How do I migrate my contacts

**dehness** · 08-10-2010, 01:33 AM

I recently updated to OS 4.0.1 and SSH'd my original AddressBook.sqlitedb file into the fresh install but my contacts don't show up in the phone. What am I missing?

see if windows ever backed them up
go to start - search - contacts - windows contacts hopefully they will be there. then when you sync go to itunes and click on sync contacts

Nah, not there..

I saved the database file through SSH and I have a backup of entire iPhone that I can extract the contacts database from but I can't seem to get the new OS to read them...

I managed to figure it out... seems there is two seperate folders that hold contacts and I only added the database to one of them, on finding the path and adding the database file to the second location and restarting the phone, the contacts appeared... yay!

Thanks guys.
