Syncing Contacts From Hotmail

[Atif_Azim]

Hey guys,

I just got my first Android phone, Sony Experia Z. I was wondering how i would be able to sync the phone contacts saved to my Hotmail account to my new phone? I used to have an iPhone before this one and before that, a Windows Phone. From my Windows Phone, it automatically saved my contacts to my Hotmail account and when i got my iPhone and added that account, it synced them back so i didn't manually have to add all my contacts again. How can i re-do this on my new phone?

Thanks a lot!
Atif

Do you have your iPhone with you? If so, the easiest method is inTouchApp: Just install the app on your iPhone and login - contacts will be backed up in minutes. Then install on your Sony Experia and login - contacts will come down to your device in minutes - thats it! In future, if you get any new device, just install the app and login to get your contacts - no fuss! Get the app from app stores or IntouchApp: Apps and Plugins

My iPhone has broken which is why i got this new one. Is there any other method? I tried going onto my iCloud but there is nothing there for some reason. I know it's definitely from my Hotmail contacts

You can install inTouchApp, create an account, export contacts from Hotmail into CSV or VCF and upload it at IntouchApp: Import Contacts and that will get your contacts into your device.
