Evolution - import contacts not working.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I wanted to copy the contacts from my F17 work PC to my home PC. Both
use Evolution 3.4.3. I could see that I could save the contacts as a
vcard, so I did this. I then transferred the file to my home PC.

On my home PC, when viewing 'contacts' I told it to import a single
file, and gave the name of the vcard file. However, when I clicked
'apply' evolution showed a window that looked like it should be a
progress bar, but nothing showed up. 'top' indicated that evolution
wasn't doing anything. I cancelled the 'import', and tried again. Same
thing, nothing happened.

I created a new address book and asked evo to import the contacts into
that. Same thing - nothing happened. I then asked evo to delete the
created address book, which it said it would do but didn't. I have
stopped/started evo several times to see if it simply needed to be
restarted. I am now left with an address book I can't delete and no
contacts in any folder.

Anyone any ideas about this, or is it simply broken?




John.
