How To Transfer Contacts To A New iPhone Using a SIM Card

This tutorial will guide you on how to transfer contacts to a new iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS from your old GSM phone using its SIM card.

1. Remove the SIM card from your iPhone and replace it with the SIM card from your old phone.
2. Your phone may need to reactivate. If so, connect to iTunes.
3. Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; Import SIM Contacts.
   
   
4. Remove your old SIM card from your new iPhone and reinstall your new SIM card.

Note that iPhone 4 (GSM model) uses a micro-SIM card; a regular SIM card will not fit. If you are using an iPhone 4 (CDMA model), you will need to use iTunes to transfer your information, as it doesn't have a SIM card.
