How can I transfer my Contacts from one partition to another

Hi. I want to transfer my contacts from Mountain Lion  on one partition, to Mountain lion on another.  I have a lot of junk on the first one which I did not wish to transfer to the new one. Thanks. David.

If you use an online syncing service for managing your contacts then you can simply clean up the contancts on one installation, and the changes should update on the second installation immediately. This will only work if you use iCloud, Gmail, or another service for storing your contacts.

  • How can I transfer my contacts from one group to another?

    I have recently discovered that most of my personal contacts have been synced with my work's MS Outlook. This brings two issues to me if I ever had to change jobs and hand over my laptop - 1) My personal contacts will be shared with an unauthorised audience, 2) If they delete my account I will never have access to my own personal contacts as well.
    I tried to see how I can transfer contacts from one group to another but I can't seem to get the hang of it. Can anyone help, please? All I need to do is associate the contacts that have been associated with my work's email account to one of my personal accounts.
    Thank you in advance!

  • How can I transfer my contacts from one iphone to another without iCloud?

    I have an iPhone 4S that has quit working properly. The wifi option is grayed out and it will not let me get online. It also has some other weird things going on. I've tried everythign to fix it, to no avail. Therefore rather than paying $200 for a (refurbished) replacement, I'm going back to my old 4.
    I was told by the AT&T guy not to restore to my new phone because there is a chance that this is software related and it will cause similar problems on my 4. How, then, do I transfer my contacts to my old 4? I can't do it via iCloud because I never set it up on my old phone and it is now inactivated (and can't use wifi).

    Your contacts should be on your computer.
    You should have been syncing them with your computer from day one.
    have you failed to do this?

    I want to start my own account separate from my parents. Can I transfer my music from one account to another? If so, how?
    Lisa,
    Just get copies of the song files and add them to your iTunes library.  With the exception of any DRM-protected files (purchased before mid-2009 and never upgraded) they will play fine, even though they are technically associated with the original account.

  • How can I transfer apps purchased from one AppleId to another due to breach of account?

    Due to a recent security breach not if my doing a user stole my apple id and needed to change appleid account.  Now as a result i've lost all purchased apps from the itune store. I would like to transfer apps from one apple id to another without incurring additional costs.  With sufficient information in direct contact with the store I should be able to transferable within the software or at very least with the itune store direct.  Perhaps this is a way of charging additional costs for same programs?
    Not a happy camper because of the theft in id but now to add insult to injury i'll have to repurchase the apps to properly sync with my devices.
    Any help would be appreciated

    You can't transfer iTunes content from one account to another. If someone had obtained access to your account credentials and you've had the account locked that should not affect the current authorizations on your computer, though it will prevent you from updating apps until you have resolved the issue. Rather than creating a new AppleID what you should do is regain control of your original Apple ID and have it reenabled with a new password, get, if possible, Apple to deauthorize all computers for your account (assuming you don't have 5 so can't do it yourself) then authorize your computers.

    How can I transfer my apps from one account to another

    Apple will not permit transfer of applications from one account to another. Suppose your mom has presented an iPad to you and before presenting she has downloaded some Apps with her account. If you want to update those Apps, you must know her pass word or send the iPad to her and request her to update and give back. If you feel it is time consuming and difficult, the best way is purchase new iPad and down load  the latest version of App. Whenever you come across you go on purchasing new iPad. This will help you to have latest version of iPad with you.

    How to I transfer appoointments, apps from one Ipohe to another?

    If you plug in your ipod and/or iphone to your new machine, they should show up in the left column in itunes.
    You can ctrl-click on the device there and choose "transfer purchases".  It should then copy the apps and other purchases from your device onto the new machine.

  • In contacts app how can I move a contact from one group to another group?

    I find I cannot move a contact from one group to another group. If I delete a contact from one group I delete that contact from my total contact population. I did not have this problem in earlier IOS versions. Can anyone help me?

    Thanks SO much, Barney.  How embarrassing, I could have sworn that I tried that first.
    I will definitely get them all moved over before I delete that account and I've already gone in & changed my preferences.  Several years ago, my husband I decided to share one calendar and one contacts list, using his mobile me account and it's been great for us.  I'm particularly thrilled to no longer serve as a human rolodex and I guess that I paniced a bit when I thought there might be a problem with our system.  I'm still confused where that "On my mac" account came from on the first place.  Do you suppose that was an automatic thing that came with the Mountain Lion upgrade?
    thanks again!

  • How can I transfer Firefox profile from One user to another on my pc (win XP)

    At work I'm using Firefox as my default browser.
    In my company the IT administrator installed new system s/w on companys main server and changed the user names.
    So now firefox lost all the information (profile) I already had on my pc.
    Now in "C:\Documents and Settings\" folder I have 2 users.
    One with the old user name and one with the new user name
    Also I can not any longer login in my pc with the old user name because the administrator has changed also the domain name.
    How can I transfer the profile I had (with lot's of usefull bookmarks etc) from the old user-name to the new user-name?
    Thank you in advance!

  • In contacts, how can I move a contact from one account to another?

    My husband and I have (happily) shared contacts for years and all of a sudden we realized that some contacts would show up on one of my devices, but not on his.  After looking at the issue more closely, we realized that I somehow now have (and do NOT want) an additional contacts account called "on my Mac" that has been inadvertently populated with 22 contacts.
    1)  How can I move those to our shared account?
             When that is complete,
    2)  How can I delete the account called "On my mac"?
    Thanks!

  • How can I transfer an iPhone from one computer to another?

    Hi all!
    So, I got my boyfriend an iPhone 4 last year and his computer was so outdated that he could not sync it with his computer.  We recently upgraded to Snow Leopard (no Lion for us yet) for both his and my computer and now he can sync his phone with his own computer.  Before, he could not back up his contacts in his address book, or his calendar, etc.  So anyway, when I plug in his phone to the computer, it recognizes it, but will not allow me to create a backup in his iTunes.  It will also not let me "assign" the phone to the computer.  Any suggestions?  Also, even if I do a complete restore, how can I add the stuff backed up to his iCloud once it's restored?  Any help would be great.  Thanks!

    Unless you moved the Domain file, that's its default location. Make sure you're looking in the Library folder in your Home folder rather than Macintosh HD. See also THIS recent post.

  • How can i transfer some fields from one table to another using a trigger

    hi,
    i have two tables;sales and accounts.i want in my accounts form to enter salesid which is then validated and if it exists in the sales table, some fields are copied to the accounts table automatically.how do i go about this.thanx

    hi,
    the code u gave me is not running.let me explain in
    detail.i have two tables;sales and accounts in my
    database (oracle 9i).each have a corresponding form
    in the developer window.these tables are linked using
    saleid.this id is entered and saved in the
    database.when the person is paying in the cash
    office,the saleid on an invoice form is entered on
    the accounts form.it is supposed to search the sales
    table and if the ids match,some records are extracted
    from the sales table to the accounts form instead of
    the accounts clerk entering the details all over
    again.these details will be used to generate a
    receipt an then the record on the accounts form is
    saved to the database.the contents of the two tables
    are:
    sales(saleid(pk),startno,endno,quantity,amount,saledat
    e)
    accounts(receiptno(pk),saleid,startno,endno,quantity,a
    mount).
    please advice and thanks very muchWhat does it mean "not running" ?
    Sure, it is running.
    Did you tested my example ?
    And it does exactly what you need.
    You didn't provided table structures and insert statements,
    that's why i showed you the method on 2 emp- tables.
    But it is exactly, what do you need.
    Change my emp_1 on your sales,
    and my emp_2 on your accounts,
    and compare the results.
    If you cannot directly copy and paste
    and say to your teacher / chief "My homework / task is ready"
    it doesn't mean, that the solution didn't provided ...
