import an address book file, no contacts Hatem
As it is a problem for at least 5 years. Apple still has not prepared to be resolved (too busy I think to make money on iphones and whatnot).
In any case, to back up my address book. Imported into my address book on another Mac. Surprise, surprise, no contacts.
So, how can we get the addresses from an address book on one Mac to another... Yes, iCloud, but that's not the answer because Apple export/import function address apparently does not.
Any ideas out there?
Thank you.
Clarifying question - did you export your contacts from the first computer and copy the file to the second computer?

. MAB imported address book file is empty in Thunderbird, why?
I'm using Linux Mint 17. I recently updated from a previous version. I tried to import my old address book, but when I open it there is no information there. I can open it in my text editor, and they're all here! What is the problem? It seems that all online tips are for Windows. I'm using Linux! The only address book file is .mab, so how do I do this?
OK, I just closed and reopened Thunderbird. Voila, addresses were there. DUH! Problem solved, sorry!

How to import my address book from Outlook?
I have Windows 7 and Outlook on the same hard drive in Linux
Hi, please find a manual to export the contacts here at Microsoft:
https://support.Office.com/en-us/article/export-contacts-625336d9-14e2-49a8-909D-02648989e4f0

After saving the file, you can import them into Thunderbird:
Open Thunderbird, go to the address book, choose 'Tools', 'Import', choose "Address books", choose "Text file", click on 'Next' and after importing, click on "Finish".That should do it.

Several "personal address book" in the Contacts
As you can see from the screenshots, I have several "personal address book" in the Contacts. Right click on any address book of Contacts and remove it is gray. I have a gMail address book, a special group, I created and collected, too.
So I have several abook.mab displaying in Windows Explorer; one is 56KO, others are 2kmb. If I move the files, they are recreated everytime I run the application of TB.
It started when I restored a profile in a clean install of TB. How can I solve this further?
No additional input or suggestion so I backed up my address book, uninstalled TB, reinstalled TB and imported the .csv backup. This solves the problem, as can be expected.
Too bad, it was necessary that I had to create, download, and reset all.

Can I import my address book in a web-based program
I have aspire accommodation and impossible to import my address book. I have many contacts to do individually. She brought my mails and files, but not my contact list.
Most email providers have an export feature and it would export the addressbook. You will need to get directions from your provider.
In Thunderbird, the import option is on the menu bar in the address book under Tools.
Here are the instructions for Yahoo, but they should be similar for most providers. -

How to import my address book in Adobe send?
How to import my address book in Adobe send?
Hi propacific,.
There is no way to port your address book in Adobe send, but if you use the sending by means of Adobe Reader, you can access your local address book. And, if you are on Windows, you can use the Outlook plug-in to send to Adobe, so you can send directly from Outlook. You can download the plugin here: send large files online - sharing, control, track & Manage | Sending Adobe

Are you sure that your question is about Firefox and not on Thunderbird?
Firefox does not use a file history.mabSee http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Thunderbird

You can ask questions about the program of Thunderbird on MozillaZine Thunderbird Support forum.

synchronization of address book with Google Contacts
Palm said that we can synchronize the address book with Google Contacts, but I can't. It is supposed to be a preference in address book which allows you to choose Google, but I can't. After reading the Apple forums, I feel that this feature is available only when an iPhone is plugged.
If it is actually feasible, what is the procedure?
(Mac OS 10.5.7 AddressBook 4.1.2.) My Google sync works in iCal/Pre matching.
THX.
You are referring to the synchronization of your desktop Mac address book to Google, correct Application?
You will need to hack a bit to allow that, without an iPhone:
http://Lifehacker.com/393855/enable-Google-contact-sync-without-an-iPhoneiPod-touch
It does not require that you used an iPod before on your mac. Since the front looks like an iPod, you should be good to go.
(I seriously need to upgrade to 10.5. Sheesh.)

Windows in Windows XP address book has been replaced by Windows Contacts in Windows 7.
If you have performed a custom installation of Windows 7, please visit:how restore personal after having performed a custom Windows Vista or Windows 7 installation
To get the address book from Windows XP to Windows 7, you need to export the list of contacts of the Widnows XP computer first and then import the file to Windows 7. If you want to export the address book from Windows XP and import it into Windows 7, please see the following steps:
a. launch Outlook Express in Windows XP and click on file > export > address book
b. export the address book to a text (.csv) file
c. Select Save the location and all the contact information you want to export, and then click Finish.
To import contacts in Windows 7, go to the link below and follow the steps:

Note: You may only be able to restore the data from Windows XP to Windows 7 If you have performed a custom installation of Windows 7 without formatting the hard drive. If you have formatted the hard drive during the installation of Windows 7, you cannot restore the data.
I hope this helps. Let us know the results.
