How to transfer contacts from MacBook Pro Retina to old MacBook Pro running 10.5.8?

How do I transfer my latest updated contacts from my MacBook Pro Retina running 10.9.1 which uses the cloud to my old Macbook Pro running 10.5.8 which is not in the cloud?

Thank you very much, Linc, for your suggestion.  I should have mentioned one other thing.  The reason I want to do this is that I use an old phone and, after I upgraded to Mavericks, Missing Sync no longer worked with my MacBook Pro Retina - so my address book in my phone is getting out of date.  Because my phone is old (it's a Palm Centro), they apparently will not likely update their software for this phone.  So I was thinking I could sync my phone with my old MacBook Pro running 10.5.8 if I could regularly get that old address book to mirror contacts in my new MacBook Pro.  You said I could open the contacts in the old MacBook by double-clicking the vCard file. But will that action put them into the old address book on the old Mac so that I could then sync the phone to it? I really need to overwrite the address book in the old Mac with the info that I am bringing over from the new MacBook.
I'd be grateful if you could tell me whether what I want to do is doable.  This old phone works perfectly well and I don't need a new phone with a data plan that I would pay for but never use.
Thanks!
Note - I accidentally indicated that my response solved my question.  I clicked the wrong box.  Linc is the one who solved the problem.

    Take the memory card out of the camera and insert it into a card reader then use Finder to copy the iomages over to a folder on the Mac desktop.
    Basically the exact same way you would do it on any make or model computer.

    You can export your contacts - go to the Contacts page at http://me.com, click the top contact to select it then shift-click the bottom one to select all. Click the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
    Now if your Galaxy allows importing of vCards you can import the file you just exported.

  • How to transfer contacts from LGENV2 (maybe with USB)?

    We recently purchased smart phones for our daughters.  They were very quick to get their phones out of the boxes and activate their phones.  Well, they hadn't backed up their contacts (or anything on their phones) before activating their new phones.  We now can't find a way to use Backup Assistant from the old phones (all are LGENV2s).  We do have the USB cable to connect the phones to our PC.  We'd appreciate any help.  Thanks.

    Thanks.  I paired them, and tried to send "namecard" (checked all the contacts), but the other device (iPhone 4s) isn't connecting.  Any ideas?

    You can actually use Bluetooth to transfer contacts! Just make sure they are paired together.

  • Asha 501 how to transfer contacts from Macbook

    Hi,
    did anybody find out about the best way to transfer contacts from MacBook's address book to the new Asha 501?
    I tried by bluetooth, however, whenever I try to open the Vcard with all my contacts only the first contacts starting with the letter "A" are copied.
    One work around would be to send my Vcard from the Mac by email to my phone and open the Vcard in my Asha 501. However, the Vcard with all my contacts is 4,6 MB big. I cannot open this attachement in my Asha 501. 
    Any tip appreciated. Thanks, J.

  • How to transfer files from an Android device to a MacBook Pro

    How do I transfer files from my Android to my MacBook Pro

    Short answer: download 'Airdroid' app onto your phone.
    The solution is in more detail below.
    Hope it helps
    Regards
    Tim
    There is a free Android App in PlayStore called, 'AirDroid'. I found the basic version brilliant and intend to buy the pro version in gratitude.
    Procedure
    Download the app, create an account and sign in.
    Airdroid will open on your phone with instructions to open http//web.airdroid.com on the Mac/pc. Here on this site, on your Mac, you can sign-in or more simply scan the displayed 'QR' symbol with your phone by pressing 'scan QR'. The page will then change to a file tree view of your phone.
    This will enable up/down loading of files/pics/videos, texting... view contact listings, remote find phone with gps, change lock codes, wipe phone....
