Is it possible to export all my iPhone contacts to my iPad 2?

Question

Does anyone know of a way to export all my contacts from my iPhone straight into my iPad 2 without having to re-type all of them in?

Answer 1

• register for iCloud on source device (iPhone)
• enable iCloud syncing for Contacts
• wait about 10 minutes

• enable Contacts syncing
• wait a few minutes

Info about iCloud

Answer 2

I would advise to directly transfer iPhone contacts to your iPad without the using the iCloud or iTunes.

The last time I tried to transfer my old iPhone contacts to my new iPhone via iTunes sync, it wiped clean my old iPhone - not a pleasant experience.

Answer 3

You can sync data (bookmarks, contacts, photos, movies…) of your various apple products using itunes Sync.

After installing it to your computer, connect the iOS device to your computer using the included USB cable and select it in iTunes under Devices on the left-hand side.

Then set up which items are to be synced: Click the corresponding tabs in iTunes to specify which information you want synced between the iOS device and your computer. Sync your data.

If you don’t wanna go through all that trouble, you can use follow these step-by-step guides:

Sync from iPhone to your computer, then from the computer to the iPad.

When I got my iPhone I was also able to transfer all data and apps from an iPod touch backup to it. Maybe you can do something similar with the iPad and an iPhone backup.

Answer 5

In iTunes, click your phone's name > Information tab > tick the box to sync contacts and choose Windows Contacts, then do the same process for your iPad and sync.

Answer 6

You can always sync your contacts with iTunes to your computer and then to your iPad.

If you're looking for a PC/Mac-less experience of transferring your contacts over, try iDrive Lite (App Store link here). It can backup and restore your contacts between devices using a free account.

Answer 7

Assuming you use the same PC for your iPhone as your iPad and the iPhone has been synched... Open iTunes and plug your iPad into your PC. Click on "the name of your iPad" in "Devices" in the left sidebar. Under the "Info" tab at the top of the screen you'll find "Synch Contacts" Uncheck this if it's checked. Then check "Selected Groups" and then check "iphone." Click "Synch" at the bottom right of the screen. Your contacts should now load to your iPad.
Moreover, i share you a page of iPhone/iPad/iPod Transfer Backup Reviews. It includes the transferring of music, photos, videos, SMS, Contact ect. between iPod/iPhone/iPad and computer(PC or Mac).
Hopefully this works for you.

Answer 10

It's very simple.

1. Download any iPhone Contact App from the AppStore on your iPad with same apple ID , (I downloaded the App Groups on my Ipad)

2. import all your iPad contacts to that app

3. Download the same app on your iPhone (depending on your settings, this might happen automatically)

4. On your iPad contact app, there is an option to email your contacts. Send them via email from the iPad and open that mail on your iPhone.

5. The e-mail will have an attachment; open that attachment on iPhone and add it to the contact app on your iPhone.
