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.)

    But, how about somehow I manage to break my Windows Phone and have to use my old Symbian phone. In such a case how do I use my contacts from the Symbian phone ?

    Export the contact from your Windows Live account. However, with the latest updates to Windows Phone (7.1.8773), you can export contacts to SIM.
