Hi Johndoe7999,

In order to sync your contacts with Outlook, you will need to make a separate contact for each number. E.g John D home, John D Work, John D mobile. You could merge them afterwards in Outlook in order to transfer them into your new phone.

Hope this helps,

Hello John_Telsa,

thanks alot for your reply.

what i simply did, i just selected all my contacts in N8 and send thru bluetooth to my new samsung galaxy S2 and worked fine.

wow.

Now, what I've been trying to do all day you just solved in no time. I was trying to export stuff to outlook, windows contacts, csv files, some weird xml files with no luck. The last one actually gave me a full excel xml file with my whole database of ovi contacts which is quite useful yeah but not for this. Thank you sir, you just made my day ! What I've done was just a sad thing to do I guess .

Thanks again dude, the easiest solutions are the best .
