How do you transfer contacts from iPhone to sim card?

lan0.sky0 posted on 09 Sep 2011, 08:50

I am planning on selling my iPhone 4 but most of my contacts are on the iPhone and not on the sim card. How do I transfer all of my contacts from my iPhone to my sim card?

I think you can't do it on a new iPhone. You have to put them on your itunes. But if your iPhone allows installing third party software (when you have done a so called 'Jailbreak'), you may download a piece of software called iSIM. This will allow you to batch copy all your phone numbers to the iPhone without the need for a PC or Mac.

iPhone does not have a way built in to transfer contacts to sim. It can taken them off a sim but not put them on.
I think the only way to do it is it the iPhone is jailbroken and you have a 3rd party program to do it.

I don't think that there is a way to do it using iTunes. You can give a try to some 3rd party tool to transfer or backup contacts like xilisoft contacts backup or may be this one:

Thanks for the ideas of transferring iPhone contacts.

To transfer videos from iPhone to computer, I prefer Leawo iTransfer.
