Issue:
Want to copy/move contacts from one personal contacts folder to another one. However, if you right-click on a contact and copy it, it will put it in a new folder which is not helpful. If you highlight the folder, it will create another folder/subfolder instead of within the target folder desired.

Solution:
Highlight the contact to copy/move and drag from the original folder to the target contacts folder.

Hints:
Use SHIFT key to select a range of documents by clicking once on the first (top) contact and then holding down SHIFT while clicking on the last contact. You can also use CTRL to copy individual ones not next to each other by holding down CTRL while clicking once on each contact.

To copy hold down CTRL key while dragging. Don't hold it down while dragging to move them instead.
