How do I transfer data from a BlackBerry Torch to a Priv?

[KMorganBbry]

why are you still running 6 on it? you can update it to 7 via the blackberry site or even the desktop app.

Thank you for asking. At the time I was trying to move contact information, the officially-recommended process started with downloading the Content Transfer app to my old device. However, my beloved Torch never completed the process. On about the fourth try I got a message saying that it did not work on that version. That led me to this forum to find out if any other early Priv users had the same issue.
In the end I paired my old and new phones via Bluetooth and moved the contacts that way. That left me with some merging to do between my old 'phone and my Google accounts but....better than the initial recommendations I got to enter them all manually.

Hi Lisa, I am in exactly same situation sadly leaving torch to priv and struggling to get advice on moving contacts so your message is great. Done the transfer by Bluetooth but cannot find it on priv? Help please. Mike

Hi Lise,
I am switching like you from my much loved blackberry curve with v.6 operating system. I followed your advice and successfully copied my contacts across to my new Priv using bluetooth, so thank you for that advice. I wonder if you managed to copy your calendar across though? I really don't want to lose all that information. Can you help please?
