Importing contacts from Microsoft Office

I recently left a position and would like to add all of my Microsoft contacts onto my Macbook. However, the file is not recognized by my Mac. What is the best way to move .pst files over? Thank you.

Ok, may I suggest two paths
First path: from Outlook on your PC, select all your contacts then go to Action>forward as vcard. That I think will generate an email with all the incividual vcards attached. Just send that email to yourself and receive/open it on your mac, the drag and drop the vcards in Address Book.
Second path: download and install Thunderbird on your pc if you don't have it yet, then launch it and choose to import from outlook your address book contacts, just follow the instructions. Once imported in thunderbird, then choose to export, export as LDIF, name the file, then bring that file to your mac. Then in Address Book go to file>import>LDIF... and you should be done.
hope this helps

    Microsoft Office is not a problem, you have the license key for it so it's just a matter of getting it installed and using the old key.
    If you have a newer OS X verison that won't run the older Office version, then usually there is a upgrade fee to install the newer, more compatible Office version.
    You can't use the old verison copied to the new drive, it's copy protected and you won't get all the parts anyway.

  • 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 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.

  • Import contacts from old outlook 2013 to new Outlook 2013

    I recently had to get a new computer.  I removed the boot drive from the old computer and installed it as drive F on the new computer. This worked great in recovering my large data files.  However, drive F contains an instance of Outlook 2013
    as does drive C.  How do I copy to or import drive F's contact info to the new Outlook 2013 contacts?  I do not need the old email messages as I already have gotten them from the email service provider.

    Hi
    As per the information and details provided by you, to import contacts from old Outlook 2013 to the new Outlook 2013 please follow these steps: -
    Collect Files from the Old Computer
    First, you need the PST from your old computer. In most cases, they will be in the default location Outlook uses. To quickly access the default PST location outside of
    Outlook, paste this line in Windows Explorer’s address bar:
    %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    Copy the Files to the New Computer
    Now, you will copy the PSTs to the new computer. If you have several PSTs in the folder and are not sure which one is the one with your data, look at the file dates and
    file sizes. If you have 265KB PST files, they are empty and don’t need to be moved.
    Paste the following line into the address bar.
    %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    In this folder you will have the NK2, SRS, XML, outlprnt, and VBA project files.
    Open the AppData Roaming folder using the following command and copy the NK2 file to the folder.
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Outlook
    Create a Profile
    After the PST file is on the local drive, type mail in the start search field on the
    Start menu or go to Control Panel, Mail then opens the profile dialog. (If you use the
    Category view, mail is under the Users group; in Win 64-bit, Mail is under 32-bit application.
    Click the Show Profile button.
    Click Add to create a new profile.
    Enter a descriptive name for your profile.
    Enter the name you want to use for your display name, your email address, and your password.
    Add Your Existing Data File (PST) to the Profile
    If you have an Outlook data file PST, and you want to use with your new profile, then please follow these steps: -
    Select the newly created profile, then click Properties.
    Click Data files button to open Account Setting dialog to the Data files tab.
    Click Add then browse to your existing PST file.
    If the PST is a native Outlook 2003/2007 file type, choose the top entry for the Outlook Personal File. Click Ok.
    Select your existing PST file.
    You can enter a friendly name or just click OK to return the Account Settings dialog.
    Click the Sets as Default button. Select the PST Outlook created when it created the profile and click Remove. If you want, click Open folder to find and deletes this PST.
    I hope this information will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards

    It sounds to me that you are migrating from a PC computer to a Mac.
    To the extent that you are using Microsoft Office on your PC, you should just purchase Microsoft Office 2011 for your Mac.  All of your Word, Excel and PowerPoint files should open easily in Office 2011.  Your contact/mail program, Outlook, is now also supported in Office 2011, but I personally have no experience in cross-platform data transfer for Outlook.  Somewith with cross-platform Outlook experience, please jump in!

  • 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!

    Sync the phone with the regular sim to the appropriate program on your

    will be offered the chance to import the contacts, etc.
    Or take old phone and new iPhone to your wireless provider. They have the
