How do I share a contact from Address Book via email?
I am trying to send email address details in a Mailing list from my Address Book to a colleague. I have tried going to Attachment option but doesn't include option to attach from Address Book. Also tried copying so that I can paste into the body of the email without success. How can I share these contact details please?
Thanks
What does your correspondent need or want?
One well established standard for exchanging contact information is the vCard which encapsulates many of the commonly used fields in a Contact entry.
If a vCard suits you and your correspondent, this add-on:
https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html
has a nifty feature for sending vCards as attachments. Then your correspondent can probably just add it to his address book. If you copy out single details, like name, address, email address phone no, then the other person has to insert each one into his address book by hand.
If you open the Mailing List in your Address Book, you can probably drag each item out into the body of a new email message. But that's more work than necessary for you and for the recipient, who will need to add each one manually to his address book.
With this add-on, you should be able to open the Mailing List by selecting it in the Address Book, then use ctrl+a to select all, then right-click and select "Send as vCard"; it will open a new message with all the selected Contacts attached.
Lists in general don't have a standard presentation, so a List in one email client is only rarely useful in another. If you both use Thunderbird, you could use this add-on to export the List to a .tha or .thm file which another Thunderbird user could import.

How do I delete multiple contacts from address book?
Hello,
I have been using Macs for well over a decade. As a result my Address Book has become crowded with a large number of contacts for people I don't know anymore, most of which are out of date anyways.
Is there a way to quickly delete multiple contacts? I think I have about 100 contacts to delete. Doing them all manually will take forever.
Thanks!I assume that this will work, but I thought my first suggestion would work so ....Log into iCloud.com on your computer. Click on contacts. Click on the settings icon in the lower left corner - then click on Select All - then click on Delete.

How can I get my contacts from Address book on my computer to iCloud?
I recently updated my IOS on my iPhone and my iPad and, of course, lost all my contacts. I've followed the directions for enabling iCloud; however, my contacts are not being sent to iCloud. I checked my Settings on my phone, Info in iTunes, and Accounts in Contacts. Anyone know how I might resolve this?

How do I share several contacts from one iCloud account to another?
How do I share several contacts from one iCloud account to another iCloud account?
Hi charlesfromlymington,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you would like to share a contact. Please use the information in the iOS 8 iPhone User Guide (page 139) for information on this process. When the recipient receives the contact, if iCloud Contacts are enabled, it will be added to their Contacts.
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Share a contact. Tap a contact, then tap Share Contact. See Share from apps on page 35.
Cheers,

Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly. Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync. Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.
Solutions?No, I never really found an easy solution. I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device. In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs. A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup. It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad. But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost. When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might. If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it. I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by. -
