How do I import an Excel column of email addresses into Contacts?

I searched on this topic and just find old references to "Address Book" which i guess does not exist anymore.
I have an Excel worksheet of about 200 names, street addresses, and email addresses, one contact in each row. One column is the email addresses, which is all I want. If I could get the names too that would be nice.
I try the Contacts import command, but cannot import the section of the worksheet I want. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I highlight the contacts column in the worksheet and go to the file with the Contacts import command and find it is "dimmed" -- I cannot click on it.
Thanks for any tips.

Save the file as Comma Separated Vars (.csv).
Then import it into Contacts.
Make sure there are no commas inside each individual field.
Then, import the file using File>Import

  • How can I put a list of ten email addresses into one contact file?

    I have a lst of ten + people that I want to put into my address book under one disignated.
    Whjat is the easier way to accomplish that task?
    I do not see anything in the Menu bar that addresses this.
    Thanks.

    Doug,
    It sounds like you want to create a Group.
    Each of your 10 people should be entered with their own Card in Address Book.
    Then you'll create a Group which you'll then add the 10 contacts to.
    Once that's set up, in Mail you can enter the name of the Group in the To field to easily send a message to all group members.
    So rather than putting 10 email addresses into one Contact, you'll be putting 10 Contacts into 1 Group.

  • How can i paste a column of email addresses from an excel spreadsheet into a Mail message To: window

    In the past I have been able to send a group email by copying a column of email addresses from an Excel spreadsheet and pasting it into the To: window of an email message I had composed. I simply dragged my cursor down the column containing the email addresses, right-clicked Copy, put my cursor into the To: window of the email, and hit Paste. Mail recognized the list as a series of email addresses and I was able to hit Send and the email went on its way.
    Today I tried to do this and after I hit Send I got an error message. It appears to me that Mail did not recognize the list as a series of individual email addresses but saw them as one long address; the error message said it "did not appear to be a valid email address". Has something changed in Mail? I recently installed Mavericks!
    I can't be the only one who sends group emails this way. Are others experiencing this problem?

    Now Tony, I know you can't hear my tone on a forum post but I was not complaining, simply stating facts . This change brought several people in my office to a grinding halt in a long established workflow that is really rather simple (and I thought was already assumed from the original post above ):
    1) Select a set of records in FileMaker Pro 12 and export only their e-mail addresses as a CSV file.
    2) Open that CSV file in Excel.
    3) Copy the column of e-mail address.
    4) paste into the appropriate recipient field in Mail.
    5) Send
    If I were to complain it would be about Apple's typically opaque approach to updates. There is no granular explanation of why changes were made or even "what" changes were made.
    Complaining is futile since Apple is Apple and is unlikely to change, but sometimes it is cathartic to "shout into the void" .
    I had thought about doing something with a formula in Excel and your suggestion was simple and helpful. Again, however, it is only a workaround for a long established helpful behavior that Apple has inexplicably broken/removed in Mavericks Mail.
    I, and the other posters here, would love to have the capability back rather than have to add previously unneeded steps to our workflows.
    Ultimately we may add scripting steps to the FileMaker side to export the address lists with commas inserted already if Apple ends up having permanently removed this feature.

  • When I imported email addresses into TB, they landed in the nickname column and I can't manually change 1000 addresses!

    Is there a way I can change the nickname column to email addresses? If I try importing the address book again (I have it on a different flashdrive), I'm afraid I'll have 2 copies and things will get even more complicated.

    My guru said when he imported the addresses there was no opportunity to 'line up the data.' These addresses came from Outlook Express. Do you still think we should be able to line them up? I hate to delete what I now have (have redone maybe 10% of the 1500 addresses) and then wind up in the same fix. Thank you for your help!!!

    How could I import the photos I took in iPhone into Aperture 3?  I see nothing when I connect my iPhone to my Mac..
    iPhoto isn't working neither..

    I see nothing when I connect my iPhone to my Mac.
    Does your Mac not recognize the device? Or is the iPhone recognized, but the import panel does not show any images to import? Is your Photo Stream turned on?
    There is a known bug with PhotoStream and AP 3.2.1.
    Do you have the current Aperture version 3.2.2? If not, upgrade to 3.2.2.

    I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my  contacts  instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account.  How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app.  I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity).  I wish I could start over!!!  thanks.
    iPad

    I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts.  I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there.  When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies.  You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
    I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though.  Good luck!

    I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?

    If you abandon one of the Apple IDs you will also basically be abandoning any content that you have acquired with that Apple ID. Content can only be updated and re-downloaded with the Apple ID that was used to buy it. Apple will not combine the content of Apple IDs and Apple will not transfer the content from one Apple ID to another Apple ID.
