Hi All,

I've bought a new htc wildfire s on o2 payg. My iphone contract has expired and my number is being ported over to the new phone today.

Problem is, how do I transfer all my contacts from the iphone to the htc??

Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Owen.

    If I don't want to go that route and purchase and install software. Is there a way to connect the htc to the computer and enter the contacts manually? that would be a lot quicker than trying to do it on the phone keypad.

    Thanks again.

    Create a gmail account (you may have already done it for the new phone) Sync the iPhone to it and send the contacts up, then sync the HTC to bring them down.

    Thanks guys,

    I could not get the contacts to upload from the iphone to gmail, so what I done in the end was just manually typed all my contacts into gmail and then synced them to my htc. It didn't actually take that long and I had about 50 redundant contacts anyway, so was a good clear out.

    Thanks again....:beer:
