Saving contacts and other info from iPhone

14 years ago

When I go into the office tomorrow, the paperwork for me to go out on a four week (or possibly longer) medical will be set in motion.

A few years ago my employer issued me a laptop and iPhone so that I can be on call 24/7. I don't know for a fact but I suspect they may ask for the iPhone and laptop back while I'm out. As such, I would like to copy as much of my personal info off the iPhone as possible before tomorrow morning.

Any suggestions?

Hi jodi in so calif,

I had to Google this, looks half decent, others may have thoughts too.

Synchronize the iPhone with Apple iTunes software on a computer to copy contacts information.

I followed the instructions but it calls for Outlook and I don't have it installed on my PC laptop.

I found instructions without having to use Outlook but I don't trust iTunes to download without messing with the current contents of my phone.

I use the iTunes extensively at the office (5,000 songs, hundreds of photos and some videos) but have never used it at home on my PC. I'm afraid if I use Sync, it will override my phone with the contents of my home iTunes setup which contains nothing.

Buying iPhone from Apple Store or Provider Store?
Q

I bought my iPod and iPhone from my local Apple Store. I have been in many times to ask questions and they are very happy to answer them. The Apple stores have several free workshops where you can learn all about the phone. When I buy my next computer it is going to be an Apple in large part because I can drive 10 minutes and ask questions about my new computer, not have to talk to someone across the globe! Ginny

This post is about locating furniture before purchasing and is a good example of the new media (internet and social media) fails to interact with a manufacturers existing channels of sales reps and retailers. I have noticed the larger the manufacturer is, the more likely this becomes a issue. So many manufacturers sales reps who been around for decades and have yet to embrace or even use the internet, thus creating a large communication gap between retailers and manufacturers. Nikkikling, your not the first to run into this situation with manufacturers and definitely wont be the last, sorry to say.

Modern Aire and Eurostoves contact info?

Did you search on the Appliances Forum? I just did a search for you there, and the the thread with the contact for Modern Aire came right up. I've linked it below. As to Eurostoves, the contact is Trevor Lawson. I know that because his name repeatedly comes up on the Appliances Forum, and he has posted there too (using the name trevorlawson), sometimes very informatively, but unfortunately, occasionally not always that nicely. You should read those posts (again, do a search on the Appliances Forum for the name trevorlawson and/or Eurostoves). Here is a link that might be useful: Thread about Modernaire

The main goal of our App is to make sure no phone user ever loses their contacts again. We would like you to participate in a marketing video by simply sending us a video of yourself explaining what you love about the iPhone and why you believe itÃ¯Â¿Â½s better than all other phones. phonevideocasting@gmail.com
