After backing-up my contacts, is it possible to view them on my computer? (Not phone) If so ... How?
If you use the Verizon backup assistant, you can download you backup at www.verizonwireless.com/backupassistant, and then you can pull them all up, and also add, delete, or edit them, all right there. I was testing it on mine right now, but it seems to be taking a while to load right now.
Yes you can view your contacts online. Access the website at www.verizonwireless.com login with your user id or mobile number and password. Once logged in at the top of the page will is a red banner place cursor on My Service when the drop menu appear select back up assistance. If the application is on your device it will reflect with the contacts that you have saved on your device. If it shows the steps of the process then you will have to follow the steps on your device so that you are able to manage contact online.
Dang, went to back up my contacts and it backed up my husbands instead of mine....there was no choice as to which phone we wanted to back up and we have two phones. And, you can only backup ONE phone. Evidently it only backs up the main name/phone that is listed on the account. I'm the one that needs mine backed up. I have over 100 phone numbers and he has maybe 10 numbers. LOL
Try this. On the home screen do menu>settings>accounts and sync>backup assistant. It's in the middle of the screen when you get there. From there, you can turn the sync on or off, and how often it will sync, and it should do it for your phone directly. Then, you should be able to access your phone directly from your account on My Verizon.
bigbruno, I had high hopes this would work but it didn't. I followed your instructions but it synced my husbands phone numbers again....not mine. I would go to My Verizon & click on my phone number. Then at the bottom it says to learn more about backup assistance....that takes me directly to the back up of my husbands phone. My husband is the account owner....maybe the only way I can make this happen is to change the account owner to my name?
