ok stw boffins i have a question………
sold my iphone 4 to mazuma
backed up on itunes
need some contacts
CAN i access iphone contacts and transfer to my ipod ?

What sort of iPod? If its a Touch, then it shouldn’t be a problem as they’re both iOS; if it’s an older Pod, like a Nano or Classic, then I don’t think so, as their OS is Pico, and I don’t think you can transfer across the OS. I stand to be corrected on this, however, as it’s something I’ve never really looked into. 😀

yup ipod touch, around 4 years old, hmm will have to go try again, waiting for this proposed ne wiphone gonna be a long tedious wait being as im not the most patient human being, thanks for reply…… 😀

New iPhone in about a month, announced in seventeen days. It might do to double check on the Apple forums to be certain, but I’m pretty certain that contacts can be put onto a Touch, because you can iMessage and Skype with one over wifi. You might need to look for a contacts app in the app store.
This is all a bit conjectural, ‘cos I’ve never had to do it myself. 😀

Take a look at This guide, if you ignore the 1st step (as you have a backup already), you may still be able to export the contacts…
