If you saved your contacts onto your computer just sync the contacts between your computer and your new phone.

If the two iPhones have the same iTunes account, you can use iCloud to transfer phone numbers from iPhone 2G to iPhone 3G.

There are three ways...

  1. iCloud (but the 3g does not support it)
  2. SIM Card (but both phones must be unlocked)
  3. email - Press the share button on each contact individually and Email it to youself. Then, open you Email on your new iPhone and dowload each contact on it.

If you have made backup for contacts for iPhone 4 by using iTunes or iCloud, you can use restore you new iPhone 3G from these backups, but they won't allow you to selectively export contacts from them. Therefore, you can use some tools like AnyTrans to transfer contacts from iPhone to iPhone or from iCloud backup.

you would just have to retype them into the contacts list or plug both phones on for charging into the computer and drag the contacts from one to the other

How do you transfer files from iPhone 3G to iPhone 4?

If you just recently got a new iPhone 4, connect it to iTunes and iTunes will identify it as a new phone. If you have previously synced your iPhone 3G with that computer before, then iTunes should give you the option to sync the new iPhone with a backup from your latest iPhone 3G sync. When you do that, your files from your 3G will be transferred to your iPhone 4. Hope that helps :)

Transfer palm data to iPhone 3G?

The best way is to transfer the Calendar and Contacts to Outlook. The iPhone can then be synced with Outlook. Unfortunately, tasks and memos do not transfer. You will need to find other 3rd party apps that are supported on the iPhone and transfer your data to them. Two examples are: 1. Evernote - This is good for memo. You can export your memos and then import them into Evernote. unfortunately, when I did this, it was a bit tricky. I even had to write a little PERL script to create the format that it wanted. 2. RemembertheMilk - this is a todo application
