But I was unable to see any contacts. After about 3 hours I could see a few contacts but they were horribly mixed up. The final nail in the coffin was when the same issue of screen freezing recurred. I was again not able to make or receive calls.
5. So again I have reset the device and I am using the phone now without any contacts. It is working fine.
Please suggest how do I get my contacts into Q10. I have 2200 contacts on Curve 8520.
Regards,
Udit.

I had the same problem today and was so disappointed to see that nobody responded to this! So here is how I fixed it (with the help of BB customer service).
1. Something from the Curve has corrupted your Q10. You need to wipe the data&colon;
Settings -> Security and Privacy -> Security Wipe. This takes a while, about a half hour. Once your screen goes black, wait 5 minutes then turn it back on. Everything will be erased and reset back to new.
2. Back up your Curve with the BlackBerry Desktop Software
3. Connect your Q10 and open BlackBerry Link software. Select “Back up & Restore”, then chose the “Restore Device” action. From the folder, select the backup you just completed. DON’T SELECT FULL RESTORE. The problem comes somewhere there. Select “Custom Restore.” I only chose my Memos, Phone Call Logs, SMS Messages, Address Book, and MMS Messages. Hit “Restore.” Everything transerred.
Guess this is the price we pay for waiting so long to upgrade

Restoring Contacts from Bold to Q10?

Hi,
I've just got the blackberry Q10 and can't seem to restore my contacts from my backup file.
I've followed all the steps and restored everything e.g. messages etc which are working fine, but the only reference to restore contacts is "recent contacts". When i tick this box and click restore and then check my phone contacts, it still only shows my bbm contacts.
Anyone have idea how to sort this?
Regards,
David.

Your Hotmail contacts were probably synced from your hotmail email account.
The next thing you can do is to call o2 and ask them to please escalate this for you to BlackBerry tech support and ask them to extract your Address Book only out for the backup and see if you can restore that.

Transferring contacts from an N80 to a N70 via BT?...

I'm trying to transfer contacts from an N80 to a N70 via BT.Seems I need to do this from the N70? (There doesn't seem to be a way of transferring the contacts data FROM either device!!)
The N70 sends the N80 a files called DataMover.SiS which the N80 can't open.
I can't get the devices to sync with each other using bluetooth, regardless of which 'phone the attempt is made from...
The N70 had the very latest firmware (V5.0609.2.1) and is unbranded, the N80 was recently flashed to FW V3.0617.0.6 from the earlier FW (V2.something?) and is locked to Orange.
What is really annoying is that I managed to send the contacts from the N80 to the N70 BEFORE I upgraded the N80's firmware, but I can't remember how I did it!!
(The fact that I was previously able to transfer the N80 stuff to the N70 was the reason I didn't worry about loosing contacts when I had the N70 unbranded & the FW flashed!! D'oh!).
Is this just something I'm doing wrong or is this still an unresolved Bluetooth issue with the N80??
BTW, the latest FW on the N70 seems to have stopped it falling over & dying when trying to use TomTom Sat Nav..!

There is a way i've done it and it works.
This is what to do;
make sure you N80 is factory rest - like new doesn't have to be but that's how I did it.
[b]Then send the transfer request FROM the N80 to the N70 and done![/b]

Make sure you have at least one contact in the contact manager on the PC, so there are contacts to merge.

I am transferring contacts from my old iphone to my new iphone 4. The screen has had 'restore in progress' on the screen for 20 hours now with time remaining going backwards. Is this normal? Should I let it go on?

I am setting up my new iphone4 and am trying to transfer all of the contacts etc from my old iphone 3GS.After linking it with itunes the screen has shown 'restore in progress' for almost 24 hours with time remaining going backwards. Is this normal? Should I let it continue?

No, that is not normal. I guess you are trying to restore from the latest backup created by your old 3GS?

Transferring contacts from iphone 4s to PC and then to new iphone5

I am getting a new iphone 5 and want to transfer my contacts from my work phone iphone 4S to my PC . when I get new iphone 5 I will then transfer contacts from PC to iphone 5.
Can you advise best way for me to do this?

Hello grandview97
The best method would be to back up your iPhone 4s with either iTunes or iCloud. Once that is complete, then you can plug in your new iPhone and restore that back up from either iTunes or through iCloud. The steps are laid out in the article below.

Transfering Contacts FROM iphone

Hello everyone. My contacts on Yahoo are severely outdated.
Currently, I have contacts sync-ing set to 'off'.
I would like to transfer my contacts from my iPhone to Yahoo.
But I am afraid that my iPhone contacts will be lost.
I have read that when there is information on the iPhone and Yahoo address book, that iTunes simply merges everything. In that case, shall I delete everything but ONE entry in Yahoo and then perform a sync?
What happens if I delete EVERYTHING on Yahoo and perform a sync?
Thanks!

I suggest syncing contacts with a supported application on your computer first so that you have a fall back.
With XP, this can be with the address book used by Outlook Express. If you haven't used this address book and it is empty, enter on contact in the address book before syncing. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing contact info which you want to select.
When syncing with your Yahoo online address book which includes contact info, contact info between the two will be merged. If you want to replace all online contact info, delete all online contact info first except for one contact. If something goes wrong or doesn't turn out like you wanted, you have a backup of sorts on your computer with the address book used by OE. You can replace all iPhone contact info with the OE contact info via the iTunes sync process, but you can't do the reverse.
