If you have lots of contacts in your Office365 address book you may want to move them into Google Apps.
It takes some time though, so it may only be worth doing if you have a lot of contacts and you have already configured Outlook for Office365. Otherwise you might prefer to just re-create your contacts in Google Apps. This guide shows how to export contacts using Outlook 2010 (Windows) and then import them into Google Apps.
Export Contacts from Office 365
1. Open Outlook and select Contacts. Under the File menu, select Open and then Import (yes, Import).
2. Select Export to a file. Click Next.
3. Select Comma Separated Values (DOS). Click Next.
4. Select Contacts. Click Next.
5. Choose a file name and location for the Contacts export file you are creating. Click Next.
6. In the Export to a File window, click Finish.
Import Contacts Into Google Apps
7. Log into the Google Web App (GWA) and click on Contacts under the Mail drop-down menu in the upper left corner.
8. In the list under Contacts, select Import Contacts..
9. In the Import contacts window, click Choose File.
10. Select the contacts file that you created using Outlook. Click Open.
11. Click Import.
12. Your My Contacts folder now contains the imported contacts.
13. In the list under Contacts, you will see a new contact group called Imported, with its import date and number of contacts.
14. If you want GWA to find potential duplicate entries and merge them, select the Imported folder and click on Find & merge duplicates at the top of the Contacts window.
15. It will present you with a list of possible duplicate contacts as well as individual contacts with duplicate data. For all contacts that you know are not duplicates, uncheck the box next to them. Click Merge.
16. If there are duplicates, GWA will merge them and report that 'The contacts were merged successfully.' If there are no duplicates, you will see the following notification. For more detailed information about merging contacts, see Microsoft's Merging Contacts.
17. If you want to delete the Imported group, select it and, under the More menu, select Delete group. Click OK. This will not delete the imported contacts, only the new group.
Your Office365 contacts should now be in Google Apps.
You can use Microsoft Outlook with just about any email account, including Gmail—but Outlook doesn’t provide a built-in way to sync your Gmail contacts. If you’ve amassed a bunch of contacts in either service, you’ll have to import them from the other manually to use them.
You could re-enter each contact one by one, of course, but we recommend importing all of your contacts in one go. In this article, we’ll demonstrate how to first export your contacts from Gmail into Outlook, and then export from Outlook into Gmail.
How to Export Contacts from Gmail and Import Them into Outlook
To export contacts from your Gmail account, open a browser and log in to your account. Then, click on “Gmail” and then select “Contacts” from the dropdown.
Google is redesigning Contacts and you can try out the Contacts preview (click on “Try Contacts preview” in the menu on the left when viewing contacts in the old version). However, the Contacts preview does not allow you to export contacts yet, so we have to revert to the old version to export our contacts. To do that, click “Go to the old version” at the bottom of the list of options on the left.
Once you’re back in the old version of Google Contacts, click “More” at the top of the page and select “Export” from the dropdown.
Notice, you can export a group, selected contacts, or all your contacts into one of three formats. The export format should be an Outlook .CSV (CSV = Comma Separated Values, which means each field [Name, Address, Phone, etc.] is separated by a comma) file. Select the contacts you want to export, and then select the “Outlook CSV format” option.
Click “Export” to start the export process.
On the Save As dialog box, navigate to where you want to save your contacts CSV file. By default, contacts.csv is entered in the “File name” box as a suggestion for a name, but you can change that, if you want. Then, click the “Save” button.
When the export is finished, you can open the exported .CSV file in Excel and manipulate itby adding addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and other information that will help round out your address book. While this is an optional step, it’s nice to be able to go through and make your contacts neat and consistent.
When you’re ready, it’s time to import your shiny new contacts file into Outlook. Open Outlook and click the “File” tab.
On the backstage screen, click “Open & Export” on the left and then click the “Import/Export” button.
The Import and Export Wizard dialog box displays. Select “Import from another program or file” under Choose an action to perform and then click the “Next” button.
Select “Comma Separated Values” and click the “Next” button.
Now, we need to select the file to import, so click the “Browse” button.
On the Browse dialog box, navigate to the folder where you saved the .csv file, select the file, and then click the “OK” button.
Under Options, decide whether or not you want duplicates to be imported. You can save yourself time later by selecting “Do not import duplicate items” now. Click the “Next” button.
Select “Contacts” in the Select destination folder box under the email account where you want to save your contacts. Then, click the “Next” button.
The last screen on the Import a File dialog box shows you what’s about to happen (“Import ‘Contacts’ from folder: Contacts”) and offers you the opportunity to map any custom fields you might have created in Gmail Contacts.
What does it mean to map custom fields? Simply, some of the fields in .csv file that came from Gmail might not match the destination address book you’re importing to, which means you’ll need to “map” them. As the dialog explains, you need to drag the value in the .csv file on the right, to the field in Outlook on the left that most closely resembles it.
When you’re done mapping fields, click the “OK” button.
Now, click the “Finish” button to complete the import process.
You can see your imported contacts by opening the “People” icon at the bottom of the left pane.
Your Gmail contacts are now available in Outlook.
Now, you can go through and edit to your heart’s content, adding images, mailing addresses, secondary phone numbers, and any other bits of information you think are important and relevant.

Select “Contacts” in the Select folder to export from box under the email account in which your contacts are located. Then, click the “Next” button.
Now, we need to choose a location and specify a name for the exported file, so click the “Browse” button.
On the Browse dialog box, navigate to the folder where you want to save the .csv file. The default name of the file in the “File name” box is contacts.csv, but you can change this if you want. Click the “OK” button to select the file to import.
Click the “Next” button to continue.

Chances are you probably won’t need to mess with this, but it’s good to know in case you import your Outlook contacts and end up with mismatched fields.
When you’re done mapping fields, click the “OK” button.

Click the “Import” button on the Import contacts dialog box to finish importing the contacts from the .csv file.
Your newly imported contacts won’t be merged into your main contacts list—at least not in Gmail—instead, they’ll get their own group.
Ladder only items d2. I know that mods such as PlugY can enable the Runewords, but I haven't seen any mention of the unique drops.Also, are there any other restrictions (missing items, mostly) that can NOT be enabled thus? I read that the following uniques can only be acquired in BNet/Ladder modes:Seraph's Hymn, Metalgrid, Kira's Guardian, Griffon's Eye, Stone Raven, Shadow Killer, Cerebus' Bite, Thunderstroke, Darkforce Spawn, Demonhorn's Edge, Death's Fathom, Andariel's Visage, Leviathan, Tyrael's Might, Shadow Dancer, Rune Master, Death Cleaver, Executioner's Justice, Widowmaker, Wraith Flight, The Reaper's Toll, Tomb Reaver, Heaven's Light, Mang Song's Lesson, Djinn Slayer, Azurewrath, and Warshrike.Now, I only play Single Player mode. Can they drop for me, or is there a way to enable them without 'cheating' (hacking)?
NOTE: If you don’t see your contacts listed yet, refresh the web page.
If you click on the group of imported contacts, you’ll be able to merge them and delete duplicates. It might take a little time to clean them all up, but if things are a total mess, then you can always remove your imported contacts, return to Outlook, and perform the process again, this time either using the map fields function or Excel to fix the problems.
You now have an address book full of contacts that you can immediately start emailing. That said, this is a one-time deal, meaning that when you start making changes to the contacts in one email client or service, the other client or service won’t reflect the changes.
