OS X :: Entire Address Book Screwed Up / Fix It?

Sep 16, 2009

I just opened my address book and everything is screwed up!

Double contacts, wrong e-mail addresses under the wrong people, contacts gone etc ...

I am syncing with MobileMe and so is my iPhone 3GS and over at Me.com, everything is still fine ...

Before you ask, I didn't mess this up myself, 100% sure.

Any ideas as to why this could've happened?

Laptops :: Apple Mail System Address Book Vs The Dock Address Bookk

Nov 21, 2010

Using a G4 IBOOK with OS 10.5.8. Recently converted IBOOK from just my wifes computer to both of us so it is now dual usuage with both of us signing in to our respective files/e-mail, etc. My side has a problem never experienced before. My apple mail system address book has all the names the dock address book does but is missing almost 2/3rd of the actual e-mail addressess. I have tried to redo the dock address book in hopes it would change the "internal" mail book, but to no avail. It id difficult to add a recipient to an outgoing e-mail via the dock address instead of the apple mail address book.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Address Book - Address Editing For Group Members?

May 20, 2012

how to specify which of several email addresses should be used for a member of a group.  It starts by selecting the menu item "Edit > Edit Distribution List."  From there it explains how to select the desired address for a specific person.  All well and good... 

BUT... 

Try as I might, doing various combinations of name or group selections in the address book window, I cannot seem to get the "Edit Distributuion List" item to be un-greyed.  Effectively, the program is not allowing me to do the edit function I need to do on this one group member. 

Am I missing the secret handshake in this process?  Why should it be this hard to do this simple function? 

Which raises the larger question of "What did Apple do to the Address Book application in general?"  This issue is only the tip of my iceberg.  The whole app seems to be harder to use than before. 

Info:
iMac (24-inch Early 2008), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Why Address Book Add New Phone / Email Address As Other

Mar 20, 2012

I must be missing something very obvious, but I can't seem to set Address Book to add all new contact info as "Work" entries. I have to edit every new entry and change all the fields from "other" to "work." This appears to happen when I "grab" phone or email info from an email message.

OS X :: Unable To Use Mac Address Book

Jul 1, 2010

I've just been inputing email addresses into my Mac Address Book. One email at a time. All of a sudden it wipe every email address in then (over 4000) and left 2.

It wiped out all the Group Folders I had in there as well. Basically all I can view now is the 2 emails, nothing else. I've found some of the emails (only 50 or so) in a Recovered Files folder in the Trash.

OS X :: Any Way To Reinstall Address Book Only?

Aug 9, 2009

I've discovered an extremely irritating bug in OS X. If you're using the trackpad when copying a file from the filelist in Finder to the sidebar, if your finger accidentally slips off the pad, the file disappears! It doesn't go to the sidebar, and it doesn't remain where it was originally. Great undocumented feature of OS X.

Anyway, since the file I was trying to copy was addressbook.app, I can't run the addressbook anymore. I've read where the only way to reinstall the addressbook is to reinstall OS X entirely including all the updates that have been installed previously. Does anyone know of a way that I can just reinstall that one application instead of having to go through the reinstallation of the entire OS?

OS X :: Address Book - No Name And Email

Aug 30, 2009

Have any of you run across this annoyance after upgrading to SL? I had about 30 accounts that I call on that were listed as Company that all of a sudden showed up in my address book as either NoName or NoEmail. I found the solution to fixing this was to go to each address listed and tic the little box next to the word Company under First Last name. Luckily, I only had about 30 of these to manually fix, I feel sorry for those who have 100's of names to fix. You probably wonder why I did not have the Company box checked, well in all honesty, it did not matter whether you did or not under OS X Leopard, now for some reason some programmer thought it necessary to make it necessary to check the company box.

OS X V10.4 :: Address Book Is A Little Clunky?

Apr 4, 2012

I would prefer to be able to select a single address in Address Book, copy it and paste it into a Word or Pages doc. That seems to be a pretty basic feature that Apple seemed to forget about. I don't necessarily just want to create a vcard but that's pretty much all I can do. Apple needs to work on this.

OS X :: Which File Has My Address Book Contacts?

Oct 27, 2010

So i just upgraded my macbook form tiger to snow leopard. I decided to do a clean install as there was plenty on my computer which i didn't want or need. There are two things that if possible i would love to keep and those are my address book contacts and my calendar dates.

I have a Carbon Copy Clone of my computer done just before I upgraded the software on my computer.

So my question is, Is there a way to take a certain file or something and add it to my new address book and calendar rather than imputing all the info again?

Maybe there is another way to do this as well.

OS X :: Address Book Label Printing?

Dec 20, 2010

I am tearing my hair out! Apple Address book is so close to having a workable solution to mass label printing.

Does anybody know how to print address labels from a group in the address book.

I know you can create templates pages for avery labels ect but it will only allow you to print the name rather than select a "nick name"

Any new ideas? I have started to dabble in the apple scripting side of this issues so I am open to suggestions... really anything saves having to write out 3000 addresses.

OS X :: Won't Work With Address Book / Not Showing Up

Jan 6, 2011

I've got a problem with my address book that seems a little more complicated than I know how to solve. I opened my address book today, and it doesn't show any of my contacts. I also can't create contacts (I click on the little plus sign, and nothing happens).

Obviously there's a problem with the registry. What's strange is that I know that the addresses are still all there because they show up in my Skype, and in Facebook import (from Mac Adress Book).

I tried using time machine, but no avail, I also reinstalled Address Book, and nothing happens.

OS X :: Mac Address Book Does Not Open/launch?

My Macintosh address book does not open. After I click it on the task bar it bounces once and that's it. I've also deleted the icon from the task bar and tried launching it from the applications folder, but I get the same response.

When I open up Mail and click on the address book while composing a message, I can see the entries.

OS X :: Address Book - Always Shrinking Window?

Nov 13, 2008

Every time I open Address Book, the window shrinks ever so little (2-3 pixels) down. It only shrinks vertically, never horizontally. The entire window is not moving down either. I can recreate the issue on a MacBook and an iMac running 10.5.5.

Not a big issue, but after around 30 or so opens, the window is considerably smaller. This seems to be the only application with this issue. The best way to recreate the issue is place the Address Book window at the bottom of the screen and then click on the dock icon and Command+Q close the application several time rather quickly. Have a finder window or document open in the background behind the Address Book application for reference points. Very strange that this bug is still around from OS X Tiger?

OS X :: Why Are Mail And Address Book Nameless

May 10, 2009

We've got iCal, Safari, Photo Booth, iTunes, etc.

But why are "Address Book", and "Mail" essentially nameless? It seems a bit odd.

If it weren't for the old laptop, "iBook" would be a perfect name for Address Book.

OS X :: Deleting Contacts In Address Book?

May 27, 2009

I've tried out iChat and have added 2 friends and iChat has added 2 more contact entries for each of those buddies. Now I can't delete them, or know how to. I thought I could just right click & delete or just drag to the trash but nothing happens. I'm sure its user error [since I'm new to Mac's] but why can't I delete and/or why would it add another contact for a contact I already have? what's going on here with the contacts and what not. I'd basically like to just add my buddies I already have to the iChat buddies but not sure what I'm doing.
