Megan's Nokia N95 to iphone

The challenge is to set up my old iphone so Megan can try it out.

COPY DATA FROM NOKIA TO GOOGLE
A. Contacts worked direct from the phone.  See try 3 with link below.
B. Calendar - Worked with goosync.com

A  transfer the contacts from the N95 to google and then to the iphone

3. NOKIA GOOGLE THING - WORKED

2. GOOSYNC.COM - FAILED
goosync.com - Claims to sync Calender and Contacts (on the front page) for $20 about (web site is in GBP)
They have a 7 day free trial which I am  taking advatage of.

How much does the subscription cost?

Premium subscriptions start at £19.95 (Pound Sterling) for a 12 month subscription. It is also possible to purchase a 24 month subscription for the reduced cost of £29.95 (Pound Sterling) or a lifetime subscription for just £39.95.
A GooSync Lite subscription is £8.99 for a 12 month subscription.

Now the Calendar sync has worked.  Megans apointments are visible in her google calendar.  But the contacts did not sync?  Perhaps I am a lite user?

As a Lite user can I synchronise my Contacts?

GooSync and Google Contacts support is only available for users of the GooSync Premium account.
In order to upgrade please use the upgrade account button on the home page once you are logged into the website.

What are the differences between GooSync and Google Contacts synchronisation?

•Using GooSync offers a sync between your GooSync contacts and your device. Your contacts are securely stored in GooSync and you can view and modify your contacts using the GooSync Contacts manager. In addition you can sync categories.
•Using Google contacts offers a sync between your Google contacts and your device. Your contacts are stored in Google. In order to sync your Google contacts you must give permission to GooSync to access your Google contacts.

Perhaps I have not given permission to do the sync?
Went to goosync and found a way to grant access to google contacts.  The default is obviosly not sync'd

Re run the sync app on the N95
This time connected via our wifi.  Had to re enter the wep key.  I wonder if this is a 'feature' of the N95.
Did you know Megan has 928 contacts. 
Used Telstra and still get.
"System Error"
Changed profile to just sync contacts (& not the calendar).
It says success but the contacts do not show up in the google contacts.

1.  COPY TO SIM - FAILED - Sim too small
Open contacts>options>mark/unmark>mark all>copy>to sim directory. - No good. Sim not enough memory.

Extract Notes off iphone
It does not seem possible to copy all the notes off.  Only to email them off.  Bizzare.  Why is something so basic so hard?
If you jailbreak your iphone then you can use this

SSH
Several posts suggest that the only way to get the stuff on the iphone is to connect via ssh

http://www.sync-iphone.com/notes-2/sync-iphone-notes.html
suggests there is a way to do it with google.

my iphone firmware is 4.2.1 (8C148)
The above mentioned link suggests using a microsoft exchange connection type however this does not mention notes
somewhere else says oh gosh should have used gmail - > still no notes
