[HOWTO] Import contacts from Apple to /e/ cloud

[andrelam]

First we need a so-called .vcf file, this file can be created using different techniques.

1. On a Mac:
   Open contacts application, click “All Contacts” then go to File>Export. Save the file.
   

2. On Windows/Linux
   Go to icloud.com login and click click “Contacts”
   Go to the lower left of the page and click select all:
   
   Now click Export vCard:
   

Now it wil ask to open or save the .vfc file, choose save:

Ok, now we have a .vcf file.

Next step is to import it on our /e/ drive. Go to your e drive login and click on “Contacts”.
Go to the lower left click on the gearwheel and choose import into:

Select your .vcf file as described above and click open:

Now the contacts will flow in:

When you are logged in on your /e/ phone, the contacts will sync to your phone.

Thank you I did it! Is there any similar process to import calendar, notes, and recordings (voice memos)? I’ve been serching for hours, and I found nothing.

I also received a new android phone after being an Apple iPhone user for 18 years and the pictorial instructions allowed me to easily follow along and transferred all my contacts without a hitch. Thank you for this execellent well documented instruction. The pics very helpful.

Now how do we do the same with the Calendar?
