Anyway, if done wrong, you can lose all your contacts, so be careful and have a backup .csv file of your contacts incase you miss something.
I am Bumping this because Microsoft killed MyPhone. Boominsvx mentions the possibility of losing all your contacts. I know this is real from experience. Previously I was able to login to my MyPhone account on my computer and restore my contacts and calander events online, then resync using the MyPhone app. Scared the hell out of me the first time! I now need to do a sync using Outlook and Google. I don't know if it is just a matter of disabling MyPhone in its internal menu, or what? Ideally I would love to hear from Boominsvx(if he's still around) or Arrrghhh!, but any experienced advice is welcome. Thanks in advance. -V
