How do I upload contacts from iPhone to Mac Address book

I recently purchased both an iPhone and MacBook Pro. I have all my contacts in my phone, and want to sync them with address book on the mac. But when I go to Address Book on the laptop to import, the iPhone is not listed under devices. How do I access/sync the contacts from my phone?

iTunes handles the sync. Post in the iPhone forums.

  • How do I move contacts from phone to Mac Address Book

    I just bought an iPhone 4 and they moved my contacts from my Blackberry to the iPhone OK.
    Now I want to move the contacts from the iPhone to my Mac Address Book.
    I'm afraid if I sync the phone with a blank Address Book it will erase the contacts on my phone.
    Please help me.
    THanks
    I'm soooooooo glad to get rid of my Crackberry

    Thank you for letting me know!
    Going to give it a go. Had a back up of all my clients files stupidly not my software as I have the originals disks. Just realised that amongst the software is ibiz and have lost al my accounting and billing files for the last 7 years want to cry so losing my contacts now will really tip me over the edge!
    Fingerscrossed this works!

  • I'm trying to import contacts from Outlook to mac address book. I've exported as a CSV but when i try to open with the Address book import tool, the file is greyed out and can't be imported

    I'm trying to import contacts from Outlook to Mac address book. I've exported as a CSV but when I try to open with the Address book import tool, the file is greyed out and can't be imported. Any ideas? 
    Thanks,

    If you can't get the exported .csv file to work you might consider using Migration Assistant: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2518, particular if you need to move more than just your contacts.  There is some granularity in the options on what to transfer but I'm not sure if you can choose to just your migrate contacts.

  • How can I transfer contacts from IPHone to Mac?,

    First of all, thanks to everyone who will help me.
    I syncronised many times my Iphone 3GS with Mac and everything was OK (apart that I found all the contacts twice or 3 times in Iphone).
    I backuped Iphone sometimes on the Mac and others on ICloud.
    Last time, I found that the adress book in Mac was almost completely empty (only 10 or so contacts, all the groups empty) but I have everything in the IPhone.
    How can I now get to transfer all the contacts from IPhone to Mac?
    Thanks again
    Anna

    Deleted the contacts from where?  The device? the computer? both?
    Use the backup of the computer to put them back if they have been deleted off the computer.  Once that is done, they can be synced to the iPhone.

  • How to import contacts from iPhone to Macbook Address Book...?

    Whenever I go under
    iTunes > Info > Sync Contacts
    It tries to import my empty contact list ON my mac to my iPhone, rather than import my iPhone contacts onto my Mac. How do I import my contacts into my address book?
    Please be specific, because from my previous research on how to do it.... it was a very vague explanation.
    Thank you!

    Without a unique contact in the macbook address book, it will delete all the contacts from the phone. You must have a unique contact in the macbook to trigger the merge response from iTunes when you go to sync. Also, make sure you take the time in iTunes preferences to put the checkmark where it says Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. That way you have complete control over the sync process.

  • How do I upload photos from iPhone to Mac using Photos

    I have photos on my iPhone that I wish to upload to my iMac and then share using Skype. How do I do that now that my iPhoto library has been converted to Photos?
    (1) I do not want to send my photos via iCloud
    (2) I do not want to copy any photos from my iMac to my iPhone.
    Why did this get so complicated? Why can't I drag and drop?
    OSX Yosemite 10.10.3

    See the instructions quoted below from Photos help https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht6c803201
    Import photos from a camera or iOS device
    Connect a camera, iPad, iPhone, or other iOS device to your computer with a USB cable.
    Make sure the camera or device is turned on and the camera is set to the correct mode for importing photos.For information on which mode to choose, see the instructions provided with your camera. If your camera has a “sleep” mode, make sure it’s disabled or set to a time increment long enough to allow your images to download.
    Open Photos (if it isn’t already open), then click Import in the toolbar.Note: The Import button only appears when a camera or storage device is connected.Photos displays all the photos and videos on the device. You can choose to import a selection of photos or all the new photos on the device.
    Do one of the following:
    Import all new photos: Click Import All New Photos.
    Import a selection of photos: Click the photos you want to import, then click Import Selected.
    If a message asks whether you want to delete or keep the photos on your camera after they’re imported, click Delete Items to remove the photos, or click Keep Items to keep them on the camera.Photos imports your photos. To cancel importing, click Stop Import.
    When all photos have been imported, disconnect the camera or device from your computer.
    Imported photos appear in the Last Import album in Albums view.
    If you have photos taken with a film camera, you can import them into Photos by converting them to digital files (using the Image Capture app and a home scanner). After importing the digital files into Photos, you can edit them and add them to albums and projects, just as you can any other digital photos. You can also use the Image Capture app to set Photos to open automatically whenever you connect your camera. For more information, open Image Capture in the Applications folder, then choose Help > Image Capture Help.
    Tip: You can change the date and time of scanned images in Photos; select the image and choose Image > Adjust Date and Time.

    How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?
    Hi,  Does anyone know how to do this without the need for me to upgrade to Lion on my MAcBook Pro and use the iCloud?
    I put all my contacts into my iPhone and I'd like them now on my MAcBook Pro.
    Thanks,

    Click on your iDevice on the sidebar of iTunes and then go to the info tab at the top. check the box shown here:
    This will put the contacts from an iDevice to the computer. You can then check the same box on the (let's say iPad) that doens't have any contacts and they will go from your comp to your iPad.

  • How do i import contacts from iPhone to address book?

    how do i import contacts from iphone to address book?

    Ok, I knew it was a long shot.  The merge prompt normally is only available when you first sync your device.  I'm not sure how things got out of sync in the first place, but you may have to manually delete the contacts from your phone that you don't want there at this point.  I would try adding a new contact on your phone followed by sync to confirm that it's picking up new contacts though.
    Unfortunately I need to go now, so if you're still having problems I suggest your start a new post in the forum to see if someone else can help.  Good luck!

  • How do i get contacts from iphone to merge with outlook contacts

    how do i get contacts from iphone to merge with outlook contacts

    If Outlook already has a munch of contacts, do I need to delete them all (all but 1 unique) to sync correctly?
    I have and iPhone ith up to date contacts, and I have outlook with some of the same contacts with older info. When I sync, outlook is OK, but I get a lot of copies of the same contact on my iPhone. Now I'm not entirely sure which are the up-to-date contacts and which aren't (and there's hundred of contacts to go through).
    ...For future reference, is there a way to to send the iPhone contacts to Outlook without adding crap to my phone? Amidst the sync process I noticed and option for conflicting files and choose the "always use phone" but still wound up with a contact mess of mixed old and new on the phone.
