Is it possible to export my outlook contacts to my macbook address book?

Hi! I am trying to export my outlook contacts to my MacBook address book, is it possible or should I type every contact again? thanks!

There is a 3rd party application called o2m that does this and I can vouch for the fact that it works - a client of mine was going crazy until we found and used it.
Outlook sure makes it difficult to export mail stuff, doesn't it?
Best of luck.

HT2486 How do I import existing Outlook contact groups into Mac Address Book?

After months of problems with Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac, I am switching to Mac Mail. I seem to have successfully imported my individual contacts into Address Book. However, I have been unsuccessful in figuring out how to import group contacts into Mac Mail.
So far I have created .txt files, (a separate one for each group), listing each e-mail address in that group separated by a comma. Can I input this information into Address Book somehow? If not, how else can I import my groups into Address Book in a more efficient way than manually entering them? Manually dragging and dropping names into each new Address Book group is not an option, since I have about 50 groups with 20-50 people in each of them. It would take me extraordinary amounts of time to do that, not to mention the frustration.
A second question: There are many duplicates listed in my address book. When I select Card>Look for Duplicates, it tells me that No duplicates are found. They most definitely exist, however. How can I erase them without having to manually delete each duplicate?

You can't transfer the groups, you'll need to do it the hard way.
As for the duplicates, how many accounts do you have in your Address Book?

PC Companion 2.01, How to sync outlook contacts instead of windows address book

After the first installation of PC Companion the program uses the outlook contacts database to sync my phone. There was no problem.
After some weeks the program uses the windows phone book (wab-file) of outlook express instead of the original outlook 2000 contacts database.
The picture (image1) shows the sync target on my system: In this case the program uses the windows address book instead of the outlook.
I am sure, some weeks ago, I have seen the outlook icon on this place. In the meantime I have installed the media go extensions.
In the settings I can only select windows address book.
In advanced settings of pc companion only outlook express (windows address book) is available.
How can I configure or hack the program to use outlook 2000 contacts database again?
Is there any registry key or settings file?
Uninstall an new install does not help.

How to import contacts from iPhone to Macbook Address Book...?

Whenever I go under
iTunes > Info > Sync Contacts
It tries to import my empty contact list ON my mac to my iPhone, rather than import my iPhone contacts onto my Mac. How do I import my contacts into my address book?
Please be specific, because from my previous research on how to do it.... it was a very vague explanation.
Thank you!

Without a unique contact in the macbook address book, it will delete all the contacts from the phone. You must have a unique contact in the macbook to trigger the merge response from iTunes when you go to sync. Also, make sure you take the time in iTunes preferences to put the checkmark where it says Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. That way you have complete control over the sync process.

Best Practice for Shared Contacts available as an Address Book in Outlook??

Yep so crazy that Microsoft still refuses (by design) to enable address book option for Shared contacts!!!!!!! So I am asking what do they suggest then for my clients to have a shared contact list that is available as an address book and available
to sync to your phone?
Problem:
I have a client that the boss has a contact list in his outlook that he has synced to his phone that is shared so that everyone else on his team can see the contacts, since it is a shared contact list users are not able to add it to their address book (by
design..nice design)
Solutions I know of:
1.Use public folder for contact list...= Nope public folder contact list will not sync with his iphone/ipad...(yes there are 3rd party tools but I would prefer to not go this route)
2.Sharepoint....I have heard this one but don't know much about it. How does it sync to outlook and phones? Is it seemless? can user add contacts in outlook?
3. ??
Seems like this would be a huge issue that microsoft would have fixed by now. Let me know if anyone has any ideas...

Is it possible to change the size of the Picture in Address Book

Hi, the contact pictures in the Address Book are way to small, is there the possibility to show them bigger??
Thanks

No, I don't think so. When you put a picture on the card you can control what part of the picture is used, but there is no control for the subsequent size.
You could try using OS X Feedback and ask them to change it in the next release ...

How do I export addresses stored in a word document to my MacBook Address Book?

I have all my mailing addresses stored in a Word Doc and want to export them to my MacBook address book.

Hi Jujudal,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has information on the types of files you can import addresses into Contacts for Mac:
Contacts: Export and import your contacts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11586
Import one or more contacts (from a file other than a vCard)
You can import contact information that you saved or exported from other apps. The files can be in LDAP Interchange Format (LDIF) or text format (tab-delimited or comma-separated value (CSV)).
If you’re importing a tab-delimited or CSV file, verify it using a text editor such as TextEdit.
Remove any line breaks within a contact’s information. Line breaks can cause the import to fail.
Make sure that fields in a tab-delimited file are separated by a tab, instead of by another character. Don’t include spaces before or after tabs.
Make sure that fields in a CSV file are separated by a comma, instead of by another character. Don’t include spaces before or after commas.
Make sure all addresses have the same number of fields. Add empty fields as needed.
In Contacts, choose File > Import, select the file, change the encoding if necessary, and then click Open.
If you’re importing a text file, review the field labels. You can change field labels, or ignore or not import fields.
If the first card contains headers, make sure the headers are correctly labeled or marked “Do not import.” Any changes you make to this card are made in all of the cards in the file. To not import the headers card, select the “Ignore first card” checkbox.
To change a label, click the arrows next to the label and choose a new label. If you don’t want to import a field, choose “Do not import.”
If a contact has custom fields, the information in the fields isn’t imported.
When you import contacts into an Exchange account, information that isn’t supported in Contacts is added to the Notes field.
If you import a duplicate contact card, Contacts asks if you want to review the cards. For more information, see this Contacts help topic:
Resolve duplicate contact cards when importing contacts

JSR 75 might be the answer to your question. It seems that this is pretty new technology which would probably limit the number of cell phones your application can run upon.

Can't find how to get iPad Contacts into new iMac Address Book

I've got a brand new iMac and if I look in the import feature of Address Book it wants to import from a file on my iMac but there's no iPad listed there even though it's plugged in. iTunes only seems to sync first time from iMac to iPad but all my contact details are on the iPad. Surely there is there some way to migrate my iPad Contacts to my iMac address book isn't there?

Data to and from your iPad is managed via iTunes. With your iPad connected to your iMac, open iTunes and then select the Info Pane. There you can choose to sync data. I would advise that you first right click on the name of your iPad in the iTunes Devices list and choose BackUp. Just in case anything goes funky!
From the iPad 2 manual:
Info Pane
The Info pane lets you configure the sync settings for your contacts, calendars, email accounts, and web browser.
• Contacts
You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Microsoft Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one application at a time.)
If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve set up syncing.

Can I upload one contact from my iMac address book to my iphone from iCloud?

Can I upload one(1) contact from my iMac address book using icloud to my iphone without having to upload the whole address book??

No, it would upload (sync) your entire address book. If you want to get a single contact to your phone from Address Book you can select it, then go to File>Export>Export vCard and save it to your desktop. Then email the saved vCard (.vcf file) to yourself, open the email on your phone and tap the attachment to import the contact to your phone.

What file should i save my entourage contacts to import in address book

Help, again, sorry.
I need to import contacts from Entourage to Mail, what type of file is needed to be exported from Entourage to enable mail to import it?
Thank you.
Dean Jackson

The default export option for Entourage contacts is a tab-delimited plain text file which should work since the Tiger Address Book includes a Text File import option which doesn't always work as intended.
A better option in my opinion is creating a folder on the Desktop named Contacts or whatever you prefer.
Select a contact in the Entourage address book and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All to select/highlight all contacts.
Click and drag the highlighted contacts to the created folder on the Desktop. This will create a copy of each contact as a separate vCard file.
At the Address Book menu bar, go to File > Import and select vCards. Navigate to the created folder on the Desktop.
