how to backup contacts

[orangekid]

this is probably a pretty easy one, but how can I back up my contacts and info on to my computer if I dont want to buy outlook for my diamond? on AS it says I need to have outlook installed and my phone didnt come with it...

just use PIM Backup and save it to internal storage, if you want you could then save that file to your pc

you could always copy your PIM backup file to your PC

It wont let me copy any files from activesync (like "copy" is grayed out), and I can't access those files in disk mode, is there a way to copy that file from activesync that I don't know about or to somehow access that file?
