Hey is there a way to copy contacts from o2 mini to P910i
thankyou
o2 xda mini contacts to sony ericsson p910i
synchronizing the information between the xda mini and the p910i is very easy... the first you would need would be a PC or Mac.
by synchronizing your data onto MS Outlook on WindozeXP and/or MS Entourage or Apple Address Book on Mac OS X (using third party PocketMac Pro), you can now update both mini and p910 ... i would suggest though if you would like to synchronize and use both smartphones, try and keep your contacts with the XDA Mini format since the mini has a limited number of entries compared to the p910.
hit me up if you have questions, i do this regularly between my xda 2s, p910 and Mac .. sometimes i do this for my pc as well ...
I think both also have software that can export to a file, eg .csv, and import them likewise.

Hey unfortunaately i had to get rid of the xda o2s all i have is the backup file of my contacts is there a xbackup software i could use to get my contacts frm the backedup file into the p910i
I would suggest you not to get rid of your O2.
For the PDA, the sync plays the most important part.
I have almost 5000 contacts and have been using
Palm, Treo 600/650, Pocketpc
All works without problem. Choosing between palm vs ppc is another topic, not disucss here. But both palm and ppc can deliver the expected data sync between your PC and device.
BUT THE PCSuite sync for P910i is BROKEN, for sync it can talk an hour which just take few seconds to mintues (first sync).
and with P910 sycn software - there is GUARANTEE record LOSS.
BEWARE of this.

Hi,
Does that mean you never sync'd your O2 with Outlook or you have the backup as well?
There must be a tool out there to pull out of xbackup but the it'll not be easy. I use Outlook for everything and to sync everything so that my contact and calendar list are all in the one place and its the phones that are updated from it, much easier.
SOrry,

Hi! i am just a new user of a qtek s100 phone(the greek jam). Before s100, i had a Nokia 6630 phone. While i had n6630, i wanted to backup ma contacts and i did it. i back up ma contacts with a symbian program (n6630=symbian system) called contacts manager. Contact manager created an *.csv file with ma contacts in there.
Now i have the s100, i cant find a way,program etc to export ma contacts from the *.csv file to ma device.
is there an application for PPC that can import the *.csv file to ma contacts??
PLZ any info Will Help A Lot!!! Confused Confused
mega sorry for the double posting but i am in real neeed! i must find as soon as possible an application or a way to make outlook read ma *.csv file!
emm how about opening the *.csv file i have now copy the contacts and paste them in another *.csv file? whould that work?? how will i do sth like that??
I don't know if you can import from CSV file, but what if you use your old phone to import them to your sim and use Sim manager to import them to your new phone?

Hi JuNiOr_Gr, I guess my reply is too late for you, my friend, but I will post my solution on importing all the contacts to a WM5 device anyways. And perhaps, it will be much of use for others who face the same problem.
Unfortunately Outlook import/synchronizing did not work for my ex-Nokia 6680. The PPCBckpContacts, svCard, Contacts Transfer programs did not help me at all; only hours of waisted time.
What I did was accidentally found and suprisingly it worked well while I was trying to fall in sleep (ha-ha-ha) .
On your Symbian device, create an e-mail account with whatever settings. Next, go to your contacts list, select all, and... select the options menu "send by e-mail". Symbian will prepare a *.vcf file for each contact and then attach all of them to your newly created e-mail message. Please be patient if you have many contacts as I did; the process takes some time and my phone needed approximately 5 minutes to process all 300 contacts. When you have e-mail message ready, waiting for the e-mail address and subject, close it by saving to Drafts Folder.
Now, go to your file manager (I used Smart File Manager), and search for all *.vcf file in your "Mail" folder (it could be on C: or E: drives, depending were you keep your messages). After the program found your all *.vcf contact files, select them all and send it through Bluetooth to your WM5 device. All you have to do is just press "Save All" on your WM5 device several times, but it is much more easier than adding all contacts by hand, right?!
FYI, I did little different then written above, because all messages were saved on MMC. So I took it out and put in my PC card reader, searched and separated all *.vcf files to a separate folder. Copied the created folder back to MMC, put the MMC back in the phone, and with FileMan sent everything via Bluetooth to my HTC TyTN.
Now I have all the contacts in place, without any losses.
Cheers to you all!!!
PLEASE HELP!!!
I need to transfer my complete contact list from my P990 to my Vodafone 1605 PDA. Can anyone tell me the easiest way to do this? Have iSync on my Mac and have installed the provided Sync Software for the Tytn on my PC but need to transfer over 700 contacts to the TyTn and don't know where to start [email protected]
Any help you guys can give would be most appreciated!!
Hi Cyrus,
It would be really easy if you have the facility to sync both your P990 and TyTN to a PC. However your post indicates you are using a Mac so I think the best way here is to use SyncML.
1. Install the attached program as per the install guide in the .ZIP.
2. Goto https://www.mobical.net/mobical/main/ and register free for an account.
3. Download (or sent) the login settings from Mobical to your P990.
4. Manually enter the login settings from Mobical to your TyTN.
5. Sync your P990 to Mobical. This can include Contacts, Calendar, notes etc...
6. Sync your TyTN with Mobical and you should have all your Contacts, Calendar, notes etc...
I've used this in the past for various phones and it works. You will need GPRS/3G data access on the P990 and the TyTN should be able to Sync over GPRS/3G and WiFi.
Gav.
I am really sorry if I am being thick here...
Thanks for the post Gavin.... You said it would be easier if I could Sync my P990 with my PC.
1) Well that got me thinking and I have managed to Sync my Contact book into Outlook express on My PC.
2) I then exported it as a .WAB file which I managed to upload onto the 1605.
3) I can find the file when I explore my device but when I click on it the device comes up with an error saying it can't recognize what application created the file and to go to the application and open it from there.
4) When I go to the Contacts screen I can't find a "File Open" menu anywhere.
I feel like I am 95% of the way there if I can just import this file into contacts
- Any suggestions?

This will, unfortunately, not help. After you got your data onto the PC, you need to sync the PDA with the PC. For that, you need ActiveSync, available for free at the Microsoft web site or on the CD that came with your PDA . I am not sure if it also works with Outlook Express or only with the "big" Outlook. But Outlook should also be on the same CD that came with your PDA.
Cheers
Daniel
Hi Cyrus,
Daniel is right. You need to use ActiveSync with Outlook (not Outlook Express) to sync properly.
I've heard of other Sync programs about:
Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279925&highlight=sync

Hi all. I have an Artemis. I want to copy my phone contacts from Nokia E50 to it. I tried from nokia to send all contacts at once via bluetooth, but nothing. If i send contacts one by one, it works. The problem is that i have 600 contacts and probably i'll get old moving them one by one. Is there an automatic procedure?
There is no way to send all contacts between these models via Bluetooth. Problem lies in VCF (virtual card file) format. I'm not very familiar with all standards but VCF consists of all details of only one contact. Function "Send all contacts" puts all separate contacts into one file and sends it. It is not the same as sending each contact separately. As far as I know only SonyEricsson models support multiple contacts in one file (it didn't work with Nokia 9300). The way I used many times is to synchronise two phones via Outlook.
Install http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_PC_Suite then either use bluetooth or a usb cable to sync your nokia contacts from you phone to outlook. Then use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activesync to sync outlook to your htc. Be careful with the order, or you will delete all your contacts. (something else, I found my "General" type numbers vanished, so change them on the nokia to "Work" numbers)
Its Easy Syncronise It With Ur Computer Using Outlook And Than Syncronise Ur Nokia With Ur Pc U Can Copy Contact From Out Look To Any Device Nokia Sony Ericcson Or Xda Mda Pdas Thats Why They Hav An Option Of Syncronising U Can Do Using Bluetooth All Of My Mobiles R Uptodate As Soon As I Enter My Room They Syncronisewith My Pc And Update The Contacts N Calender
copy contacts from your old phone to your new phone
Hi,
I had a similar problem, how do I copy my contacts from my old Sony Ericsson T610 to my Nokia ?
I did not have a sync cable for my Sony Ericsson T610, I tried to send the contacts from my T610 to the Nokia via Bluetooth and IR and was able to only send individual contacts. The "send all" option on the T610 failed miserably and wasted my time (both over Bluetooth and IR)
I got fed up. Finally I figured out a way to do it with zyb , its a nifty website with SyncML (there are others as well but this worked for me)
(the Artemis is supported by zyb so that should work as well)
http://www.unwiredconnect.com/gprssyncml.htm
Steps I used
***************
Synchronize your contacts from the old phone ( Sony Ericsson T610 ) to zyb.com
( You will need a WAP profile from your operator to do the Sync , so keep that handy, Or you can do it over the WLAN if your phone has WLAN, I had to use a WAP profile for the T610)
then change the SIM card to the new Nokia phone ( Nokia E61i)
then add a new phone in zyb.com (i.e. Add the Nokia E61i)
Synchronize on the Nokia E61i ( you will need the WAP profile again from your service provider or WLAN again)
Now all your contacts have been transferred from your T610 to your Nokia.
Viola !
I also deleted my zyb account after the contacts were copied to my E61i , paranoid I guess. You could continue with zyb for their core service (contacts backup and restore), but zyb is mutating to yet another facebook and thats not a good sign.
I had a full addressbook on my T610 (510 contacts) so it took some time.
Note: It will not copy the pictures attached to the contacts and complain that the sync failed. Ignore the failure and go to zyb to check if all contacts are there. It will copy the additional fields in a contact though.
Additional Note: You will have to use the merge feature on zyb if you copy more than once but thats a simple step.
Congratulations on your new phone
Data charges will apply when you use the WAP profile but I think I spent 3 NOK or 50 us cents or 40 pence or 60 euro cents and that was money well spent (this was the first and only time I actually paid for data traffic to an operator)
Note to the cheapos (like me): You can use zyb or any syncml service over WLAN on the Nokia E61i, so you need to use the data plan only for the upload from the T610 to zyb. You should be able to use WLAN over the Artemis as well but you need to check.
Good luck !
NOkia to windows mobile 6
right - I wasted a whole day on this, so don't want others doing the same. Outlook didn't work for me, so I had to find a workaround.
First, download net qin mobile guard onto your nokia phone.
Use that software(M guard), and click on back-up. Back up to your SD card.
THen..... take the .vcf file, and import it into google contacts (you'll have to set up a google account for this)
Then read the stuff online about how to sync your windows mobile with google.
et voila!
Hi
A while ago, I bought a Trinity... It works fine but there's something that really drives me crazy... I saved the contact from my old cell to the SIM card and then copied them on my Trinity.. But now all the contacts' numbers appear with an 'own' name in my phonebook (name/M or name/H etc). Is it possible to reconcile them, so there's only one entry with all the numbers of the respective person?
Hope you can help me!
You're either going to have to do it the hard wayon your Trinity or sync to Outlook on your PC and do the editing there. Personally i'd go for the latter, but then mine came from Outlook in the first pplace and so were already in the one person - multiple number structure. They'd come from a Sony Ericsson before and that also did the same set up. Don't remember the last time i actually stored numbers on the SIM.
Is it possible to somehow send the contacts from one hand set to the other directly?
Theoretically, it is possible to send the contacts but my old sony-ericsson can't establish a connection with my trinity. However, I can send files to my Sony-Ericsson (I think there is a problem with my irda since I can't set the beam option to "always receive incoming beams" and there's nowhere an option to send something via infrared...) I've recently updated my device to WM6.1 with a ROM from this forum (with manilla)..

I've recently updated my device to WM6.1 with a ROM from this forum (with manilla)..
But shouldn't there be a built-in way to reconcile the contacts? Because WM exports contacts to the SIM in the same format (name/H;O;M;etc)
I don't have Outlook (since it isn't included in the home and student suite of Microsoft Office) and I'm definitely not gonna pay like 300 bucks for software I don't really need. I mean, why can't they make it Sync with Windows Life Mail (the program) as well?? Stupid MS^^
