Question: How do i transfer contacts from old nokia symbian phone to windows phone?

Also is there a way to sync sms from my old phone to windows phone?

Windows Phone is Nokia 710. My old Nokia Phone has bluetooth but it is refusing to connect to the new Windows Phone

Answer: 
There's a contact transfer app for Nokia Windows Phones. 

Easy route: watch the youtube video showing the contact transfer process at <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwZAWXyXYbU> .

Have the micro SIM in your Nokia 710 and turn it on. You must use the micro SIM that comes with your Nokia Lumia, aka the one that was in the box.

In the application list you should find "Contact Transfer". Follow the instructions and connect the two phones via Bluetooth. Your contact will move from the old device to the new one.
If you are using WP8, follow these steps:

1. Install the [Transfer My Data](http://windowsphone.com/s?appid=dc08943b-7b3d-4ee5-aa3c-30f1a826af02) app
2. Switch on Bluetooth on your old phone and ensure that it's visible to other devices.
3. Open the Transfer My Data app on your Windows phone, and now you can transfer contacts, text messages, pictures and music files.
