GuestI’m searching for a software to transfer contacts from Galaxy Note 7 to Outlook. Every contact I add on my Note 7 should be transferred to Outlook contacts section.
Can I go with one-way sync? I don’t need Outlook contacts to show up on my phone.Brian
GuestHi Dave,
Thank you for choosing AkrutoSync. This is Brian, one of the support representative of Akruto.
I apologize but Akruto syncs in both directions. Akruto does not have an option for you to choose which direction you would like it to sync.
If your phone has all of your Outlook contacts, calendars then you can export them and then import them to Outlook before clearing your phone of this data. One of the steps in the configuration was to clear the phone of data. The reason this step is there is primarily to prevent duplicates but also because AkrutoSync cannot sync your existing data from the phone to Outlook. This is because the existing data on the phone is saved under a different account like Google for example. Data cannot jump from one account to the other. You would have to export those contacts out of the phone and remove them from the phone. Then import the contacts into Outlook and AkrutoSync will sync them with your phone but now they will be saved under the Exchange account that was created for AkrutoSync. This will ensure the two way synchronization
Here is a link that may help with exporting data https://www.akruto.com/backup-phone-contacts-calendar/ Once you have the existing contacts imported in Outlook then you can start configure AkrutoSync so the information from Outlook will then sync back to your phone. After the initial sync, anything added, edited, deleted from your phone will now sync to Outlook and vice versa.
Regards,
