[QUOTE="durango, post: 1648230, member: 98789"] OK, I'm back with some comments and questions. I hope you will bear with me, because I really don't want to screw this up. First of all, my old phone won't export contacts in VCF format. So I will have to manually enter those names/numbers. And, as you advised, I prefer to do this on my Mac keyboard. But I don't know exactly how to do this.When I click on the Contacts icon on my Mac, I get a screen that shows I didn't have any iCloud cards but that I did have Contacts on my Mac; however, these Mac Contacts are the ones for my email and they don't include phone numbers. Which brings me to a real concern. There seems to be two Contacts list, and I don't want to get the two mixed up. There is the list that contains all the names and email addresses. I imported this months ago from my Win 7 PC. When I click on the Contacts icon on my Mac, this email list is shown under 'All on My Mac". Then there is the list of phone numbers that I'm trying to get into my new iPhone6. These two lists are different, and I don't want the email address list on my phone. Just to experiment with your suggestion, I typed in 7 names and phone numbers using my Mac, and these appeared as iCloud cards. But now I'm afraid to sync with my iPhone for fear that I will screw up my email list. So what exactly will happen when I sync? Thanks much.......... [/QUOTE]
