transferring contacts to iPhone

Transferring your contacts to your new phone can be done in a number of ways, which ever you prefer. Details and step by step guides can be found below:

For non iPhone users please see transfer your contacts.

Important: It's recommended that the transfer contacts process is completed after you have received your Wi-Fi SMS. This message provides you with your login and password to access BT Openzone Wi-Fi access hotspots around the UK , providing you high speed internet access. This will be sent to you on the day of connection, following your SIM updates. The instructions on this message should be followed to set up. Should you experience issues receiving this SMS, please see what do I do if I've lost my iPhone Wi-Fi password? for instructions on how to request a new password.

If your old device is an iPhone we recommend copying your contacts from your iTunes account. It's advisable to check your contacts are up to date before activating your new phone.

If you're planning to recycle your old phone, you must ensure that you have saved and copied your contacts whilst in store. Copying from your old SIM card is not possible with the new iPhone 4 due to it using a different SIM size.

syncing contacts with your iTunes account

Please note: Before syncing any contacts you need to make sure that you have at least one contact on both handset and relevant address book (outlook, Google, Yahoo etc).
