Outlook: import Facebook contacts

Importing your Facebook contacts into Outlook is not difficult, but it is quite complex. We'll show you how it's done.

Import Facebook contacts into Outlook

• Unfortunately, you can no longer simply transfer your Facebook contacts to Outlook. Facebook stopped this function a few years ago. You only have to collect the data manually and enter it in Outlook.
• To do this, open the Facebook website and visit the desired profile. Go to the "Info" category above and "Contact information and general information" on the left. If the address, telephone number and e-mail address are not given, you can ask for them (see picture).
• Then open Outlook and switch to your contacts at the bottom left. If you right-click on a contact, you can edit the information. If a contact is not yet listed, click on "New contact" at the top left.
