How can I export my contact list into my new mobile phone?

[Misty]

I would like to be able to transfer all my contacts from outlook into my new
Nokia E51 mobile phone. I am pretty well computer illiterate, so would be so
greatful for step by step instuctions in baby language!

Why ask here? How is this an Outlook question?

 

[Misty]

How can you not understand that?? I have asked how can I get the contacts
from my OUTLOOK contact list into my mobile. Why cant you understand that???

The software that ypur phone uses to synchronise is the software you need to
use to get the Contacts into the phone.

Follow the instructions that are on the CD which came with your new phone.
Also Nokia's web site may have some useful pages. They may also have their
own user support area where you can get help specific to your Nokia
software.

If a device is able to sync with Outlook, then the software to do so and the
instructions on how to use it are the sole purview of the device
manufacturer. Other Outlook end users would not have that information. Your
question is for Nokia, not Outlook.

Read the documentation that came with your phone.

Read the documentation that came with your phone.

Nokia apparently does not provide for importation of other than .vcf files.
That would mean exporting one-by-one all contacts from Outlook. What might
be helpful if Outlook was not so limited in how it exports contacts.

It's hard not to be impressed by your consistently arrogant & unhelpful
replies.

Happy Thanksgiving

It's equally hard to understand your criticism. Certain realities are
inescapable. They include:
1. Synchronization has nothing to do with exporting
2. Outlook does not participate in the synchronization process. Outlook's
only job is to present a consistent interface to any synchronization
software that want to access its database. It does exactly that. It can do
no more.
3. Synchronization issues are the sole purview of the software that wants to
synchronize with Outlook's database.
Further deponits saith not.

Yes it does. See if the Nokia PC Suite supports your phone. That will
synchronise contacts, calendar and everything easily.
You obviously didn't look very hard, did you?

Simply because you choose not to accept the truth does not mean I'm
arrogant.
