Not able to edit Yahoo Mail address book. Okay with Apple Safari's Yahoo Mail but not with Firefox's,

Editing a contact in Yahoo Mail it always just "hangs" (doing nothing) when I am using Firefox. Editing the same account using Apple's Safari browser went through without any problem. It seems that Firefox interface with Yahoo caused this.

Just found the answer (it's a reported bug) and a likely solution!
Instead of dragging the group over to the 'To' box in a new email, the suggestion was to just start typing the name of the group. So far it seems to be working!!!

  • Every since I upgraded to iTunes 12 I am not able to burn a certain playlist to a disc.  Other playlists will burn, but not this certain one.

    All other playlists will burn fine, but not this one.  I can even burn these individual songs to a disc but as soon as I put them all together in a play list and attempt to burn it to a disc it says, "The attempt to burn a disc failed.  The disk could not be read from or written to".  I have tried multiple discs, but it doesn't help.  I have even used some of the discs that didn't work to burn this particular playlist, to burn OTHER playlists.  I have tried moving the songs around in a different order also.  Nothing seems to work.  I have never had this problem before and I am not sure what to do about it.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!!!

    i have the same problem how do i fix?

  • Editing Mail Address Book

    I would like to edit the address book in Mail. I need to add a contact from scratch; i.e. not a contact in any mail box, just a new contact with a dialog box for entering the contact information such as name, address, phone number, e-mail, web page, etc. Also I need to be able to edit the address book; remove a contact or edit the information of a particular contact. I can't seem to get the address book to contain more than the e-mail address of a contact. Where is the address, phone number, and other information?

    It sounds like this may be your first Mac, if so then I'd recommend spending some time learning more about it by visiting:

  • Is there a way to import my yahoo mail address book?

    Is there a way to import my yahoo mail address book?

    AddressBook shouldn't have any problem with the vCard format - which Yahoo can export to... In fact, I've done this before.
    On the Yahoo AddressBook page, click the link for 'Import/Export'
    On the next page, in the export section, choose 'vCard single file'
    Then in AddressBook, you can simply drag the vCard to the window or go to File>Import>vCards...

    It sounds like you use Quest as your ISP, or whoever you have as your ISP is being taken over by Quest. If this is the case it is possible that your email server is being transitioned to Quest and you will need to change your email address and server settings.
    I am only speculating since I do not have enough information. I suggest calling your ISP or Quest and ask their help desk about this.

  • Mail, Address Book, iCal, iTunes not opening

    Today I came in and Parallels was totally locked up. I quit all applications and restarted the iMac. Once it was restarted I could no longer open Mail, Address Book, iCal or iTunes. All other apps work except these very important ones. Any ideas? I've ran disk utilitiy and verified and repaired all file permissions and checked the disk. Still the same problem.

    Hi Kevin
    it's possible that Console may show a useful pointer to the reason, or mention a log which does...
    if not..
    I would Verify/Repair the disk (not permissions) & then if no problems are found reinstall OS X (which should retain your users/settings/files, but have a backup anyway), Quick & easy with 10.6.
    You could download & try the 10.6.4 combo first, if you wish - sometimes this fixes things.

  • Please Help! Suddenly unable to open Mail, Address Book etc

    This morning when I woke up my IBook my Mail was still open from yesterday. When I tried to open ICal it kept crashing. So I restarted and then suddenly ITunes, Mail, Address Book and ICal would not open at all!! (However, it seems that iPhoto, Appleworks, Safari etc is fine).
    I do have a IPhone, but haven't synced in a week or so. Not sure that that would be relevant at all.
    The other weird thing that has happened, is that all the info on the top right hand corner of my menu bar (my airport, date, weather snitch, spotlight etc) disappeared a few weeks ago. It has been blank there ever since. When I just did a check of those applications ( internet connect, weather snitch) they also didn't open now.
    Thanks in advance for any advice at all...
    BTW, I just ran verify disk, and it stopped with this error message:
    " the underlying task reported failure on exit" - The volume needs to be repaired.
    Really hoping that someone can help me with this!

    Hi ALSVLA, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
    Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
    If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!

  • I changed my apple ID password and now facetime cannot verify my e-mail address.  I have tried changing my password back but still recieve the same pop up window telling me that the email could not be verified and to check my network but have wifi working

    Please help.  I changed my apple id password and now cannot use facetime and my icloud continues to prompt me for my password and I continue to give it but, I repeatedly am prompted for the password unless I cancel the icloud.  I have tried changing my password back to the password I had before and this did not work.  I have tried to use another e-mail address for facetime and had verified that e-mail address and this did not work.  I do not know how to fix this problem.  I have thought about changing my apple id but am not sure how I would be able to carry over the same credit card number to the new apple ID.  I loved my Mac book Pro because I could facetime my boyfriend while I am working away and now I cannot.  I am starting to hate Mac.

    The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

  • Unable to edit ANYTHING in address book

    have just tried to edit something in address book - something which has always worked well and now i cannot do anything. The lists are still there, but the edit button is grey and unuseable and the + button in the left column to add contact has gone...any ideas?????

    how do i check that?
    i have got info by clicking on icon in applications - seem to be able to read and write - but still not able to edit addresses? Had a look at preferences in library - doesnt seem to be any preferences for address book - is this normal or have they mysteriously disappeared?

  • How do i delete all my contacts in mail address book

    how so i delete all my contacts in mail address book, i have 1,042,000 blank contacts.

    In Lion, the user's LIBRARY folder is hidden. So, it's not visible automatically.
    Open Finder.
    At the menu items at the top of your screen, click on GO (where you see Finder, File, Edit, View, Go, Help)
    Next within the GO options, select the 'Go to Folder' option. You will see a window open to enter text.
    Enter ~/Library and click the GO button.
    Now you'll be in your user LIBRARY where you need to be to get to your address book file previously mentioned.
    You want to open the Application Support folder then from inside there open the AddressBook folder. Then you can follow Barney's instructions.

  • Mail & Address Book with Exchange = Problems Problems Problems

    Hi All,
    There is a serious issue with Mail/Address Book in Lion with Exchange Server 2010. I have had nothing but grief since upgrading and I have been able to recreate my scenario on two macs using two different profiles so I know it's not related to any settings or anything. None of these problems appear in Outlook 2011.
    Basically, to sum up the massive list of problems:
    The connection to Exchange drops all the time. I have to use to function "Take my accounts online" about 60-70 times per day.
    Trying to send new e-mail often results in a pop-up box indicating that the server isn't available to send (with the options to Try Again With Selected Server or Try Later)
    GAL look up for names takes forever. Sometimes the GAL will come up right away, but often times, there's the spinning progress indicator that can take upwards of 1-3 minutes to find the name in the GAL. Same in Address Book, spinning indicator trying to retrieve the GAL.
    When sending e-mails, Mail seems to "duplicate" the last name of the person I'm sending the e-mail to if I've already sent them an e-mail in the past (even if I clear the previous recipients list). For example, "John Smith" would appear as "John Smith Smith"
    Trying to move messages often fails. I suspect this is due to issue #1 above.
    Like I mentioned, none of these problems occur in Outlook. Granted, I would much prefer to use Mail as the search functions are much faster and the program is snappier.
    Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Mail on Lion + Exchange 2010 servers? At this point I'm wondering if it's potentially a configuration issue with our exchange provider (and if so, what would it be?).
    Cheers,

    I'm having this same problem with syncing address book to exchange contacts. I know I have the correct exchange server specified because I have it in both Apple Mail and on my phone. Also, In the past i have been able to sync address book, but at some point that stopped working. Exchange is syncing perfectly ota to my phone, but I hate to go into OWA to add or change contacts.

  • My Thunderbird page is screwed up - there is no address book appearing in the tool bar and i do not see a "write: tab - just message - how can I restore

    My Thunderbird page is screwed up - there is no address book appearing in the tool bar and i do not see a "write" tab - just "message" how can I restore back to normal?
    Would so much appreciate help... frustrating.

    Sounds like you are missing the Mail Toolbar.
    Do you have a Menu Bar with File-Edit-View etc?
    If not press the alt key to make it appear.
    From the Menu Bar select View-Toolbars and turn the missing toolbars back on.
    Write and Address Book are on the Mail Toolbar.
    FYI: The alt key or F10 will make a missing toolbar appear in most applications.
