Introduction
There are two ways to use the PC Companion application to transfer contacts from an old phone to yournew Xperia device from Sony:
Sync the contacts on the old phone to your Google account and then sync the Google account withyour new Xperia device. See Transferring contacts using PC Companion and your Google accounton page 3
Export the contacts from your old phone using the PC Companion application on a computer and thenimport them into your new Xperia device. See Transferring contacts using PC Companion withoutusing a Google account on page 9
Why use Google account?
A Google account lets you organise and access your contacts from any computer or mobile device. Aftersuccessfully uploading your contacts to your Google account you can access your contacts from yourXperia device, your computer via http://www.google.com/contacts, and from any device or serviceusing the same Google account. The data in the Google account is saved securely online. Also, anychanges made to a contact from any device connected to your Google account will be synced to theaccount and reflected on all other units.
Having a Google account is key to using a range of applications and services with your Android phone.
You need a Google account, for example, to use the Gmail application in your phone, to chat with friendsusing Google Hangout, to synchronise your phone calendar with your Google Calendar, and to downloadapplications and games, music, movies and books from Google Play.
If you have not yet set up a Google account, you can do so by selecting Settings>Account & Sync>Add account> Googleon your Xperia device. You can also register online at http://accounts.google.com/SignUp.
