Outlook express contacts to iphone-trick question

I have a set of contacts on my work pc in outlook express. I do not sync my iphone with this computer, I sync it with my Macbook. I want to put this contact list on my iphone or mobileme, so that it is on my iphone. Any suggestions?

Export them from Outlook Express to/as vCard files.
Move/copy the files to your Mac.
Import from the files on your Mac to the Address Book app.

  • HT204150 I linked my outlook express with icloud, not realizing it would change my outlook express contacts.  I deleted email addresses from my iphone which in turn deleted them from my PC.  Is there any way to get these addresses back?

    I linked my outlook express with icloud, not realizing it would change my outlook express contacts.  I deleted email addresses from my iphone, not wanting them there which in turn deleted them from my PC.  Is there any way to get these addresses back? Seems I no longer have an outlook contacts list.

    It's Outlook, not Outlook Express (different program) and if you have now deleted them from iCloud and do not have a backup they are gone.

  • Outlook Express Contacts to my new iMac

    I am so frustrated and can't seem to figure a way to get my old outlook express contacts to my new iMac.
    Anyone know how this is done?
    I have tried a few ways but nothing seems to work for me.
    Thanks

    In Outlook express, export the contacts to a file. For the file format, choose comma separated vars. You can then import the contacts into Address Book using the Import command from the File menu.
    You won't be able to import any groups this way. If you have groups, export all the contacts in a group to a file and import the files one at a time. Make groups in Address Book for each of the exports. You can then use the Last Import group in Address Book to select them all and move them to the correct group.
    Another method I have heard of is to use Thunderbird as a conduit. You can import all your OE stuff to Windows Thuderbird, transfer the config files to the Mac, then use the mac version of Thunderbird to export the data to a Mail/Address Book format.
    There are third party apps that will import from Outlook--O2M is one. I don't think there is a free one, hence my directions above.

  • Importing pc outlook express contacts into mail on new mac

    Hello,
    I've been looking thru the support archives and can't find anything current on this issue (archived stuff is 2009). Is there any easy way to import your contact info from pc outlook express to mail 4.5 on a new macbook pro? I'm not sure which version the outlook express is, (it's my father-in-law's machine) he just made the switch to a mac. He is not very computer savy, hence the reason I am posting the question... I have looked at o2mac and was wondering if it can be done easily without purchasing an outside application... I have a brother-in-law who is working on the problem but he is soo pc oriented that he cannot find himself around the mac without thinking in pc-mode so I'm now trying to help (I'm AM a mac person...) but not outlook! He says that when he tries to import it comes in all gobbley-gooked (his words)....
    Any help appreciated!

    Install Mozilla Thunderbird onto the PC.
    http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/
    On the PC import whatever you need, mails, contacts from Outlook Express
    From Thunderbird export contacts as LDIF. Copy the file over to your Mac and import it in Address Book.

  • Outlook Express Contacts

    Is there anyway of getting my contacts from my Windows based Outlook Express, over to the Ipad Mail.

    Yes.
    Copied from the iPad user guide.
    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 or 2007 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.)
    The address book used by Outlook Express is called Windows Address Book. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes.
    If you have manually entered any contacts in your iPad's address book and Windows Address Book includes contact info, you will be provided a merge prompt with the first sync, which you want to select.

  • HT1414 how to transfer outlook 2010 contacts to iphone 4

    I am having trouble transfering Outlook contacts from Outlook 2010 to iphone 4 that I just reset to the factory settings (no contact info).  I have several contacts folders in outlook, each one associated with a different email account.  When I go to sync with iTunes, no matter what I do no contacts are transferred over.

    Hey angelogranz,
    Tell us a little bit more about what version of Windows & Outlook you're using. And do you have more than one version of Microsoft Office installed (2003 and 2007, for example)?
    I've still got a few Apple support articles you'll want to look over to see if they help.
    If you're trying to sync with an Exchange server look here:

    Otherwise here is basic troubleshooting:

  • How do I sync my contacts from outlook express to my i pod touch?

    I am very new to the iPod touch and it is aslow learning curve for me.
    I would like to be able to read and send emails from my ipod. I am with shaw.ca Outlook Express. I figured out how to load my email address in to seetings but I want my contacts there-how do I sync those in?

    Iassume you are using Windows SP.  if so you can Windows Mail (not Windows Live Mail).  You can import your Outlook Express contacts into Windows Mail Contacts.  Windows Mail Contacts will sync with your iPod.

  • Syncing with Outlook Express

    Is there any way to sync the Iphone with Microsoft Outlook? It is one of my e-mail accounts that is used for my work, but I have not successfully synced that account with my Iphone.

    My Outlook Express contacts synced fine with the iPhone. Wish I could sync my original Palm's calendar without having to pay $90+ for Outlook 2007...
