Regardless of whether you use Gmail or Yahoo Mail!, or you have an email account from 1997 that you’ve carefully kept and maintained, contacts and all, inevitably you may need to put contacts into your Outlook contacts en masse. If you want to enter each contact one by one, then you’re most certainly welcome to do so, but we recommend importing your main contacts list, whether that is from Thunderbird, or Gmail, or another email service. If you use a webmail service or another, your contacts are most likely there and will need to be imported into Outlook. It would be a lot easier if we could move contact information from another source to Outlook.
Not bad, we already have two contacts we can email but, man, is this time-consuming.
In this case, we’ll choose the latter to save time on typing, after which we’ll click “Save & Close” to reveal our new address book entries. We have a choice between creating a whole new contact or a new contact for the same company. You can also add an image, which is unnecessary, but still a nice touch to the bland, boring address book.Īfter you’re done entering your contact or contacts, you will want to either click “Save & Close” or you can click “Save & New” to generate another contact. Let’s cut to the chase then and make a contact for How-To Geek by filling in the appropriate values.
The first thing that may jump out at you is just how busy it appears but fear not, if you look past the many features on the Ribbon, you’ll see that it’s a pretty standard, run-of-the-mill contacts form. To start, just click the “New Contact” button and it will open a new contact window. In the following screenshot we see a portion of our new address book, which is completely empty, for now. In any event, let’s cover the basics so that if you don’t have an address book to import, you can start adding contacts manually.
