Step 3. Click the button of "Information" on top of the application

Step 4. Choose your targeted contacts location: Local, iCloud or Yahoo!

Step 5. After TunesGo loads the contacts, click on "Import" button, and choose the options from a drop down list:

• from VCard File
• from CSV File

(In this post, I’ll show you the contacts’ transferring process using the “from CSV File”. )

Usually, the steps you need to do for transferring contacts to iPhone 8/Xare finished. However, if you have an iTunes backup password, then you need to keep following the steps.

Step 6. Encrypt iPhone 8/Xcontacts backup.

You know that iTunes allows you to set up an iTunes backup password. If you set one for your iTunes, then you’ll have to take a few more actions than the usual activities. To do so, first of all, you’ll have to go to iTunes and then, check the box of “Encrypt iPhone 8/Xbackup”.

Step 7. Fill in your password.

In one of the previous actions where you had to click on the “Information” button, this time, a pop-up window with a blank box will appear on TunesGo. This is the box where you’ll have to drop the iTunes backup password first of all in order to load the backed up contacts.

So, use your set password and go ahead. If you don’t/can’t use the correct password, then TunesGo won’t be able to load your contacts.

Step 8. Import the contacts.

After inserting the correct password and hitting the “OK” button, another pop-up window will appear on TunesGo interface. Now, hit the “Browse” button and then, you could search for and select the import contacts on your PC. By clicking on the “Open” button, you could load the file.
