is it possible to import my contacts into my ical?

This is NOT what we (most of us) want to do ... We want to have the information from our contact(s) automatically be available in the calendar event. If we "invite" the contact, they get to see and are asked to respond (accept / decline / maybe) ... NOT always something we want. For example, I am going to an event and I want to remember their face (what they look like - maybe I've only met them once awhile ago), their spouses name, children or business profile / items and I don't want them to know I have made this one of my agenda items for the event. If I entered all this including their profile picture in contacts, I certainly don't want to enter it all again AND BTW, iCal doesn't really have the proper fields for this information anyway. Sure I can use the notes section but this is double entry. As you can see from just this one example, I would not want to invite them to this calendar entry. I can think of many other instances where that would be problematical (to say the leasat) as well.
It is really incomprehansible that contact, iCal and even mail does not have at least this level of integration.

Importing Shared Contacts into the Global Address List (Outlook 2013)

A colleague of mine has made a contact list which is going to be shared with other colleagues to increase productivity.
His question is, if it's possible to import the contact list into the Global Address List after it has been shared?
The contact list does not appear in my Global Address List, instead it appears in the People section (next to Calender).
If you need technical info about the office version etc., feel free to ask!
Thanks in advance.

SP-Brown,
You can import contacts into Active Directory, so that it can be included in GAL. There are some gotchas with that however. Maybe, a simple Outlook folder sharing is more convenient for you. You can share Outlook Contacts folders among collagues just the
same as Outlook Calendar sharing works. Start here:

With Exchange Public Folders you can achieve somewhat the same.
If you really want to mess with AD and the GAL, this is your article:

The ideal situation would be if the shared Contacts Folder shows up in the Offline GAL, but I'll try to fiddle around with it for a bit.
Is there also a possibilty that users can import a contact list so that appears in their Offline GAL?, I do think that it might be a hassle to keep the contacts updated....

Is it possible to import an XDP into Reader at Browser loadtime?

Is it possible to import an XDP into Reader at Browser loadtime?
Similar to loading an FDF on loadtime?
Or is there some code that I can put into Livecycle that will load a XDP from a web address once the PDF is loaded into Reader (Reader or Browser Plug-in version)?

An XDP cannot be read by Reader ...the XDP gets turned into a PDF (called rendering before Reader will open it). LiveCycle Forms will turn the XDP into a PDF in real time and will deliver it to the browser which will in turn luanch Reader and load the newly created PDF.
Make sense?

How to import a contact into an existing address book? contact is exported from outlook.

I have created 3 address books. I want to import new contacts into these address books selectively.
I tried importing a contact that was exported from Outlook as a v card. It worked fine except that it created the new contact as yet another new address book!

Importing contacts does create a new address book. Then just drag and drop the contacts into the book of your choice and delete the new book when it is empty.

How can I view my iCalendar on Google mail? Is it possible to import the iCalendar into the Google calendar? If so, how?

Is it possible to import the iCalendar into the Google calendar? If so, how?

You can certainly add your google calendar to your iPad: http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=151674
This will allow you to sync calendars back and forth between your iPad and Google.
However you cannot import already existing calendars on iPad into Google from the iPad itself.
You would need to:
Sync your iPad with a computer
And then use the computer to import your calendar to Google: http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=37118
If you are using a Mac I can tell you how to sync the calendars to the computer and then put them on google.
If you are using a Windows machine I would suggest you post your question in the iPad forum where the iPad experts reside: https://discussions.apple.com/community/ipad/using_ipad
Cheers.

Import multiple contacts into a group from an email message

I have received an email from which I wish to import the additional contacts into my address book.
I used to be able to drag/drop them into my address book all at once, but can't any more.
I have also tried drag/drop into a Numbers file to try to convert to a csv and then import, but it copied all the addresses into a single field and I couldn't get them to separate.
UGH. How can I import multiple contacts into a group in my address book from an email message?

That is a few too many to do one at a time.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Using O2M I imported my contacts into Address Book. However upon exiting the contacts are not saved. This is on a new Macbook Pro Lion OS. How does one save the newly imported contacts?

Using the program O2M I successfully imported emails from Outlook 2003 to Mail, and calendar events to iCal. However, repeated attempts to import contacts to Address Book have failed. The contacts appear to import, but when I close Address Book and reopen it, the contacts are gone. I tried File-Save, but Save is greyed out. This is a new Macbook Pro with the latest Lion OS. I wonder if O2M has not been updated to work with Lion. Or is there something I am overlooking in the import process?

Hi Denisej and others who have encountered the same problem,
I tried your work around. Unfortunately it did not work out for me because in my contacts there are an unknown number that still "refused" to be imported like that. When such a contact was in the group I selected for import the whole lot would be lost again after re-opening Address Book. Finally that meant that I had to import each contact one-by-one, each time with the need to close down Address Book. A job to go nuts and end up with a mouse injury. So I decided to use the Migration Assistant that Lion now offers
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3284404
together with Windows Migration Assitant on my old PC. Obviously both Mac and PC have to be on the same network. For this I did not need to do anything special. Both make use of the same router and that is apparently sufficient. When migrating the contacts Lion creates a new account, so you need to log in to that new account to see your migrated contacts. I used the Export Address Book Archive function in the Address Book menu to copy the lot to my own Apple account. I got rid of the new account and I was finally where I wanted to be in the first place.

How can I import iPhone contacts into Mac Address book

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and am in the process of trying to dump my Windows PC.
All of my important contacts are on my iPhone. How can I get those contacts into my Mac Address Book?
The same question goes for the music (ripped from CD) and my video files that are on my iPhone? The media is not that big of a deal because I can easily transfer it from my PC to my Mac but I assume I am not the only one in the world trying to do this and that Apple would make it very easy for MSFT Windows users to easily migrate to Macs.
I must be an idiot but I don't see any option in iTunes to transfer the data from my iPhone into iTunes and/or the Address Book.
Thanks

The iPhone's primary function is NOT a word processor or a spread sheet analyzer.
I didn't say, nor was I trying to imply ANYTHING of the sort. You should read what I provided again a little slower and in it's entirety, not taking this out of context, which you made into Apples and Oranges.
It IS an iPod, a device designed to store and play music (in addition to being a browser and a phone).
It is a phone, an iPod, and an internet device, which supports transferring iTunes content from iTunes on a single computer ONLY.
Making it difficult to transfer my legal music from my iPhone to my Mac does not make me want to go out and buy more Apple products or Apple software.
Good, then don't - no skin off my back. I couldn't care less if you want to remain a Windows sufferer. All this doesn't come from Apple. Much of it comes from those who OWN the distribution rights for content sold thru the iTunes Store.
All of Apple's commercials imply how easy the user experience is over Windows. Well, in this case, they missed the boat BIG TIME!
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but let me get this straight. You will likely need to transfer much more than just music from your Windows PC to your Mac and if so, how do you plan on accomplishing this? If you are transferring Word and Excel files, photos, and any other data, you won't be using an iPhone for this, so I don't see the big deal with transferring your iTunes library along with all other data being transferred.
I understand that the iPhone was not designed to be used as a backup. However, you allow the contacts to be merged in but not the music that I legally installed (but didn't purchase from the iTunes store).
I don't allow anything - this is a user to user help forum only.
As I provided in my first post in this thread - the sync process for contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks with an iPhone is bidirectional with the supported application on your computer. This is a sync process by definition of syncing - which is not the same for other data such as iTunes content and photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
Apple wants to make it difficult unless I purchased the music from iTunes.
No, Apple or really those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders for content sold thru the iTunes Store wants to make this difficult. Content sold thru the iTunes Store is set up by Apple to be a break even - which is included with the Apple stockholder's report. Apple makes their profit via sales of the iPod and iPhone. The bulk of the iTunes Store revenue goes to those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders for the content.
In addition, if my hard disk suffered a crash and I lost all my music it just seems stupid not to be able to pull it off my iPhone (yes, I know data should be backed up on a different drive, and mine is, but I am sure a lot of people do not back up their data).
Maintaining a backup of your data is important for this very reason, and for other reasons which is not Apple's responsibility. I believe iTunes includes an occasional warning message to backup your iTunes library (which can be turned off), and iTunes includes an option to transfer content purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone - since the overwhelming majority of this content includes DRM protection required by those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders.
The iPhone was not designed as an external storage device or as a backup device - end of story. If someone chooses not to maintain a backup, they are playing Russian roulette with their data. Maintaining a backup is important regardless the platform, but even more so when running Windows with constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.

BPC 7.5 NW-Is it possible to import an appset into BPC7.5 NW from a 7.0 MS

Hi all,
Does anybody know if it is possible to import into a BPC 7.5 NW an appset created in BPC 7.0 MS?
Is it possible to do it between MS and NW?
Thank you very much in advance.
Kind regards,
Santiago

No, this is a complete different tool available for this specific purpose. You need to get in touch with your local SAP EPM team for more details. This tool is not available to everyone. SAP conducts training and certification on this tool and only the certified consultants get the access to this tool.

Is it possible to import simulink blocks into labview

Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to import the MATLAB/simulink blocks into labview.
thanks,
Baran.

Hi Baran,
There is no way to directly import any of the programing blocks from The MathWorks, Inc. Simulink® software into LabVIEW.
However if you wanted to use your own code that you programed using The MathWorks, Inc. Simulink® environment in LabVIEW, we do have the NI Simulation Interface Toolkit which you can use.

Is it Possible to Import RoboHelp 2002R2 Into RoboHelp 8?

I have been using RoboHelp 2002R2 for Awhile. Is it possible to import the 2002R2 help projects into The current versions of RoboHelp?

Hi Anthony and welcome to the RH community.
Do you have a the source files, output files or both. If you have the source files, you could try opening the project in RH8. Take a backup first though just in case. That is a very old version you have there but you should be OK. This would be my preferred option. If you have the output, you could try creating a new project in RH8 and importing it. I'm assuming here that the output is not web based (e.g. a CHM). The final option would be decompile the output (e.g. a CHM) and import the individual HTM files.

Having problems importing .pst contacts into TB

I have outlook 2013 and I'm moving to TB. I have successfully imported the .pst email message to TB. However, I have not been able to import the contacts folder/file.
Suggestions?

Make Outlook default email client.
In Thunderbird
* Tools > Import
* select 'Address books' click on next
* select 'Outlook' click on next
* you may need to map the columns.
If this is not working:
Use Outlook to export the contacts as a comma separated .csv file.
Then import the .csv file.
In Thunderbird
* Tools > Import
* select 'Address books' click on next
* select 'Text file(LDIF, .tab, .csv, .txt)' and click on Next.
* you may need to map the columns.
AS an aid the link below tells you what column headers are used, so you can save the .csv file and edit using eg: Excel.
This is not absolutely necesary, but can make importing a bit easier if you have the same column headers with correct info.
