These tips and hints explain how to transfer data from your previous phone to your new phone.
• TRANSFERRING DATA FROM THE PREVIOUS PHONE
If your old phone has no PC Suite support, the only way to transfer data is by using the SIM card.
1 Transfer all the contact information (names and phone numbers) in the old phone to
the SIM card. For more information, refer to the user guide of the old phone.
2 Remove the SIM card and install it in your Nokia 6820i phone.
3 Select Menu > Contacts > Copy > From SIM card to phone > All to copy the
contacts to the new phone.
If your old phone has PC Suite support, you may be able to synchronize phonebook and
calendar data using the Nokia PC Sync feature of PC Suite.
If you no longer have the old phone, but you have synchronized it to a compatible PC at
some stage, you may still be able to move the phonebook and calendar data to your new
phone. Note that only the data that was saved in the old phone when you last synchronized
it with the PC can be moved to your 6820i phone. For more information, refer to the PC
Suite documentation.
1 Install the PC Suite version delivered with your 6820i phone or download from the
Nokia website.
Note: You have to uninstall the PC Suite version for the old phone before you
can install the new version.
2 Start Nokia PC Sync.
3 If you still have the old phone, connect it to the PC and synchronize the data from the
phone to the PC.
4 Connect your new phone to the PC and create the needed configurations that the Nokia
PC Sync asks you to do.
5 Start synchronization to move the old phone’s phonebook and calendar data from the
PC to the phone.
If your old phone has PC Suite support, you may be able to transfer data using the Nokia
Content Copier feature of PC Suite.
You can copy data directly from the old phone to the new phone. To be able to do this, you
must install Nokia PC Suite 5.8 or newer to your PC and transfer contents from your old
phone before you give it up. Note that the backups made with older PC Suite versions are
not compatible with Nokia PC Suite 5.8. Also note that only the data that was saved in the
old phone when you last transferred contents to the PC can be transferred. For more
information, refer to the PC Suite documentation.
