AB Transfer is a simple yet powerful application, which imports contact data from external sources into your OS X address book.

You might ask, why not import contact data by hand. Well, that depends... If you need to add one or two new records, just do it by hand. 'AB Transfer' would be of little help.

But if you need to import some other source - contact data from your mobile, from a windows system, a database or exported data of a Yahoo email account - it's simply expensive and error prone to type in all data by hand.

AB Transfer imports your data with just a few clicks. If your know OS X's address book, you already know AB Transfer's user interface.

As always, 'AB Transfer' has a simple streamlined user interface. All in all, you have to follow 5 simple steps to import data from some source:
• Choose a data source
• Define input settings (row format, text encoding and more)
• Preview the pre-processed input data aligned in rows and columns
• Map input fields to address book fields using an address book like view
• And finally import the data

All in all, a process of less than 5 minutes. Thus, 'AB Transfer' is a big time saver.

Here are some key features of "AB Transfer":
  • Maps input fields to address book fields
  • Nice address book oriented user interface for mappings
  • Reads CSV or TAB separated files
  • Trims fields (strip leading or trailing spaces)
  • Allows to import on a per record base [selected records only]
  • Converts to Unicode, Mac Roman and Japanese text encoding
  • Converts input from MS Windows or DOS to Mac
  • Knows about about headings in data sources
  • Allows to export for plaxo.com web address books
  • AB Transfer is multi-threaded, thus more responsive
  • Prints estimate of times to read source file or import into AB
  • Allows to process several files in parallel
    'AB Transfer' maps data to these fields:
    Title
    First, middle and last name
    Nickname, maiden-name
    email (multiple)
    phone, fax, email (multiple)
    homepage
    Country, state, city, ZIP, street
    iChat, AIM and ICQ chat account (multiple)
    Note.

    Limitations:
  • You can import, but certain fields will be crippled.
  • Act! option disabled.

    What's New:
  • Imports MySQL tables directly.
  • Includes database browser, which shows tables, fields of tables and preview for records in table.
  • Allows to define MySQL host name or address, MySQL database name, userID and password.
  • More database systems to be added later.
