I don't know how to import my contacts from my Apple i5Phone, into Thunderbird on my new laptop. I was also unable to import my contacts from Outlook on my old laptop. I have iTunes and Thunderbird installed on my new laptop, but I do not see any options to import my iPhone contacts into Thunderbird. I found an application that wanted to charge $30 to do this, and that's crazy money. Can you explain a way to import contacts from an i5Phone into Thunderbird on a laptop?

Install Thunderbird on the machine with your outlook and it will import them on first startup.

see this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hauy9dRBRzo to export to windows address book. It talks about XP, but I assume the iTunes software has not changed that much.

Then follow the instructions on my blog http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/windows-contacts.html

The instruction will add the windows contact to Thunderbird as an address nook.
