Hi, in this video we're going to show
you a tool you can use to edit and
create vcards or VCF files. So these are
typically used to provide contact
information kind of like a virtual
business card. So once you create one,
you could send them to other people like
an attachment and email and then they
can import them into their contacts and
have all of your information. So, if
you're always working with these vcards
and you want to uh manage them, edit
them, create new ones, uh you could use
this tool to do so. All right. So, it's
called Bobsoft VCF editor. So, if you go
to their website,
uh they have the free version that they
call the trial that allows you to manage
them, you know, edit them. But if you
want to export them to a BCF file or a
CSV file, uh you'll need the licensed
version. So, it's only $19, but it gives
you all these features. And then you
don't have to see the nag screen. You
can use it for commercial use and it has
uh lifetime free updates. All right. So
I have it installed here and I have a
couple VCF files. You could either click
on load vcards or just drag and drop
them in there. And you can see when we
click on them, we have the information.
And if you click on the pencil, you
could edit the address
and then add notes and all kinds of
other fields here. And let's say you
wanted to add a picture. You can just
click on it here. Load image.
Find the picture you want to use here.
Save it and you're done. All right. So
now, let's say you wanted to export
these to import them into another app.
If you go up to contact here, you could
clear everything out, make a new one,
uh, load again, uh, export to CSV or
export to VCF file. So let's say we
wanted to do it for Outlook.
Stick it on the desktop here. We'll call
this Outlook contacts.
Okay, let's say we wanted to do it for
Gmail as well.
Okay, so now we have our files here. And
then before we import them, let's do
just a VCF card here. So let's do a new
one. for example,
call this guy
Joe Brown.
All right. So, let's add an image for
Joe here.
Let's just give him a phone number.
Call that good.
All right. So, let's go into Outlook for
Windows. Then we'll do it for the real
Outlook. and then we'll do it for Gmail.
Okay. So, let's go to import contacts.
So, you can add a contact manually or if
we go to import contacts.
Looking for a CSV file. Outlook
contacts. Import.
Okay. Let's kind of go in and out here.
All right. So, we have Bob and Maria,
but you'll see it doesn't copy over the
picture, which is because we're
exporting it to a CSV file. If we were
to do it as a vCard, then it would,
which we'll do in a second here.
All right. So now, if we went to edit
Bob, for example, here, you can see we
have all of his information there.
All right. So now let's do the same for
the real Outlook. This time we have to
go to file,
open, and export, import, export,
import from another program or file.
Here's the vCard option, which we'll try
next.
CSV
desktop here. Make sure we got the right
one.
Add it to contacts.
Finish.
All right. So now you see we have that
here. All right. So now we'll do the
vcard except I forgot to export it
first. So let's go back here. It's Joe
Brown here. Contact. export to vcard
on the desktop.
Okay,
same process here.
This time we'll choose import a vcard.
Pick Joe Brown, our new guy here.
Okay, took a second for the uh picture
to pop up there. So, we have the picture
there. All right, so that's the vcard
method here. All right, so now let's go
to Gmail
to Google contacts here and let's try
importing contacts into Gmail. So,
import, select file. You can do a VCF
card, too, or we're going to do the one
from the CSV file here.
import.
Okay, so you can see what Gmail does
here or Google contacts.
It puts it with a label with the date
you imported it. So what you can do is
if you click on the trash can, it'll
keep the contacts and delete the label.
Just kind of put all the contacts
together if you have other ones that is.
Or you can have it delete the contacts
and the label. So we're just going to
click on delete for the first option
here. So now they're up in our context
and we don't have that extra label.
All right. So as you can see, it's a
pretty useful tool. Uh so if you're
managing a lot of vcards or creating
them on a regular basis, it's not a bad
way to go. All right. So I'll put a link
in the description where you can
download VCF editor and you can try it
out for yourself. All right. Thanks for
watching and be sure to subscribe.
