Transferring Contacts

[swinno73]

Hi,

My wife wants to transfer contacts from her iphone 3 to iphone 4s using our laptop, but itunes on the laptop was set up my me and has all my contacts, apps and music on it.

Is there any way she can sync her contacts from her old phone to the new one without transferring my contacts with them?

Also, I want her new phone to sync with my Calender on my laptop, imac and iPhone. Can she use my icloud account?

Thanks

Ben

For calendar events and appointments and such, I recommend using Microsoft Exchange or Google directly to do so. As for transferring contacts, you can use a different AppleID on iTunes to keep things separate. Or if you want to do it manually, simply plug in your device to your computer, close out iTunes if it pops up, and open up iExplorer, click on the "Contacts" tab and it'll bring up your contacts in .csv files. Simply drag and drop them into a folder on your computer, unplug the iPhone 3G, plug in the 4S, and manually drag and drop the contacts back onto the phone in iTunes.
