Shouldn't your contacts be synched to Google? I.e. sign in to nexus and voila, contacts.

The contacts app on the N5 can import vcf files.

Or import those CSV contacts to Google Contacts and clean them up on the PC then your phone will sync them down as you add/change them.
Much easier than trying to do them on the phone manually.

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.

google sync for blackberry, sync up your contacts from the bold to google, then add your google account to infuse, sync contacts.
settings > accounts and sync
done.

Go to your address book > go to contact > press trackball >
press menu and select Copy to Sim Phone Book >
press menu again and select save.
You cannot do this in masse, only one at a time.
Or
I'm not real familial with RIM but you might be able to back up with Google, Exchange, or what ever RIM uses and from there put them on your Google contacts, and they will show up on your phone.

Dang sorry. If you need any more help just ask anyone.
download blackberry desktop manager, sync your BB to Microsoft outlook. then from outlook export your contacts to a .csv file(comma separated values), then log into gmail and import your contacts with the .csv file. then sync your phone with Google.

What ROM you on? There is an issue with the XDA special being worked on but I still was able to import my contacts. I also made a vcard file to save to my SDcard by importing to my PC from gmail just in case. Then they can be imported to phone from SDcard.
First import contacts from SD, then sync with google account. If they doesn't appear, download aContact from the market.It's free and will allow you to edit'em so they will appear.
Open Contacts- go to display option, click your google account then check the box of all other contacts....
hello, i have a doc file with thousands of phone numbers, and i was wondering if there's a way to transfer all those numbers to my android device?
If you set the file format up properly in a csv you should be able to import them into your gmail account on a PC which should then sync to your phone.
HTH
I've also seen apps that will export and import CSV files from your SD card. Just search the market for "contacts csv" and you will find several.
