How do I import addresses from Address Book Ver 4.1.2 to the Lion Address Book version 7.0? Mountain Lion will not allow me to open Address book Version 4.1.2

How do I import addresses from Address Book Ver 4.1.2 to the Lion Address Book version 7.0? Mountain Lion will not allow me to open Address book Version 4.1.2

Do you have any addresses in the Lion version?
If not, copy the AddressBook folder from your username/Library/Application Support/ folder on the old mac (or backup).
Copy it to the same location on your new Mac, replacing the one that is there. Start Address Book in Mountain Lion and it should convert the files to the correct format.
If you do have addresses, it is a little more complicated.
First, create a Contacts Archive (from File>Export menu). This will be your backup.
Next, export the current contacts as vCards.
Then, follow the steps above.
Then, import all the cards you exported. If you select all and double-click, it will ask if you want to add them. You'll then have to add them to whatever groups you had set up.

  • How do you import photos from a library on an external drive to the current library running in iPhoto?

    How do you import photos from a library on an external drive to the current library running in iPhoto? I have a few different pictures in each library and would like to have all my pictures in both libraries. The library on the external drive is my backup. I would appreciate any help.

    Depends on exactly what you want to do.
    Just move some of the Photos? FIle -> Export from one and export the shots to the Finder. Then import them to the other.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    Move the photos and all versions and metadata: use iPhoto Library Manager it's the only way to do this while preserving everything. Merge two Libraries into one?
    If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
    Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager

  • I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account. Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my account every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail. I cannot edit the outgoing server; how can I send emails?

    I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account (3 email addresses). Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my accounts every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail (the message says that the outgoing server was rejected. I cannot edit the outgoing server, and the keychain will not save my passwords (the ports are valid). How can I change the outgoing server to send emails, and how can I avoid having Mail request my passwords every 2 minutes? Verizon, as usual, will not provide support to iMacs.

    Is there an email saved in your drafts or outbox folder?  I suspect that Mail is continually trying to send it, and each time Google is rejecting the email message.
    You can open the message and then delete it from your Outbox folder.  Then try removing all @gmail email addresses from it and seeing whether you can send to the other folks.  I suspect that will work.
    With email, if an SMTP server *can* verify email addresses, sometimes it will and it will refuse to send messages.  If a message has to be relayed across servers, no verification is done, and you'll get a bounce if an email address is bad.

  • I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer.?

    I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

  • When I try to download something, the download box pops up and it will download, but will not allow me to open the file from the download box

    Whether pictures, or executable files, will download into the download box that pops up. When the file is done downloaded, when I attempt to either left click or right click on the file in the download box, it will not allow me to open that file

    Do you owe money from these previous purchases? If so, you will not be able to download anything further from the iTunes Store until you provide a payment method, either a credit card or a prepaid iTunes card, to clear that balance.

    I recently added Maverick to my Safari and downloaded a book from the library to Digital Editions 2 on my computer.

    Hey! I had the same problem you did just today when I was trying to get my second iPhone to sync. What you need to do with music or anything extra that you doing you have to creat a second playlist or picture or anything that you would like to use, so that you can add to the second device that you are going to be using. I am not sure if that will help but it helped me out a lot!! Good luck!

  • I updated to iTunes 10.5 on Vista. As with iTunes 10.0, The DEP will not allow iTunes to open.  WHEN IS APPLE GOING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE?  I can't update my telephone or iPod.  I can't even open the iTunes program!!!

    I am sick of dealing with this issue.  I wish not that I had never even started using any Apple products, beginning with iTunes.  WHEN IS APPLE GOING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND MAKE ITUNES SOMEHOW COMPATIBLE WITH DEP IN WINDOWS VISTA?
    That being said, Is there any way to resolve this?  What I did in the past is completely wipe ALL Apple files from my computer, and install an older version of iTunes.  It was at least functional.  It seems that any version of iTunes 10.0 or more recent is not compatible with the Data Execution Prevention in Windows.  You can not remove iTunes from DEP, yet DEP prevents iTunes from running.
    The down side is that I can't get the latest updates for my iPhone or iPod.  Now, I have a new phone for my husband that needs syncing on my iTunes, and I can't do that because iTunes won't even open.
    Can somebody help me out with this, please?

    Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
    type in
    sfc /scannow
    let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
    Restart the computer.
    Start iTunes and see if it is ok.
    If it doesn't, will have to go through the whole process of uninstalling and installing acccording to the following steps:
    1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:

    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
    2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:

  • I Phone 4S. I am unable to update the software. Evidently my I Mac ( 10.4) will not allow or support the sw update. How can I update  this device? The phone function is not currently working either. HELP ! at t

    I am unable to update my I Phone 4s through I-Tunes. I believe its due to my antiquated  10.4 operating system on my 2005 I Mac. How can I perform the software update. Currently even the phone function will not work . I'm a novice with this device.

    Whatever version of Leopard you purchase, I suggest updating it to 10.5.8 which should have everything you require. To update Leopard download and install Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update. Alternatively, open Software Update and install all the recommended updates. That will include the above updater.
    To update your phone:

         then you will see a gray screen with a message saying your are up to date.

  • I cannot open movie rentals on the ipod. if I try to update it it tells me to move the rentals back into my Library bu I tunes will not allow me to do that. how can I move the rebtals back into the library?

    How can I move rentals from my Ipod back into my I tunes Library?

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
    - Then try on another computer

  • I have Thunderbird on Windows 8.1 and it will not allow me to open an excel spreadsheet from an e-mail.

    If I receive an e-mail with an excel attachment on it or an attachment that has 'dat.' at the4 end of it, the attachment won't open when I try to open it. Most frustrating.

    To get Thunderbird to open a dat Text file file using Excel.
    Right click on attachment and choose 'Open'
    A window opens asking what to use.
    select 'Open with'
    click on the drop down selection and choose 'Other'.
    A small window opens showing a selection.
    If Microsoft Excel is not in the list, click on 'Browse' button
    a window opens showing your 'Program files'
    If your OS is Win8.1 and 64bit version and Office 2010 32bit version, to find Office programs the default path may say:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\ This is the 64bit version path for Win8.
    It is also the standard directory if using Vista 32bit.
    So if your OS is Win8.1 64bit version you need to choose the 32bit path:
    C:\'''Program Files (x86)'''\Microsoft Office\
    locate and click on 'Microsoft Office'
    click on 'Office 12' folder
    The number eg: '12' depends on the version: I have 2007
    so if you use 2010 then it will be in Office 14 folder - list is below to choose correct folder.
    * 9 = Office 2000
    * 10 = Office 2002/XP
    * 11 = Office 2003
    * 12 = Office 2007
    * 14 = Office 2010
    Now you should see 'Excel.exe' , This is the file you are looking for.
    Select 'Excel.exe' and click on 'Open'
    If you want Thunderbird to remember this and use it each time to open dat file, select the checkbox 'Do this automatically for files like this from now on.
    click on Ok
    This will now open a dat file from the attachments in an email using excel.
    It will be listed in Tools-Options-Attachments-Incoming tab.

  • Firefox on my laptop will not allow me to open multiple tabs, how can I fix this issue?

    I usually use firefox and yesterday was downloading a photoshop program called gimp. all of a sudden after downloading it, firefox stops allowing me to open multiple tabs. I click on file and new tab, but it still will not work.

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
