Apparently I inadverdently clicked on something that changed my address book listings to showing only the first three letters of each name -

the column showing my address book now shows only the first three characters of each name
it's like they have all been abbreviated
I have to try and decipher the name from those three characters before clicking
to see the
person's address window with the full information
I would like to be able to read the entire name- first & last like before
Thank you in advance

try dragging the column heading to make the column wider

  • How to change address book listings in Leopard not by first name first?

    I was recently upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. Suddenly the names in my computer address book are listed by first names first, ALICE BROWN. How can I change this back to the way it used to be in Tiger, listing the last name first,, BROWN, ALICE ?

    Open Address Book, select Preferences from the Address Book menu, click on the General icon in the toolbar. You can then change the sort and presentation order in the dialog.

  • I just got a Mac and I use the same internet connection as my mom and my brother, who has an iPad. He can click on something that has my name and then Macbook Air, and is able to see everything on my computer screen. How do I fix this?

    I just got a Mac and I use the same internet connection as my mom and my brother, who has an iPad. He can click on something that has my name and then Macbook Air, and is able to see everything on my computer screen. How do I fix this so he cant see what i am doing on my computer?

    No, I made sure nothing was checked for that section when i found out he could see my screen. At the top it says "computers on your local network can access your computer at: blah blah". I think thats how hes doing it but i dont know how to fix it.

  • I upgraded to Snow Leopard, made a change to Address Book that I need to correct, tried to use Time Machine to find the prior version and it keeps pulling up the later ones info. How do I use Time Machine to restore Address Book from a few hours ago?

    This morning, I upgraded to Snow Leopard from v10.5.8. Then, I exported 11 contacts from our old Now Contact database, intending to import that info into Address Book. It was an experiment, as we have 1199 contacts in 20+ categories and want to eventually get them into Bento from Address Book. The export automatically created a file called Export.vcf on the desktop, after I highlighted the 11 contacts. I tried to look at the info, but when clicked it opens Address Book, which then simply asked if I wanted to import the 11 contacts to it. I clicked yes. Then in checking Address Book 7, not 11 contacts appeared. I clicked on "All Contacts" and there were 1630. We only have 1199, so where did the extra 400+ come from? Since I had already clicked twice on the Address Book window, I couldn't undo the import. So I thought 'Ok, I'll trash Address Book and go to Time Machine, find Address Book, go to right after the upgrade to SL, hit Restore and bingo. Nope. I keep getting the post-import info, not pre. Con someone direct me to a solution? I want to get rid of the import contacts plus the extra 300 or so ( I already had a hundred or so in several categories)? Then, I need to figure out (1) why ALL the old records were exported from Now Contact, (2) where they were hiding in that .vcf file when Address Book recognized that I only wanted to export 11, (3) why Address Book showed only 7 imports in the "Last Import" group, but showed ALL my contacts in the "All Contact" group, even though they should nearly all have been safely untouched in the Now Contact DBase file. PS, I am not especially computer savvy. Thanks for any enlightenment.

    I bought the Adobe student version of Photoshop and Premiere Elements a few months ago - and now I am trying to use it, and the serial number that I have is incorrect - or it is only the registration number or something?

    If I were you I would first make sure CS6 was deactivated or signed-out. Then download Adobe's cleaner and remove cc, CS6 and any other creative  application installed including Creative Cloud desktop application.  Then install CS6 and use your CS6  serial number during the install to activate CS6 standard or extended which ever the serial number is for.   CS6 Version 13.0 should the be activated. That level of CS6 is extremely bug ridden so be sure to the use CS6 menu Help>Updates to get CS6 updates.  Windows should update to version 13.0.1.3 Mac to version 13.0.6.  Not Subscription CS6 version 13.1.2...
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

    The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc....

    TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
    The failure in communication is two parted:
    1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
    2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
    therefore confused clients.
    For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
    Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
    Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
    Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
    downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
    This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
    It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...

    HAVING A PROBLEM WHEN I PRINT A WEB PAGE WHICH IS MORE THAT ONE PAGE LONG. ONLY THE FIRST PAGE PRINTS TO SCALE...THE REMAINING PAGES PRINT OFF THE PAGE????HELP-IT IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH FIREFOX BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH SAFARI??

    Thank you for the response. I tried to fix the problem with some of the suggestions on that page, but none seem to work. I believe that is the only website that I'm having that problem on. I got to fooling with it a bit more and when I highlight the whole page and select to print the selected area, it actually prints the whole page then, but it won't do it as a default. I guess I can just do it like that from now on, but I thought there would be something in the settings that I could have changed. Thanks again for the help.

  • HT4436 Since installing Ios7 280 music tunes out of a total of 360 will now only play when I'm within range of WiFi. How can I get them back on my Iphone 4s and scrap this stupid icloud that I did not want or ask for in the first place.

    Since installing Ios7   280 music tunes out of a total of 360 will now only play when I'm within range of WiFi. The remainder now appear with the stupid Icloud logo beside them. How can I get them back on my Iphone 4s and scrap this stupid icloud that I did not want or ask for in the first place. Why can't rotten apple ask if you want the dam icloud rather than just stealing everything without permission and then you can only have access to it through wifi.

    Wow, just posting and it seems that there is a solution that is working for me...
    What I've did is I turned off iTunes Match on my iPhone, then turned in on again. Now in my iTunes library on my mac I can get the duplicates to be matched or uploaded to iCloud with a right-click, add to iCloud. iTunes Match starts to check the songs and everything is done correctly. Pretty nice!

  • IDOC sends/shows only the delta changes

    Hi All,
    I went to tcode we02 and trying to see the details for each IDoc number and it only shows the delta changes.similarly I take the IDoc number and executing the fm IDOC_XML_TRANSFORM then it is generating xml with only the delta changes.
    Is that the expected behavior that it sends/shows only the delta changes .
    where do we do the setting so that IDoc only sends the delta changes and how do we change that
    Thanks
    Bala Duvvuri

    Hello,
    I don't know which IDoc type are you ussing, but I guess will be MATMAS or maybe DEBMAS.
    For this two IDocs you can send delta or all the data, the difference is the transaction used.
    For deltas BD21 is always used and this applys for all the Idoc messages for master data iDoc (like MATMAS, DEBMAS, CREMAS etc)
    For send all the data, this differ on which IDoc message you want:
    MATMAS --> BD10
    DEBMAS --> BD12
    So if you want to make this automatically just program a job for each program.
    Hope this will helps.
    Best Regards

  • I select a page for printing and the print page shows only the frame data and this is all that it prints.

    when I click on print the page to print shows only the frame and that is all that is printed. Why isn't the page data shown on the print page and also printed?

    This is how you do it:

  • Can't change my Address Book picture??

    Does anyone know how I can change my Address Book picture? I drag a photo I want to the current vcard pic, and the edit window opens up and I adjust the zoom and everything, but when I click "Set" the old picture is still there.
    I've tried changing this on my iMac and on my iBook and the same thing happens (old picture remains).
    Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

    Click on your card, choose Address Book>Card>Clear Custom Image...then Address Book>Card>Choose Custom Image.

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..
