Import Gmail contacts into Apple Mail.app
Submitted by alanhogan on May 6, 2007 - 2:32am.
Tip | Apple | contacts | email | Gmail | Mail.app | OS X
Want to import your contacts from Gmail into Apple's Mail app? Despite the fact Mail has no “Import contacts” feature, it’s actually easy.
There is a tutorial to follow (it's the easiest I've ever seen) here. You will be using this free program.
[Edit:] Note, however, that when I followed these directions, the full name of Gmail contacts became the first name of Mail.app / Address Book contacts, not a huge problem, but it meant seaching by last name was broken.
Page Outdated! Comments disabled!
As do many people using Drupal to power their website, I get a lot of comment spam, and Drupal's spam filter is horrible! So I have permanently disabled comments on old.alanhogan.com. Try the new version of this page (which may not exist, but should if this page actually has content besides a list of other articles).
Consider using my contact form to get in touch. And remember that AlanHogan.com is live and old.alanhogan.com is here as a backup only, and a stopgap measure because some AlanHogan.com functionality is not implemented yet.
