Birthday information not showing on calendar
 
I imported contacts using a CSV (thousands of contacts). Is there a way to
get the birthday information (already entered in birthday field) to show up
on calendar?

Importing Contact data will not establish links and will lose a lot of other
information. It is a poor choice for Contact creation unless you have no
alternative.

contacts from one computer/outlook account to another?

Sure. We post it here every day. Just copy the Outlook data file and open it
in the other installation. If you want to move only Contacts, then copy them
into their own PST file and open that in the other installation.
