Address book import of csv file gets empty address book

I have a .csv file from a Windows 'Contacts' window. It contains four hundred entries, each composed of a name and E-mail address. The first line of the file says .csv "name, Email '; the entries are separated by returns and the areas that fall within the comma.

When I import to intoThunderbird, I say to import an address book from the file and to import only the Email address and display name fields. When the import is executed, it is very fast and no errors are displayed. The new address book is displayed among the Thunderbird address books, but it is empty.

Thank you
Joe Nelan

To import an address book, try the following steps:

Of the Treasury Board, click "Address book" (or 3-bar menu-> tools-> address book).

In the list in the left pane address books, click the one you want to import (or use the "personal address book").

On the menu bar, select Tools-> import. Opens a new window "import."

Click on "Address books" and "Next"

Select "Text file", click "Next".

Near the lower-right corner replace LDIF 'separated by commas.

Navigate to the folder where your CSV file. Left click on it once. Click on 'open '.

For CSV, there is no standard for the number or the order of the fields. The screen you see allows you to 'match' your entry with the fields of TB.
With respect to mapping of the fields, you have two columns: one of your CSV names and one of the CT. What you're trying to get first name, last name first name family name, etc.. If you are lucky, they will be already matched to the top. But if not, you can click on one and move it upwards or downwards in the list until it is opposite the name of the corresponding field. This will get names, email, phone, etc. in the right places. Make sure the fields are checked and the ones you don't want is unchecked.
Once you have everything set, click OK.

Note 1: the file name of your CSV file becomes the name of the address book (for example AddrBook.csv will produce an address book named "AddrBook").
Note 2: when you first watch the imported address book, it can be empty. Click on another (for example, "personal address book"), and then return to that matter.

  • Import of csv - Cluster Get - Export csv

    Hello community vmware,

    I'm looking for a script simple ps import a list of vm (based on a csv file that I feed into it).

    I would then result to a csv file of the 2 column (1 column with the name of the virtual machine) and the other with the corresponding cluster name, in that it is.

  • Several Variables import from CSV file

    Hello PowerCLI Masters!

    I've been dabbling in PowerCLI now for about 6 months, especially for larger deployments VM.  I've been tweaking my scripts to automate more over time.  I started with setting all the variables manually and just import the virtual machine to a txt file names, then created several loops in a single script that would incorporate different text files, depending on model, data store, disc sizes VLAN, etc..

    I think that the next step here is to import variables by vm (essentially, a line of a CSV file).  We receive our demands for construction as a spreadsheet, so it would be relatively easy to fill in the correct fields in a spreadsheet and run a script that will import values.  I can't seem to put on the right track with the simple search, so I thought I'd post it here and see if:

    1. someone already did and can provide guidance

    2. can someone put me on the right track to how I would go all this

    3. someone tell me that it is not possible (in the hope that it does not go down like that, but it is certainly possible)

    This IS JUST a SAMPLE of the SCRIPTS - may or may not have a syntax perfect at this stage...

    # SET VARIABLES #.

    $vmname = get-content C:\PowerShell\serverlist_1.txt
    $vmname | {foreach-object
    $vmname = $_

    $templatename = "TMPLT-GSI.
    $folder = "GSI".
    $date = get-Date - uformat "%Y %m %d '.
    $expdate = "20110930".
    $reqno = "00034.
    $sysowner = "GSI".

    $datastore = "DATASTORE_1".

    $cpu = 1
    $mem = 4096
    $datadrive1 = 26214400

    $datadrive2 = 52428800
    $pgname = "ECOM_902".

    #

    #

    Get-VM-name $vmname | Game-CustomField-name "Proprietary system" - value $sysowner - confirm: $false

    }

    So, rather than setting these values in the script, I want to shoot them from a spreadsheet that looks like this (a partial list at condition of course):

  • DIAdem - import programmatically .csv files with. STP file without dialog box

    Does anyone know how to import programmatically with a .csv files. STP file without opening the import box dialog box every time?

    I've been through the forum and seen for .xls files and solutions through the help file which is recommended to use the ExcelImport command, but these do not seem to work for .csv file types.  I am currently using the DataFileLoad command to import the files, which works very well to load the .csv files, but it forces me to go to the. STP file for each file.

    Does anyone know a better way to import a file .csv programmatically?

    Wow... Who had a fraction of the time that does the method of the dialog box.  I'll have to revise the data portion my DiAdem Advanced manual Plugin.

  • Window Movie Maker will not import a mp3 file get that a C: {file location} .mp3 error could not be imported

    OP: Window Movie Maker will not import an mp3 file. Why?

    I tried to imort a song from my music file which is in mp3 format, but the program won't. She won't tell me why, it just says: "C: {file location} .mp3 cannot be imported."  I imported 2 other songs that are the same exact format. Why is it cant import the file?

    Hello spardigus,

    1 - is the full error you get when you try to import the file?

    Some of the Mp3 files can be compressed in various formats. I suggest that you search information below and check out them if you are able to import the files.

    It might be possible that the file may be corrupted and is not readable by Movie Maker. I suggest that you copy the file to a different location on your computer and you are trying to import.

    Also check the size of the file. If it shows 0 bytes, there are good chances that the file may be damaged.

    I suggest that you try to convert this file to avi format using an Audio Converter. There are several converters which helps you convert the file in the required format. Convert the file and try to import.

    You can use your favorite search engine to find the program that will help convert the files.

  • Somehow, I lost my additional address books when I imported a .csv file. They where all there and I can't find the other 2 so pls help

    I had provided both with Thunderbird and I imported a new address book via .csv. Everything was good until somewhere, I closed this address book and the other two have disappeared. What could have happened, or how can I get these back?

    The two default in Thunderbird address books are staff and collected books. Neither of these can be deleted, so I have to guess that you turned off the directory pane in the window of the sort address book and simply cannot see them.

    Open the address book window.
    In the menu bar select pane display-in page-directory
