Problem transferring contacts from old mobile

The year is 2020 and now we can definitely say that we have two types of smartphones, based on Android and iOS. The era of flip phones and Symbian OS mobile phones is over, although a small percentage of this technology is still in use. The second half of the review has detailed instructions to transfer contacts and for them.

Summarize: how to export/import contacts via vcf file.

Export / import contacts in Android we do in the regular program: Contacts -> three dots -> Export / import.

Export iPhone contacts We do not do this on the phone, there is no such possibility. We export contacts in the browser. It's better to do it on a computer. We go to icloud.com, log in, Contacts button, wheel, Export vCard. We transfer the received file from the computer to the phone (via mail).

Import contacts to iPhone.

It was brief, so to speak, the summary of the review. And now in more detail.

So what are the options for modern smartphones. This is the transfer of contacts from Android to Android, from iOS to iOS. And between these systems from Android to iOS or iOS to Android.

If the transfer occurs from the same type of systems, then everything is simple. Save contacts to your account on an old Alcatel 2008g silver phone (usually this is already enabled by default). On the new phone, you log in under the same account and contacts automatically appear in the system of the new phone. For android it is cloud service Google Contacts is iCloud for iPhone.

Note: Contacts of your mobile phone Alcatel u5mini white can also be viewed or downloaded from a computer at the addresses and.

If systems of different types and contacts need to be transferred between them, for example, from Android to iPhone or iPhone to Android. There are two possible solutions here.

First option: used special program. which is also in Play Store Android and AppStore for iPhone. She will mediate. First, it will upload your contacts from the old phone to its server. Then from the server to new phone. For example, these are programs: CardDAV, My Contacts Backup and similar ones.

Second option: We copy to special file our contacts on the old phone. Then, via Whatsapp or Email, we transfer their new phone. On the new phone, run the file with contacts.

The first option is simpler and more convenient, suitable for a beginner. The second option is for those who do not want to expose their contacts to who knows. But in the second case, it will take more time and understanding of what you are doing. This option is for professionals.

Transfer contacts from Android to Android.

If you created contacts in the Contacts app on your old Android phone, they were automatically uploaded to the contacts.google.com service. You can check it out. Go to your computer (it will be more convenient) at contacts.google.com, enter your username and password and you will see a list of contacts on your phone.

Question: Where can I get the Login and Password from the contacts.google.com service?

Answer: This is the login and password that you entered when you first launched the Alcatel 5010d phone into operation. It often happens that sales assistants in a communication salon do this when buying a phone.

Question: I forgot, lost the Login and Password from the contacts.google.com service with my contacts. What to do?

Answer: In this case, you need to recover the password from Google service. To do this, you need to know the login. Login in this case is the address Email from a Google account. Log in and reset your password. Here you need to enter this email and an authorization code will be sent to your phone or to a spare email. Follow the instructions on the screen and you will recover your password.

Question: Where can I find the Email, which is the Login to the contacts.google.com service?

Answer: This can be found in the phone, in the smartphone settings. Open the phone settings and look for the section with accounts / accounts. Among them will be the desired account, i.e. Email from Google.

We figured out everything with emails, logins and passwords. They checked their accounts on the computer, saw the contacts, everything is OK. If your phone is new and you are launching it for the first time, and this is ideal, then when asked to enter your username and password from your Google account, then you enter these very login (email) and password from your contacts. Automatically should still upload your photos and videos from your old phone. This is the ideal option.

If for some reason you entered the login and password from another Google account in the new phone, where your old contacts do not exist, then you can copy the contacts from one account to another. This is done in the Contacts application, there is an item to import / export contacts to a file. Export is to save to a file. Import restore contacts from file. Accordingly, on the old phone, we export (copy) all contacts to a file. On the new phone, we import (paste) all the data into the phone from a file. The file itself is transferred from phone to phone via mail.

Export and Import of Contact Book on Android Alcatel 4013d.

Another more difficult option. Transfer contacts from account to account. To do this, on the old phone in settings-> accounts, add a second Google account (from the new phone). Now go to Contacts (on your old phone). Select a contact. In the upper right corner of the screen, click on the icon with three dots, then More -> Move to another account. And select the Google account you want to transfer the contact to. This should be done with every contact. But this is not laborious and not ideal.

It’s better not to bother so much, but while you still have a new Alcatel 4034d phone, you just got it out of the box, immediately enter the data of the old Google account from the old phone. Contacts will be loaded automatically and photos and programs from the old phone should be loaded. Think about it, maybe it makes sense for you to re-install the system on a new phone and enter the now correct login and password from the old phone before it's too late.

Question: How to reinstall the Android system on the phone?

Answer: For different models of Alcatel phones, there may be a different combination of pressing the menu buttons. First, look in the smartphone settings for the item: delete, reset all data to the factory settings of the phone. Or look at the instructions on the Internet.

Transfer contacts from Apple to Apple.

Apple technology uses an operating system iOS system. This system has a data synchronization service called iCloud. You can synchronize a lot of things: programs, photos, videos, passwords, personal data and contacts. In order for the contacts to start synchronizing or copying to the apple server, you need to click on the button. What? Open Settings - iCloud and turn on the slider opposite Contacts.

Now you can on new iphone or ipad, log in with your old Apple ID account and see your contacts. Naturally, you also need to do it there: Settings - iCloud and turn on the slider opposite the Contacts item.

Even on the computer, you can see your contacts from your Apple ID account. Go to https://www.icloud.com/ and enter your Apple ID username and password on your phone. Click the Contacts button. The list of contacts will be in front of you. Here you can save (export) all your contacts to a file. This is to make a backup (just in case) or to download them to your Android smartphone and iPhone.

Export and Import Contact Book on Apple phone.

To do this, select all contacts in the browser. Click the gear icon and click item Export vCard. This file can be downloaded to another iPhone, to Android (Contacts - three dots - Import), and to flip phones, push-button monoblocks and ancient phones of yesteryear.

vCard this is a modern contact file format, also called .vcf. Through this file, you can transfer contacts from iPhone to iPhone, for example, when the phones have different Apple ID accounts.

Question: How to transfer contacts from different accounts AppleID?

Answer 1: Download at old phone from the AppStore program My Contacts Backup. In the old phone Press the green key Backup. Then press the key Email and send a letter with the attached VCF file to your mail. On the new phone, go to your mail, find the letter with the VCF file and run it. The contacts from the file will be downloaded to your phone.

Export and Import of the Contact Book through the My Contacts Backup application.

Answer 2: If you do not want to expose your contact data to the My Contacts Backup service. Then you can do the import / export of your contacts manually.

Where to begin? As mentioned above, go to icloud.com. Sign in with your old Apple ID. Click the contacts, highlight the ones you need, then the wheel and Export vCard. Send the resulting VCF file by mail. On the new phone, open the mail, run the file and the contacts will automatically go into the contact book.

Transfer contacts from Apple to Android, from Android to Apple.

It's similar here. Or export/import contacts via VCF file. Or through an intermediary program.

I can recommend universal program for both systems CardDAV. This program is also used to constantly sync iPhone contacts with Android. If you add a contact on Android, it automatically appears on the iPhone and vice versa. Add on iPhone, appears on Android. But this program needs to be configured, there are some features. Here is the instruction.

Install on iPhone from App Store CardDAV application.

1. On iPhone go system settings, item - "Mail, Addresses, Calendars".

2. Add " New account". Then "Other", and click "CardDAV Account".

3. Fill in the parameters: Server - google.com, User - the exact name of the Google account, Password - password for the Google account, Description - any.

4. Next will be synchronization, namely: adding, changing or deleting will automatically be reflected in Android smartphone. Don't forget to set the use account CardDAV by default: System settings- Mail, Addresses, Calendars - Contacts.

Export and Import of the Book of Contacts through the application CardDAV.

For Android Alcatel 5045d

1. For Android smartphone, download from Google Play free version CardDAV.

2. Launch the application and select CardDav from the list of accounts.

3. Enter the following as the server: p02-contacts.icloud.com. Then Username and password - from your Apple ID account.

4. Enter any account name and MANDATORY check the box Sync only from server to phone.

5. Synchronization will begin and contacts will be automatically downloaded to your iPhone's memory.

To summarize: how to export / import contacts through a VCF file.

Export/import contacts in Android Alcatel we do in the regular program Contacts -> three dots -> Export / Import.

Export Contacts to iPhone we do not do it on the phone, there is no such possibility. We export contacts in the browser. It's better to do it on a computer. We go to icloud.com, log in, Contacts button, wheel, Export vCard. We transfer the received file from the computer to the phone (via mail).

Import contacts to iPhone. We just run the VCF file (aka vCard). Contacts appear automatically.

There is another way to transfer contacts from iPhone to Android.

Transfer contacts to Android via iTunes.

iTunes is a computer program. It turns out there is a button for synchronizing contacts with Google Contacts.

Instruction: sync iTunes - Contacts Google.

1. Install iTunes on your computer.

2. Connect via USB iPhone to PC.

3. In iTunes click: Select a device to receive information.

4. In the list that appears, select the "Information" item.

5. And check the box - “contact synchronization”.

6. In the drop-down list, select the "Google Contacts" item.

5. Now enter your Google account username and password.

5. Click: Allow phone contacts to sync from Android.

And a few more outdated methods for non-modern phones based on Symbian OS.

These methods are no longer relevant at the moment, but may be useful to someone. I leave them for the sake of completeness.

Further, several ways are described in detail, or rather 6 ways, how to send, transfer, save contacts, numbers and data, and a phone book from an old phone (tablet): Alcatel 2008g silver u5mini white 5010d 1016d and other models, to a new phone, computer or to a SIM card.

The most convenient way to transfer data: method number 6(data transfer via the Internet) - synchronization of the contact book via a server to the Internet. But not all Alcatel phones support it.

Transfer contact book and data from cell phone to new Alcatel smartphone or computer.

In the following, all possible ways transferring contacts, messages and calendar entries, pictures, photos, video recordings and other data from one phone to another. Choose the most convenient way for you.

Video: Save contacts from phone to computer.

1. Saving contacts on the SIM card of Alcatel phone.

Transfer via SIM card. This is the easiest and most straightforward way to transfer contacts from phone to phone. Depending on the Alcatel phone model, it is possible to transfer contact book numbers to a SIM card. If, when creating a new contact, you did not save it to a SIM card, then in order to transfer contacts from the phone’s memory to a SIM card, you need to execute the command in the phone - copy contacts from the phone's contact book to a SIM card (not supported by all models).

Tip for simple feature phones. Experience with contacts shows that when creating an important contact, it is best to immediately save it to the SIM card. Even despite the fact that there are few fields in the SIM card, there are no Email, Additional Information, fields for Additional Phones. But the SIM card, as a rule, is used for years, and the phones change with the user, approximately every 1-3 years. In this case, when buying a new Alcatel phone, all important contacts will always be reflected in his phone book without any problems. You don't need to do anything for this, just insert old sim card to a new phone. But do not forget to make backup copies of your contacts from time to time. For example, copy them to some old phone.

- When copying to a SIM card, some information is lost. Firstly, long strings of First Name and Last Name are cut off and additional information about the contact cannot be saved on the SIM card: Address, Additional Phone, E-mail and other contact records.

Another disadvantage of such a transfer is the small amount of memory of the SIM card, on which you can save about 200-250 entries. Therefore, this method is not suitable for saving large phone books.

2. Exchange of business cards between Alcatel phones.

- A lot of modern phones allow you to create "electronic business cards"- files in the format .vcf(Virtual Card File), which are designed to store and transfer personal data.

Such a contact, a business card, can be transferred to another phone that supports the vCard format by any of the methods supported by the phones: via an Internet service, google account, via mail, Bluetooth, WiFi, infrared or memory card.

It is especially convenient to transfer VCard contacts from an outdated Alcatel phone to another phone via Bluetooth (this used to be the most advanced and technologically advanced way). First you need to connect two phones via Bluetooth. Then you go to "Contact" and give the command to send it via Bluetooth. On the second phone, a message appears, "Accept contact", you press "Save".

And also, it is convenient to transfer contacts in VCard format via a USB flash drive - a removable memory card of the phone. On the old phone in the menu, you copy contacts to a memory card. You take it out and insert it into a new Alcatel phone or another. In the new phone, through the menu, you import contacts into the contact book. You can also not copy to a USB flash drive, but send it via the Internet to a new phone. Email or Whatsapp will work for this.

The vCard format is compatible with almost any email program, for example Microsoft Outlook(more on how to use it later). This allows you to save contacts from your Alcatel phone to your computer, and edit them on it, as well as create new contacts, on the convenient large screen of your computer and using the PC keyboard.

In order to create an electronic business card on a PC, you need to open Microsoft Outlook, create an entry (contact) in it and through the command File > Save As > Format vCard (.vcf), save it in a format understandable to your mobile phone. Further, this contact - a business card, can be transferred to a mobile phone using any phone feature: Email, Bluetooth, memory card, WiFi, DATA cable, IR port, USB cable or flash drive (memory card).

3. Proprietary contacts synchronization utilities for Alcatel.

Use of proprietary software. This is when copying and transferring data from an Alcatel phone to a computer is carried out through special Software (driver, program). All more or less well-known manufacturers of mobile equipment: Alcatel and others, specially create and distribute such programs that allow you to enter the phone's memory from a PC. But this is true for outdated models, push-button phones.

When using a phone manufacturer's proprietary program, first a backup copy address book on the PC of an old Alcatel phone. Then a new phone of the same manufacturer is connected to the computer: Alcatel and in the same program, the contact book is transferred to the memory of the new phone.

But keep in mind that phones of different price ranges are not able to connect to a computer or laptop. They may or may not have Wi-Fi or USB or Bluetooth.

Another problem is that different phone models have a different number of fields in the contact book. Because of this, when transferring contacts from an expensive model to a budget model of the same manufacturer, the contacts will not be transferred correctly. For example, if you transfer a Misha contact containing 6 phone numbers to a simple phone, you can get six contacts named Misha, each with one number. Or such data is simply lost during the transfer.

And if the transfer needs to be done between phones different manufacturers, then not Alcatel proprietary software is used, but universal software for synchronizing phone data with a computer and with different models, different manufacturers.

- In addition to branded programs, there are alternative (universal) contact synchronization programs that allow you to transfer address books between phones various models and manufacturers.

For example, the program MobilEdit. This program supports many phone models. But keep in mind that this program may also not correctly transfer contacts from an Alcatel phone to another phone, breaking one contact into several. And also, it may not support some models of company phones. There is no ideal option for all occasions.

4.Transfer Alcatel phone contacts via computer.

The classic way to transfer contacts from mobile to mobile is to use Alcatel's Proprietary Software or a similar program mentioned earlier, such as MobilEdit and others. In this case, the phone is connected to the computer via cable or Bluetooth or Wi-Fi or infrared. Next, the data synchronization program is launched and contacts are copied from the Alcatel phone database to the PC. If the models match or the phone manufacturer is the same, this method is effective. If the old and new phone are from different manufacturers, then in addition to the proprietary program of the phone manufacturer, the "intermediary" program is used - the program Microsoft Outlook(from package Microsoft office, do not confuse with email client Outlook Express).

Program Microsoft outlook, included with the Microsoft Office suite of programs can be used as a contact database that can be accessed by a variety of mobile devices. It is convenient to edit Outlook address book fields on a computer or laptop, add new fields or entries, and then synchronize them with cell phones of almost any model and manufacturer.

So, to transfer contacts through a computer or laptop, you need:
- Microsoft Outlook (from the Microsoft Office software package).
- a proprietary program of the phone manufacturer Alcatel (see on the Alcatel website or on the CD-ROM from the phone), which allows you to read data from the address book of the Alcatel phone, followed by writing them to the Outlook database.
- and depending on the method of connecting the phone to the PC, you need: Cable, IR or Bluetooth connection, WiFi connection.

Microsoft Outlook- the most common program for storing personal data or a contact book. Almost all developers of programs for synchronizing mobile phones use it as a database.

- Contacts in Outlook are standardized and include: full name, company name, home address, four fields for entering phone numbers, e-mail address and website, and additional fields.

All phone manufacturers try to bring the number of fields in the address books of mobile phones as close as possible to this standard. But despite all efforts to standardize contacts with the Outlook program, in reality, the phone books of some Alcatel phone models can differ greatly from this standard. Because of this, a clean and correct transfer of contacts from one mobile to another is not always possible, even on phones from the same manufacturer. Full correspondence of fields in the old and new devices can be achieved only with a minimum number of fields in the record. For example: First Name, Last Name and a couple of Phone Numbers.

That was theory, now practice. For transfer contacts from phone to Outlook database, it is necessary to connect a mobile phone to a PC, using a cable or wireless device. Using the capabilities of the phone, in our case Alcatel and a computer, set up a connection between the phone and the PC.

Second, find, bundled with the telephone, software that includes required drivers and utilities for synchronization with PC. If a disk with software could not be found, it must be downloaded from the Alcatel website via the Internet.

After installing the drivers and the proprietary program from the disk, give the command in it copy the phone book to Outlook format.

After transferring the contact database from a mobile phone to a PC, you can connect a second device and synchronize in the opposite direction, using either the phone's proprietary software or a universal program for synchronizing your phone with a PC.

5.Export the contact book through the "safe" mode of the Alcatel phone.

In addition to synchronization through Outlook, for smartphones and Alcatel phones, there are other methods for transferring contacts. For example, the method of copying the phonebook directly from file system phone and then converting it to standard file spreadsheet - .csv

You must warn that incorrect actions with folders and files on your phone in safe mode , may make it inoperable and loss of warranty on the phone.

- Contact data in the phone is stored in a file contact.cdb in the phone's DATA folder. To copy data, you need to connect your Alcatel phone to a PC via USB and boot your smartphone in safe mode.

To do this, when booting the Alcatel phone, hold down the ABC key, for some models you need to hold the pound key. For touch smartphones, when the OS is rebooted, the main iron key "Home", "On / Off" is held. or "Back".

Next, going to save mode, with help file manager, for example Total Commander, you need to go to the phone and rename the DATA folder, for example, to Data1. Then copy the contact.cdb file to your PC. After copying the file, you need to rename the Data1 folder in the phone back to the Data folder and reboot the phone in normal mode. If you forget to do this, you can break the phone, make it inoperable, lose the warranty, without the possibility of restoring it.

Having a file with a contact database - contact.cdb, it can be transferred to a new device, in the same way, by loading a new smartphone in safe mode, renaming the DATA folder, replacing the contact.cdb file with another one, returning the folder to its original name and rebooting the mobile phone in normal mode.

The possibility of killing the device with inattentive actions is quite large, therefore:

The transfer method described above is recommended use only as a last resort when you already have a very old phone and there are a lot of contacts and other possibilities for transferring contacts through synchronization programs cell phone Alcatel from a PC or via the Internet is not.

Additionally, it is necessary to clarify: the contact.cdb file copied from the smartphone OS can be modified and edited. To do this, it must be converted to a tabular format.CSV. This can be done using the appropriate program, for example Contact Manager Agora (www.agora.cz).
