Contacts * Can I duplicate a card and then edit the info?

The simplest way, until Contacts has a "Duplicate," is to the open the Contact that you would duplicate, if you could, then go to File >Export>Export vCard you will be asked to designate a destination, (I usually chose Desktop) click Save, (I usually verify that a vCard is now on my Desktop) then edit the the Contact with the changes to produce a new Contact. Click Done. Now you have the new Contact. Your original is where you saved it; so go to File>Import select the vCard where you saved it then click Open and your original is returned to Contacts. Since Importing does not move the vCard, you can now reedit the original, if you need more Contacts that use much of the same information as the original.

Yes, I too miss that feature.

Export the the vCard you want to duplicate with the File pull-down.

Save As a different name.

Import it with the File pull-down

Review Duplicates, Keep Both

Edit and click done.

Hope this helps.

Sorry - I left something out. Check the "Company" box (step 2 below). Simple. Who would have thought?

1. Input the info that you will use in multiple cards 2. select "Company" box under the address. This gives priority to the company name rather than the individual. 3. Copy;Paste. You should now have a duplicate! 5. Edit the detail. 6. Copy; Paste. 7. Etc.

If it doesn't work its probably because you forgot to check the Company box.

Copy, Paste, Believe it or not presto you have a duplicate! Now edit the detail.

Unbelievable there isn't just a "duplicate card" drop down which would be more intuitive. Either no one at apple uses Contacts or the employee suggestions box hasn't been looked at in 32 years.

simple solution.

Thanks
