Address book for tiger

Hey guys. I just deleted my address book app completely. is there any way i can download it from a website or can i get it from software cd. Thanks

Hi Ralph.
You can reinstall Address Book as described in the second part of the following article:
Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4
Note that Address Book may appear grayed out in the installer, but will be checked if you check Applications there, and will be installed if Address Book has been removed from the /Applications/ folder.
If the version of the system software on the Install discs is earlier than what you’re running now (and only in that case), then you must also reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re running, to bring Address Book back in sync with the rest of the system:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for PowerPC
Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for Intel
After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.

Is there a place to download address book for tiger?

I was dumb and pasted my address book from my laptop which runs 10.5, to my G5 which is still on 10.4...so I pasted the address book application to the G5, overwriting the original file and the new file doesn't want to open...so is there a way to get the old address book from somewhere??

You don't need to download Address Book, nor can you. It's on your 10.4 install/restore disc. You just need to insert the disc, navigate to the Optional Installs folder, open the Optional Installs.mpkg file and check the box to install Address Book and run the installer.
You will also need to run Software Update to update your system to 10.4.11 if you haven't already done that, or apply the 10.4.11 Combo Update again to update Address Book to the latest revision for Tiger.

Address Book in Tiger 10.4.3 keeps losing track of the data file

Address Book in Tiger 10.4.3 keeps losing track of the data file associated with it and creates a new file without the data I used to have.
Any methodology to follow to correct this issue?

I think Import would be better, or Migration Assistant, I'm thinking AB changed formats from 10.3 to 10.4, but the stuff for 10.4 For Address Book...
Files...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist

Separate address book for my wife and I

I reently switched to Mac and this is driving me crazy. I would like to keep our computer under one user so we don't have to switch user profiles to access her address book or if I update and address in my book, it doesn't get updated in hers. But, when I go to address e-mails I don't want her huge list of names being auto-suggested and me having to sift through all of her addresses in order to find the people I want to address the email to. The question: Is there a way to keep all of our addresses in one address book (one user profile), but when I am logged into my mail, Mail knows to only look in MY address group for the email addresses I specify, instead of pulling up my wife's rediculous sized (and often unorganized) bunch of addresses. I don't want to accidentally slip up with the arrow keys and add one of her recipients to an outgoing email. Sometimes my wife's friends wouldn't appreciate emails that guys send to each other if you know what I mean...
Thanks for any help...and please tell me there is a way to separate my wifes email address book from mine...please tell me Mac thought of this.
PS I've tried the whole 2 user profiles thing and the idea of seperate address books for updating sake and other reasons, I'd like to try the single profile thing.

I thought Mac would be better with their mail client than this.
But Mail has nothing to do with this at all. Address Book is a completely separate application, and it's that way for good reason; it's not merely a whim.
I can't imagine what Mac is thinking that if a family of 5 uses the family computer, that all 5 people's email addresses clog up the search for the person writing the email at the time.
Each user has a separate Address Book (and other applications like Mail and Safari) to keep that exact scenario from happening, as well as to keep people out of each other's accounts so things don't go missing, private emails aren't being read by overly curious people, and so your account doesn't get screwed up by someone else playing with things they shouldn't be touching.
Are there any third party apps or plugins I can download in order to tell Mail that when I am in my account to only search for the contacts in a certain group that I create?
Sorry, but there's no such things available. It would be impossible for your Mac to become sentient and know what you created versus someone else creating.

Can not Create Address Book for new Supplier

Hi,
I am trying to create a supplier in R12. Under create Address Book for the supplier, I have created the address and when I select the operating unit and click apply, I am getting the following error:
Address and Site Creation - Unable to create address and sites because of the following error when trying to create the site in operating unit [Anirudh Operations]: [ORA-01403: no data found in Package AP_VENDOR_PUB_PKG Procedure Validate_Vendor_Site]. Either resolve this issue and try again or deselect the operating unit with the error and continue. Note: any new address requires at least one site in order to be created.
Oracle Version: 12.0.4 - Vision Database.
Am I doing something wrong here?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Sasibindu.

Looks like the responsibility you are using is pointing to a new operating unit created by some one. But for that operating unit all the fundamental options are not complete (financial, purchasing, payables and so on). Hence you are getting this error.
If they are setup, you can try adding this operating unit into your security group associated to the MO: Security group profile and try.
If not use the Vision Operations responsibility and give it a try.
Thanks

Lotus Notes 5.x Personal Address Book for mailings?

Is it possible to use the Lotus Notes 5.x Personal Address Book for mailings in StarOffice 7?
There is no direct choice for Notes in Extras/Datenquellen.

You will need to check to see how you configured CCM Enterprise parameters. most of the time, the pararemeters need to be set to IP address, not hostname. I find hostnames for the CM servers to be a pain in the rear for "services" "directories" etc.
Unless you want to configure DNS on the IP phones to resolve the hostname of the CM5 server, then then it will also work. But your problem is that your phones configs think that the Directories URL is http://cmhostname/xxx/xx instead of URL http://ipaddresscmserver/xxx/xx

Using Address Book for mailing labels

I know how to use the address book for mailing labels, but when I went to print I had children's names appear on the labels. Is there a way to request souces, but not children. In other words can you select specific information to appear on the labels. Or do you have to go into address book and delete the kids names. Any advice would be great.

There are several 3rd-party applications which will print mailing labels from your address book data and give you greater control of what is printed.
Roll Call Directory and Imprint have both been mentioned.
I don't know how they handle linked cards, so if you try either you might let us know.

Address books for another user sharing my computer for now

At this time I am sharing this computer with one other person ..I have set up and named another address book for them.
Is there a way that their email addresses do not get added too mine.. is there a setting where we can set it up so each one has there emails being added to their own addy book.. At the moment there emails are being added too mine... this problem will be ongoing fpr a period of time....
Thank you in advance. :)

''re: At this time I am sharing this computer with one other person .''
Usually, when people share a computer, each user has their own User Account which they logon using a password.
This means that Thunderbird then runs in that User Account and creates a profile in that User Account which holds all the Profile data, emails, passwords, address books etc specifically for that users email address mail accounts.
So then no one can read each others emails nor access other peoples passwords and they can use their own address books.
So if you are sharing a computer and sharing a Profile, then it is advisable that you do not have any stored / remembered passwords, unless that person is eg: spouse and you do not mind them having full access to all your personal stuff.
You have a couple of Options:
'''1.''' Create User Accounts on your computer so that each user has their own User Account, Create a Thunderbird Profile folder and set up mail accounts storing personal emails and address books.
This is the only method offering best security.
'''2. ''' Create another Profile for the other person. then create mail account for that Profile. This will then have it's own folders, address book.
Use Profile Manager to create another Profile.
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager
Make sure to uncheck the box 'Don't ask at startup' to force it to ask which Profile to use.
Any user can still access any profile.
'''3. ''' In current situation.
Stop auto saving outgoing email addresses that are not in the address books as this uses only one setting per Profile.
Tools > Options > Composition > Addressing tab
uncheck: 'Automatically add outgoing email addresses to my'
click on OK
Then you would need to use an Addon in order to be able to select a specific address book when you wish to add the email address/contact to an address book. At the moment, if you click on the FROM header email address or right click and select 'Add to address book', this adds to the default address book called 'Personal Address Book'. This you cannot change because you are using the same User account and Profile.
But with the addon 'MorefunctionforAddressBook'
Right click on eg: From header and choose > Save recipients addresses' > as Contacts
This allows you to select the address book you require.
Addon 'MorefunctionforAddressBook':
* https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html
Download to desktop.
In Thunderbird:
Tools > Addons
Clickon on gear wheel icon and select : Install addon from file;
locate file you downloaded and click on Open
You may need to restart Thunderbird.

Company's Address Book for external contacts

Hi all,
I'm currently deploying a new Exchange 2013 in a company who had a different email system, so far.
One of the achievement would be to have an address book for external names (so, not in AD) shared within the company but managed only by a restrict number of people.
As example, list of vendors contact. The list should be available read only for everyone, but only the IT Infrastructure and few other people in the management should be able to add/remove/change the items.
Whato would be, in your opinion, the best solution to achieve that?
I was thinking using Public Folder. Create a sub-PF of contact objects and restrict permission accordingly. The only issue I can see, so far, is that seems not possible grant permission on a group basis to PF. Am I missing something here? It's the first
time I'm working with PF in several years :)
However, if there's a different solution you may advice, I'm all ears.
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated!
Thanks in advance to everyone.
Alessandro.

I was able to solve this myself.
Security groups has to be enabled on Exchange before being used to assign permission to PFs:
Enable-DistributionGroup -identity <SecurityGroup>
Add-PublicFolderClientPermission -User "<SecurityGroup>" -AccessRights
'<AccessLevel>'
Hope this helps someone.

Smart Groups possible in Address Book for PANTHER?

Can you tell me if "SMART GROUPS" is just something in TIGER's version of ADDRESS BOOK or do these exist in PANTHER as well? Actually, I'm not sure what they are, but someone mentioned that I should use them...
Thanks very much!
Regards,
Steve

Steve,
"Smart Groups" are not available in Panther. This is the Tiger definition of Address Book Smart Groups: Smart Groups are group addresses that Address Book automatically updates with new contacts when they fit the criteria you've specified for that group. For example, if you create a Smart Group for all the members of your swim club by searching for "swim" in the Note field, then every time you add or change a contact and put "swim" in the Note field, that contact is automatically added to your swim club Smart Group.
You can also create a Smart Group by entering a word or phrase in the search field in the upper-right corner of the Address Book window, then choosing "Save Search" from the Action pop-up menu near the upper-left corner of the Address Book window.;~)

Can't copy address book from Tiger PowerPC to Leopard Intel

I have been trying to help a friend who bought a new macbook and is trying to move the contents of his address book across to his new Macbook. I can't find the Vcards on his old computer and don't know how to go about finding them. Would it help if he upgrades his old computer to Leopard?
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks
Kevin

Thanks for your speedy reply! I am the guy who who was looking for the answer. So are you saying to just drag the entire address book itself in the doc directly into the new Mac Book?
no, I'm not saying that at all. please read my post. it says what you need to copy.
I already tried that but if did not read the V-cards properly perhaps because of the difference between Tiger and Leopard and one having an intel and the other not.
no, that is not a problem.

Transferring Netscape email and address book to Tiger

How do I transfer old emails from Netscape to Tiger/Safari?

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
I have transferred mailboxes, but will have to research whether I bothered with the Address Book info or not. Also, I think I may have done this from an earlier version of Netscape -- again would take some research, if still available, and that old computer is stored.
In the Mail folder from Netscape, you should find the various mailboxes, listed by name, and in Tiger their Icon will be sort of a black rectangle -- do you have these? This will be the file WITHOUT the extension .snm. If you take one mailbox and place it in a folder xxxx, and rename the file so placed to be simply "mbox" (without the quotes), and then rename the folder to be xxxx.mbox, you can then import it as a Type Other mailbox, I believe.
Do this mailbox at a time. Or alternatively, prepare each one, as above, and after quitting Mail, open the Mail folder in a Finder window (Home/Library/Mail) drag them into the Mailboxes folder of the Mail folder for Tiger, and furthermore delete the Envelope Index file at the first level of the Mail folder, and relaunch Mail. Mail will say it is ready to import your mailboxes, but allow this to continue, and Mail will really only be re-indexing all the mailboxes, including the ones from Netscape. After you have confirmed the mailboxes can accessed, quit Mail again, and in the Finder open Mail, and Mailboxes and then open each xxxx.mbox folder -- you will find the file Info.plist and a Messages folder, along with the original mbox file. The latter is no longer needed, but first compare the size of the Messages folder with that of the mbox file.
Keep me posted, and ask any questions needed.

How to format numbers in Address Book for iPhone

I am planning to get an iPhone within the next few weeks and have begun entering all the numbers from my current cell phone into Address Book so that I'll be able to sync it with the iPhone. Since I never had to sync these numbers with anything other than my .Mac account, they are all entered like this: (555) 555-5555. Do I have to format them differently so that I will be able to use them on the iPhone. And do I have to add a "1" for each number or can I have the iPhone add that automatically?
Thanks.

entering like your example works fine. Just remember that if your entering phone # outside the US use the "+" symbol. example +46 35 46678 67
