Is this possible? Even with Bluetooth?
Thanks
Nope, BitPM doesn't work with the Android OS.
Easiest method (the way I did it) is to export your contacts from BitPM to a .csv file and then import that into your gmail account (logged in to gmail on your computer with a web browser).
Your gmail will sync with your Android phone and all our contacts will come down.

Ok, I've given up trying to figure this out on my own, simply because the unfortunate keywords involved will show me Google results on just about anything other than what I need.
I want to sync my Windows contacts to Tab. Kies software does not see them. I don't have an Outlook, since Windows 7 64 bit has live mail instead. I've tried exporting contacts to VCF format, and then importing them through Kies but that didn't help either.
I also have an iPhone 3Gs that syncs to the same computer, using those same Windows contacts without a problem. Is there a way to get the contacts from iPhone?
I may be asking too much, but I'd also love to keep my contact photos that are neatly attached to many of my contacts.
This is really driving me crazy and any help would be appreciated.
Why not try exporting your contacts to CSV and then import the file into your Google address book (Contacts) online?

I don't really use Gmail. I have private server POP mail accounts and I keep my contacts on my iPhone, laptop and home PC.
Am I to get used to idea I'm gonna have to start using Google for e-mail, contacts, calendar etc.?
Use contact manager on your iphone to create a CSV and then email the file through the app to any email address you use, then on your tab log into that email account and save the CSV to your tab, then on the tab to into contacts and select import and it should find the file and loads them
that's how I did it

The problem is that CSV file doesn't pass contacts photos.

Export to VCF and import that into Google's Contacts. You don't need to really use gmail if you don't want to, but the gmail address book is the most convenient way of keeping track of your contacts. Plus you can then edit them from any PC with a web browser..
VCF (vCard) can embed images. I don't know if M$ Live Mail can write VCF with embedded images, though. But thats what you should try.
Just sync it with outlook contacts u can update with iphone and then pass to the tab. That's what in doing and when I change anything on the tab I just create a new sync so the.next sync with the.iphone will be clean and won't replace any contact.

You can export your outlook contacts as a csv file then email it to your gmail account

So here is what I've done and tryed sofar to be able to sync my contacts with GMail account:
-Created a seperate Gmail account for contacts backup and sync only.
-exported the contacts on my phone to SD card into csv file and imported them to my GMail account.
-Because I learned Gmail will only sync with google contacts, I wiped the contacts from my phone and imported the same csv again from the SD card into my Gmail backup account on the phone that is setup to sync to that specific account for contacts only.
After that every time I make changes into my Gmail (like adding a postal address) and sync with my phone, the changes don't show on my phone.
I've tryed sync with the google exchange server also and the MyPhoneExplorer application also without luck.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?
Also I would like to know iff there's a way when you put a birthday into the contactsinfo to make it show up automaticly into your callendar and have a notification?
Grtz,

hello-
I tried the search function for the Xoom for this question but no dice:
http://motorola-xoom-tablet-help.blogspot.com/2011/03/how-to-sync-xoom-with-outlook-via.html
I used the above link to try to import contacts from Outlook into my Xoom. In the instructions, it says to make a comma separated values file, which I did, and import into my Xoom, which I did.
On the third step, it says the following: 3. On your Xoom tablet, log into the Google account and select Gmail > Conacts and import the CSV file to transfer contacts.
So I opened my gmail account (the envelope with the M partially in it), but I don't see a Gmail ->Contacts selection anywhere, so I'm a bit lost.
Anyway, I have the outlook CSV excel file on my Xoom. How do I get these contacts on my Xoom, or should I be doing this a different way?
Thanks!
The way I did it was log on to googlemail via Windows XP. I clicked onto contacts in Google Mail and then under "More Actions" there is an "Import" option. I imported my CSV file from there
And then I synced my device.
I hope this helps

Ah, you did it on the main computer. I was doing it on Xoom....or at least trying to. I'll give that a try when I get home. Thanks!
I use My Phone Explorer.
With it I get my Outlook contacts and Calendar in my Xoom.
I need some help here...............
I am running stock mango. Phone wont sync all my contacts with any 1 client. Some are on Google, some on Facebook, and some yet on Live/Hotmail.
How do I push all of my contacts to one place for off phone storage?
Is there anyway to get all of my contacts to sync somewhere away from the phone in the event I lose my phone or all data is lost?
There must be something somewhere????
Btw, syncing contacts to Windows Live is a nightmare.
Now since you mentioned Google, I suggest you sync/backup your contacts there.
Settings, (system tab) e-mail+accounts, Google, check the box for Contacts
If you have others, uncheck Contacts in all other accounts.
Now go to Settings (applications tab) people, filter my contact list and choose whatever you like but make sure you uncheck "Windows Live".
Sync, and all your contacts should be backed in Gmail (check Contacts there from a PC).
Alternatively, if you can save your contact list as a .CSV file and import directly in Gmail (in your desktop's browser).
Thanks for the help!!
The only account that I have a checkbox for contacts in is Google, even windows live doesnt have a checkbox.
I went into setting>application>people>filter and unchecked windows live from sync and tried again, still wont load.
I have some of my contacts stored in Google, but not ALL of them!
How do I create a .csv file on my phone and export into google?
It's normal to see the checkbox only in Gmail.
Make sure on PC you check properly your Gmail account in Contacts, you should see "My Contacts" and "Imported MM/DD/YY" if you import them via CSV. Also, You might want to make sure the contacts from your SIM are on the phone (might be why you're missing some contacts).
Alternatively, you can edit your contacts yourself in Gmail.
This guide might prove very useful to you for transferring, importing, exporting contacts.
Still no dice. Cant find how to access my contacts via SIM since doing the Mango update.
This is getting frustrating. No one is having the same problem with the Arrive?
Import or Export ?
I am sorry but I am bit lost in the conversation.
What is that you want to do ?
Import Contacts in the Phone or Export Contacts from the Phone to somewhere else ?
I want my contacts exported somewhere, that way if my phone crashes or is lost I have all of my contacts stored offline somewhere safe.
WP7 says this is done automatically through Windows Live and Google......its not happening on my phone, only SOME contacts are stored in each

I've historically had the opposite experience. I think Gmail contacts & calendars are both pretty inconsistent, and my Live account has been 100x better to sync with. I even had issues on Android with Gmail contacts/calendar.
Still cant sync contacts or calendar with Gmail........any suggestions? I cant be the only one with this issue, can I?
Is there an App for Google yet on Mango?
I posted this elsewhere on the forums a moment ago and it relates to getting google contacts to sync with my Nokia Lumia 800.
I set it all up nicely and then found that none of my google phone numbers were synced. I had a similar experience with my old android phone (well the opposite problem actually)
I fixed this by highlighting all my contacts in google on a PC and making sure they were all in the "my contacts" group as that seems to be the only group that the phone will sync. Once done, all of my contacts were there.
Don't sync the google calendar so cant comment
enjoy!
How can I transfer the contacts from WM 6 to Windows Phone?
A quick search found the Outlook method, but I don't use Outlook and I don't have the app. Another way is copying each contact to SIM and then transfering but that is very time consuming.
Any other ways?
At least in Nokia there is a Contact Transfer application in the application menu. This works like a charm.
I don't think ActiveSync has that option.
You can transfer all your contacts to "cloud" from google: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299. On WP7 device add this account like exchange serwer and done. But you have to remember:
10. Check Contacts, Calendar, or Email, depending on which you'd like to sync. (Tasks is not supported and will lead to an error if checked.)

Here is what I did.
Saved contacts as cbf file to my PC and imported in my Google Mail account.
Now, I synced WP7 with the Gmail account. The contacts are there in the list with the numbers and I cannot call. There's no option or button for that.
EDIT: Now I checked the contacts in my Gmail account. The First, Middle and Last name are fine but the numbers are saved as notes, like
Mobile: **********
FileAs: First, Last name
I think, I got a fix for this.
If anyone any export any 1 or 2 contacts from their Gmail account which must have mobile tel, and preferrably work tel, home tel and email also and send the file to me.
You can replace the numbers by 00 or anything. Export in CSV file.
I just need the 'Fields' the gmail uses for numbers.
I am using imobiletool contacts.
