Trasferring contacts from iPhone to Lumia 920

Trasferring contacts from iPhone to Lumia 920

I just bought new 920 and want to transfer my all iphone contacts.

There is nice application in my 920, "transfer my data".

So after getting bluetooths on from both phones I did use that app, and it told only contact information in available for transfer.

I did choose it and after running from 0% to 100% my 920 said "done".

Great! How easy!

 

Now when I go to my 920 phonebook, I cannot see any contacts?

Where it has transfered them?

 

I have disabled getting contact from facebook and hotmail because I really do not need all my 500 facebook "friends" information to my phone. They are not real frends and just mixing up my phonebook too much.

I had/have all needed information in my iphone contact list but cannot get them in 920.

Okay. After testing everything seems that my hotmail account = iphone contact list.

Why is this so?

Why my iphone contact list is named hotmail contact list?

Updating the Transfer my Data app might be the solution..

OKay I see.. You have setup your hotmail on the device .. Therefore, the contacts from your iPhone will be synchronized to your Hotmail.. that is the feature of the phone so that your contacts will be saved on your hotmail account.
