Export Mac Contacts to CSV
Apple's Contacts app exports vCards and nothing else. Exporter for Contacts 2 writes a real CSV file from your Mac contacts instead. Choose the exact fields you want, export entire accounts or single lists, and open the result in Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets or any CRM. No subscription, everything stays on your Mac.
How to export Mac contacts to CSV
- Open Exporter for Contacts 2 and select the accounts, groups or individual contacts you want.
- Determine the fields with the Simple Field Chooser, or the Custom Export Layout Editor for full control.
- Choose CSV as the export format and adjust delimiter and encoding if needed.
- Save the file. It opens in Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets and more.
Take only selected fields into the CSV file
Export only the columns you really need. Multi-value fields such as several phone numbers or email addresses can be split by label or combined into one cell. You decide the column order.
Large data sets are no problem
Whether you have 50 contacts or 15,000, the export runs in a single pass. No clicking per contact and no row limit.
Full privacy guaranteed
Unlike an online converter, Exporter for Contacts 2 collects no data. Everything is converted locally and offline, nothing is transferred anywhere.
