[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nyyxzks:
Well, here is the solution, which is working flawless.

I am pretty sure that this solution applies not only for Nokia to Tytn II but for almost all windows mobile devices.

Moving contacts/calendar/sms/notes/etc from Nokia to WM6.5 without Outlook

This solution is to import contacts to windows mobile without requiring MS Outlook. I used this solution to move my contacts list and calendar only, but you can use it for other info types to migrate.

Some of the PIM Backup info is taken from Manish’s Blog site, so the credit for that part goes to Manish.

I attached 2 temp files as .CSV examples for you ladies and gents to see the real structure of those files. (PIMBackup-HTC-Temp.csv and PCSuite-Nokia-Temp.csv)

Here are the steps:

A-	For Calendar, SMS, Notes, etc migration, use the following 3 steps until step 4;

1.	Create a backup of your sms list, which is a .nbu file for me, as I have a Nokia. Name it SMS-Nokia.nbu

2.	Install ABC Amber NBU Converter v1.03 on your PC, a freeware tool converting .nbu to a .csv file.

3.	Convert SMS-Nokia.nbu to SMS-Nokia.csv using ABC Amber NBU Converter v1.03

B-	For Contacts list migration, use the following 3 steps until step 4;

1.	Run Nokia PC Suite on your PC and click on Contacts from the list.

2.	Select all your contacts (eighter from menu or press ctrl+a) then click File->Export

3.	Name the backup file as Contacts-Nokia.csv.

C-	Steps continue from here for both parts A and B.

4.	Install PIM Backup, which is a freeware tool to do backup/restore on your windows mobile easily with several features.

Download the zip file from this link and unzip the .exe file. Copy it on your windows mobile phone, double click on the .exe and it’s ready to work.

5.	(Check step 11) Save your updated contacts in plain text file in .CSV format (Regular Windows Address book allows you to do this). Call this file as Contacts-Final.csv. (If you followed step 11, it is the merged .csv, if not it is Contacts-Nokia.csv.)

6.	Rename the file from Contacts-Final.csv to Contacts-Final.csc. This is a very important step to make sure that contacts get imported to your Windows Mobile.

7.	Zip the file Contacts-Final.csc and create Contacts-Final.zip from it.

8.	Rename the zip file Contacts-Final.zip to Contacts-Final.pib. Again, renaming is very critical for importing the contacts.

9.	Copy this Contacts-Final.pib file to your windows mobile using ActiveSync. You may have errors during PIM restore if you do not use ActiveSync to transfer the file to your phone.

10.	Run PIM Backup on your windows mobile, select “Restore” option from the drop-down, and browse to the location of contacts.pib on your windows mobile. The PIM Backup will ask you to choose correct field delimiter (comma, semi-colon etc.) and once you do that, it will map all fields correctly (Name, Last name, Home Phone and so on) from the .pib file to contacts; press “Next” button of the PIM Backup and follow instructions there and it will have all your contacts imported successfully on your windows mobile!

11.	(Optional)

Create a backup of your contact list of your HTC using PIM Backup.

This is for those who like to mess with .csv files.

I did this to match columns of. csv files from both Nokia and HTC.

IMPORTANT: This is important when converting from pid to csv. PIM Backup creates a pib file which is a zip file, so extract the contacts csc file from pib when backup is done. Do not select binary backup on the options dialog if you want to have a csc file.

•	Name your backup as Contacts-HTC.pib

•	Rename Contacts-HTC.pib as Contacts-HTC.zip

•	Extract contacts_date.csc from zip file. (there will be only contacts.csc file, assuming that you only select contacts list from the PIM Backup menu)

•	Rename contacts_date.csc to Contacts-HTC.csv

•	Now you can mess with both .csv files from Nokia and HTC.

•	To continue migration, name the merged/edited/messed .csv file as Contacts-Final.csv and jump to step 5.

“UNKNOWN” label bug solution:

There is a know bug after restoring .pib file, which is all contacts appear as “Unknown” in your contacts list. To prevent that happening OR if that happened, please do the following steps. These steps require some excel knowledge. For those who are not familiar with excel, I will try to explain this as simple as possible;

•	Open Contacts-Final.csv with excel.

•	Add a column named “File As” before column “First Name”

•	Put a space in one cell of “Middle Name” column and copy it to the whole “Middle Name” column.(this is for placing a space between names, if you want only first name to appear, skip this step.)

•	Go to the first cell of “File As” column and type this formula

=CONCATENATE(D2;E2;F2)

Where D2 is first cell of “First Name”, E2 is for “Middle Name” and F2 is for “Last Name”.

•	After applying the formula, you will see “First Name”, “Middle Name” and “Last Name” in that cell.

Example ( html table code didnt work so instead of a table i will type it);

First Name = Darth

Middle Name = space

Last name = Maul

File As = Darth Maul

•	Save your file as .csv again. To make sure there are no errors, open your .csv file with Notepad or Wordpad again. If the format is like PIMBackup-HTC-Temp.csv, all is fine.

•	When using PIM Backup restore, map “File As” to Name field.

•	Go ahead and pimp your Kaiser.
