Ordered my iPhone 4S Friday and got it today ... I have spent the entire afternoon getting past the startup garbage on the iPhone, why I have to use an Apple login irks me beyond irritation. I was on the phone with Apple for hours got disconnected and they then were busy in TechSupport and got lucky and after turning the iPhone off a number of times was able to continue.
... I've had Macs for 20 years and this iPhone thing is very different ... can't access the HD or anything :-/
finally at 7 p.m. I'm trying to figure out how to use iDrive Lite ... I can see my contacts online ... but when I got to backup TO the iPhone all it does it take my contacts from Apple Mail which I never use and puts them in the iPhone.
I have 720 biz contacts on my BB. I need to be sure to take them off of the BB and put them somewhere else.
My BB Desktop Manager has not worked at all for 6 months after several uninstalls and reinstalls ... Eeeek ! So I got the iPhone with the idea that once I got this set up I would nevah have to go through this again .... but an entire day ! I have the BB file from when the Desktop Mgr did work, but can only use that with a working BB,
according to Sprint store.
Does anyone know of someplace I can backup the BB contacts online and be sure they don't erase my BB and put in gMail or Google contacts or something else, and STILL be able to load the contacts to iPHone?
I cannot activate my iPhone on Sprint until I am absolutely positive I get all of my contacts transferred first.
thanks so much !
