vCard Extensions to WebDAV (CardDAV) is an address book client/server protocol designed to allow users to access and share contact data on a server.

The CardDAV protocol was developed by the IETF and was published as RFC 6352 in August 2011.[1] CardDAV is based on WebDAV, which is based on HTTP, and it uses vCard for contact data.[2]

Google Contacts Gmail

  1. Dec 25, 2020 How to set up iCloud mail, contacts, and calendars on iPhone or iPad. If you're looking to set up an iCloud account on your iPhone or iPad, you'll want to follow the steps here (Don't worry, despite the title, there are steps here if you already have an Apple ID).
  2. I am seeing a problem with syncing contacts between BB10 phones (Z30, Z10) and Gmail. These problems are occurring with more than one Gmail account. In two cases when a new sync was attempted, only 140 out of 1200 contacts were brought into a Z30 from Gmail. On a Z10, with a different Gmail account, I am getting the message: An unexpected problem occurred with CardDav:Gmail.

History[edit]

Go to Google Contacts. Select one of the following: – A single contact: Check the box next to the contact name. – Multiple contacts: Check the boxes next to all the contacts you want to export. – All contacts: Check the box next to any contact and in the top left, click Selection Actions All. Learn how to configure, start and use Google Contacts and CardDAV Contacts Sync. SyncPenguin provides real-time two-way and one-way synchronizations and migrations between business tools. Request custom sync, migration, data uploading or automation.

CardDAV was proposed as an open standard for contact management in August 2011. It became known as a synchronization protocol in iOS 7, among other things, and is now also supported by Gmail, where it replaces the no longer supported ActiveSync standard.

In October 2013, the standard received an update that made it possible to capture higher-resolution contact images and achieve lower data consumption.[3]

Specification[edit]

The specification has been proposed as a standard by IETF as the RFC 6352 in August 2011 by C. Daboo from Apple Inc.

I recently updated to version 78 of Thunderbird. I was using gContactSync (which is no longer compatible). I have switched to TBSync.

Now my question:

In my Thunderbird Address Book. I have my contacts in groups/folders. i.e. Family, Friends, and Business. In my Google account I have the same set up but with labels. I had to do a lot of messing about to get gContactSync to maintain the groups.

I am concerned if I turn on the sync in TBSync for the Address Book that it will trash one or both the address books in Thunderbird and in Google! Would this happen?

Also what is the difference (in TBSync) between 'Contacts' and 'Address Book'? Contacts seems to be read only.

What Is Google Carddav

Thanks.
