Hi Justin, In AddressBook2CSV Exporter, if you click on the minus ( - ) sign beside "Export", you can then select what you wish see in the export i.e. email, phones, title, addresses. But yes, I do agree it doesn't do as good a job as others.
Looking in my Applications folder, I actually found that I had a paid copy of "Export Address Book.app, that I must have used ages ago. Gave it another try and was quite pleased with the result, but I'll give your suggestion of 'Address Book Exporter' a try (when I next find time) ;-) Below are details of 'Export Address Book' which I have used before. Export Address Book 1.5.3 <http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/productivity_tools/exportaddressbook.html> About Export Address Book: Can export all the data in your Address Book into a data file. It even recognizes fields with self-defined labels. You can choose between various export formats, like TSV, CSV, HTML table and adapted vCard (in Address Book, you cannot specify which fields to export when you create a vCard - in Export Address Book, you can). You are able to select which contacts to export, which fields from those contacts and how to order them. For later reuse, you can save all of that as a template. In Address Book, you can assign self-defined labels to various fields. Export Address Book can recognize and export fields with self-defined labels. With the built-in Automator action, you can automate exports. <http://www.subclassed.com/software/export_address_book/details> Cheers, Ronni On 03/12/2010, at 5:00 PM, Glenn Nicholas wrote: > > Thanks Justin, Ronni, > > I used this one: http://gwenhiver.net/address-book-exporter.html > With a cut down set of fields (just the ones needed) it was perfect. > > Ronni, I tried the AddressBook2CSV Exporter, but the CSV was unusable. > The multi line fields threw it right off. > > Glenn Nicholas > OM4 > > > > On 3 December 2010 11:38, Justin Davies <m...@justindavies.com.au> wrote: >> Glenn, try using "address book exporter" to export from address book to >> csv.... works for me >> >> Best regards >> >> >> Justin Davies >> >> www.justindavies.com.au >> >> -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> Unsubscribe - <mailto:wamug-unsubscr...@wamug.org.au>
