Importing Yahoo contacts...

Is there way for me to import my yahoo email contacts into my mail application that i set up for yahoo? As it is, when I Attemp to write a new email, there are no contacts in my iPad email...

Yes I am using the in but app and set up using the yahoo option. I have moved the sliders to on for mail contacts calendar etc but I see nothing still. I have removed all other sources of contacts and still it's empty. Is there anyway to force a resync? Many thanks.

    You pin the site to the top sites tiles
    1. Hover your cursor over the site on top sites you want
    2. Wait for the two buttons to show up in the top left corner
    3. Tap the one with the pin so it highlights in blue

  • HT4489 unable to import my contacts from yahoo

    How do i import my yahoo contacts

    Try following this (it's slightly different that the one above):
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts/groups) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and set this to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your Yahoo account and turn off contacts syncing with Yahoo.
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the other groups back to your phone, and to iCloud.

    Dear all,
    I set up my Yahoo mail account for the Mail on my iPhone 4. However I don't seem to be able to enter my Yahoo mail contacts from there when I want to write and send an e-mail (only my iPhone contacts).
    Could somebody tell me how to import my Yahoo mail contacts into my iPhone 4?
    Thanks!

  • Importing a contact folder from external hard drive onto new iphone

    It is kind of a long story...my mom was updating iphone on computer when computer crashed. iphone crashed. had friend move all info from crashed computer onto external hard drive. got new iphone.
    so, she no longer has a computer and we have to share mine. she has her own itunes on an external drive and i have my own itunes on another hard drive. i got almost everything except the contacts moved back on her phone. i see the folder and contacts in a 'contact' folder on the external hard drive, but how do I move that to the new iphone without it being in outlook/google/yahoo. i tried 'adding folder' to the library containing the contacts, but that didn't work.
    any suggestions? thanks!!!

    thanks for the advise about the two users. so, i did that. but, now cannot seem to import the contact folder into the Address Book. the files in the 'contact'-hard drive are called CONTACT files (.contact). i don't know what that means. can i open those in the address book?

  • Will we ever see 2-way syncing with Yahoo contacts?

    Well, another major update has come and gone, and 1.4 really does have some nice features (and seems at least initially to have improved battery life, which had gotten beyond pathetic for me), but still no ability to make changes to Yahoo contacts on the Pre.  I would have just left my contacts on Google if I'd had any idea it would be this long.  I don't even know if Palm or Yahoo is the holdout, and at this point don't care -- I'd just REALLY like to be able to modify contacts on the phone.  Anyone have any insight at all?
    Thanks,
    -- robert

    Only thing I can offer is Yahoo does allow exporting your contacts online. Then you can import that file into google contacts.

  • HT204053 How do I download contacts from my iPhone 4 to the cloud so I can upgrade to the 5?   I have several contacts on my phone that are not in my yahoo contact list.   The cloud onky has the contacts that have been entered into yahoo.

    How do I download my contacts from my iPhone 4 to the cloud.   I have several contacts that I entered on my phone...they are not in yahoo.   I do not want to loose them when I upgrade to a 5

    To transfer your data and settings to a new device see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.  You can also use an app like My Contacts Backup to back up the contacts on your phone as attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  If you need to, you can later open this email on your new phone and tap the attachment to import your contacts.

  • Yahoo contacts on iPhone

    I recently imported my yahoo contacts into a new iphone. When I try to edit a contact on my iphone, it requires my yahoo password. How do I stop this so I can edit on the iphone without entering the password each time?

    So all new itesm should goto icloud.
    When you open the contacts app, in the upper left hand corner do you have a reload button or one that say Groups.
    If its groups, are all the different items checked?

  • Don't want phone to download all of my yahoo contacts.

    How do I keep it from dong that and is there anyway to remove them?

    I believe it happens in the download app for Y Mail.
    There is a little checkbox on the bottom when you set up the yahoo account. if you don't uncheck the box that is how it imports the contacts in your phones contact list.
    If you forgot to uncheck it the only way I found is to delete the duplicates from the phones contacts list. Sorry.
    however after the account is set up, the merge contacts does not add to your contact list when checking for email.
    Yahoo should of had this feature set to off and allowed the user to turn it on if they desired.

  • Missing Contact Names - Only Numbers Showing - All Yahoo Contact Data Gone

    The other day I did a sync and afterward in the phone tab, all my Favorites and Recents are displaying numbers and NOT the names of my contacts as they had always done before.
    Further, if I click on the "Contacts" tab, there are only 10 contacts listed when before there were several hundred!
    This was just a sync, no software update. I have tried several troubleshooting steps including:
    1. Checked my Yahoo account online to make sure all contact info still exists there, it does.
    2. Re-entered my Yahoo credentials in iTunes to make sure contact info was syncing. It accepted credentials as expected.
    3. I restored my iPhone using the latest backup (from a few days prior) with no luck.
    4. I restored my iPhone from a backup several months ago (July) and my contact names were back...but all my music, apps, photos, video, etc. was gone so I restored back to the most recent backup.
    5. I then imported all my Yahoo contacts into my Gmail account and then added my Gmail account to the phone in the hope that it would grab the contact names. Nope.
    So now I'm stuck and looking for assistance from anyone who can offer my advice on what else I may try if anything. This seems to be a reoccurring issue with Yahoo contacts on the forums here as of late with different people experiencing slightly different behavior (like me having all numbers but missing names and other people having names but no numbers).
    What's going Yahoo? What's going on Apple?
    What's the fix, or at least a workaround???

    Update on the Gmail workaround:
    Importing all my Yahoo contacts to Gmail and then choosing to sync Google/Gmail contacts in iTunes before syncing seemed to do the trick.
    I think this is definitely a Yahoo contacts problem and not necessarily iPhone.
    Any thoughts?

  • Can I sync 2 iPhones to one itunes account but have seperate yahoo contacts

    We have 2 iPhones and want to be able to share the same itunes account which doesn't seem to be a problem. However we can't seem to have separate yahoo contacts synced with the two separate phones. It wants to keep putting my wife's contacts on my phone or vice a versa. Now our Yahoo contacts are all mucked up. Any help would be appreciated. I can't believe we can't do this.

    You can sync many devices to one itunes account. I, for instance, have two ipods and an iphone on one account. They all have different setting and contents, but still only sync to one itunes account.
    Yes you and your wife can use one itunes account.

  • Is there any way to import a contact list into the mototalk app

    I have the new Mototalk app and I need to import about 350 push to talk contacts into the mototalk contacts. Is there any way that it can be done from a cvs or database file

    Moto is ducking the issue and misguiding you, not surprising now that Moto is owned by Google. Apple cannot help you with Motorola's own app.
    Moto's information says only that "MOTOTALK automatically imports your contacts to the app" but I can't find anything that says where these contacts will be obtained. If it's not picking up the contacts from your iPhone's Contacts, then I can't guess what they mean. I doubt very much that you'll be able to load contacts from a Mac, but I can't say with certainty.
    Regards.

  • 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.
