Q: How can I transfer the contacts I have stored on my iPhone to either my computer or to my SIM card?

I have been having issues with Siri taking over my phone and locking me out of accessing it. Temporarily I have fixed it by syncing it with iTunes, but I need to transfer the contacts I have store on the iPhone to either the SIM card installed or my laptop. I cannot find out how to do either, only imformation on how to import contacts onto the phone...

 

Please help, my head is already done in enough by feeling like Siri is trying to take over my life.... why do I feel like I am in iRobot!>!>!>!?!?!?!?

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1

    What do you mean by "Siri taking over my phone and locking me out of accessing it"?  Are you sure you don't have VoiceOver turned on?  With VoiceOver on a voice speaks the names of items that you touch on the screen, and you have to use different gestures to get around.  This may make it feel like you're "locked out" of your phone.

     

    To turn VoiceOver off you have to go to Settings>General>Accessibility>VoiceOver>Off.  With VoiceOver on you have to flick the screen with three fingers to scroll, and to activate an item on the screen you have to tap an item once to select it, then double-tap it to activate it.  You can also turn it off by connecting your phone to iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings, Click Configure Universal Access (under Options), then under Seeing select Neither.
