Transfer Nokia contacts to iPhone 4

"I am going to wipe all the contacts on my iPhone 4 today. Because I buy this second hand iPhone 4 from eBay. It works well. However, there are many contacts on it and I don't want them stay at my phone. So I want to delete all of them. The question is that I put all my contacts on my old Nokia mobile. I want to have all the contacts be transfered to iPhone through iTunes without duplicating or missing any contact (that includes pictures attached, emails, birthdays and notes).. Can I?"

Answer:
Well. Apple iPhone users apply the iTunes to manage iPhone contacts while it can't manage Nokia mobile contacts. However we know that there is a universal program that come with Nokia. Yes, that's Nokia PC Suite. Why you need Nokia PC Suite because Nokia PC Suite works the same way for export and backup Nokia mobile phone contacts, so if you sync those contacts to a pc/mac through Nokia PC suite then you will be having everything on your pc ready to be transfered to iPhone without duplicating or missing any contact (that includes pictures attached, emails, birthdays and notes).. Here is how.


  • Start Nokia PC Suite
  • Select Tools > Options
  • Select Contacts
  • Choose the email application you want to sync with – e.g.: Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express or Mozilla Thunderbird
  • Click OK
  • From the Sync > Sync now > Contacts

    Sync Nokia contacts to Outlook.


    Read contacts on Outlook

Now, you have exported all Nokia contacts to Outlook. And the contacts already on there. So, next step we should transfer contacts from Outlook to iPhone.
