How to import an adress list from NeoOffice (or Excel) to Adress Book

I have compiled an adress list using the spread sheet in NeoOffice (the Open Office port). I can export the list as text, but I can't make the text import in Adress Book work at all. This seems to be a bug in Adress Book?
Here are some test data, save as text using text edit:
lastname,firstname,street,mobile phone,zip,city,e-mail
etternavn,fornavn,adresse,mobiltelefon,postnummer,poststed,e-post
hemsen,testtest,snefjellveien 6,+4799665566,0023,oslo,[email protected]
jensen,testest,jordveien 7,+47-98798711,0110,oslo,[email protected]

Hi Kappy,
Not for me. Here is the same in tab delimited format:
"lastname" "firstname" "street" "mobile phone" "zip" "city" "e-mail"
"etternavn" "fornavn" "adresse" "mobiltelefon" "postnummer" "poststed" "e-post"
"hemsen" "testtest" "snefjellveien 6" "+4799665566" "0023" "oslo" "[email protected]"
"jensen" "testest" "jordveien 7" "+47-98798711" "0110" "oslo" "[email protected]"
"johansen" "testtest" "Posboks 3443 Viken" "22655454" "11555" "nordnes" "[email protected]"
Still does not import. Address Book opens the text file ok in both formats. Be sure to convert to text in the format-menu in TextEdit before you save.
Address Book shows the data in the file in the import dialog, but does not import it. It seems to semi hang. I can browse the data, but the OK (to import) button does not work. I can only cancel the operation.

  • How to import the Issues list from an Excel File in Project Server 2013

    Hi,
    I'm using Project Server 2013.
    A Project Manager has been playing with the Issues List, deleting some fields, creating new columns and modifying some columns name. The result of this is that I'm getting this error everytime the task

    What I'm trying to do is to create a new Project from the scratch, update the Issues List, not deleting or modifying columns, just creating new columns in order to match the names he (the Project Manager) put in his Issues List, then Export the list to Excel,
    and then create a datasheet view matching the Exported list, but here I don't know how to import the list (copy / paste or whatsoever it can be done...)
    Do you know how to do it, or do you know another/any method to solve this problem?
    Thank you in advance,
    José Espases

    Hi José,
    2 considerations: 
    The first one is that (as you experienced) one should not delete or rename any of the predefined columns in the risk/issue list. What you did is the right way, meaning keeping the native column as is and creating new ones based on the business needs. Finally
    you just need to create view with the appropriate fields.
    Then for importing risks from an Excel list, I can't test it right now, but you should have a datagrid view (MS Access type) allowing you pasting data from Excel.
    Hope this helps,

    The second icon on the upper row explains as a syncronisation with Outlook.
    Try to do it and later you should use the iClod manager from Apple and Sync Outlook to ìiClod and to any iPhone iPod and so on.

  • Can some please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates?  I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my Mac

    Can someone please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates?  I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my new Mac.  I ended up getting a bunch of duplicates. My old Mac has an older version of iPhoto while the new Mac has iPhoto '11.  Is that the cause of the problem?  Please advise.  Thanks.

    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

    There's no import needed. You just open it using the AIR SQL APIs. If this database file was created outside AIR, it's not necessarily compatible, though. There are SQLite features and extensions that aren't supported in AIR.

    how to import Contacts in iCloud from Exchange?

    This usually works:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (they will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  Use this to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from your exchange account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud.  (This will cause new contacts added to your phone to be added to the iCloud account.)
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and turn off contacts syncing with your exchange account (otherwise you will end up with duplicates on your phone).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from your exchange account back to your phone and to iCloud.

    If you don't have backups, theres really not much that can be done other than to have everyone you know send you their numbers/emails again.
    Also, backup your contacts twice from now on. Use iCloud and Lookout Mobile Security.
    Make regular iPhone backups to keep this from happening again.
