Does any one know how to sort our contacts by Company then First/last name? Do we need a 3rd party program? There's no such setting under Settings>Phone>Sort By. It is so difficult for me to find my working contacts !!!

Basically, the contact will be sort through the last name and not first name. When you add more contact it will be sorted automatically alphabetically from A-Z and u can use ur hand to scroll the contact. I don't think that have any 3rd party program released yet for now.

Actually you can sort by first name.

Go to Settings, Phone, you'll see "Sort Order" and "Display Order". Set it to use first name.

Wrong Answer!!



Wrong Answer !!!!
Actually you can set a group for each contact.
So that they will show in a separate list at your iphone.

eg:
Work Contact Group-->contact list
Relative-->contact list
Girl Friend-->Contact list
Friend-->Contact list

so like this you got 4 contact group

OK, OK, but I want to be right also. It was not wrong what!

You're welcome!

How do we group them, eh?

well, i think the group thing might be the best choice so far. Actually when im using a pda wm6, they actually display the company name n person name together in the scroll list. So now, i hv dozen of mr.lim, mr.wong, mr.tan in my contact. Zzz...

any other way to organize the contact than using Outlook?

Address Book

meaning to say that we need to erase all the contacts from our iphone and create a new 1 using address book? can we just import the contacts to address book?

erk, 1st time i do the sync, i hve no contact in my winXP Address Book, then i sync it using iTunes...

try2 open my Address book (finally found + realized haha) all my contact oredi there xD

modified on the XP, then sync it again to my iPhone using iTunes... DONE! ok no problemo xD

BTW, nice tutorial SEP910

hi quick question regarding syncing the contacts from the Windows Address Book. I tried syncing my contacts with the Address Book, but noticed that the numbers / emails with custom labels are not synced in the vCard (which is expected since custom labels are more of a Mac thing).

Is there any workaround for this (PC user btw)? I have quite a few custom labels as I tag each and every one of my numbers with DiGi / Maxis / Celcom / Country labels (and some with the standard Home label).

It'd be great if we were able to at least sync it or back everything up somewhere.

erm, i think all the details sync from iPhone to address book no prob...

right-click on the name, select properties...

need a little help here...
my contacts are all in my sim...
any way i can get them into da iphone?

install SimPort. it will copy all sim contacts at once.

Is it possible to copy the contact list from the iphone to the sim card?

yeah i would like 2 know bout this too. and is there a way to see the memory left in the sim from the iphone?
