Re: Exporting and importing *.mab to iOS' contacts? [Solution]
Does anyone know how to do it in old, updated Windows XP Pro SP3 to an old, updated (iOS v8.1.3) iPhone 4S? Magic? Or maybe channel Steve for insight since you wrote In iOS v8.1.3 on an iPad Air, Contacts has no import option. So apparently you are not supposed to *need* to import things. Again shakes head Don't understand the appeal. Spoke to my daughter that used to work for Geek Squad where they had to deal with such scenarios. Apple doesn't provide for file transfer of such account information, as you have discovered. What you have to do is on XP create a gmail account (or similar webmail). Import your contacts to the gmail account, then on the iDevice add that gmail account to the device. Convoluted for sure, but it is how you have to do it. Ah, thanks.
