The only 2 ways I know are:
1) In Nokia select all contacts and send them via Bluetooth to the TP (5 minutes)
2) Sincro Nokia with MS Outlook and then MS Outlook with TP (longer but better for the future)
Mind you, if you've got more than 2-3 numbers/name you might have a problem. During my sync with my N73 I've lost a lot of numbers - thank God I've checked it right after and sorted it out, but it was quite a work to do with nearly 700 contacts...
Just check all the entries when you're done with the transfer.

Hi,
I've successfully download my contacts from my 6310i.

Yes it does, using the Nokia PC suite.
I've done it with 6510 and 6610, and worked ok.
To be honest I do not remember exactly how I did it, since it is almost a year, but this is the way I did transfer my contacts when started using the XDA II.

Hi,
Need to know as to how to transfer contacts from my Nokia 6600 to MDA II. I tried all Forums but couldn't find a solution for the same. Should we do it manually or do we have a tool to do the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

sync both with outlook would prob work
I used PC Suite for Nokia 6600 to Sync it with Outlook, and the end result was disgusting all i got was my Outlook contacts getting added to my Nokia I had to manually delete them all over again. I repeat, Is there a way to transfer my Phone contacts from Nokia 6600 to my MDA II.
I did this some few years back and cannot remember exactly and I can't re-try it now.
From my memory in my head, Sync the Nokia with PC (not outlook, just normal sync) is step 1, and I think you search the Nokia directories, you should able to see your contacts are all in *.VCF format or somehow it could be exported to *.vcf format.
Copy all this *.vcf files to your hardisk.
You can either double click on this *.vcf files one by one in
1. PC and it goes to your outlook which you can sync with PPC later or
2. PPC and it goes to Contact.
Hope my memory is still correct. Good Luck.
Something which I never tried, Infra-red or Bluetooth the 2 device directly?
As Rudegar suggested, did some R&D and was finally able to transfer them All.....Yippeeeeeeeeee > I had a Question here, which takes precedence when we Sync up the MDA, the Outlook contacts or the Phone contacts. For e.g., I delete a contact from my Phone and do a Sync, will it get deleted from Outlook or will be re-instated from Outlook????? or do we have a setting wherein we can choose what to do???? Any thoughts folks.....

For PPC Phone, which Contact to keep can be set on both PPC & PC. Make sure both side is the same. Else both will get confused.
How do you transfer contacts to new phone - not via Outlook.
My Outlook syncs with my corporate network the contacts DB is huge - > 3000 entries.
My 2004 XDAII has 200 contacts - half of them personal.
I need a way of getting contacts from the old XDAII to the new HTC P3600i
I can't go via Outlook on my laptop.
One way is to put PIM-backup from DotFred on your devices and do it that way.

1. welcome to XDA-Dev
2. as a rule of thumb, you will want to read ALL my even past articles and tutorials. I've dedicated a complete tutorial on all these questions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317789
Thanks I will try these suggestions.
I actually found that I could do this pretty simply with bluetooth.
Setup a bluetooth partnership and then select all and beam contacts from old phone to new.
I'm thinking of trying symbian platform.. Nokia E61i to be specific. Can anyone suggest any painfree way to transfer all my PIM data to the Nokia?
Thanks..

transfer from what?
btw my bet would be maybe through outlook but i'm not sure if symbian supports that
Nokia!?!??
Loll.. well some newer Nokia models have very good .. almost pda like features. Plus they are excellent in multimedia, fast firmware, and nokia e61i is a blackberry-ish device.But the biggest hurdle is all my contacts, appointments, tasks, etc. etc... meaning, how to transfer them from my jamin to a symbian device?
I had a e61 before my i780 - if you use Outlook, forget it - it will drive you nuts - symbian doesn't synch things like categories and is much poorer for PIM.
Yes it will synch with outlook but in a crippled manner.
Use Outlook 2003
Simply sync with Outlook 2003 and then use the Nokia PC Suit to sync again with your symbian. Alternatively you can use Yahoo GO to sync online. Use Yahoo GO on your symbian too...
I Love Symbian Phones....
My Sony Ericsson P990 sync'd with Outlook way quicker and more reliably than any WM device I have used. Sony Ericsson's equivalent to activesync is also much better than Activesync in my opinion because you can turn it off when not using it.

My experience as well. I have never gotten even one duplicate entry using SE's PC Suite. And you can check the report to see exactly what was synced. The only thing missing is the ability to sync notes with jotted drawings.
Thanks a lot for all the help guys.. so synching with outlook would take care of contacts, tasks and appointments?? What about smses.. ? I don't think outlook would do that, would it?

I don't think there's an option for synching SMS; wish there was, I've got a few thousand on my Dual.
I was just searching for something to transfer SMS from WM to Nokia and I found this:
http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/t5/PC-and-Mac-Software/Migrating-from-Windows-Mobile-to-Nokia/td-p/747754
For exporting the messages to csv, I used the freeware PIM Backup (http://www.dotfred.net/). This software archives your messages (and lots of other stuff) to a PIB-file on the mobile device. I copied the file to my PC, renamed to .zip and unpacked the contained files. One of them is called msgs_*.csm - this is a csv-file that holds all the messages of the WinMo device. Problem is: the format is totally different from what PC suite expects. Here is a litte Perl-script that does the conversion:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Encode qw/encode decode/;
@na=(0,"Inbox","Outbox","SentItems","DeletedItems","Drafts");
read STDIN, $i, 2;
while (read(STDIN, $i, 4096)) {$s.=decode("UCS-2LE", $i);}
@a=split(/(?<=\")\r\n/,$s);
@idx=();$i=0;
for(split(/;/,shift(@a))) { $idx{$_}=$i++;}
for (@a) {
$_ or next;
@b=split /(?<!\\);/;
$b[$idx{"Account"}] ne '"SMS"' and next;
($f=$b[$idx{"Folder"}])=~s/^\"\\\\%MDF(\d)\"$/$1/;
($sa=$b[$idx{"Sender Address"}])=~s/^.*?<?([\+0-9]+)>?.*$/"$1"/;
$rc='"'.(split(/\\;/,$b[$idx{"Recipients"}]))[2].'"';
@t=split(/,/,$b[$idx{"Modify Time"}]);
($su=encode("UTF-8", $b[$idx{"Subject"}]))=~s/\r?\n/ /g;
$s="sms;".(($f==1||$f==4)?"deliver":"submit").";".(($f==1||$f==4)?"$sa;\"\"":"\"\";$rc").
";\"\";\"$t[0].$t[1].$t[2] $t[3]:$t[4]\";\"\";$su\r\n";
if (!fileno("FD$f")) {open "FD$f",">",$na[$f].".csv";}
syswrite "FD$f", $s, length($s);
I havent tried it as i dont know how to use pearl script....
Can any one here explain in detail about how to use it.....
It might be helpful to many.......
Hello friends .
Can somebody please clarify how to do this :
I have about more than 1100 contacts on my Sony Ericsson P1i phone and many of them has a second or third Mobile Phones under same contact.
When I transfer these to HTC Touch Pro (or any WM device) only 1 of the Mobile phones is transferred.
The same thing applies to other fields too , if the person has 3 home numbers only 1 or 2 of them get stored under outlook.
Can you please explain if there is a work around for this . Or maybe any 3rd party software ?
Thanks
YG
How are you transferring them? Are you using Outlook or some other method?
Well since I have around 1100 contacts , I guess it would be difficult to tranfer them 1 by 1 by bluetooth.
However, even if I did that , The 2nd and 3rd mobile phones get lost during transfer.
I'm guessing that the best way would be that I transfer all contacts from P1i to PC by using SE P1i's syncronising tool PC SUITE to Microsoft Outlook.
I did that already but all of the second mobile phones were already lost.... I thought of correcting them on Outlook but I could not find a way to rename fields on Outlook.
I'm OK with Outlook, or I also OK with another 3rd party software .
Any ideas please ?
Hi,
I've the same thing. You need to use "Float Mobile agent":
http://fma.sourceforge.net/
Sync it with your SonyEricsson phone to have all the contacts in the computer. Then export the contacts from the float interface into outlook and sync Touch Pro with ActiveSync.
You should now have all these contacts in your touch pro

Wow ,,,,,, My mouth is already watering I can't wait to test it )))
EDIT : I downloaded the program ans installed it. However when I connect the Sony Ericsson P1, it's reading my contacts 1 person per telephone number.
This means If I have for example Michael A . It creates 3 entries for Michael A if he has 3 phones. it should be 1 only, I have also signed in the forum but each forum is protected by Password, so I can't view Outlook SYNC problems forum. How do I write my contacts to Outlook ?
I had that problem previously. Which is why I have more than one listing for people who have more than one cellphone. E.g. John Smith-Globe and John Smith-Smart.
It was the only way I can easily transfer my contacts between phones without any problems. So I've been doing that for as long as I can remember.
You can't have more than 1 mobile number per contact with WM so you will have to change the name of your contacts that have more than one number otherwise you will lose them.
It sucks but it is the only way and I do not think any software will do this for you.
Cheers
Can't Microsoft imagine that a person might have 2 more more cell phones ??
How stupid is that ???

Hi again,
The password is "fma". It isn't secret, it is just top stop the spammers.
Ask your questions there, they are sure to help.

Thanks for the reply
However this FMA only allows me to have 1 telephone number for each contact. No matter if work phone or mobile phone, so I have multiple entries if my contact has multiple numbers. I can not see all numbers under same contact.
What do I have to do ? Is yours like this as well ?
do you have the latest outlook ? (2007? or something?) I had no problems converting p990i>TP with newest pc suite, outlook 2007 and activesync...
I'm sure you have errors in your vontacts that you have not noticed yet.
See your contacts and see if any of your contacts have 2 or more mobile phone numbers stored.
Or maybe by chance all your contacts have only one mobile phone
Now I'm almost sure it's impossible to do , I wish somebody could prove me wrong...
If I might just add, there is one other way you transfer your contacts from your P1 to your windows mobile device. Setup yourself a Mail2Web Account up, and then grab activesync software for your phone. Then synchronize your contacts with the online exchange and then you have a handy backup of all 1100 contacts. I personally would hate to lose them, this just gives you the extra assurance. I'm not certain if the P1 has, but it takes the hassle out of migrating. This method can also be used when upgrading your ROM.

So I have no worries on that
contact issue
i hav same prob. i transferred cont from my n73 to htc touch, it was working well. unfortunately after install some third party application, i don't know which one, it see only 1 number lost all other numbers. any solution pls..
I also have a P1i and I bought the Touch Pro 1 month ago. But I am still using the P1i!! I didn't even tried to import the contacts yet, because the Touch Pro is very buggy to use daily.
