Apple iPhone and related items (cont.)

Anyone around to tell me how to get contact from existing iphone onto new iphone 4?

Trying to do it in itunes and mobile me, but all they seem to be interested in is outlook?
 
Thanks Crispy... We did exactly that and got so into what was going on I forgot my manners...

You came to my rescue once again x
 
now my ip4 is up and running I want to give my jailbroken iphone original to a friend

so I pressed Delete Everything...and now it is in a permanent cycle of rebooting between jailbreaky cydia's pineapple and the apple logo

Any ideas on how to get iTunes to recognise and restore it?

(It turns out I didnt have to jailbreak - could have got an unlock code from 02...)

Can you just not restore it?

Or sync from a backup then restore it?
 
* Turn the device completely off and disconnect it from cable/dock.
* Hold down the home button.
* While holding down the home button connect to a computer with a cable (easiest) or dock.
* Keep holding down the home button until you see a connect-to-iTunes screen You are now in recovery mode.

Then connect to the computer.
 
thanks sunray - that worked sort of..my jailbroken phone had a picture of steve jobs with a russian speech bubble for a bit..

but now it is back to the endless reboot cycle...no apple logo..just a pineapple

does anyone have any other ideas? many thanks

I've finished Angry Birds for now (another level coming soon) so what do people recommend to fill the gap in terms of brilliant yet simple and completely addictive games?

The "real" SimCity is available in the App Store. So are Money Island 1 and 2, they were on special offer abut a week ago; 59p each so I snapped them up!
 
I'm really enjoying the LJP..London Journey Planner app..basically a nifty front end for the tfl website thingy

it's cheap and works better for me than using the TFL website on my laptop, it seems to get regular updates and the dev listens to waht people want....he might be integrating borisbikes into the system soon which would be great (although there are plenty of standalone apps that do borisbikes it would be great to get it all in one app)

In fact it's becoming a theme for me - I enjoy using ip4 so much that I am firing up the laptop a LOT less

I noticed that since getting an iPhone something like 80% of all my Twitter and Facebook time is on it and not a computer...same for reading the news too...
