    Thumbs up newbie, while I've done lots of reading about all things to do with iPad2 setup

    My main curiosity after hours of reading, is trying to determine the most effective method for moving contacts from Outlook to the iPad2 and this topic offers many methods. I need to hear from some people who have done it and can tell me where the problems develop so that when I do it, it's problem-free. This is currently my #1 next step if I'm convinced about method. Knowing about 3 or 4 methods isn't enough. I am searching for person who is experienced and states with authority with my circumstances what method is best & problem-free.

    Open Outlook, select all your contacts, and export them as a vCard file. Now you have a backup, and you can be less paranoid about picking a guaranteed trouble free method; which I doubt anyone here would be willing to commit to.

    You can do pretty much the same thing with Calendars, only a .ics file.

    Many thanks, "twerppoet" for the safety tip which shows the best foresight and since I've sweat out many things PC-world with topics I thought were SO safe, this I recognize has its challenges, so you've saved me long hours of reading while I was attempting to
    reach a comfort level to proceed with most convincing method moved me. Always for Eco in the sweat department.
