How do you transfer contacts from iphone to sim card?

Answer 1

As of version 3.0 of the iPhone OS there is an option under Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Import SIM Contacts.

Obviously you need the sim card in the iPhone to allow this to happen

Also be aware that if your iPhone is locked to a carrier, it will not let you import contacts from a different carrier's SIM card. (tested on iPhone 4, iOS 4.1)

Answer 2

this is for samsung blackjack, and blackberry phones-

samsung blackjack-

The way i did it, which was very tedious as i could only find how to save one contact at a time;

1. Go to contacts 2. find the contact you want to transfer 3. click on the "o.k" button 4. once the screen has come up with the contact's general info, 5. scroll to the number associated with heading 'Call Mobile' or 'Call Number' 6. once highlighted, click menu 7. select Save to SIM.

from here you have an option to change the contacts Name differently to that saved upon the phone. do what you will, then click done.

the Contact is now saving to your SIM, and a duplicate will soon appear in the contacts menu.

if you are going to delete the pre-existing contact saved to your phone, make sure you delete the contact with the little 'm' at the side of the screen, as that corresponds to the saved contact on the phone, not SIM.

hopefully you have the patience to save each contact, and that you found this walk through helpful.

blackberry-

just like the Samsung blackjack, it is quite tedious. but here it goes-

1.go to contacts in your phone

2.click trackball over contact you're saving on SIM card

3.when is shows "mobile:(***-***-****)" click the blackberry logo button, and a list will show. At the top of the new list there is an option saying "Copy to SIM Phone Book," click trackball over that option

4.the name and phone number of selected contact will show up again, you're not done just yet BE SURE you click the trackball and a list will pop up with the option "Save" click trackball over that save option and the contact will be added to your SIM Phone Book.

hope this helps!

You have to go to ur cell phone store and ask them to do it for you. If you fried your SIM card, like I did a few days ago, then you have to go to your cell phone store and get a new SIM card. Don't worry, not everything on your cell phone is saved on your SIM card. Your contact list is saved on your cell phone. So you don't have to ask everyone in your contact list for their numbers again. That would take a while if you don't every number memorized.
