  When asked Synchronize selected data with Google Sync? select Yes

Hope it will work for you!

It was fine with my C3 nokia phone.

Remind: in gmail contact you can import csv or vcard file. And moreover, you can also export to backup (or whatever) your contacts.

Works for me. 

But!

I notice that all syncing with GMail is always done using GPRS, never over Wifi.

To confirm, I removed GPRS settings and the phone can't sync any more. I tried every option but there just doesn't seem any way to sync over Wifi. Note: I can use all other options, browser, email, etc.

Hey Guys:

Got a c3 last week when my bb went if for repairs (I am a contractor and even with a otter box it got wet!! Go figure we live in the pacific northwest!!)

Anyways thank you to whoever posted this tip.  Sounds like it is working for everyone except me!!

Heres the deal:

-I have tried 3 times

-first time sync went to 71%

-2nd and 3rd time sync went to 92%

Suggestions??  

I am going to check out gmail some more.  Also watchtower or something (BB backup security software thing).  It sucks I lost 500+ business contracts but should have back in a week or so once rogers repairs.

Cheers,

Tristan in Whistler

The best method so far. I wasted 7 hours of trying to import 700+ contact from my Blackberry to C3 via my macbook. Only this method worked like a gem at the end. Thank you sooo much for saving my contacts!!!

Hi I am using a C7, have followed these settings but not working. I get a message saying "invalid host address". Any ideas?

Hi all, I have got a solution which works for my Nokia X2-01.

First you go to gmail and export your desired contacts in Vcard format. Remember don't export all the contacts at a time as sometimes it doesn't work properly.

Then you need to download vcardsplitter from this link http://vcardsplitter.codeplex.com/

Then split the vcard file that you downloaded earlier. then you will get all the contacts as individual vcards. then go to Nokia PC suits and export all the vcards. You will see that your contacts has been transferred to Nokia PC Suits. Simple isn't it?

Wow I think i love you

Contacts from blackberry to nokia x2-01 synced in all their beauty, thanks!

[ArushJasuja]

first u have to download all contacts in Vcard format, then using Vcard splitter http://vcardsplitter.codeplex.com/ separate them into different files and then synchronise them into your phone using nokia pc suite http://www.nokia.com/in-en/support/product/nokia-suite/?cid=ncomprod-fw-src-na-nokiayo_0x0-nokiasuit... . remember the Vcard splitter will not accept contacts with characters other than period(.) in Name
