Hello!

Just upgraded my iphone 3gs from 4.x to 5.x and before I did that, i ssh it and saved some files which were under the mobile/library/addressbook. (a website was saying that was all I needed to save).

I didnt have a backup on pc, just for the info.

Now I ssh again and moved to files back into the same folder.

HOWEVER, it didnt work. No contacts were showing and I also noticed the extension of the 2 files i had previously saved had changed.

What am I doing wrong? Should i put those files in a different folder? Or should I put those files in a itunes folder maybe?

How do I get my contacts back on my iphone?

Thank you!
