Anyone know how to export facebook contacts to gmail?

4 replies
I just exported my facebook contacts to yahoo email (cause its not possible to do it to gmail directly anymore).

Problem is when I go to export FROM yahoo email to CSV format (to import into gmail) - it just exports an EMPTY file with no email addresses.

Apparently, yahoo is blocking exporting contacts that were IMPORTED into it.

Anyone know a way around this?

This isn't for marketing purposes, this is for a private game club (and we have 144 members/names/email addresses).

We used facebook up to this point for keeping in touch with everyone but with facebook's crippling group/event changes/new limits in the ways we can/cannot contact people, we now need to get it into our email system directly for our use.

We REALLY need to know how to get all those names w/email addresses into our gmail account/contacts list.

Thanks for any and all help!

  • Looks like we might just have to retype everyone's email address/info manually.

    Seriously, this is moronic!!!

      Go to address.yahoo.com and click the Facebook icon. A log-in dialog should pop-up, just sign-in with your Facebook information and within seconds, your entire Facebook address will appear inside your Yahoo Mail account. Once the import is done, download a CSV file with the email addresses of all your Facebook contacts to your desktop.

      You can then import the CSV file into Gmail Contacts or any other social media sites where you can connect to your Facebook circle.

    I use GMX mail and it did it all automatically for me. In fact, I didn't even try to do it, they just showed up!

    Even I agree ... GMX Mail can be used to export facebook contacts to gmail in an automated manner.
