I can't import contacts of g-mail.

I have been using Firefox for a little over 3 years now and finally decided to switch to Thunderbird after installing XP on WIN7. I loved except! I tried for three days now to export from G-Mail and import them into Thunderbird all my contacts. Nothing works. I found several articles on the Internet (even a couple of Mozilla) that I tried and nothing works. Maybe I'm just a DA? I'm looking at a couple of other software products, but would really like to stay with the Mozilla family. Can someone help me please? Thanks - Hal

Open your Gmail via your browser, click the arrow next to "Gmail" in the upper left corner, select Contacts, click other / Export. If you are directed to open it from old Google Contacts, and then select so more / export in old Contacts. Choose vCard format, then export.

Open address book in TB, tools/import... ... Address book vCard file... Select the contacts.vcf file you exported from Gmail. Close and re - open the address book and find a new address book named "contacts".

If you want to sync rather than import only, consider an add-on like gContactSync.

  • How can I import groups of Windows Mail contacts in Windows Live Mail?

    I work in a small office where we have computers running Windows Vista and using Windows Mail (version 6.0.6000.16388).  We have hundreds of contacts and a few contact groups on these computers.

    A few months ago, we got two new computers running Windows XP and Windows Live mail (version 2009, version 14.0.8089.0726).  Other computers at the office always have Vista and the other version of Windows Mail.

    I was able to export our hundreds of contacts and import them into Windows Live Mail for new computers have all the contacts... but I was unable to find a way to import groups.

    These groups are all very large and comprise mostly/entirely out of contacts that do not have individual contact entries.

    I've been Googling for a solution to this problem.  The page nearest you, that I could find was this:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/3818-Windows-Live-Mail-import-Vista-contacts-contact-groups.html

    I was very discouraged when I saw the big red warning to the top of the page:

    ---------------
    In the Groups of Contact with Vista, only contacts who are also included as normal Contacts will be imported into Windows Live Mail. Contacts that have been created for the Contact Group only will not be imported into Windows Live Mail. You will need to write these down and add them manually in Windows Live Mail.
    ---------------

    This pretty much described my situation exactly, but manually going through all groups, write all contacts, and then import them manually into two separate machines should always and is simply not an option.

    Are there really no other way I can get these groups into Windows Live Mail?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much!

    I have not actually tried this, but I think this method will work.

    1. get a free Live ID (or @hotmail.com or @live.com).

    2. install Windows Live Mail on Vista computer. During the installation, it will offer to signature with a Live ID. Do.

    3. the first performance of Windows Live Mail, it will be important to all contacts from Windows Mail. Give him enough time to synchronize all contacts with the web version of this Live ID.

    4. open Windows Live Mail on the new computer and then connect with the same Live ID. The automatic synchronization process will transfer in all contacts of the web version of this Live ID.

  • How can I add contacts to a mailing list if they do not have an email address?

    I try to add a contact to a mailing list and the contact has an e-mail address. In the mailing list, it says "type email addresses to add to the mailing list." I do a fake e-mail to those contacts who do not?

    If you insist on using a mailing list for something it is not designed for, I guess the answer is Yes.

    Address books are contacts and provide contacts without email addresses. As stated previously, the mailing lists are to create groups for sending group emails. For a contact to be on a mailing list they must exist in the address book in which you create the list.

    A better solution if you try to create categories of contacts is to create a new address book.

    Is there a way I can import these 200 contacts to my new iPhone? He said the technician of Apple that is not possible. Any help please?

    Thank you

    If Apple does not know of a way, then it's almost certainly not possible.  Personally, I do not know how you could do that.

    I use Mail as my electronic agent main Opera on Windows XP Pro SP3. Soon, I'll install Windows 7, but first I'm configuring Thunderbird. (I already use Firefox.) I > store 4500 emails in my Opera Mail, and I was not able to find a way to import them into TB. In Opera Mail, for each mailing list and label (view), I want to import into TB, I first exported each of the opera in a *.mbs file in one directory of Windows. Now, I have several *.mbs files, one for each mailing list, or a label. I want to import into folders separated from TB. How can I accomplish this?

  • I need help importing my old Windows contacts in the Mail application

    Windows mail for windows 8

    I just want my old windows mail contacts to people or post... I have saved the files to an expansion disc... but can't find how to put the files in the people... where can I find out how to do this?

    Hi Ellentavino.

    You can't import contacts of the PPP to Win 8 people directly.  However, if you go to http://people.live.com and choose manage it gives you the ability to import Outlook or a CSV file.

    Once these contacts are imported - it might take a while but they will eventually be replicated down to the people app in Windows 8.

    See you soon.

  • Windows Live Mail - import contacts very slow

    Import contacts Windows Live Mail is very very ssssloooooooooowwwww.

    I am importing approximately 2300 contacts from a CSV file created using the WLM on the same computer export function, until I had to do a complete Windows re - install. The export function created the file quickly enough. Importation is happening now for 15 hours and has just exceeded 2000 contacts so I guess there are still a few hours or more.

    It's pretty extreme and ridiculous! Am I doing something wrong or missed something? In the previous mail clients such as Outlook Express and Outlook, this task took a few seconds.  It looks like a huge not backward, even a computer in the era of steam dispose of such a simple and banal mission without imposing its only megabytes of ram.
