About TntWare
If I'm missing this in this or another post just point me there. I don't use outlook. I'm on a mac, using google contacts (cru.org not free gmail), and an android phone. Is there a way to get my TNT contact data to my phone without using outlook? And is there a way to isolate my TNT contacts from all of my other google contacts? Thanks!
Hi Billy, TntConnect can export contacts to a CSV file. And I believe Google can import contacts from a CSV file. If you can group or tag those contacts to keep them separate, I'm not sure.
I really love what I am seeing in the TNT Connect Mac software...but I have to be able to get the basic contact info, including Referre by and Google "Group" multiple assignments each contact back into Google Contacts and thus to my phone. Do I really have to stop using TNT Connect for Mac, and do it all with outlook and TNT on Windows under VM Ware fusion?
Unfortunately, as of TntConnect 3.4, it still only syncs with Outlook on the PC side.
I just found a mac-friendly workaround for editing contacts on iOS!
Perhaps others have used this before, but I'm sharing in case this can help anyone else. I realized that the Mailchimp sync in tntConnect is a two-way street. The Mailchimp iOS app can add/edit contact info that can then be synchronized back into TNT.
One drawback is that Mailchimp requires an email address for every contact, so any contacts without an email address can't be added via synchronization or with their app. But once you turn on mailing address and phone number syncing, Mailchimp will poll for those fields when adding a new contact (though you can leave them blank). Any changes to existing contacts will be imported back into tntConnect, even matching a new mailchimp contact with an existing TNT contact. Conflicting data created an "Investigate" task to show that information was updated and allow you to commit the changes in TNT.
While this doesn't help with calendars or recording email history, for me, this is enough functionality to prevent me from installing parallels/outlook on my mac just for the synchronization.
@herewego, thanks for sharing this cool tip!
