Migrating contacts from Windows to Mac

One of my friends decided to make a Macbook.  the only thing that worries him is to get all contacts in Contacts on the Mac and the windows 10 machine.  Anyone who can help?

Hello, Nils1406.

Please visit Apple support communities.

I understand you want to help your friend to move contacts from a Windows computer to a MacBook.  There are several ways that this is possible and I will include a few options.  Without knowing how those contacts are managed on the PC or if they are be synchronized directly with a personal information manager, I can't recommend the easiest option.  Your friend has the possibility of using the Migration Wizard, which will transfer the personal data and files from one to the other.

Move your data from a Windows PC on a Mac

They can also allow iCloud transfer of information from one device to the other wireless.

iCloud: what is iCloud?

Implement the iCloud on all your devices

Hope this helps

    You can exchange languages/platforms for a newer version product if you follow the instructions on the following link:

    l http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/Policy-Pricing/Order-Product-Platform-Language-swap.htm

    You can do this only once, so you lose the license for Windows if you exchange for a Mac.

    You must contact Adobe Support by chat to make sure that they always support platform for CS6 swaps.  It's getting a little old and it wouldn't surprise me if they drop this option.

  • How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail on XP

    I searched for this answer for the last 2 hours.  All the answers are for Vista & Windows 7.   How to export my Windows Live Mail addresses so that I can use in Thunderbird?  I'm moving to Thunderbird because quick view is off & on display unread messages.  They watch for a few days, then stop broadcasting.  Then repeat for a few days, then stop again.  This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.
    But back to my original question.  How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.  When I click on the file to export and then export, there is nothing highlighted.   So, how can I get my contacts?  Or is there another way to do otherwise than through WLM >

    Thank you

    This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.

    There has been no update for WLMail 2009 since April 2010. Update do you think has affected your quick view?

    How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.

    Open the contacts window by clicking the address book at the foot of the folders pane. On the file menu, click export , and then select comma separated (CSV) values. If you don't see the menu bar, press ALT.

    Note that the last statement on the help page (Export contacts) is wrong: by dragging the window contacts contacts on the desktop doesn't create any kind of file. In version 12 and 15, this produces a vCard (.vcf) file for each contact, but not in the version 14 (WLMail) 2009.

    Windows Live Mail has its own support at the Windows Live Solution Centerforums. Please address any other question you may have on one of the forums on the right side of this page. You are probably asked to give your version of WLMail and Windows so that the answer may be more accurate. In WLMail to find your version of the software, a press on ALT - H. If it doesn't show you the version and the build number, press on escape to two times, and then Alt - F B.
