I run Outlook (Office 365/ Microsoft 365) both in MacOS and Windows (virtualized), but mainly on the Mac. Available Contact fields differ somewhat between the two, but I assume that the data still is saved in the cloud. I have not been able to export contacts into a CSV file on the Mac side, and unfortunately not all fields are exportable in Windows. I have even tried (in Windows) listing all my contacts with all fields showing as columns, then selecting all of the contacts and fields to copy into Excel. However, the fields do not remain correctly lined up in Excel after copying.

I previously used ContactGenie (which I loved) to export but it is no longer compatible with Microsoft 365.
1. Does anyone know of utilities or VBA code that can export as well as re-import all fields?
2. Are there any third-party applications that can sync all contact fields to an IOS (iPhone or iPad) - for example, the "Referred By" field is very important to us, but I cannot access it while using Apple products. All CRMs that I have investigated only allow a subset of Contact fields to sync.
3. Does Microsoft provide any tools, APIs, etc that would allow a 3rd part party programmer to access and sync ALL fields?
 
However, the fields do not remain correctly lined up in Excel after copying.
This should only happen in multiple line fields when you copy and paste. But... for contacts, all fields should be exported (except custom fields). What fields are not exported?


3. no.
 
In the message, on the Message tab, in the Names group, click Address Book. In the Address Book list, click the address book in which you want to search for names. For the Search box, click More columns. Type the information, or part of the information, that you are searching for.

Hope You Find This Useful,
Peter
 
BTW - forgot these earlier:
1. Does anyone know of utilities or VBA code that can export as well as re-import all fields?
I have some VBA code samples, but they don't cover every field. Adding the fileds would be easy enough, but you need to do it. :)
This one imports the calendar but would be easy enough to fix to use contacts

Export - this is email but gain, its not a biug deal to change the item type.

and the no-export way -

No, none that I'm aware of.

I have not been able to export contacts into a CSV file on the Mac side
The mac version does not support exporting to CSV. Outlook on the web can export, but I don't believe it exports all of the fileds in outlook desktop (because on the web version doesn't support all of the field).
