NEILSMITH I downloaded this app an it lasted all of 3 minutes before I had to chuck it out. I exported and uploaded my contacts to Google just fine except for NO CATEGORIES (clients, personal, active sales prospects, fire dancers, etc). It also would not import phone numbers tagged as "Other" from Address book which means many extra contact numbers I had for people did not go over at all. Then I made a change to a contact on my desktop, exported the address book and then uploaded the updated address book file to Google, and it made a DUPLICATE RECORD on Google - one with the old record and one with the one I just updated. So that means every time I alter a bit of info in a contact, Google will recognize it as an extra record instead of updating the old one. I'm altering info all the time, so this obviously will not work for me and makes this app absolutely useless.

A to G does the trick. I needed to port my extensive mail list from my Mac to GMail, and A to G helped me do it in minutes. When it was moved to GMail I had the chance to weed out all the addresses I had not used in some time, and to clean up the rest. It's a freebie, but it is invaluable. Thank you for the effort it took to produce it.
First off, I can't believe nobody commented, rated or even thanked the dev for this little gem!
I've tried gMailContacts, a shareware (limited to email address exports prior to buying) that makes multiple entries for each email address (meaning if your contact has a home and work email, their name will appear twice in your gMail contact list)
Not only did A to G get this portion of it right, but it also successfully exports all the other fields which gMailContacts charges you for.
In a nutshell, it's FAST, EASY, FREE and it WORKS BEAUTIFULLY!
A big THANK YOU to the dev nailing this one on the head!

A to G successfully transferred most phone numbers from my Apple Address book to Gmail contacts, except phone numbers for businesses. Any advice on how to fix this?
Downloaded the app. Tried to run it and the pop up says "Donate" or "Quit", I donate some funds through paypal (no free anymore I guess), then try to run and same pop up comes up... I'm in a loop and not will to keep donating, so the "Quit" button is the only option.

As a back up mail program I use GMail and have always struggled with not being able to have my addresses in it.
Thanks to this wonderful A to G program I now have all 912 people right in Gmail ready for me when I travel.
thank you AGAIN to the great developers of this product.
