Cannot export contacts Notes using automator?

Hello

I use automator to save my contacts into one. VCF.

I use the Export vCard command.

It works fine, but if I have notes attached to the contacts, they are not exported to the. VCF file.

I think that it is a bug, unless someone can tell be what I'm doing wrong.

See you soon

Tony

Hello

Yes, this action does not write the value of the Note field.

Solution:

Use the "Run the AppleScript" action instead of the action "export vCard.

In the action "run the AppleScript":

Clear all default text

Copy and paste this script:

on run {input, parameters} -- this export VCARD to one file
    set destFile to (path to desktop folder as text) & "my export vCARD3.vcf"
    set openFi to open for access (file destFile) with write permission
    set eof of openFi to 0
    tell application "Contacts"
        repeat with i in input
            write (get vcard of i) to openFi starting at eof as «class utf8»
        end repeat
    end tell
    close access openFi
    return destFile as alias -- return path of the new file (VCARD)
end run

  • How to export contacts (not addresses) from 650 to Mac address book?... .get photos out in the computer expansion card?

    I have a lot of contacts in my Treo650. I would like to export these to the address book of my Mac to switch to an iphone. There was no information on Palm contacts right on Palm addresses. Even if I sync my Treo with the pal Office successfully, there are 0 addresses on Palm desktop to export even though I have hundreds of contacts? I don't see a way to convert contacts to Plam desktop addresses. I could not find contacts on Palm desktop. I would appreciate your help. Jpertsch

    How to make pictures out of 1.0 GB and my Mac computer expansion card? Thanks Jpertsch

    Its ask me who found the answer:

    When the Palm Desktop window opens on the computer, in the upper R corner is an option for 'user '. Don't forget to specify yourself as the user! The default user is not automatically you. Once I made a selection of the user all contacts were there in the address section ready to be exported as a vCard to the Office so that I can then import in Mac "address book".

    I called Palm support 1-877-426-3777. Since I had a support Sprint Treo is in a Sprint. To directly call the Sprint: 800-974-2221 I stumbled on the issue of the 'user' waiting to phone support.

  • iPhone 5 s, cannot sync, can not use iTunes app

    Hi all. I'm really tired. I found the wires on both of my two really big problems, but none of the solutions listed seem to work. First of all, I will explain what is happening and then possible factors that may have led to this State. I use an iPhone with iOS 9.3.5 5s.

    1st edition.

    iTunes will not sync with my phone: when I try to do, I get an error that says: "the iPhone doesn't have to synchronize because the synchronization session could start."

    To resolve this problem, I tried, no appreciable results:

    • Reset the phone
    • Restart iTunes
    • restarting my computer
    • Restore my phone from a previous backup, then the synchronization attempt
    • restore the phone to factory, then a backup settings, and then try to synchronize
    • Praying

    2nd edition.

    Maybe the cause of the first problem, or somehow related, is that the iTunes on the phone app is now unusable. This is especially weird because after all these restorations of all other applications work fine! Mail, various games, Safari, line; they work perfectly (well, as they always have).

    But after each restore, when I try to open the music application, it would break. After restarting the phone, the application opens, but when I try to play a song, or even press any button (such as the passage of the "library" to "playlists" on the bottom panel, the app closed immediately.

    According to some discussions on this issue, I tried (again, no no is done):

    • turn on and off Alternatively 'show music Apple' (under settings > music)
    • By clicking 'Join Apple Music' in the same section to access the app from here (in spite of not having music Apple nor any interest in.)
    • force close the app
    • restart the phone
    • all of the above restorations etc.

    But I can not try one of the other suggestions, because they are all trying to sync the phone. For example, it was suggested to delete all the music that the phone is turned off and then put it back on, but I can't do it because I can't synchronize in the first place.

    Cause probable/factor

    All that being said, a likely cause of all this was that recently I have upgraded to iOS 10. I hated immensely and looked for a way back to iOS 9. I followed this guide, using the first method: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/mobile-phone/how-downgrade-ios-10-ios-9-reinst all-ios-uninstall-3618122 /and it seems to work perfectly, until I checked iTunes and encountered the problem above.

    Now, iTunes has been download iOS 10 in perpetuity for awhile and the "Restore" button is no longer available even on my iTunes (on the computer) screen, so even if I wanted to give up and just go to iOS 10, I can't. I also really, really want to do.

    Please, is it possible to get my phone to the operation just as it used to? Music is one of the most important functions for me. Any ideas beyond what I tried would be greatly appreciated. I just want this thing to work...

    I'm having EXACTLY the same problem, only with an iPhone 6.  All started with iOS 10.  He hated, tried to return to backup iTunes had stopped communicating with my phone, and it had to be updated to 12.5.1, which was beyond the capacity of my OS (10.7.5).  Long story short, I installed 10.9.5 now and updated iTunes to try to fix my phone, but it gives me the above message "synchronization session was able to start.

    Certainly, to pass any message from iTunes is a slight improvement over what WAS the case, but this is ridiculous.  A patch needs to be done and QUICKLY or we would start better see some kind of compensation.  $1600 and $3700 iMac iPhone and neither are what they should be, what they were doing, there is a single day.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not use quick key to search for contact & no history when lock phone

    Hi all

    I just got a new Torch 9800 that is connected to & configured server of my company blackberry. I also use Chinese entry (writing function key) and two problems below, pls help:

    (1) cannot use the quick key to search for contact when using phone, for example to enter a 'P', it will show "Peter" and "Peggy" from the contact list contact. I can only choose after selecting "call for contacts.
    Initially, I didn't know when this function has stopped. After several rounds of tests, more likely, it happened after I switched the input to the Chinese language and has not switched back to English at the same time.

    I found that several KBs can relate to this problem, KB13326, 14372, 04052. And followed the advice but still don't work except if I cold start the phone, i.e. remove the battery. He returned to normal. Once I have change the language again, the problem returns.

    (2) I put my phone to the phone call when it is locked. When the phone is locked, cannot display call log history. A few days before, he was not. Don't know what that value and make this problem.

    In addition, how to cold start the phone without out the battery and install additional appl (company does not download other app).

    Thanks in advance.

    Patrick.

    If your company blocks applications, there is not much you can do, but pray with IT to let you have access to them.

    There is an app called quickpull that can restart the phone, but a battery pull works best to clear the temporary files and the cache.

    Sorry I never messed with the languages.

  • When you select a contact in your contacts list which does not use an iPhone, are the menu options for this contact that is supposed to display text green or blue?

    Hi there, this is not necessarily a problem, but I was wondering if you could awnswer this. I recently adding some new contacts to my contact list, who are both using android phones is said by the way and noticed that options for these contacts, such as: Send Message, share contact, add to Favorites, block this caller, as well as the options of call and text, are all displayed in blue text. I could have sworn at a certain point my contact options were displayed in green text for users of android and blue text only if this contact was using an iPhone. So I looked through my contacts, I needed to update some of my contacts anyway information and discovered that even the options of contact for non-iPhone users were posted in a blue text. I know that iMessage is always displayed in blue, and that regular messages always appear green, it is always the case when I text someone. I know that's really not a big deal, but still when I really could have sworn that the colors are different depending on whether my contacts using iPhones or not. Don't know if a blue font for the selection of these options would have is part of an update or not, or if it was always supposed to be the appearance of these options. If you could tell me what colors your iPhones display when you select a contact from your contact list, and if this would be something that would be possible to change if these colors are supposed to differ, it would be highly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this, once again, I know this is really not very problematic, but I am always curious about it. Thanks to a bouquet.

    This text is blue, no matter that the person has an iPhone, Android phone, landline phone or not phone. Contacts don't 'knows' what kind of phone is connected to the number.

  • Upgrade to El Capitan.  Lost contacts.  Do not use iCloud.

  • Contact ID forget the fingers after 12 hours of not used

    So I had my parents a nice Air 2 iPad with cellular data, a very good product.  The three of us each added that a finger and touch ID worked incredibly for several hours.  However the next day it would not remember neither my mom or dad.  He remembered my thumb, but then that stopped working a few hours later.

    We each added a finger several times.  However, the model is the same.  The Touch ID forget our fingers after about 12-24 hours of not used.

    My brother seems to have no problem with his iPhone 6s.  Its feature is also running iOS 9.1.

    I conjectured that perhaps the problem was that Touch ID did not like several people using the feature to unlock the device even.

    Anyway... now that I have, exclusively, have been using my new iPad (cell) Pro my theory is different.

    The drawing is the same... Contact ID works fine immediately after the addition of a finger, but overnight stops working.

    My current theory is that it works better with the phone and iPad because iPhone users tend to use their devices more continuous than iPad users.

    (at least my parents and myself) iPad users often leave the unused and locked iPad for 12 to 48 hours...

    I think that Touch ID requires frequent use to recycle permanently for the fingers "added".

    Maybe, maybe iOS 9.1 is bug in what concerns the contact ID.  Perhaps a future update may solve the problem.

    Or maybe, simply the cell iPad version has this issue.

    All things considered, I'm not discouraged by these products that they are worth every penny.

    FaceTime with iPad Air and Pro is an amazing experience.

    I submitted comments to Apple: https://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

    I encourage anyone with direct problems nicely their concern to the page your comments...

    One of you, iPad users have good advice?

    Hi Camino fan 2010,

    If you encounter a problem with the contact ID not working not not always on your iPad, follow the steps in this article to troubleshoot issues - ID use Touch on iPhone and iPad.

    Specifically the section for help with the contact ID.

    Sincerely.

  • hp 8600 printer cannot be contacted over the network and the printer is not enabled.

    hp 8600 printer cannot be contacted over the network and the printer is not enabled.

    the HP software installed on the PC on the floor. Print wireless from PC upstairs and the PC in the basement on the network for the last month up to yesterday

    Now to receive above - two error messages cannot be contacted ove RL network and the printer is turned off.

    Reality - the printer IS on and the PC on the floor can print to the printer.  Network on the printer symbol says it is connected to the network.

    a reason any PC in the basement all the cant suddenly find the network and the printer?

    Hello

    The first thing I would do is follow step 6 in this document to set a static IP address: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02817031
    When it askes for the DNS information, enter in Google DNS. Preferred DNS = DNS Alt = 8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8

    This could increase the stability of the network connection to the printer downstairs.  If this does not help, let me know what OS is on the computer causing problem, because that could cause a problem?  Other than that, you can check the quality of the signal you get form the network and see if this can be a problem.

  • Do not use Bus catalyst - typekit exporting does not html

    I read the forums and the so-called solutions. I tried to download directly to can of site that I'm the ftp host. Nothing seems to work.

    If I export the HTML on my local drive and try to download again, it does the same thing. He used to work very well what has changed? I need to go live now! I have all the wrong fonts!

    When I exported to HTML, I used my domain URL name. That did not work. (My domain name is one that is licensed to adobe and I understand that we can host multiple websites with dialing under the license agreement).  So I tried my Client Domain I'm hosting. That no longer works. I tried to post and entered the ftp path that I installed on my hosted client manually.

    What happens here? Please explain how to get this done correctly. I am not using Business Catalyst so it does not apply.

    Ben

    Well now, I guess I should post this as well. It took only 5 tries to do the same thing again and again. He finally works correctly.

    I don't understand why I have a headache. Oh wait, yes I do.

    Problem solved. (this one at least)
