#### FAQ

#### Q. What should I check if CSV import or export does not work correctly?

A. See [\[CSV Import\] Recommended environment and troubleshooting](/en/it-management/device/dwrsgbckjp-device-csv).

#### Q. What should I check if I cannot swap the primary and secondary email addresses?

A. If swapping email addresses fails, go to Directory, select the person, and check the **All IDs** tab.

If the IDs are merged, unmerge (split) them first. Then check whether you can swap the primary and secondary addresses on the **User Information** screen.

For details on unmerging, see [Account separation (unmerge)](/en/it-management/saas-management/d97dy5z2l7-merge). (After swapping, re-merge the accounts if needed.)
