[nfbcs] Importing Outlook-Generated *.CSV file into Gmail?

[Steve Jacobson]

Debee,

I don't know if you have dealt with this, but I have just gone through a
rather frustrating experience moving BrailleNote Mpower contacts to a
BrailleNote Touch, and the process would be the same for the Apex.  This
involved importing into Gmail and then syncing the BrailleNote Touch with
that Gmail account.  Although I have completed this process now. Do you
think any of the Android apps would have been useful for this?  The
BrailleNote Touch is an Android device.  Humanware was of virtually no help
on this unless one only used the name and email address, and I'm considering
putting together some of what I learned so other customers don't have to do
what I feel Humanware should have done to begin with.  However, your
comments may offer a better alternative than restructuring data and
importing it into Gmail as I did.  The information out there on importing
into Google is not very complete and there are many complaints in forum that
Google has not documented this process very well.  

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Try Firefox and NVDA, latest versions of both.  It's true pages keep
changing but that worked for me a few weeks ago.

You can also find an app that lets you manage contacts on gmail; there are
several for Android and iOS. If you have an iDEVICE,  Applevis has some good
choices for accessible apps. Once they import your CSV, many will export
direct to gmail, saving you the hassle of inaccessible gmail sites.

I have also written a guide for Applevis on dealing with CSV files and
Windows contacts, because I don't use outlook at home and needed to get the
contacts in to Thunderbird. Though this might not help you directly it may
help others reading this post; search the guides on Applevis for Windows.

Has anyone had success importing their Outlook Contacts to Gmail using IE11?
I am using Windows 7/JAWS 17 and I cannot find the More or Import elements
on the Gmail Contacts page as indicated in the instructions for importing
from Outlook.
Thanks.
