OWA - Bulk Import of Contacts into Group

What is an option for importing a list of email addresses into OWA Contact Group/creating OWA Contact Group and pasting members' mail addresses into it? Similarly, if I create a new folder in My Contacts, how I can bulk import into this new folder? When
I use Import Contacts standard OWA feature, contacts always imported into default Contacts folder?

Hi,
Based on my knowledge, there is no feature available in OWA 2013 for you to import Contacts. Please refer to the following article to import Contacts or Contact Group from Outlook 2013 to have a try:

Import multiple contacts into a group from an email message

I have received an email from which I wish to import the additional contacts into my address book.
I used to be able to drag/drop them into my address book all at once, but can't any more.
I have also tried drag/drop into a Numbers file to try to convert to a csv and then import, but it copied all the addresses into a single field and I couldn't get them to separate.
UGH. How can I import multiple contacts into a group in my address book from an email message?

That is a few too many to do one at a time.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

How do you get your contacts into groups?

how do you get your contacts into groups?

When you ask a question, please include the version of Mac OS X on your computer. iOS is not a Mac operating system.
Assuming you are running OS 10.9.1:
Open Contacts. Click File in the menu bar and select New Group. Enter the name of the group in Contacts on the left.
Go back to All Contacts (on the left) then drag and drop the names you want in that group on to the folder you just named.
Repeat as necessary for other groups.
Note that the names remain, as they should, in All Contacts, even after you have added them to a group.. You can delete a group if you want. The names will still remain in All Contacts.

Importing Shared Contacts into the Global Address List (Outlook 2013)

A colleague of mine has made a contact list which is going to be shared with other colleagues to increase productivity.
His question is, if it's possible to import the contact list into the Global Address List after it has been shared?
The contact list does not appear in my Global Address List, instead it appears in the People section (next to Calender).
If you need technical info about the office version etc., feel free to ask!
Thanks in advance.

SP-Brown,
You can import contacts into Active Directory, so that it can be included in GAL. There are some gotchas with that however. Maybe, a simple Outlook folder sharing is more convenient for you. You can share Outlook Contacts folders among collagues just the
same as Outlook Calendar sharing works. Start here:

https://support.office.com/en-in/article/Share-a-contacts-folder-with-others-58ca1290-e170-4f89-a213-03aa6750bcf3
With Exchange Public Folders you can achieve somewhat the same.
If you really want to mess with AD and the GAL, this is your article:

The ideal situation would be if the shared Contacts Folder shows up in the Offline GAL, but I'll try to fiddle around with it for a bit.
Is there also a possibilty that users can import a contact list so that appears in their Offline GAL?, I do think that it might be a hassle to keep the contacts updated....

HT2513 is it possible to import my contacts into my ical?

is it possible to import my contacts into my ical?

This is NOT what we (most of us) want to do ... We want to have the information from our contact(s) automatically be available in the calendar event. If we "invite" the contact, they get to see and are asked to respond (accept / decline / maybe) ... NOT always something we want. For example, I am going to an event and I want to remember their face (what they look like - maybe I've only met them once awhile ago), their spouses name, children or business profile / items and I don't want them to know I have made this one of my agenda items for the event. If I entered all this including their profile picture in contacts, I certainly don't want to enter it all again AND BTW, iCal doesn't really have the proper fields for this information anyway. Sure I can use the notes section but this is double entry. As you can see from just this one example, I would not want to invite them to this calendar entry. I can think of many other instances where that would be problematical (to say the leasat) as well.
It is really incomprehansible that contact, iCal and even mail does not have at least this level of integration.

I would like set up my contacts into groups.

I would like set up my contacts into groups.
There seems to be no way to do this in either iOS or OSX. Android figured this out and I see no reason why Apple can't give us the capability to group medical contacts for example into an easily accessible group without having to resort to using Dr. as the first part of the last name in order to have them in a convenient group.
There are many posts that ask for this and Apple seems to have no desire to give us something useful in the entire spectrum of software while fiddling around with watches etc.

In the Contacts app in OS X click the "+" at the bottom and choose New Group. Once groups are created just drag the entries into the group list on the left in the Contacts app. You may have to go to the Contacts View menu and click Show Groups.
You cannot create groups in iOS, or assign contacts to groups using the built-in Contacts app. However, there are several 3rd party apps that allow you to move contacts among groups. I use Speed Names, but there are several others that people have told me are easier to use.

How to import a contact into an existing address book? contact is exported from outlook.

I have created 3 address books. I want to import new contacts into these address books selectively.
I tried importing a contact that was exported from Outlook as a v card. It worked fine except that it created the new contact as yet another new address book!

Importing contacts does create a new address book. Then just drag and drop the contacts into the book of your choice and delete the new book when it is empty.

Bulk import of switches into ACS

i have a new acs 1120 running 5.1.0.44
i have over 1000 cisco switches to add to this ( good thing i have the unlimted lic) .
All of the switches for the most part are the same type is there a way to bulk import these switches into the ACS? Bascially say hey 192.1.1.1-253 is a certain switch.
The 2nd part of this question is im pretty sure i am going to have to log into ever switch to config it to talk to the ACS any way around that?
Thanks for the help

What you need to do is as follows:
1) Go to
Network Resources>
Network Devices and AAA Clients. Devices can be imported from here
2) Press File Operations then Add, then Next and "Download "Add" Template"
You will get a file similar to the following (this is what is displayed by default for ACS 5.1)
name:String(64):Required,description:String(1024),subnets:Subnets(a.b.c.d/m;...):Required,"supportRADIUS:Boolean(true,false):Required",radiusSecret:String(32),"supportTACACS:Boolean(true,false):Required",tacacsSecret:String(32),"singleconnect:Boolean(true,false)","legacyTACACS:Boolean(true,false)",Location:String(256),Device Type:String(256)
3) This line must be retained as is for the first line of the import file and also defines the structure of each data record that corresponds to a device defintions. For devices that will only do TACACS the following can be used to define an entry:
device1,,1.2.3.4/32,false,,true,cisco,false,false,All Locations:US,All Device Types:Switch
///explanation
device1,                   /// name
,                              /// description, empty
1.2.3.4/32,               /// subnet - this is in fact IP address 1.2.3.4
false,                       /// not support RADIUS
,                              /// empty, shared secret
true,                         /// support T+
cisco,                       /// T+ shared secret
false,                        /// singleConnect
false,                        /// legacyTACACS
All Locations:US,         // location NDG
All Device Types:Switch // Device Type
Add a line/entry for each device you want to add duing the import process
4) Now import the new definitions
Select File Operations then Add, then Next and Next and can then define the file to be imported and then press "Finish"

You can't create groups in the contacts app on the iPad. See my post in this discussion here for alternatives.

Import Contacts into Group

1st of all, besides paying for MobileMe, there isn't any way to sync Address Book across Macs, is there? I will be upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard any day now... any pleasant surprises in this regard?
So assuming no to my above questions, is there a way to import contacts into a certain group? I use groups in Address Book like different phone books to organize contacts. I need to import & merge a group on 1 Mac to another. Right now when I do this, it puts them in All. This means I would have to search the newly imported contacts one by one and manually drop them into the group.

How do you get the vCards into their own folder when importing? I just noticed there is a Group called Last Import that has my import test contacts in it. Looks like I can shift click all those contacts & drag them into the group.
Now if I had 2 separate groups on the other computer that needed to be kept separate & dragged into 2 separate groups on the new computer, how would I handle that?

How can I import iPhone contacts into Mac Address book

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and am in the process of trying to dump my Windows PC.
All of my important contacts are on my iPhone. How can I get those contacts into my Mac Address Book?
The same question goes for the music (ripped from CD) and my video files that are on my iPhone? The media is not that big of a deal because I can easily transfer it from my PC to my Mac but I assume I am not the only one in the world trying to do this and that Apple would make it very easy for MSFT Windows users to easily migrate to Macs.
I must be an idiot but I don't see any option in iTunes to transfer the data from my iPhone into iTunes and/or the Address Book.
Thanks

The iPhone's primary function is NOT a word processor or a spread sheet analyzer.
I didn't say, nor was I trying to imply ANYTHING of the sort. You should read what I provided again a little slower and in it's entirety, not taking this out of context, which you made into Apples and Oranges.
It IS an iPod, a device designed to store and play music (in addition to being a browser and a phone).
It is a phone, an iPod, and an internet device, which supports transferring iTunes content from iTunes on a single computer ONLY.
Making it difficult to transfer my legal music from my iPhone to my Mac does not make me want to go out and buy more Apple products or Apple software.
Good, then don't - no skin off my back. I couldn't care less if you want to remain a Windows sufferer. All this doesn't come from Apple. Much of it comes from those who OWN the distribution rights for content sold thru the iTunes Store.
All of Apple's commercials imply how easy the user experience is over Windows. Well, in this case, they missed the boat BIG TIME!
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but let me get this straight. You will likely need to transfer much more than just music from your Windows PC to your Mac and if so, how do you plan on accomplishing this? If you are transferring Word and Excel files, photos, and any other data, you won't be using an iPhone for this, so I don't see the big deal with transferring your iTunes library along with all other data being transferred.
I understand that the iPhone was not designed to be used as a backup. However, you allow the contacts to be merged in but not the music that I legally installed (but didn't purchase from the iTunes store).
I don't allow anything - this is a user to user help forum only.
As I provided in my first post in this thread - the sync process for contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks with an iPhone is bidirectional with the supported application on your computer. This is a sync process by definition of syncing - which is not the same for other data such as iTunes content and photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
Apple wants to make it difficult unless I purchased the music from iTunes.
No, Apple or really those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders for content sold thru the iTunes Store wants to make this difficult. Content sold thru the iTunes Store is set up by Apple to be a break even - which is included with the Apple stockholder's report. Apple makes their profit via sales of the iPod and iPhone. The bulk of the iTunes Store revenue goes to those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders for the content.
In addition, if my hard disk suffered a crash and I lost all my music it just seems stupid not to be able to pull it off my iPhone (yes, I know data should be backed up on a different drive, and mine is, but I am sure a lot of people do not back up their data).
Maintaining a backup of your data is important for this very reason, and for other reasons which is not Apple's responsibility. I believe iTunes includes an occasional warning message to backup your iTunes library (which can be turned off), and iTunes includes an option to transfer content purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone - since the overwhelming majority of this content includes DRM protection required by those who own the distribution rights or the copyright holders.
The iPhone was not designed as an external storage device or as a backup device - end of story. If someone chooses not to maintain a backup, they are playing Russian roulette with their data. Maintaining a backup is important regardless the platform, but even more so when running Windows with constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.

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.

Importing Outlook Contacts into Entourage

The Apple store imported my Outlook into Entourage, but my 2300 Contacts are missing thr Categories. What can be done?

iTunes on the PC can load contacts directly into iPhone.
Or you can export vcards, copy to Mac, load into "Address Book", then sync into iPhone with Mac iTunes. Outlook only has an option to export vcards 1-at-a-time. There are several 3rd party programs for the PC that can export all-at-once.

Contacts into groups

The contacts catorgories in Outlook 2003 won't sync into
groups in Iphone.
any help welcome
chas

I can't use iCloud because my computer is running 10.6.8 and can't go to 10.7 (older machine). Otherwise this wouldn't be a problem. I have individual contacts and I have contact groups, both on my iPhone. I want to do some housecleaning and put individual contacts into specific groups. I can't figure out HOW to do this. Can't do it on the iPhone, can't access iCloud Contacts. Do I use the Mac Address Book? I can't figure out how to sync that with my iPhone either.
Thanks!

Have issues with Contact locking up while dragging contact into Group

After creating a new Group in iCloud-Contacts, while dragging and dropping new contacts into the group, the browser locks up each time I try to drag a new contact into the group.
Browser: Firefox 10.0.1

I am also having a similar problem with my 13 " macbook pro purchased in Aug 2011. I took the same to
m/s Unicorn Infosolutions Pvt Ltd , Mumbai ( authorised service centre for apple). They first checked it and said that it was a hardware problem and I will have to keep the MBP with them till they get the replacement part from Bangalore and the repair would be free of cost since it was under warranty. So far so good. Then late in the evening , they called me up to inform that there was liquid found inside and the mother board would have to be repaced and the same would cost Rs 64,000/- which is slightly less than the cost of a new mbp.
Unable to understand the formation of liquid since the time they checked up in the morning and their discovery in the late evening.
They probably had a change of heart regarding replacement of the part under warranty.
Apple should take serious action against such firms which indulge in such unscrupulous activities.
Now I am left high and dry since apart from scrapping my new MBP, my data is also lost.
Hope Apple can come out with a solution for this problem and replace/rectify the machine.
