This method uses a roundabout way to export your Lotus Notes address book and has three prerequisites.
- You must have a mobile device that syncs with your Lotus Notes address book (i.e. a BlackBerry device.)
- You must have a Gmail or Google Apps account with Google.
- Your mobile device must be supported by Google’s Mobile Sync software. (Click here to check)

1. Install Google Sync for your mobile phone.
2. Configure Google Sync to connect to your Gmail account.
3. Sync your contacts.
4. Log in to your Gmail account and view your Contacts.
5. Click Export and select an option.

**Remember – Google Sync is a BETA product. Please be sure to back up your mobile device before installing Google Sync.

I don’t know how the Notes URL breaks down. My guess is that the unique identifier for the document you’re trying to reference is the last ID in the URL to the far right.
Hope this helps!
Any thoughts on how a large organization can mass migrate Lotus Notes email/calendar/contacts to Google Apps (Premier version)? Currently Google Apps doesn’t support migration from Lotus Notes.
Found two 3rd party products that seems to offer migration:
http://www.connectedsw.com/Overview/57263
http://www.isrus.com/so_it_solution_googleapps_mail_mig.php
Has anyone used them? If so, how did the migration go?
How a Notes URL breaks down is:
notes://serverName/dbname(or replica ID as above)/viewName(or universal ID as above)/documentName from view(or universal ID as above)
So:
notes://server1/mydb.nsf/lookupView/keyedDocument?opendocument – is an acceptable notes URL
But so is:
notes://server1/65256F6D002390C1/DABA975B9FB113EB852564B5001283EA/280D21651A3F53EC6525757E001E819D
Or:
notes://server1/65256F6D002390C1/DABA975B9FB113EB852564B5001283EA/280D21651A3F53EC6525757E001E819D?OpenDocument
If a NotesURL stops at different points, then they are different types of URLs
DBLINK:
notes://server1/65256F6D002390C1
VIEWLINK:
notes://server1/65256F6D002390C1/DABA975B9FB113EB852564B5001283EA
DOCLINK:
notes://server1/65256F6D002390C1/DABA975B9FB113EB852564B5001283EA/280D21651A3F53EC6525757E001E819D
—OR—
If you don’t know the view it is in and want to reference the default view use
notes://server1/65256F6D002390C1/0/280D21651A3F53EC6525757E001E819D
By the way, I wrote a tool to help keep your contacts synchronized with LinkedIn. It is a little manual, as it uses CSVs provided by LinkedIn – but those same CSVs are provided by GOOGLE and can be used with this tool as well. So you can synch up and down. It can be downloaded here:
