How to Export Address Book contacts as CSV file for Gmail?

Hi
I wish to export some of my Address Book contacts towards Gmail (which i use through the web interface for now) but I don't want to export vcards as i don't trust big brother Google with all the other data (snail mail, phone numbers, birthdays, etc).
I have tried to do the export through Address Book but found no CSV export option.
I've searched the forum for an answer, but to no avail. Some other (paying) websites claim to offer solutions but the "pay before you see" deters me from using them.
Any tip on how to do this would be greatly appreciated. Scripts and software also welcome, if shareware/freeware.
Cheers,
FMN

Thanks for your answer, but gmail's help specifically states one can import contacts in CSV format and i was looking for a simple batch solution.
Here is a link to the relevant gmail page (might be in French - am not a "Froguette" for nothing ;)) about importing:
<http://mail.google.com/support/bin/topic.py?topic=28647>
and the one about importing addresses as CSV files:
<http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=fr&answer=12119>)
So my question still stands.

How can I import address book contacts from 10.2 to 10.6?

I have an uncle who recently had a computer with 10.2 that crashed. I recovered all his files. His new computer is now at 10.5 or 6, and will not import old contacts from 10.2. Anyone know how I can import them?

Exporting vCards from Address Book partially preserves group information - it puts it in the notes field as Categories, which is not very useful. I suggest you export one group at a time. I don't think you can import directly into a group, so create a group, import the cards for that group, then select all the cards in the "Last Import" pseudo-group and drag them to the appropriate group.
If some of your contacts are in multiple groups the duplicates will be spotted on import. Unless you have hundreds of groups it should not be to much of a pain. Otherwise look at Gwenhiver.net - Applications - Address Book Exporter - it may preserve groups on re-import (but I don't know).

How can I import address book from thunderbird on another computer

I just purchased a new laptop and have dowloaded Thunderbird for my e-mail as that was what I was using on desktop. I have 2 e-mail accounts, my personal e-mail addresses came thru with no difficulty however my other account the contacts in address book didn't come thru. So question is how can I get address book imported for this account too. My desktop is Windows XP and my laptop is Windows 8
thanks for any help

The neat thing to do would be to copy the profile from the XP machine to the W8 machine. This would have transferred your messages, your account settings and your Address Book and much else.
Given that you have set up Thunderbird and have started using it, copying over the profile may not now be terribly attractive for you.
So, instead, you can export and import your Address Books.
On the XP computer, open the Address Book, select an address book (e.g. Personal Address Book), select '''Tools|Export''', select the name and location of a file to contain the exported data, choose LDIF and then Save. Repeat for each required address book. Give your LDIF files simple but meaningful names, such as PAB.ldif and CA.ldif. Don't use, for instance, ''Personal Address Book.ldif'', as this will create a second address book with the same name as one of the defaults and you won't be able to easily tell which is which.
Put the exported LDIF files where the W8 computer can see them, e.g. a USB memory stick.
On the W8 machine, open the address book, Tools|Import and select an exported LDIF file. It will import and create a new address book; you'll probably want to move the Contact data back to the usual address book. You can select all (ctrl+a) then drag-and-drop the imported Contacts to the preferred address book. Repeat for each LDIF file.
Having said that, I don't understand what you mean by "my personal e-mail addresses came thru with no difficulty however my other account the contacts in address book didn't come thru"; unless you have moved the profile folder over, I don't understand why ''any'' contacts should have transferred.
If you have in fact moved the profile folder, then I'm puzzled as to why the transfer of address books has been incomplete. However the export and import route should be able to reclaim the missing address book(s).

How can I import address books from Thunderbird to Mail?

I had to use Thunderbird for all my Mail, because I cannot import about 10 different e-mail address lists with a total of about 300
addresses (contacts) into the Mail application nor into the Contacts Application. Every other e-mail application, and every server
supports imports like this.
Apple appears to have no solution either. On Apple Support site for Mail and Contacts, it says "Support temporarily not available"
and said so for weeks. I tried to import into Contacts, using Thunderbird address book files converted to ..Idif format and Contacts
imported them import without any fuzz. The folders appeared in Contacts as sub-folder the same name I had in the export files.
After the import I quit both Mail and Contacts and restarted my MacbookAir, it runs on OS 10.8.5., Mail is version 6.6.
I opened up Mail and the new sub-folders were listed in its Address Book window, However when I clicked ao any of them, they
would not open. I opened the Contacts application, and the folders were still there but when I tried to open the they were empty.
Is there a way to import those addresses, so they will show up?

Thanks for trying to help but .mbox is used for mailboxes, not address lists (Contacts).
I understand that Apple Mail and Contacts use .csv files for their lists, and I was able to
import my first Contact List using that type of File, but then was only table to get the name
the content of one List imported.
Last thing I tried, I used my Webmail Server which can import all address books (Contacts) and
export them across all sorts of different e-mail applications (they list about 10 different types)
and yes, the only missing is Apple Mail.
Looks like I am stuck with having to use Thunderbird, because I Mail will not import my
Contacts.

How can i backup Address Book & iCal using TM?

How can i backup Address Book & iCal using TM?

just back up your whole computer and those things will be backed up along with everything else. Time Machine is not well suited for cherrypicking just a few things to back up and it's a bad idea anyway. if you insist on backing up just those two things back up homedirectory/library/application support/address book and homdirectory/library/calendars.

I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks author?

I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks Author?
I have tried converting the book to different files like, mobi, epub, pdf. By using an app on my iphone.
I still cannot add it to iBooks Author.
I'm stuck, Please help me!

Either use copy/paste and then format/style as desired, or take it to Pages or WORD and insert chapters - which may still require resettling.
If you're looking for a 1:1 port, with all styles and layout intact, you may be dissapointed, tho.

How can we export table data to a CSV file??

Hi,
I have the following requirement. Initially business agreed upon, exporting the table data to Excel file. But now, they would like to export the table data to a CSV file, which is not being supported by af:exportCollectionActionListener component.
Because, when i opened the exported CSV file, i can see the exported data sorrounded with HTML tags. Hence the issue.
Does someone has any solution for this ... Like, how can we export the table data to csv format. And it should work similar to exporting the data to excel sheet.
For youre reference here is the code which i have used to export the table data..
><f:facet name="menus">
><af:menu text="Menu" id="m1">
><af:commandMenuItem text="Print" id="cmi1">
><af:exportCollectionActionListener exportedId="t1"
>title="CommunicationDistributionList"
>filename="CommunicationDistributionList"
>type="excelHTML"/> ---- I tried with removing value for this attribute. With no value, it did not worked at all.
></af:commandMenuItem>
></af:menu>
></f:facet>
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran Konjeti

Hi Alex,
I have already visited that POST and it works only in 10g. Not in 11g.
I got the solution for this. The solution is :
Use the following code in jsff
==================
<af:commandButton text="Export Data" id="ctb1">><af:fileDownloadActionListener contentType="text/csv; charset=utf-8"
>filename="test.csv"
>method="#{pageFlowScope.pageFlowScopeDemoAppMB.test}"/>
></af:commandButton>
OR
<af:commandButton text="Export Data" id="ctb1">><af:fileDownloadActionListener contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel; charset=utf-8"
>filename="test.csv"
>method="#{pageFlowScope.pageFlowScopeDemoAppMB.test}"/>
></af:commandButton>
And place this code in ManagedBean
======================
> public void test(FacesContext facesContext, OutputStream outputStream) throws IOException {
> DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer)BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
>DCIteratorBinding itrBinding = (DCIteratorBinding)dcBindings.get("fetchDataIterator");
>tableRows = itrBinding.getAllRowsInRange();
preparaing column headers
>PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(outputStream);
>out.print(" ID");
>out.print(",");
>out.print("Name");
>out.print(",");
>out.print("Designation");
>out.print(",");
>out.print("Salary");
>out.println();
preparing column data
> for(Row row : tableRows){
>DCDataRow dataRow = (DCDataRow)row;
> DataLoaderDTO dto = (DataLoaderDTO)dataRow.getDataProvider();
>out.print(dto.getId());
>out.print(",");
>out.print(dto.getName());
>out.print(",");
>out.print(dto.getDesgntn());
>out.print(",");
>out.print(dto.getSalary());
>out.println();
>}
>out.flush();
>out.close();
> }
And do the following settings(*OPTIONAL*) for your browser - Only in case, if the file is being blocked by IE
==================================================================

This resolves implementation of exporting table data to CSV file in 11g.

How to export address book contacts to numbers sheet

I am looking for a way to export my address book contacts from a specific group to a Numbers spreadsheet. Can someone help me with that? I would think it should be a simple task, but I can't seem to find any help for that kind of an operation.
Thanks in advance for any help.

select the contacts
copy,
switch to Numbers
paste
You should also make sure, in System Preferences, that Numbers is allowed to access Contact information in the "Security & Privacy" panel:

How can i delete address book

i seem to have duplicate address books.how can i delete one of them?

Same as the other guy.
1. Identify which accounts have the contacts that you wish to delete.
2. Identify which account you want to house your contacts in
3. When you are sure that you have a backup file to import select All Contacts and delete all
You'll have to convert the .csv file to a vCard file, there are online converters available (Google for one) as Contacts does not support .csv.
If you use iCloud to propogate your contacts to iPhones etc you must house them in the iCloud account (on your Mac)
One more thing:
Export Address Book
How are you exporting, there are only 2 options (archive or export) neither of which produces a .csv file. Export provides a vCard file, you'll need to cvonvert it to .csv and then back to vCard after editing.
I would also (first job) Export a Contacts archive, just in case of errors along the line.

Exporting Address Book Contacts

Thanks!

How do I Export Address Book data?

Is there anyway to insert Address Book data into other (non-Apple) applications, e.g. Word?
I want to send out some letters and I would like each letter to have the recipiants address at the top of the letter. Even if I could export the data to Excel first would be OK but I only seem to be able to export vCards from Address Book and Excel (nor Word) can read them?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Yink,
you can use some third-party applications to export Address Book data as plain text files (e.g., csv) which you should then be able to import without any problems in Excel and the like.
Some options are:
• Export Addresses from Mail Scripts
http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/
• Address Book Exporter
http://www.gwenhiver.net/address-book-exporter.html
• Export Address Book
