Add multiple contacts to Backup Assistant online

Is it possible to import more than one contact vcard at one time. I want to add several contacts and doing it one at a time is tedious.
Thanks

Hi Granny! If you're still working on this project, then I can offer some advice! Yes, you should be able to import all of your contacts en masse, and I can tell you how! First I need to know what program are you importing from, and what program you are trying to export to. Can you help me with that?

Just broke my phone and i need to get the contacts off it, and last i checked i had backup assistant that should have been saving them. where online do i find them once i log into my verizon account?

I'm terribly sorry to hear about your device, zealot1312. I want to ensure that you're able to review your contact list. I have provided the "How To Use Backup Assistant Guide" here; http://vz.to/1lQod67 . Step 5 will provide steps to print contact information.

Where is the Backup Assistant online?

I am looking for where I can access the Backup Assistant online - not in the cloud, not using the cellphone.

RJONEZ,
You've reached the right place for assistance with being able to view your contacts online. If you follow the link http://vz.to/1vOL3RM it will take you through the steps on how you can back up and save everything. Under step 5 there is a link that shows you how to view the contacts online. You would have to be signed into your My Verizon account before clicking on the link so that it directs you to the right place. I certainly hope this helps. Keep us posted.

Accessing Backup Assistant online

I am having difficulty access Backup Assistant online with my computer..I am trying to manage My Contacts..exactly what procedure do I use with the pc to access My Contacts in Backup Assistant...all previous attempts have led me to a page with instructions on how to download Assistant on iPhones, Blackberry's, etc and will not let me continue... I know they are having issues with Backup Assistant as I am typing this, 8:19 AM, CST, 3-10-2012.
Your input in the matter would be greatly appreciated.. as it is now, Backup Assistant is completely useless to me..
Thanks in advance,
Larry Woller

I have figured out a way to use the SD card and my computer to save and download/upload contacts, pictures, etc without using Backup Assistant.. I am also told by Verizon that there are issues with Backup Assistant as I type, 1:44 PM, CST, 3-10-2012, which is why I am having difficulty access Backup Assistant online with the computer...have things under control, no assistance needed at this time..
Everyone have a wonderful weekend,
Larry

How can I add multiple contacts to a text message on a droid bionic

How can I add multiple contacts to a text message on a droid bionic?

DH
I was thinking that if he wanted to create multiple keyframes he might be creating a repeated effect rather than manipulating values that are shot specific - like creating an oscillation or some repeated step effect. If he was creating keyframes specific to his content he'd probably not look for a way to do it "quickly" since each keyframe would require manipulation of specific values.
So my thought was to generate the series of keyframes on a dummy clip created for this specific purpose, copy the clip, paste attributes (maybe turn off "Scale Attribute Times") and add bunches of keyframes at once.
Still, you're right, it's tough to divine the intent of someone very new to FCP. His question could be based on a misunderstanding about the use of keyframes.

Is there way to view backup assistant online?

Someone on my plan dropped her phone in water and I guess it's really messed up. She also was dropping Verizon to go to another company and pay the bill themselves. Anyways is there a way to access backup assistant thru my account so I can print out the #s that were on that phone. So then they don't have to ask everyone all over again?

You (or she) would need to log in with HER phone number to access her backed up contacts. Once logged in with her phone number, go to My Verizon, My Device, Backup Contacts. When you are on the screen with her contacts listed (hopefully they are there), follow the steps given in this post:

Importing contacts into Backup Assistant

VZW told me the only way to import contacts from an old phone is via the Backup Assistant. (I was with another carrier). I have my contacts on my PC in vcf or csv form. I can adapt the csv file to suit any specific format that VSW would have. Not too difficult with a spreadsheet.
I havent found any way to import multiple contacts in a single file, except manually one by one in .vcf format.
When I try to import just two contacts in vcf, they come out mixed up in BA.
I also tried to use the specific VZW BA csv format by exporting as a csv file one of the contacts I imported individually: I opened the exported csv file, which had one contact, duplicated that contact with a small difference in the last name, and tried to import it again. I got the usual warning:
We need complete information to save each imported contact as a new Backup Assistant contact. Please complete all the required fields First Name, Last Name or Company Name, Phone Number or Email Address for the following rows: 2 & 3. All your other contacts will be imported.
Please anybody, let me know if there is a way to import a number of contacts, even if there is a limitation on the number I can do in one import operation. That will always be better than importing hundreds of contacts one by one.

I think that was the error - exporting only ONE - try to export your current contact list. Look at the structure of the csv that gets exported, especially the field delimiters (probably commas) and record separators - this could be line breaks, carriage returns, periods - and this is critical to BA beign able to distinguish one contact record from another.
Once you know the structure and how it separates each record (contact), then you can add the data from your other import list, making sure it follows the same rules; if it uses something else to separate the records, then you'll need to do a search an dreplace for those characters so the structure matches.
Also, the number of fields needs to be the same for each record; if the field is blank then something needs to be put in, like a space, so the right information gets put in the right fields.
Hope this all makes sense....post back with any further questions.

How do I restore phone contacts from Backup Assistant backups?

Something caused my contacts to revert to an older version. I not able to find how to restore them from an earlier Backup Assistant backup.

I'm super sorry to hear about your contacts, dave658! I'm commited to doing all I can to ensure that you're able to restore your contacts. The best option would be to view your contacts online at vzw.com and follow the instructions below:
1. Sign in to My Verizon.
2. Locate the I Want To... section.
3. Click More Actions.
4. In the MESSAGING column, select Manage My Contacts. The Backup Assistant Plus: Contacts page displays.
5. Click Sync to Phone. A confirmation message displays.
6. Click OK.
Let me know if this helps. Have a great day! ^CM

Kin ONEm: uploading contacts from backup assistant?

back when the Kin was a full social networking phone with access to a "cloud", you could add all your contacts by exporting them into a spreadsheet from the backup assistant, and then use your microsoft live account to get them into the phone (or somethign to that effect). but now that the kin is just a feature phone, it appears you can't any more.
does anyone know how to upload contacts? I think now we have to do them all manually, which stinks. but I'd like to know if there is a way before I do all that work!

I've been using Bitpim with my Voyager since I bought the phone 21 months ago. It works well. I like it because I can backup my calendar, memos, and photos as well as my contacts. I never tried backup assistant so not sure it can backup up everything with it, or just the contacts. I've been searching to see if there's any talk of an update with BitPim for the Kin yet but haven't found anything. I have to wait till Jan 7th to buy the Kin TwoM when my renewal is due, so haven't been able to try Bitpim with the Kin yet, but I doubt it will work until they update Bitpim. I don't think it's a big deal if I have to manually update my contacts on the Kin, but It's a bummer if I can't transfer all of my calendar info to the Kin since I use the Calendar CONSTANTLY. It's not a deterrant for me not to get the Kin though, because I really want the WIFI with no dataplan. I find I use my Itouch with WiFi (no 3G) often to get onto the internet.
I will try the Bitpim after going back home...hopefully it works...

Backup Assistant Online Access

I installed Backup Assistant on my wife's phone. The app says that her numbers were backed up. I want to use the online assistant and link this to her Gmail account. After logging into my Verizon account, I select her phone and click on Backup Assistant. That gets me to a screen with directions on installing the app on the phone. When I select "Continue," I get ...
Oops! Make sure you've downloaded Backup Assistant to device . You can only view contacts for the number that is currently signed in. If you're trying to access Backup Assistant for other lines on your account, please sign off and sign in with that number.
I am signed in with the correct phone and it is installed. Please help!

After logging into my Verizon account, I select her phone and click on Backup Assistant. This is where the error is happening - you need to set up a separate account for EACH phone number. Log out of your account, close the browser, then reopen it and go to verizonwireless.com. If you are still logged in to your account, you'll need to clear your cookies and cache and get to the point where you can go to verizonwireless.com and NOT be logged in.
Then click REGISTER, and create an account for your WIFE's phone number, with a different username and password. Once that is done, and you are logged in with HER number, her contacts will be there.
HTH - let me know if you need any more help.

Where are all my contacts using Backup Assistant?

I am trying to back up all contacts on my IPhone 5. I updated using the backup assistant and do not have the entire list.
On ICloud they all appear to be there. I am just trying to have a backup if my phone broke.

Thanks for the additional info, Mpag! If I understand correctly, the contacts you have in Backup Assistant right now are not a match for what's on your phone. If that's accurate, then I recommend against attempting to synchronize with Backup Assistant out of concerns that the data that's online may override what you have on your device. Instead, use iCloud to backup what's on your device now, and THEN synchronize with Backup Assistant They should blend, bringing both your work and personal contacts into one place on your iPhone. Then, going forward, each backup with your choice (Backup Assistant or iCloud) should have an up-to-date version of your contacts list.
You can get details on iCloud at this link: https://www.icloud.com/

Contacts storage/backup assistant

So since the update was not working on my phone, I cleared some data on my phone, and I accidently hit contact storage. Well I have backup assistant but many of my contacts are still not there, and I am talking about people like my mom and dad, completely gone. No way of getting any back?

Try checking your back up assistant account online after logging into your Verizon wireless account and see if they are there. It is possible that your phone stopped backing up your
contacts and you didn't know (this happened to my sister). There was an issue with the phone itself & it had to be replaced. You may also want to download a back up to the back up such as Lookout. I use this as a back up and it hasn't failed me yet Hope this helps.
