iPhone will easily sync with your contacts in Outlook or Outlook Express. It is advisable that you ensure Outlook is the primary source of your contacts. You can either type them into Outlook on your PC or you can use the software and data cable provided with your current mobile phone to export them. If you have misplaced the PC suite CD-ROM, these are available for download or purchase from the manufacturer's website and data cables are available from the O2 shop

Music from your iTunes library will automatically be transferred. If your existing music is in another format, for example WMA (Windows Media), you will need to convert it into a file format that iTunes accepts in order to play it on your iPhone or iTunes.

iTunes supports most types of music files. For more information on exactly which formats are supported read the online documentation provided by Apple [link opens in a new window]
