Export Address Book to Outlook?

What's the best way to export my OS X Address Book to my secretary's PC, where she runs Outlook?

I don't have Outlook in front of me. Are you able to use that machine for a brief amount of time? Find out how it imports contacts. Address Book has built-in support for exporting contacts in the vCard format. You can export multiple contacts into one vCard, although Outlook might not support that, so you might have to export them one-by-one by dragging them out (from the Name column to the Desktop, for example). If Outlook only imports from a textfile format like csv, tab-delimited, or LDIF, check on http://www.versiontracker.com/ for an Address Book exporter utility.

Export Address Book to Outlook on a PC

I was wondering it there was a way to export an entire address book to Outlook on a PC. I have attempted to export "All" as a group Vcard, but only the first entry appears in Outlook. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

It's quite easy, all you need is a simple script.
1 - Select all your contacts, then go to File -> Export -> Export vCard.
2 - You'll get one vCard.
3 - But if you download that script (http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19361), and drag your vCard on the script, it will split this one vCard into one vCard for each of your contact....
Hope it will work

Export Address Book into Outlook

How do you export Address Book to use in Outlook?

You connect the iPhone to iTunes, select Outlook as to where you want to sync contacts, and calendar if you want, and then sync. The only thing you need to do is make sure if the Outlook on the computer is completely empty, put in a unique contact in Outlook to force the merge option to come up.

How can i sync mac address book w/ outlook for mac 2011

Is it possible to have the address book in Outlook for Mac 2011 sync w/ the Mac address book? I cleaned up my contacts in the Mac address book expecting the changes to show up in my outlook address book. Made over 200 changes that did not show up on the Outlook address book. Seems like there should be a way to make this work. If I add contacts from within Outlook, I'd like them to show up on all my devices. MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to this platform as I was a PC guy for the last 30 years.

I've got Outlook up and running just fine. Still have the problem with getting duplicate emails but I'm waiting on MS to get a fix for that in an update. Apparently that has been an ongoing issue. I've been in contact w/ a senior MS Outlook tech on that. I guess I'll just have to make sure that all contact adds/edits are done in Outlook. Then I can sync my phone or iPad and get the cloud to update the other Apple devices off that sync. Either that or figure out how to export from the Mac address book to the Outlook address book once in a while.

How to sync Address Book TO Outlook for Mac 2011

I am using the native Address Book from Mac OS 10.7.5 and need to keep using it because it syncs with my iPhone. However, I am using Outlook for Mac 2011 and want the contacts to synch from Mac Address Book to Outlook's contact list.
Synch services have been turned on in Outlook.
Originally, I was going to switch to Mac Mail but discovered that importing mail from Outlook is a headache (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2664208?start=0&tstart=0). Outlook works well and has for years so rather than going through a bunch of manual drag and dropping of folders to make mbox files, or buying software to do it, I thought getting the contacts to synch would suffice since that's all that's really needed.
What I discovered is that Outlook will feed new contacts to Mac Address Book when they are generated in Outlook but the Mac Address Book does not feed new contacts to Outlook if they were generated in Address Book. Is this even possible? If so, how?
Thanks,
Karen
I read this previous thread but it talks about contact info going FROM Outlook to Address Book instead of the other way around: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2664208?start=30&tstart=0

This information is correct for Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents.
It's also correct for Outlook if the Outlook Calendars where exported in the ics format.

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

• Address Book Exporter

Corrupted Address Book in Outlook Express

My father's note running XP, has suddenly decided that the address book in outlook express (ie6)is corrupt and it must be re-installed. I have looked around the web and this seems to be a fairly common problem, however the correction of
this seems fairly complex, surely Microsoft must have come up with a quick fix to this problem, especially as it seems of their making, what with faulty updates and the complexity of outlook and outlook express.
Please does anyone have a simple resolution to this problem, that we both can understand.
Thanks in advance to all those that take the time to reply.

Try to recover it manually. Or re-install your OE. Open Outlook Express from where the application is stored on your computer, then attempt to duplicate the error or problem you were previously experiencing. If
you are still experiencing problems, proceed with the following steps to reinstall Internet Explorer.
http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/microsoft/microsoft-aa/outlook-express/616-emails-and-address-book-are-gone
Go to the "Microsoft Support" website provided to you in the Sources section of this article, then scroll down to the section entitled "Method 2: Reinstall Internet Explorer."
Click on the appropriate link for Internet Explorer based on the version of Windows you are running. For example, if you have a 32-bit Windows Vista computer, you will be required to
download Internet Explorer 8 for Windows Vista.
Click on the "Download" box after you have been redirected to the appropriate Microsoft webpage for your version of Internet Explorer. A dialog box will then appear prompting
you to proceed with the download.
Launch Outlook Express from its location on your computer and try to duplicate the actions that previously caused errors. Outlook Express should now work successfully without presenting
any issues or errors.

Shared Address Books in Outlook 2010

Outlook 2010 Scenario:
I have a group of users that would like share an address book between 5 users.
(Users are all in the sales department.)
One user (Sales Rep A) created an address book and shared out the address book to the 4 users.
Sales Rep A has even given “editor” file permissions to the other users so they can update contact information and has verified that the contacts folder is marked as “Outlook address book”.
When you go click on “Address book” in Outlook – then the Tools menu – Options ….I don’t see any option to add the address book.
(No way to browse)
Although, the other 4 users can see it the address book on the navigation pane, but when you open a new message and click “TO”, they would like to see
it listed under the address book drop down list. (Where you normally would see the GAL listed).
Things I have tried:
Created sharing invitation for other 4 users in group.
Verified properties and made sure the check was in front of “show this folder as an email address book”.
I have created a new profile and still don’t see the address book listed.
One solution I thought of was Public folders, but I thought I read somewhere they were going way…is that true???
We are using a domain.
We are also using WinXP, Outlook 2010, and Exchange 2010.
Please also note we are also running Word 2007, Excel 2007, PPT 2007.

Look in the Addressing, if you go to Tools, you should see all the available address books and in what order that Outlook searches through them. You should be able to add the extra address book there.

Copy contacts from iPhone to Address Book in Outlook

Hi there,
I'm asking to see whether it's possible to copy contacts from an iPhone to the Address Book in Outlook, reason why I ask is that I am trying to help my Managing Director with his wife's Outlook issue as described in the following link http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-outlook/outlook-cont acts-wont-display-in-address-book/e7c919cd-3e68-4cab-9b21-4e0080827e21?tm=142262 7591302, if so please could you either instruct me on how to do this or to point me to some references on how to go about this.
Kind regards,
RocknRollTim

I have the same problem, sort of. When syncing iPhone with Windows Address Book, address entries that have more than one email address, get synced with only one email address. My only work around was to switch syncing address books from Windows Address Book to Outlook 2003. Now that iTunes 4 had messed up iPhone syncs with Outlook 2003's I've done one final sync with Windows Address Book, turn off the sync address feature in the sync window, and manually updated my address entries manually on the iPhone. I hope that Apple fixes this issue with Outlook 2003 soon, cause this is not why I shelled out $599 for a Treo upgrade!

How to export Address Book content as Unicode with applescript?

Hello,
I have a problem for exporting address book content. I'd like to export "My Card" to a vcf file and use another application to read it. So I have the following applescript:
*+tell application "Finder"+*
*+set theFolder to folder "TemporaryItems" of folder "Caches" of folder "Library" of home+*
*+end tell+*
*+tell application "Address Book"+*
*+set theVcard to (vcard of my card) as Unicode text+*
*+set theFile to (theFolder as text) & "myCard.vcf"+*
*+set theFileHandle to open for access theFile with write permission+*
*+-- write (ASCII character of 254) to theFileHandle+*
*+-- write (ASCII character of 255) to theFileHandle+*
*+write theVcard to theFileHandle+*
*+close access theFileHandle+*
*+end tell+*
OK, now the problem is that if "My Card" has any double-byte characters like Chinese or Arabic, the output file will just hold some question marks ("??"). The code works in Tiger but not Leopard. (Add char 254 and 255 just to make it a UTF16-BE file. So it doesn't really change the result of this script.)
I started digging and guess here is the reason: in the following statement the "vcard of my card" will always return plain text:
+*set theVcard to (vcard of my card) as Unicode text*+
I got this clue from the help of ScriptEditor:
+*vcard (text, r/o) : Person information in vCard format, this always returns a card in version 3.0 format.*+
But in Tiger, you can see:
+*vcard (Unicode text, r/o) : Person information in vCard format, this always returns a card in version 3.0 format.*+
Any workaround to solve this problem?
(And if this is not the right place to ask such question, please just let me know.)
Thanks a lot!
Calvin

Hello Calvin,
Since your code works under OSX10.4 and fails under OSX10.5, the cause would be the change made in AppleScript 2.0.
Try -
write theVcard as Unicode text to theFileHandle
instead of -
write theVcard to theFileHandle
The read/write commands in AS 2.0 have been change so that they will always interpret the text in system's primary encoding if 'as Unicode text' is not specified in commands' parameter.
