Hi,

After signing in on the phone, you will be able to sync contacts to and from Windows Live. Any time you add a contact to your phone, you can store it on Windows Live. Plus, any contacts imported from a SIM card are backed up too. You can manage contacts on Windows Live contacts from their PC at contacts.live.com.

Thanks for your contribution to the forums!

Are your contacts not at contacts.live.com where you can sync them with any 'phone that lets you set up a Hotmail account? (Certainly any Android 'phone or iPhone - or, worst case, any 'phone with a browser should let you view them.)

    Hi, I had this done and it was a piece of cake. But you're going to need an android phone, since it's the one with that capability.

    First, have your phone synced with your Outlook account. (If you don't have it, create one in the settings>accounts).

    Next, download Outlook apk from play store and sign in with your account.

    Finally, from your contacts' settings, import from Outlook and then export to SIM card.

    You should see all your contacts copied in your SIM..

    Why would you take away such an essential and basic feature? Please tell me you plan to include it in future updates. Having everything backed up online is all well and good as long as you have internet access but what happens if you don't? I always relied on my sim card to have all my contacts available anywhere and the fact that there is no way for me to update it now is simply terrible.
