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

If you reference my last ichat question, you will see that I have had serious problems and had to create a new account.
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

I can't import contacts from Outlook to Address Book

I've tried to do the research before asking this question, but I can't get this to work. How do you import contacts from Microsoft Outlook to Address book? When I try to export from Outlook, the only option I have is .csv file, it doesn't give me an option to export as a vcard. I've exported to a .csv file and tried importing this into Address Book as a text file, and it opens up a window called Text File Import. When I click OK nothing happens. I'm new to the Mac world so I don't know what I'm doing wrong or what I'm missing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

One way if you are still accessing an email account with Outlook is the following:
In Contacts, click the contact you want to send as a vCard or select all to send all, and then on the Actions menu, click Forward as vCard.
All contacts will be added to a new message created as separate vCard attachments. Send the message to an email account you are accessing with the Mail.app on the Mac.
Create a folder on the Mac desktop or in your location of choice and save all vCard attachments received via email to this folder.
Launch Address Book and at the menu bar, go to File > Import and select vCards navigating to the folder that contains the vCard files sent from Outlook.

How can i import contacts from a csv file to "iCloud Contacts"?

How can I import contacts from a csv file to "iCloud Contacts"?

The only way I know of to import cells from a csv file is by creating a new file. But then you can select the desired cells and copy them to the other file. I just did it to be sure it works.
1. Create the new spreadsheet file via the upload command.
2. Select the cells (table) that you want to move to the other file and press command+C (copy).
3. Close the new file and open the existing file.
4. Select the top/right cell of the area to receive the copied "table" and press commant+V (paste).
I hope this is what you're trying to do!

How can i import contacts from my regular sim to iphone 5 (nano sim)

how can i import contacts from my regular sim to iphone 5 (nano sim)

Sync the phone with the regular sim to the appropriate program on your
computer. When you set up the iPhone 5 in iTunes on that computer, you
will be offered the chance to import the contacts, etc.
Or take old phone and new iPhone to your wireless provider. They have the
equipment to do this quickly.

How do i import contacts from my hotmail account

how do i import contacts from my hotmail account? Every time i try, there's a message that keeps popping up saying that it can't do because the contacts aren't separated by commas...????? Please help, i'm a recent "switcher"
thanks

The short answer, for now, is you don't. It's increasingly clear that Microsoft does not want to extend this privilege to users of free HotMail accounts, not does it want to offer POP3 access to anyone other than paying HotMail Plus users at this point, and for the foreseeable future. And, IMAP: that's out of the question, apparently.
While the plugin idea is a nice one, the referenced open-source HTTPMail plug in is broken by Mac OS X 10.5, and nothing has been heard to date from the developer about an update to support Mail in Leopard.

How can i import contacts from android to iphone?

Hi.
I just switched over from my old Samsung Galaxy S3 android phone to my new iPhone 6 plus.
As a first thing in setting up my new iphone, I want to import my contacts.
I have tried some ways but they don't work.
I have installed a 'contacts backup and restore' app called 'GCloud' on my android app. I generated a .csv file from this backup app. But I cannot import contacts from the csv file to my iphone.
I also tried Google contacts; the easiest way. But somehow Google simply refuses to sync my latest contacts list. It contains a very old and outdated list of contacts.
Thanks for help.

Can I delete all the contacts from Facebook in my phone contact list.. !!!

I am a new i phone ower... had Droid for over 4 years..   Currently... I miss my Droid!!... iphone seems to control me.. and I hate that
I have to use itunes..
Now it tells me (iphone 5).. I can not delete those off my phone contacts from Facebook. I don't want all those on there I rarely speak with
or contact..
PLEASE tell me how to control my phone..
Peggy

Thanks.. did that...   When I try to download facebook to my iphone
it asked for my id, pwd.. etc.
You're welcome.
Not sure how your FaceBook contacts were available or are available with the Contacts app on your iPhone if you have not already downloaded and installed the FaceBook app from the iTunes App Store.
This is when you try to download the FaceBook app from the iTunes App Store on your iPhone, or when accessing the FaceBook app on your iPhone that has already been downloaded and installed?
1. Voicemail.. I tap the person who left message.. in the voicmail.. (I think I am in the right screen/program)... I see the little button at the bottom moving as if a recording is on.. but NO volume.. nothing!!
When selecting Voicemail from within the Phone app and selecting a voicemail to listen to the voicemail, have you selected Speaker at the top right to listen to the voicemail through the iPhone's speaker? If not, you need to place the iPhone to your ear to listen to the voicemail.
2. How can I delete pictures off the "photos" .. camera roll and all that downloaded from Facebook, etc. and my latptop. I DO NOT want???
Select the Photos App.
Seelct Camera Roll from Albums in the Photos App.
Select Edit at the top right to select a single photo to delete or multiple photos to delete followed by selecting the Red Delete button at the bottom right, or with a photo selected from within the Camera Roll viewing the selected photo full screen, there is a Trash Can icon at the bottom right. After selecting the Trash Can icon at the bottom right, a big red Delete Photo button is provided along with a Cancel button.
Seems like these iphones do more than the owner wants.. NO control and I understand no customer service .. made me sicke no "owner's manual etc. to refer to as a hard copy. .. sorry I am much older than the average iphone owner, so I like to have hard copies... cause I don't trust my laptop to keep all the info, etc.
What?
You must be joking. I'm no spring chicken and have never needed to check the iPhone user guide.
There is plenty of control; Apple includes a mobile version of the iPhone User Guide with a Safari bookmark, or you can download the iPhone User Guide as a PDF file from here

Apple offers free telephone support for the first 90 days after the purchase date and free support at an Apple Retail Store.

How do i import contacts from iPhone to address book?

how do i import contacts from iphone to address book?

Ok, I knew it was a long shot. The merge prompt normally is only available when you first sync your device. I'm not sure how things got out of sync in the first place, but you may have to manually delete the contacts from your phone that you don't want there at this point. I would try adding a new contact on your phone followed by sync to confirm that it's picking up new contacts though.
Unfortunately I need to go now, so if you're still having problems I suggest your start a new post in the forum to see if someone else can help. Good luck!

What is the best way to import contacts from a spreadsheet to my iphone 4S

Hi,
I have around 20,000 contacts that I wish to import onto my iphone 4S.
I am currently compiling a spreadsheet from all different sources. I am based in the UK.
Would there be any format that I need to used?
Is there some sort of application that can be usedto import contacts from different sources?
Thanks guys!

The only way you're gonna get your contacts into the iPhone contacts app is by syncing them through iTunes, from a supported contact application on your computer, or through an Exchange setup like Gmail. So, you will have to get these contacts into Oulook, Windows Address Book, OS X Address Book or in the "cloud".
