Import contacts to iPad

Hi, My sister wants an iPad and to transfer all her contacts details from a PC to the iPad. When she gets the iPad she can join iCloud and acquire an e-mail account then can she import the contact files from the PC to iCloud via the net if so, how so? Hope someone out there can advise.
Hopeful Nthusiast
N.B.  As soon as posted I could see this is an old chestnut so it looks to me as if my instinct to make a folder of VCF files on the PC and then import to iCloud on the net is possible, can someone affirm for me , by way of comfort!  Message was edited by: Nthusiast

connect the ipad to the computer running itunes
click on the ipad in devices in itunes on the computer
then click on the info tab
then choose that it should sync contacts

  • Importing Contacts to iPad Air2 from Thunderbird

    I have read all the tutorials I can find, and have tried to follow the directions, however, I am still unable to import my contact list from my current Mozilla Thunderbird mail.  I have not been able to save the list as a vCard nor as a cvs (or whatever the letters were) file format. This is my first experience with using an Apple product.

    Go to Settings then Mail, contacts, Calendar. Scroll down until you reach the Contacts section, you will then see an option to 'Import SIM Contacts'.

  • How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    Hello and thanks for the answer.
    I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
    Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Enter the following information in the fields:
    Server: google.com
    User Name: Enter your full Google email address
    Password: Your Google account password
    Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
    After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
    Additional Information
    Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
    If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

  • How do I import Contacts to my iPad?

    I have a Blackberry 9900 and lookingto go to an iPhone.
    I am told I can import contacts to a new phone, before getting the SIM - I am therefore testing this theory on my iPad Mini.
    I have done the backup from my Blackberry.  I've plugged in my iPad Mini and am in iTunes, but under My iPad, Info, I don't see the means in import Contacts.
    All I see is:
    Sync Contacts
    Your contacts are being synced with your iPad over the air.
    Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPad.
    I have turned off the Wifi update option but that doesn't change this.  So how do I enable it, then import from the Blackberry exported file?

    Sync both devices to the same computer or iCloud account.
    Or, tedious but works way, 'share' them off one device by e-mailing them to yourself, open that mail on your iPad, and then save them to your contacts from there

  • How do I transfer Hotmail contacts to iPad as a pop3 account

    I hope you can help. I just got my ipad. I want to use my Hotmail account on my ipad. I spent several hours the first day figuring the right settings. When I delete messages from the iPad, I don't want the messages to be deleted from my computer. And vice versa.  When I delete from the computer I don't want them deleted from the iPad.  In order to do this, I had to set up the hotmail account as "other".  Works fine.  Except now, I can't get my contacts imported into the iPad.  Only if I create the account as Microsoft exchange or Microsoft hotmail.  Can anyone help?

  • Import contact with photo from google

    How Do I import contact with photos from google to iCloud?
    I uses iPhone6 , 6+ , iPad Air all iOS8.1 and Mac Air Yosemite
    I uses google contact with photo all but I need to export all contacts to iCloud but after I imported the photo not have any more.  How should I do to import all contact with photo from google?

    The thumbnailPhoto attribute is for an octet string, so I can see why that would not work as it should be essentially a byte array (or a binary blob holding the JPG/GIF), and that is what is expected when importing that attribute.

  • HT204150 Is there any way to import contacts from microsim?

    Is there any way to import contacts from microsim?

    You're welcome.  It might be a longshot, but you might be able to take the sim to your carrier and see if they can help.  They frequently transfer contacts between devices so they would at least have a sim reader and may be wiling to give you a vCard (.vcf) file with the contacts.  If you could get a combo .vcf file that was compatible, you could email that to yourself, then open the email on your iPad and tap the file to import the contacts.

    How do I import contacts from an AOL account to my iPad address book?

    Luther,
    This action would be performed on your computer, not on your iPad.  Once you transfer your contacts from AOL on your computer to your Windows contacts list, you would then sync them to your iPad via a Computer iTunes sync to your iPad.  You might want to Google the following:
    "hwo to import aol contacts to windows contacts"
    Or Google the following:
    "how to import aol contacts to itunes"
    Or
    "how to import aol contacts to ipad"

    How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

    Hi,
    Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
    Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there
