Hi, any idea about a software to scan and recognize (OCR) business cards with the Hermes device to export the data in outlook contacts?
Check out this website: http://www.penpower.net/enversion/product/wc_mobile.html
This works great on both Trion and X01HT. It recognizes English and Chinese.

So I just purchased an Imate Jam. On my old phone (Nokia) I copied all my current contacts to my SIM card. Put SIM into Jam and I can't see any of my contacts. Put SIM into Nokia it sees them fine. How can I copy my contacts from my SIM into my Jam?
Thanks.
saldous,
there is a program called Sim Manager in the Program Files Directory.
Once loaded, it will show the contacts available. click on Edit--> Select All
Hold the stylus on one of the contacts selected and click -> Save To Contacts.
Hope this will solve your problem
Regards,
Eman
Just out of interest, does the xda use the memory on the simm for contacts, i.e. does it save to simm so when you take your simm to another phone, you take all your contacts? (no I haven't searched this question, it's spur of the moment stuff)!
Thanks, worked great.
I don't think it saves new ones to the SIM.
No, the magician is only capable of importing SIM data to its internal contacts database. The memory on today's SIM cards wouldn't be enough to hold all this information on them. I think that modern phones also don't use the SIM card to store all the extended contact informations they provide, like email addresses etc. I guess they only store one main phone number into the SIM, the rest into the phone's memory. I would prefer this solution for the Magician though, because it would at least keep the most important numbers on the SIM. Maybe this is also a speed issue (the SIM manager is quite slow).
Does anyone know how to erase contacts from the sim card once the transfer to the PDA memory is done?
What about using the delete function in the Sim manager :idea:

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!
As stated above, i want to copy my contacts from the qtek to the nokia n95.
I think i have to copy the list first of all to my simcard but dont know how.
Can someone tell me, pls?
Thanks in advance and best regards.

Cingular stores here in the US will do this for you for free. Just take them your old phone and your new phone and they will move stuff across (so that might be an easy solution if your provider will do similar).
Outside of that, you could maybe use PIMBackup (I haven't looked at the format of the file directly but I thought it was just a CSV type file) and then use a similar tool to import to your new phone.
Another option would be to get a copy of a SyncML program for your PPC device and use that to sync to a free SyncML server. Nokia phones have this built in so you could then use the new phone to pull down the contacts from that server. (Do a google search for free SyncML servers. there used to be a few. You can search here in this forum as I've posted some examples a few months ago).
But there should be a way to copy the contacts on my qtek to my simcard in teh qtek and then import my contacts to the n95 by inserting my simcard in my n95.
Greetings
I'd like to do the same.
Kind of.
I have over 100 numbers on my SIM but I only use like 30. So I want to delete all the ones I have on there and sync my contacts that I have on my phone to my SIM.
Does the N95 sync with Outlook on your PC?
If so, sync all your contacts to your PC, then sync them back to your N95 maybe??
Hello,
Is it possible to transfer contacts and sms text messages from a symbian device (nokia 6600) to a windows mobile device? (Htc Trinity)
I found enough programs to do it, but all of them are for symbian OR windows mobile, but not both...
Anyone has an idea?
Regards,
Donald.
I know what you mean, dont suppose the Nokia can be made to output data that can be read by Outlook? In which case dump the lot to outlook, then dump it back to the Trinity, et voila.
Otherwise see if it can be saved in some form of common standard... PLain text, CSV etc.
Sorry not much help otherwise
Use Nokia PC Suite to sync the Nokia phone to Outlook, then Active Sync to do Outlook to the Trinity.
Or save the contacts to the SIM on the Nokia, then import from the SIM on the Trinity.
I'll try that
Thanks, i'll try that, but i don't know if outlook can read the sms text messages from the phone, we will see...
Thanks for the tips,
Regards,
Donald.
Importing SMS into WinMob is not straight forward.
But you will very probably have to start by finding a Symbian app that can export to CSV (a generic spreadsheet type format).
FYI, Yahoo Mail is quite good at converting formats!

or..... Bluetooth.....? MInd if you have alot to shift might take some time, but it's worth a punt?
Hi there,
have you checkt Smart GSM for windows mobile? That let's you sync your Nokia with the Trinity. For me it work very well with my old 8910!!! (I'am on WM6)
I'll gonna check smartgsm, if it works i'll let you know...
Thanx for all the suggestions.
SmartGSM
SmartGSM didn't work, it just won't connect to my nokia 6600 (symbian based phone) neither through infrared or bluetooth...
Let's search for an app that can import sms text messages and export it to a format windows mobile can read...
Any idea? anybody?
Please I want to know if there are one ( software - prograam ) that I can make in my computer one Contact List and sync with my phone?
I have one BIG CONTACT LIST I don't have patientie for type this in my phone.
I have one MDA VARIO
With HTC WM6 Professional ROM
My computer have Windows VISTA and XP - i have 2 pc.
Sorry for my English but I come from Brazil, I speak Portugues. I live in Netherlands and I speak Dutch also.
Thanks.
Nina.
Vista won't be good for this, as it has historically had many sync problems with Wizard phones, so just focus on your XP machine.
If you're using Outlook to manage your contact list:
use only Activesync version 4.5 with your wizard
be sure to set up the sync to copy to both directions, then if you update one in the future, the other will automatically update (except when deleting, you'll have to delete them both manually)
If you're using Mozilla Thunderbird to manage email/contacts, you can try using FinchSync (http://www.finchsync.com/), but I cannot vouch for it's effectiveness or quality, as I have never tried it.
If you're using some other Personal Information Manager to hold your contact list, you should consider making it into a csv (Comma Separated Value) format file and importing it into Outlook for this.
...and if it is any consolation, your English is better than what I am forced to read from some native English speakers.
Thanks a lot !
Thanks a lot !
I am very glad.
