OS X V10.7 Lion :: Address Book Won't Re-import .abbu File
Apr 8, 2012Searching in my address book didn't work anymore so I exported the whole address book as an .abbu file and deleted all entries. Now when I try to import that file, it looks for busy for a few minutes and then ends up having no entries. I tried disconnecting from the internet as I read somewhere to avoid interference with iCloud. I also tried creating a new account and import it there so I could change it into vCards, but it wouldn't import there either. It's a 1.3 GB file. I don't have a back-up file or something I can use instead (which wouldn't be up to date) and unfortunately it already synced with my iPhone which has now an empty address book. I also opened the .abbu file and tried to import the .abcdg files but that doesn't work either

Apr 18, 2012My Address Book won't restore contacts from my address book archive (.abbu).I sync my address book with iCloud.A couple weeks ago Address Book told me there were some inconsistancies in my contacts.It said that 12 of my contacts were outdated; the "updated" versions that it presented were actually versions that were older by several weeks or months.I exported my correct contacts as a .abbu file.I also back up with Time Machine so I should have a good copy there. I deleted a "bad" contact from my Address Book, and then tried to import the .abbu file, the contact I deleted appeared for a second and then disappeared.I then deleted my entire Address Book.I tried again to import the .abbu file.All the contacts appeared for a second and then disappeared. This happen when iCloud was added in perferences and syncing and when it wasn't. Deleting the file AddressBook folder in ~/ApplicationSupport/ also didn't help.

May 21, 2012I have a disk image .dmg file, and chage the icon by highlighting the file in Finder, then press Command-I. Then I'll copy and past a new icon in the file information dialog box. I can then see the new icon in the finder, and also the icon for this file in the dock changes. Great. Then I'll rsync the .dmg file from one Mac to another, and the icon reverts to the default icon for .dmg files. Is there any way to make the icon change stick, when copying the file to another Mac?Â

Mar 24, 2008I managed to successfully hide the file: cat picture.jpg hidden.rtf.zip > picture2.jpg
results in a picture (picture2.jpg) that is the size of the sum of picture.jpg and hidden.rtf.zip. I presume this means that I am successfully putting hidden into the picture.I can open picture2.jpg, but I can't figure out a way to access the hidden zip.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: How To Know Where File Is Located
Apr 8, 2012Once side effect of Lion's new file storage system (automatic saving, versioning, etc.) is that sometimes I'm just not sure where a file is located when I pull it from the Open Recent list. Yes, there are occasions when the Open Recent list isn't determining the location of the file I'm about to load. Before, I could simply choose File | Save As... and the file dialog would show me where the file was located. But Save As is now gone. Is there any way to tell where a file is located, say, once I've loaded it in Keynote or Page via Open Recent?

Mar 23, 2012I found a ds_.... type file on my desktop after opening a spreadsheet. When I tried deleting the file, it came back as soon as I clicked the "empty trash" menu. I tried opening it to see what it is, but got a message there was no app associated to open it. But it had about 6kb of data on it.  I checked to make sure it wasn't locked, and it wasn't. I renamed it as a .jpg file, deleted it, and again as soon as I hit empty trash, it came back on the desk top as a ds_ file. There are no other programs running, so it's not part of an active program. I don't know what's inside or exactly where it came from and don't know why after I empty the trash, it automatically pops up again on the desktop. How do I get rid of it?
