I'm a bit stuck...
I've got no clue how to do this the easy way;
A customer has bought a 6260 of me and has asked me to transfer his contact list from his old 9210 to the 6260.
Big mouthed as I am I said OK, but now I deeply regrtet my actions
How do I do this more easily than beaming one contact at the time via IR? Is there a "Send all contacts" option on the old 9210?
What it all boils down to is; I'm in dire straights here!
Someone with a bit of Nokia knowldge please help...

I think oxygen phone manager could be of help...but i doubt whether the 6260 is supported by it. _________________

I've never had anything against Nokia but...
I'm still working on this!
Why not just have the "send all" option and beam the whole thing over via IR?!!!
No, listen to this; Install PC Suite for Nokia 9210i, do a back up, move contacts over to Outlook, uninstall PC suite for 9210i, install PC suite for 6260 and sync it.
I started on this 3 1/2 houres ago and I'm still on the back up of the 9210!!!
Come on Nokia!
You've got to find an easier way to do this!

Can you not do it via a SIM card?
My (backup) Nokia 1100 has "Copy > From phone to SIM card" and "Copy > From SIM Card to phone" in the Phonebook menu.

u dont have a sim copier?

You likely need PC suite to do that all at once.

I've given up!!!
My Outlook is too new, the contacts can't be copied to SIM and by moving them to the memorystick they become "unreadable" for a PC.
When I opened this topic I had been at it for an hour or so.
Now; I'm throwing in the towel!!!

I spent 6 (!!!!!!!!!) houres trying to sort that bloomin' Communicator out today.
I hereby announce myself (officially) as a Nokia ha... (No, hater is too strong) ...disliker!
Aquard! Difficult! Old fashioned! Anoying! Daft! Dicky! Dippy! Dodgy! Duff!
(Sorry to those of you who don't mind being seen carrying a Nokia, but you'll never see me with one...)

It is a simple task. Don't crucify Nokia yet. I've done this kind of things several times, and help others to do it over the phone.
Open the Phonebook Contacts in 9210
From the 9210, select Copy All Contacts to Sim Card
Remove the Sim Card from the 9210 and insert in 6260
Open the Contacts in 6260 and navigate to the Sim Card
Select Copy All Contacts to Phonebook
That should solve your problem.

yup diakim is right, that was just wat i was gonna suggest.
Posted by mmsman
you can't really do that if you have about 500 contacts.....

That will make tranquil happy,

@diakim
Copying to SIM card is an old fashion way. First of all SIM cards cannot hold long names, and cannot sort all contact info such as multiple numbers, address and e-mails.
That's why I love SE you have the option to send EVERYTHING with a click of a button.

There is another way to transfer contacts from a N9210 to a N6260... use Outlook. Sync the contacts from the N9210 to a new contacts folder in Outlook and then connect the N6260 to Outlook and sync the contacts from the folder into the N6260. All this can be done by using Nokia Pc Suite app. The only thing to keep in mind is that when you start with the N9210 sync, use the Pc suite version that was in the N9210 box. When you then sync back into the N6260; use the Pc suite version that came along with the N6260. Newer Pc suite version sometimes don't recognise older models and the other way around (offcourse). This is how we always avoid problems with copying to simcards etc.. Good Luck!

I tenasfered all my contacts from my V800 to a Z600 in 2 minutes this morning
I would have thought Nokia would have put on a similar send all function that se use.
Posted by diakim
Would have been much better though if both phones have bluetooth.
Maybe you should check Nokia's website if there is a utility that allows you to transfer contacts from one Nokia phone to the other. I know there is one to transfer data between the 9210 Communicator and it's older brother. I've used that before.
