Importing .dbk contacts backup to X10 mini

Tue, 08 Jun 2010 23:55:52 GMT

From my late c702 I have a contacts backup (.dbk file) that I'd like to import to my Xperia mini. How do i do that?

Alternatively, I have a csv file that I could import. Can PC Companion do that? Editing contacts in Google contacts isn't too user friendly...

Hi Simenberg,

Importing the .CSV into Gmail or the Sony Ericsson Sync service, is going to be your best bet.

OK, thanks.

I thought I was safe with the backup file. In addition, I Sync'ed with my Outlook. And thought I was even safer. But it turns out that only a few of the phone numbers made it to Outlook.

New question:

If I'd like to use a SE phone to revive my .dbk backup file - which ones will do, in addition to the c702 (mine is dead)?

Hi there,

Sorry for the late reply.

Any newer non-smartphone device shouldn't have an issue restoring the backup. Although restoring to a different C702 would be best if possible
