How to import Windows address book (.wab) into e71...

How do I import email address from my Windows Mail (or Outlook Express) into my Nokia e71?
I can save the addresses as .csv or .wab file, but what next?
Please note I am not trying to build my phone contact book. I already have all names and phone numbers in there. I need to import email addres from my PC email client (Windows Mail) into my Nokia email client (either the one inbuilt into e71 or the new email messaging that I downloaded from email.nokia.com).
Thanks.
- Gurdas

Me too (but 5800).
What's really annoying me is that I managed it when I got the phone but have since had to reset the phone, lost all contacts and now can't get them back.

How to import Tiger Address book data into Leopard?

How do I import the Address book data I had in Tiger, into Leopard. I backed up all my applications and the Application Support folder before I upgraded to Leopard but I can't find a way of importing the old data into the new program. I tried just copying the contents of the Address Book subfolder of Application Support but the new Leopard folder has completely different files in it....??
Thanks

How to Import Outlook Address Book into Mac Address Book?

I will be making an employment change and need to import my pc Outlook addresses into my mac email addresses. After repeated emails to Apple and apple support phone calles no one can help because I am not going from a mac to a mac. Unbelieveable. Actually it's not-the lack of customer services these days should not surprise me.
Anyway, anyone know how to do to save me having to re-type hundreds of addresses?
Thanx!

You need to export your Outlook contacts into a VCard format.
There are many programs out there that will do this for bulk jobs. But, you can do it for free if you are willing to do it manually.
Select each contact one at a time from Outlook. Then, go up to the menus (I think it's the file menu) and choose export, then choose to export it as a VCard.
I'm not in front of a PC. But, I remember doing it that way for about 80 something cards when I moved from my PC.
Once you have them in a VCard format, you can just drag and drop them into Apple's Address Book.
It takes some time to do it this way if you have a ton of contacts. But, it does work.
I think the PC format might be VCF but it is VCard.
Apple uses a different format of VCard than Microsoft does. So, you won't be able to use Microsoft's Export to export all the cards at one time.
That method will not allow you to import them into Apple's address book since they are different formats.
But, it will work if you export each individual record one at a time, and then drag each one into Apple's Address Book.
Additionally, if you find a web-mail service like GMail or Yahoo, or something like that that can synchronize with both the PC and the Mac, then you could try moving it to one of those services and then to Apple's address book.
For an automated system, check out:

You can also read Apple's document on the subject here:

Hope this helps.

How to import outlook address book to apple

How to import OUtlook 2010 address book to OS Mavericks?

I'm really struggling here - nothing is working...When I import my CSV file, I get the dialog box Text File Import. My contacts show up - 1 of 1745 is indicated in the bottom. I then map the correct fields to my CSV file. I then click OK, and nothing happens. The only way to close this dialog box is to click Cancel.
I also tried ABFiller and this does not work. I followed the instructions, and after selecting my PST file, and click Begin to import contacts, nothing happens.
Any other thoughts out there?
Thanks!!

How to move old address book (XP) into new computer (8.1) as the existing default address book.

I have exported the address book in LDIF format and have also found the abook.mab file in my old XP computer. My new W8.1 address book is totally empty. I don't know where to find the Profile folder on W8.1 and when I import the LDIF it creates a new address book folder which I don't want. I just want everything in the default address book.

Open the newly created address book. Click on one contact to select it. Hit control+a to select them all. Drag and drop them on the personal Address Book folder to move them there.

How to add an address book field into a Numbers spreadsheet?

In Pages, I can add an address book field so I can drag & drop a contact from my address book into the actual document without having to type out the address, city, state, zip etc.
Is this possible in Numbers? I use spreadsheets to create invoices and I really miss the drag and drop features that I have gotten used to in Pages.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
It seems that all the same Functions are available for calculations in a table within Pages as in Numbers. Perhaps you could keep working in Pages and do your invoice calculations there.
Highlight the table cell into which you want to place a calculation and select Insert - Function from the Command Menu.

Import Leopard address book data into Tiger

Is there any way to do this?

The Leopard address book database is not readable on Tiger. You can export vCards and import them in another version of the application as long as the formats are compatible. This won't preserve group memberships though.

It is annoying.
One more time a thread archived to be searched in the database contains an odd response.
In: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1290285&tstart=0
the last message states:
There is no answer to this problem other than this feature is not available (yet) for Numbers.
Which is perfectly wrong.
Reading the page 178 of the PDF Users guide, everybody may check that we may easily build this kind of table:

My long practice of Apple make me think that this guess doesn't match the reality.
In fact I know the process.
The original poster is informed that the thread is selected to enter the database.
He is also informed that he may post a late message before the thread is really closed.
In some cases, the OP posted an odd message and the moderators don't take care of that.
It's annoying but I hope that they will do the needed cleaning.

New contacts don't import to Windows Address Book groups

I'm using Windows Address Book(WAB) as my contacts list on my laptop when I sync with the iPhone. I use WAB because it uses Groups and iPhone accepts it.
Today I was browsing through one of my groups on the iPhone and added a new contact, while I was still in the group (Business). I just synced my iPhone and the contact didn't download onto my laptop! Its still on my iPhone and it shows up both in "Business" as well as "All Contacts", but its nowhere to be found on my computer after the sync.
The first time I synced the iPhone, it was with my everyday settings: under Info -> Contacts -> All Contacts is checked.
I tried syncing a second time; however, instead of checking "All Contacts", I selected each group individually such that I'm syncing all my contacts. And this time it worked! I was able to import the new contact into WAB.
Weird! Any ideas why it would sync properly with method 2 but not with method 1?

BigT,
Contacts created on the iPhone should sync back to WAB using either method (using all contacts or selected groups). One feature that using "selected groups" provides is it lets you specify what group to sync contacts created on the iPhone back into in WAB.
If you notice this happening again, you may want to reset your Sync History. To reset sync history:
1. Open iTunes.
2. On the Edit menu, click Preferences.
3. Click the iPhone tab.
4. Click the Reset Sync History button.
Hope this helps,
Jennifer B.

Import the address book from entourage to .mail?

Does anyone know how to import the address book from entourage?
I have had major problems with entourage - and I have decided to use .mail.
I have managed to get the email accounts transfered, but I can't figure out how to get the address book.
This is about 15 years of acquiring address, so, it would be a major thing to manually do this, not to mention that I can't find an address book in .mail
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
AWebdancer

Thanks - I moved the addresses, it wouldn't let me move the groups, but at least I have the major addresses.
One thing that would make .mail better is to be able to do a search on it for an old email that you now need. I hope that comes out with the new osx software.
Thank you so much Alberto.

Can I import my address book into Adobe Send?

How do I import my address book into Adobe Send?

Hi propacific,
There is no way to port your address book into Adobe Send, but if you use Send through Adobe Reader, you can access your local address book. And, if you're on Windows, you can use the Outlook plug-in for Adobe Send so you can send directly from Outlook. You can download the plug-in from here: Send Large Files Online - Share, Control, Track & Manage | Adobe Send
