Can you sync your address book only on iphone

crazyderk

Hi,

bit of a weird one, through my travels and jailbreaks and restores ive managed to mess up the settings on my iphone.

For instance if my iphone battery dies i'll lose the pictures in gallery
I also installed a testers version of 4.0 before it was officially released and now I cant download apps from the app store.

small things I know but annoying all the same.

So I restored my phone and was able to do the above without any issues but then when I apply my settings (set to a previous Iphone, add phone book, texts, calender dates, that sort of thing!) the above problems come back!

ive no issues starting a fresh, the only thing is my phone book is there a way of backing that up and then applying it without doing the above?

I know I can write it out but thats gonna take me ages!

some more info to help
its a 32gb 3gs with o2

Cheers

In iTunes > iPhone > Info check the Contact syncing box and it will sync to Address Book on your Macbook.
