Switching To E71 From Other Nokia? Use The Switch Application
Topics: E71 Applications, E71 Tips 4 comments
If your a new E71 user coming from a Nokia N95, N82, or any other Nokia S60 phone you can easily retrieve your Contacts, Bookmarks, Calendar Entries, Messages, Recent Calls, Notes, and much more over bluetooth. The application called Phone Switch is already installed on your E71 and makes this task painless.
You can also use this application to sync to Nokia devices if your constantly switching back and forth. Whenever I want to take my N82 out on the weekends I simply fire up Phone Switch and get everything in sync between both phones.
Here is the list of what Switch can sync...
Contacts
Bookmarks
Calendar Entries
Messages
Recent Calls
Notes
Images
Sound Clips
Video Clips
Active Notes
Tip: If you have an S40 phone this application should work for sending Contacts, Calendar Entries, and Notes, as noted by Rita from Symbian-Guru.com.

Make sure on the E71 you choose to Recieve from the E51. Give it another shot if you can.

Does anyone know how to transfer all my contacts from my Orange E650 Windows phone (which uses an Outlook-style address book) to my new Nokia E71? Thanks, Ian B

Does anyone know if you can sync notes or active notes from the E71 to a Mac?
