Address book exporter with Lion

Address book exporter does not work with the new Lion operating software.  How do I now export my address book into a csv file?

Paid App, Sorry.

  • Address book Sync with Lion Server

    Hello,
    I have set up a Mac Mini with Lion Server and have OD users (no local user on the server). When I login "locally" (using the OD user account), I have my full environment, everything seems to work ok. Also the sync from my iPhone seems to work (only some calendar errors, sync doesn't come up with address book errors). But, as I now have noted, there is not really a sync of the address book. I have an old version of my address book on the server.
    How do I properly set up that:
    - my iPhone syncs with my OD user's address book only
    whereas
    -  central address book is kept on the OD server as well (without any sync)?
    Or did I get something wrong regarding the concept of running an address book on the Lion server ... maybe it's not possible to sync the iPhone to an OD user's address book?
    Best regards,
    Olaf.

    Have you tried rebuilding the accounts in SystemPrefs>Mail, Contacts and Calendars?
    Are the machines bound to the directory?
    Try setting it up in a fresh account on the broken Mac.
    Try setting it up on a different Mac.
    Hope this helps,
    Brian

  • Address Book Exporting ... the Case of the Missing Spouse ... ?

    … and missing children and missing birthdays, too.
    I have had problems customizing address labels, which I discussed in detail in a separate message, entitled Wonky Address Labels. In fact, I gave up on using Apple Address Book and decided to export the database, put it in Excel, and do some column merging to get a one-time solution to my label-printing problem for my Christmas cards.
    Yeah, sure I would … when Address Book will not export in anything other than an arcane address book file format.
    So it was back to this forum, to review exporting suggestions. Two seemed to be offered and I tried ‘em both; first, Address Book Exporter at:
    gwenhiver.net/applications/addressbookexporter/index.php
    and second, some special mail scripts at:
    http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html
    These were both fun to use and worked pretty well, producing tab-delimited text files. But neither will do a complete export of the database; they won’t export spouse names, anniversary dates, children’s names or spouse/children’s birthdays ( which I had put in an ‘Other Date’ field ) … nor, BTW, will they export custom fields.
    Well, if I can’t print custom labels with Apple Address Book and can’t export the full database, I guess hand-written Christmas card envelopes have a certain panache.
    Or, I suppose I might use my 10-year old Windows software that I run on Virtual PC.
    It would be nice if Apple would fix this Address Book exporting problem. Frankly, I don’t like the idea of having data in a database that I cannot export as a simple text file. In fact, if I had known I could not get my data OUT, I would not have put it IN to start with.
    Any suggestions for exporting ALL the fields of the Apple Address Book database would be welcome.

    value = value;Oh, so you have one of those new compilers that reads your mind and knows which value is which in that statement, huh?
    Lucky.
    The rest of us are stuck doing this.value = value;so that the compiler can distinguish the member variable from the method parameter.

  • Is Address book compatible with Outlook

    Hi,
    I'm usine Msft Outlook at my office to handle emails. Is the Mac Address Book compatible with Outlook as for imports/exports so that I can update my contacts from office and vice versa?
    Thx
    Simon

    Hi,
    Address Book "should" sync with an OWA server... I never got it to work, but some colleagues of mine do...
    I (mis)use Entourage to do the syncing from time to time (hate the app though), and I also use AddressX from Snerdware to sync Exchange's GAL...

  • 2 iClouds, 2 iPhones, 1 Mac, 1 address book...lion

    Hello,
    Has anyone here setup using two iCloud accounts (for two different users) on one Mac etc yet? I want to know how it works.
    - I have my iPhone, and I sync my calender from iCal to iCloud and my contacts to iCloud (Safari on my Mac and my iPhone with iOS5)
    - My girlfriend will be using iOS5 on her iPhone, and sharing my calender (which I will share from my iCloud) and syncing her contacts to her own iCloud (She uses Firefox)
    - We currently use the same address book, but with groups setup for my contacts and her contacts. After getting iCloud setup on my iPhone last night, I now have her contacts on my phone too, but I just view me group (which works fine).
    My question is will there be any syncing issues when she connects her iPhone up (it's not on iOS5 just yet) and iTunes starts to look and sync at  Lion (with iCloud update) address book?
    Sorry this is a little confusing, basically, will this work between one mac, two iphones and two iClouds? We don't want to lose our contacts, but we do want to seperate iCloud accounts.
    thanks!!

    It's all a bit fussy and messy, but I managed to sort it, thanks very much for your help!
    When I created the new Apple ID (for me and my girlfriend to share, with groups for me and her contacts seperatley) and imported my achieve in Address Book it really didn't work very well at all, and didn't create the groups, it dumped them into one big list which we defintely wanted to avoid.
    I stopped iClouding contacts from the Perferences on the shard iCloud accounts and started again. I then just copied and pasted into new groups which again didn't work perfectly. It took a bit of messing around but it's sorted now.
    My iPhone currently has lots of groups in it, but I don't really care to be honest, I am only viewing my own one so it's OK.
    I am not going to bothered with Calender, that will be a world of pain. I am just going to share my personal iCloud Calender with my girlfriend, that should work fine I hope...

  • My MacBook Pro will not sync address book changes with my IPhone.  Why?  It used to.

    My MacBook Pro will not sync address book changes with my IPhone.  Why?  It used to.

    Then you may have to try manually resetting the syncservices folder by following Julian Write's post (from https://discussions.apple.com/message/9274781#9274781):
    Ok, as you can't reset SyncServices in the "normal" way, you'll have to resort to the "other" way:
    Although it's not advised to do so in normal circumstances, you'll need to manually delete the SyncServices folder.
    Before doing so, you MUST make a backup of both your Contacts and Calendars:
    In Address Book, choose *Export > Address Book Archive...* from the File menu.
    In iCal, choose *Back up iCal...* from the File menu.
    Then, make a backup of the SyncServices folder located at:
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
    By backing everything up first, you don't risk losing anything.
    Finally delete the aforementioned SyncServices folder and restart the Mac. This will force Mac OS X to recreate the SyncServices folder, and hopefully fix your problem.
    I believe in Snow Leopard you can back up your calendar in File>Export>iCal Archive rather than File>Back up iCal as posted above.

  • Using Address Book Exporter to move Address Book Contacts to Palm Desktop

    I have had strangely mixed results using "Address Book Exporter" to create files that can be imported into Palm Desktop.
    I really want to export all 1200 of my Address book cards to my new Treo 700P. Too complex?
    I set up a new group in my Address Book and placed about 400 cards in it. I then used Address Book Exporter to export all of these records using template "Palm Desktop" onto a .txt file on my hard drive.
    When I opened my Palm Desktop application and clicked on import, I first had to cause the dialogue box to show all files rather than just "readable files" in order for the exported files to be available. When I clicked on the file of 400 Address book cards that I had exported, I got the dialogue box similar to FileMaker where you have to line up the receiving fields in the Palm Desktop application with the fields in the file that Address Book Exporter created.
    When I set the "fields" drop-down menu to "addresses" and set the "Delimiters" drop-down menu to "Palm Desktop", everything just lined up automatically. No futher adjustments were needed. I just clicked OK and the 400 records were transferred to my Palm Desktop Address list - ready to further transfer to my new Treo 700P - successfully.
    But when I went through this exact same routine, instead exporting all of the cards in my Address book, when I got to the last step and set the two drop down menus - the "fields" drop-down menu to "addresses" and set the "Delimiters" drop-down menu to "Palm Desktop" - nothing happened. The fields in the exported file did not line up at all. The created export file I opened showed only one "superfield' with all the data in it (just as the earlier example had, at first) which would not change to all of the fields needed to line up with the Palm Desktop importing fields as had happened in the first example.
    Why the two different reactions to what seems to be the same routines? Does Address Book Exporter have a cap on the size of the export it can handle?
    I just don't understand it.

  • Syncing Address Book contacts with iPod

    I know some people will think this post should be in the iPod forum but I have realised that it is not my iPod beccasue I tried using a different iPod and the same problem happened. Anyway...the problem is that when I choose to sync Address Book contacts with iPod it comes up with this message:
    No contacts available
    Contact syncinig cannot be enabled because there are no contacts available. Do you want to open Address Book and create contacts now?
    And gives me the options: Cancel and Open Address Book
    I have tried deleting several different preferences for iTunes, Address Book and iSync (just incase).
    I don't know what else to do, I know I can manually add my contacts by exporting them all as a vCard but it would be so much easier if iTunes could do it. Please help if you know anything!

    I've got Calenders syncing again, not sure how I did it. I deleted the one of the folders in /Users/Alex/Library/Application Support/SyncServices/Local/clientdata/
    I found that in each folder there is a clientname.txt file with the name of what data is in the folder e.g. iCal, Safari, Keychain, Mail.
    I deleted the iCal one and iTunes seems to be syncing it now. So I looked for a folder with Address Book in the clientname.txt file but there wasn't one. I am wondering whether that's the reason!

  • Did anyone else lose all their contacts from address book after the Lion upgrade? ...and how do I get them back?

    I seem to have lost all my contacts from my address book after the Lion upgrade.  I am a mobileme user and since it sync's with my MacBook Pro it erased all of by contacts.  How do I retrieve my missing information?
    MacBook Pro mid 2010, just upgraded to Lion and iPhone 4.

    yes, i did too.. will probably just try to restore them from the iphone sync.

  • I have a 2nd gen Mac book air with Lion. The hard disk has filled up even though i keep my data , music etc on hard drive . I used disk inspector to find where problem was and it is 20GB in the hidden files under the user directory can i resolve this ?

    I have a 2nd Gen MAc book Air with Lion .  The 60GB hard disc has quickly filled up despite me keeping most of my data on a portable hard drive .  I used disk inspector to locate the problem but found that it was was in 20 GB of hidden files in my user directory .  Is this correct and is there anything i can do about it ? Using disk inspector you can not see individual hudden diretories or files. I did unhide them but there is a mass of diretories etc and so no way i could see if this is one or multiple files using the space. Library System and  Applications are at 4 3 and 3 GB respectvely.  The data I actually keep on there is 9GB    Thanks for any help

    I think the problem is Quick Time Player. I am using OS 10.6.8 by the way.
    I tried it out again.
    I had about 26 GB of space before I played an .avi video.
    After the movie started to play (it was slow to load), I got a warning message that my startup disk was full. I opened Disk Utility and it told me I had no space left (about 20 MB or something like that was left).
    I watched to the end of the movie.
    Then I quit Quicktime Player.
    And I shut down the computer.
    I turned on the computer and checked Disk Utility. I have about 26 GB of space.
    I think for some reason Quicktime Player uses up a lot of the disk space when it runs movies that are problematic. This movie I was watching did not open with vlc.
    I normally use vlc to watch movies.
    Probably it doesn't use up this much space when the movie is OK.
    I think there's a problem with this particular movie. It is about 50 MB so it's not that big a file. I watch .smi subtitles with it. The Quicktime Player automatically loads the subtitle file in this case because the subtitle file has the same name as the movie file.
    I watched about 10 movie files from the same series that I downloaded together and did not have any problem watching them. I watched them on vlc. But this latest movie had problems I think (as I repeat). It did not load on vlc even though I waited for a minute, and normally movies load instantly on vlc. 
    So I think that movie file caused problems. It made QT player use up a lot of hard disk space.
    I had better avoid watching that movie in the future. I don't want it to wreck my hard drive.
    So to sum up, everything is back to normal. I have the hard disk space that I should have. However, I am scared of damaging my hard drive due to shonky movie files that eat up all the space when they are played using QT player, and so I will not watch those files in the future, as I do not know why the files do that.

    thank you

    That seems to be supported only up through 10.5.7 and probably needs Rosetta for it to run.
    Rosetta is not included in 10.7.
    If this is the case, you may need to partition your hard drive, install Windows on it, and use that partition for your work.

  • "...cannot use the application "Address Book.app" with  'leopard.'...????

    I get the message: "You cannot use the application “Address Book.app” with this version of Mac OS X. "What does this mean, wat do I do? Do I lose my address book.?

    you can do the following to transfer your Tiger addressbookdata file to Leopard if none of your other countermeasures are working.
    Create a new folder and give it a name such as TigertoLeopard data or whatever;
    then drag your Tiger addressbook data file into that folder;
    add .abbu to the end of the name you gave that new folder;
    remember where you placed the folder and use Leopard Mail import command.

  • Lost address book when installed Lion

    I lost my content of address book after installing lion, address book now is empty, but I also have all the contacts in outlook. How can I copy/link/transfer to the address book from outlook?

    I have actuallly managed to sort this problem.
    First, in your main user directory unhide the Library (Go > Go to folder > Library).
    You'll find equivalent folders in there to most of your old Library.
    Go into Application Support > AddressBook and delete "AddressBook-v22.abcddb" (or move it somewhere safe).
    Next open a second Finder window and locate all of your old address book cards.  These should be in Library (the old one if you still have it) > Application Support > AddressBook > Metadata.
    Drag all of the cards to the Metadata folder in your new Lion Library.
    Start Address Book, and as if by long, drawn out, tedious, pointless and unnecessary magic, all your contacts should be there.
    cheers
