Copy a Company Contact

The duplication of a Company Contact for a different person at the same Company should be possible ... I'd think - which the BB Tour's Help function does not address (only minor changes to an existing Company Contact individual would be required to create a separate Contact for a different individual at the same Company, ie., the new individual's name, a couple of  phone ext. # changes and a couple of e-mail address field changes ... all else is identical to the original Contact).
I searched here for the Subject text (got 0 results), then, took out 'Company' (this time I got 30 results), however, nothing jumped out at me as an appropriate answer.
Can what I'm trying to do be done?
Or, does everything have to be re-entered (or C & P'd) in(to) a new Contact form?
Thanks, FFF

Hello,
There is no function, on the BB, to copy an entire contact item to a new item, and then make modifications thereto. But, if you are synchronizing to a Desktop PIM (e.g., Outlook), then that's a simple matter indeed!
Good luck!

  • Automate the import of company contacts to new users in Office365

    Hey all,
    I'm looking to find a way to automate the way I import our internal company vcard contacts to a new users Outlook 2013 contact list. Right now, I'm having to save each individual vcard manually into the new users Outlook 2013 contact list. 
    What I would love to happen is when I create this new user in the O365 admin portal that this user will automatically have these company contacts included.
    Is this possible?

    My problem: I wanted to import my addresses out of the thunderbird addressbook into my iPod Touch
    Solution:
    You need mozilla thunderbird with an addressbook stuffed with your contacts, an addon called "MoreFunctionsForAddressBook" (Altavista, Google, msn etc. are your friends to find it), outlook express
    The steps
    Create a folder for your vcards
    Install MoreFunctionsForAddressBook as addon to your thunderbird
    Open your addressbook
    mark all your addresses, _*go to extras, export vcard and send them to the new folder*_
    Mark all the cards in the new folder, copy them by pulling them into the addresslist.
    Then you push the correct button in iTunes and it will do the rest ...

  • TS4020 Is there a way to copy or transfer contacts from one icloud account to another?

    My wife and I just upgraded from the 4S to the 5C, but apparently we were using the same icloud account, and now we need to separate them so that we can make changes and not have it affect the other phone.

    To migrate your wife's phone to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos whe wishes to keep to her camera roll (unless already there) by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If she only wants to migrate a copy of the contacts and not other data, go to Settings>iCloud on her phone, turn Contacts off, choose Keep on My iPhone, then scroll down and tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your phone won't be effected by this) and choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.
    If she wants to migrate a copy of all of the iCloud data to her new account, and is syncing notes with iCloud that she wishes to transfer to the new account, you will need to open each note and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.  Once you are both on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account if you need to.

    Click here and pick the option which best fits your situation. Rented movies can only be moved through the iPod and will not play on the new computer if any other method is used.

  • Content copier backup has contacts etc. but won't ...

    I have a problem with Content Copier backups from my E71 to my PC.
    1) I choose to backup everything.
    2) Backup proceeds, but says there was an error: on viewing logs there is nothing listed under "These items could not be backed up" heading. Backup log says contacts, messages, calender have all been backed up.
    3) On finishing backup my E71 is sometimes left with a semi-blank Home screen, and hung. Have to remove battery to get it working again.
    4) On trying to restore this backup, contacts, messages, notes, calendar aren't listed as being included in the backup.
    Installing the trial version of Noki shows that the backups DO indeed contain contact details. But presumably there's something in the backup file that makes Content Copier think that contact details aren't in fact there, or that they're corrupted.
    PC Suite 7.1.18.0
    E71 firmware version 100.07.76 and 200.21.118
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I don't think it's the phone.
    I've now tested using Content Copier to do backups on my laptop. This still had PC Suite 7.0.9.2 on it, and the backup completed without error, including "Settings" to backup phone-specific settings. I then upgraded PC Suite to 7.1.18.0 and now the backup fails if I have "Settings" selected.
    I've also tried completely uninstalling PC Suite and reinstalling 7.1.18.0 but I still get failed backups.
    PC Suite 7.0.9.2: backup works correctly, including "Settings"
    PC Suite 7.1.18.0: backup fails if "Settings" are selected to be backed up
    I've opened the backup files in Write, and both failed and completed backups contain Contacts data in VCARD format (which is presumably why Noki could see contact data), but the completed backups also have another 18Mbytes of binary data that are missing from the failed backup files (presumably the phone-specific settings stuff).
    It would be nice if Content Copier could allow me to extract the Contacts and Calendar data from a failed backup: the data is in there!
    I've been communicating all this with Nokia Europe Support, so hopefully this will be fixed soon.

  • How do I get a hard copy of my contacts?

    I need a hard copy of my contacts from my iPhone, which is on my PC in the iCloud. My phone froze up and I needed to call someone for airport pick up.  Panic attack

    You really have no access to the internet except for on the phone?
    Your contacts are here and you can manage>export to a .CSV file from there and run through Excel to print (or use anything that will make sense of the .csv file)

  • How to create a company contact entry

    As opposed to creating a private entry
    For example I want to create a company contact
    On the desktop version you click the company box
    IOS doesn't have that option

    Me too, exactly the same.
    I can't work out what's happening here.
    If I create a company record on OS X  and then it sync on my ipad it displays as a company record.
    Any ideas
    Thanks

  • I have a Samsung Convoy "dumb" phone, and I plan to keep it until Verizon forces me to some **** overpriced "smart" phone.  Since they migrated Backup Assistant to "the Cloud", I am unable to print a hard copy list of contacts. The web site just runs you

    I have a Samsung Convoy "dumb" phone, and I plan to keep it until Verizon forces me to some **** overpriced "smart" phone.  Since they migrated Backup Assistant to "the Cloud", I am unable to print a hard copy list of contacts. The web site just runs you around in circles, never getting to the answer of how to print out contacts.  I'm sure the marketing people and web creators just love this Frankenstein monster they have built, but for me and my phone, it's just a huge pain in the ***!  Do they plan to fix this, or just let us dinosaurs go away and die?

    there is a point : no workie
    how hard would it be to place my (or yours I am told) iPhone4S on a city block curb………..
    and just walk away.. .. ..

  • Can't Search Company Contacts on Exchange

    When I first set up my exchange account, I was able to search the company contacts without isssue (go to contacts>groups>search). However, lately, this has not been working. This was a useful feature and I would like to get it working again.
    I have done both hard and soft resets. However, still not working. Each search I do ends in the same result - a message indicating that the search failed.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have been having the exact same issues with my mail. Today I went into Mail > Preferences > Accounts
    Click on "Edit Server list" under the Outgoing Mail Server
    Click Advanced
    Change the Autentication type (mine was set as NTLM)
    By switching to "password" and using: exchange server/user name and my exchange password I got the outbound mail to work.
    Hope this helps

  • How to copyi all phone contacts to SIM card

    Hello, I'm using this really bad network on my blackberry and it's really hard getting any good data service off it. As you'd imagine I wanna change to a better network. I was hoping I could copy all my contacts (they're less than 150) onto the sim memory before changing SIM cards, any ideas how it's done on a blackberry q10 device?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello,
    Using the SIM as a method of contact list saving is not a good idea IMHO. The BB contact list is robust (multiple phone numbers per person) where the SIM address book is weak (one name and one number only). So, even if you accomplished it, you'd wind up with a mess -- John Smith on your BB has 3 phone numbers...once you use the SIM, he has 3 completely separate entries, one for each of those 3 numbers. Not good.
    So, the question comes, what is your actual desire here? Do you wish to migrate your contact data to a different device? Is that other device a BB or something else? Do you have your contacts "in the cloud", so that you can use that as the medium for transfer? Do you have your BB synchronizing with Outlook via LINK? If so, then that could be your method.
    More questions than answers, I fear...so we await your reply.
    Thanks and let us know!

  • Copy Indonesian Company Code

    Dear All,
    We would like to copy an Indonesian company code from SAP Company Code 0001.
    However, we realise that Country Version for Indonesia is not avaiable.
    Thus we could not localise the SAP Company Code 0001 as an Indonesian company code.
    We have 2 approaches to the above issue: -
    1) We have noted that Country Template is available for Indonesia.
    Thus is it feasible to copy the company code of Indonesian from the Country Template settings instead?
    2) If we are handling all the taxation and withholding issues outside SAP, can we copy any Local SAP Company Code 0001 to a new company code for our Indonesian company?
    We would like to seek for your expertise and advices especially for those whom have experience in implementing SAP for Indonesian companies, or having encountered similar issues when setting up company codes in SAP.
    We would really appreciate your advise in this area.
