I was given a Kindle Fire for my birthday, and I'm struggling with it, having been used to the simplicity of Apple devices. :red:
I'm trying to import my Contacts from Outlook, into the Kindle, but I've tried several methods and none seem to work. Can anyone recommend the best way to do this?

Thanks Glenn. I'd seen the first link already, but it seems you have to save each contact individually in Outlook as vCards, and as there are over 300, I was hoping for a less time consuming option.
The other suggestion there was to forward contacts as business cards, but for some reason, I don't seem to have that option in my Outlook 2007. :dunno:
If you can get in the Play store, or if Amazon have it in their store, try this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.psencik.simple&hl=en
OK, it's charging up at the moment, but will check it out. :thumb:
Sadly, it doesn't seem as though I have access to the Play store, and it wasn't in the Amazon store, but I've now solved the issue anyway.
The reason I didn't have the forwarding option for business cards was that I didn't have a mail account set up in Outlook, as it isn't my default mail client. I set one up, then could forward business cards, so I selected all my contacts, all of which appeared as vCard attachments, which I then copied to the Kindle.
I synchronise contacts using gmail/ google so that they appear on iOS and Android
Yeah, I guess that would have been the easy way. I just have this thing about Google having all my contacts.

You're not the only one :)
Google also [now] have a thing with all your contacts on it... ;D
Not sure that it has, as I've only used my Amazon account on the device.
