How to duplicate a card in CONTACTS?

Yes, merging duplicate cards is very obvious and easy to do.

But I like to open a card and use all entered data for another name.

How can this be done easily ?

Exporting a vCard etc is very cumbersome.

Thank you.

iMac, OS X 10.10

Easily done, not so much...



If this is a one off deal you can simply export the vCard.vcf to your Destop

Change the original card every so slightly so it is different; click open the .vcf on the Desktop to import.


....Then change to the new name.
