Finding the Easiest Way to Manage Contacts with Yahoo & P3

SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on optimizing contact management using Yahoo, P3, and PWS. Users should first enter their contact information in P3, then sync it with PWS before exporting to Yahoo to streamline the process. To avoid duplicates during uploads, users should explore settings in their email client, as Yahoo's specific options for handling duplicates were not confirmed. Additionally, backing up P3 data to an external device is crucial to prevent data loss.

Even though I have only done 10 shows now I feel as though I spend endless amts of time updating guest/host info. I think it's me and I am missing something and doing too many steps...I thought I was bright but obviously tonite not the brighest crayon in the box...

I have a Yahoo email acct for PC biz use.
I have a PWS.
I use P3.

From the experts, where should I first enter my information (contacts) in order to just simply keep copying them over? Also, is there a way to not always have duplicates when I upload from P3 to yahoo? I'm spending just as much time deleting duplicates. I must be making more work for myself...

Where there's a will there's a way!

Thank you for any insight!
 
I would start with P3. From there, you can sync your PWS, and then export to Yahoo. As for the duplicates, I don't know for sure about Yahoo. I use Outlook, and when I import the file it asks me if I want to create duplicates, keep the old ones, or replace with the new ones.
 
just a reminder...be sure to back up your p3 to another device other than your computer. a couple of months ago, my hard drive CRASHED and i did not back up except on my computer. all was lost except my contacts on my pws. just thought i would pass along a piece of advice.
