LOL, I was cleaning up a machine for an ole boy one day and I emptied the trash can. He started freakin out and when I asked him what was wrong he says, "I had several things in there I was keeping !"

Another good one, I went to work at a place that had a employee machine and one of the ole boys there was looking up plane tickets for a vacation he was gonna take. At the bottom of the screen were all the open windows he had going on, 21 of them most of them the same site and information. I could not get him to under stand that he could close one after looking at it, and only needed one of each open to compare prices ....

Where to save contacts: Phone, SIM, or Google Contacts?

It may depend on what phone you have (which manufacturer and what software version), but I'd start by opening my contacts app and looking for "manage contacts" in your settings. If you are lucky you may find something obvious like "move contacts" in there (my Samsung, running Android 13, has that).

(Back when this thread started it was often simplest to export the contacts to a vcard file and then re-import them to a different location, but things have come on a bit since then!)
Hadron, Thank you -- that was quick.

Yes I have a Samsung S21 and have 965 contacts in Phone and much less in the 4 google accounts (11, 23,12, 434 respectively). I am not counting Aol (yes hard to believe), Outlook, and 3 work/volunteer email accounts. I am trying to make things much simpler and also so that I can start synching everything.

I see the Move Contacts. Now I just have to figure out where I want the contacts though it looks like I have sync on for most of accounts - though not sure that I understand Sync contacts as they all do not have the same entries.
