Adding contacts from computer

NJKen

I got a new Droid 2 Global and the techs couldn't import my phone list from my old phone due to a connection problem. I've been trying to add them from my computer (running Windows XP) and eventually found a way to do this. After adding a few numbers wirelessly and successfully (it showed the phone logo so I assume it was through Verizon wireless) I forgot where I found it and have been searching the Verizon wireless site and my computer for hours but can't find it again.

 

I can enter them manually from my old phone using the keyboard on the droid but I'd rather do it from the computer with a friendlier keyboard.

 

Anyone know where I can find that page to do the typing?

You can add contacts via Gmail or Verizon Backup Assistant.  If it was Verizon then it was probably Backup Assistant.  Logon to your Verizon account and go to My Services > Backup Assistant.

If your contacts are in Outlook you can export them to a cvf file, copy the file to your device and import them using the contacts app - menu - more - import/export.

You can add, delete, edit and print your contacts online and send the changes to your mobile phone via Backup Assistant. For details and instructions please visit the link below:
