I have a free license for eM Client I use at work, and a personal free license I use on my home laptop. I’ve just replaced my laptop but I am having trouble figuring out how to import from contacts from my work machine to the laptop. I did export the contacts from the work machine to a .vcf file and when I tried to import it on the laptop the file wasn’t available to select from the Desktop where I had saved it. Any tips?
The Import feature imports from a folder and not a file. The file must be within that folder .
.
So the file that you created on your work machine copy it to a distiinct folder on your laptop
ex c:\temp-contact make sure the file within the folder has the extension vcf
Have nothing else within the folder
Then Import
Menu file import
Then follow the prompts to complete
Thanks for the reply. I’ve done as you suggested but the file still doesn’t appear to select. It is a .vcf file. When I go to Menu-File-Import I only have the options to import from Application or File, not folder. I am selecting “Contacts as VCard” from the file section.
After you select Menu File Import
You are presented with screen asking what kind of application or file in your case Contacts as v card vcf Select this
Then Select the NEXT button on bottom to proceed to next page
The next screen ask you to select " FOLDER" it will not show any file. Select the folder that it resides in using the browse window
Select where you want it to go deafult is Contacts Then select FINISH at the bottom to finish
There are several screens each needing you to click the next button on the botom of screen
Did you think about any online accout, say google contacts or own cloud? All contacts would keep in sync over smartphone, fritzbox, emclients anywhere…
