iPhone Question

the_Grinch

Executive at my work has an iPhone that he synced with his home computer. Now he wants to add the contacts from his old Blackberry (from his work computer because it can't be something easy) to the iPhone without losing current contacts, music, mail, etc. Any programs you guys know of that are good that could do that? Free would be ideal, but paid is fine as long as I can get all the stuff off of it.

How does he have his contacts saved on both computers?

If I remember correctly the Blackberry desktop manager lets you export contacts to a neutral format IE CSV

I don't know how exactly he set anything up. All I know is he has contacts on the work computer that were from his blackberry (guessing he'd sync that at work) and now wants them on the iPhone. But doesn't want to lose the contacts already on the iPhone that was synced with a home machine. Basically, just being a pain in the butt. The company didn't vett the iPhones before going out and buying a bunch.

Why can't he export his home contacts, then import them to his work PC?

Am I the only one who hates when people are too lazy to look up something on their own?

It bugs me when people use their IT staff as a crutch (especially for personal computer use).

"Hey, I want to do <xyz>, can you look up how to do it for me? Learning technology is beneath me and all you're good for is fixing my crappy issues I don't care to solve on my own."

+ 1 , Know what you mean >_< . At my work it mostly NON-SOE devices that they are told wont work or is unsupported but get it anyway and then complain that its not compatible\working. "Drop everything and fix it now", Who cares if you are trying to resolve an issue impacting half the branches in the country..

Sorry bad day here.
lol.
