Address Book, how do I see what account the contact is from?

In OS X Lion, Address Book, I have many names listed 2,3,4 times. Would like to know what account they belong to (Exchange, On my Mac, Mobile Me etc.) so that I can delete the extra ones.
In address book, can I select the contact and see what account the contact belongs to?
Hope so.
Thx Much

Thx Matt,
Not sure you know what I want to do. I have numerous contacts in my address book, some are from my exchange account, some stored on my Mac and some from Mobile Me.
If I see the same name three times is there a way I kno what account each of the duplicate name belongs to.
Hope I said this right.
Thx Much
..holding down the "option" key when I click on to a contact does not seem to do anything.

  • HT2486 how do I know what account a contact is in (Icloud, on my mac, etc) if it is already in my address book. also how can I change an existing contact to my iCloud account?

    I have upgraded to Lion so that I can use iCloud.
    when I select a contact in the address book, I can't tell what account it is in,
    and I can't change the contact to iCloud if it's not already in that account, so the
    contact comes up on my other devices.
    This seems like a very basic function,yet if I want a contact to be on iCloud, it
    seems I have to create a new contact with iCloud selected in the preferences.
    is there another way?

    Happy to help.
    Some good news:
    Address Book will become Contacts in Mountain Lion and the addition of the Group column to the display will make working with differnt accounts a bit more obvioius and easier.

  • How I can see what accounts I created with my family pack in my old mobileme account?

    Any ideas how I can see what accounts I created with my family pack in my old mobileme account?
    i updated it when we need to migrate and all emails are active and being used.
    i need to update an email address. we use this for my personal company and need to keep the email in
    the same format so it matches the others in the company. i dont see it anywhere in my account now.
    i am using a .mac format. thanks.

    In order to see which devices are authorized on your account:
    Open iTunes
    Click Store
    Click Account
    Click View Account
    Enter your password
    Look in the second section iTunes in the Cloud
    To the far right you'll see Manage Devices
    Once it's clicked you will see all of the devices currently authorized in iTunes/on your account
    I was going to say, "Hope this helps," but based on the above, I'm pretty sure it did!
    Thanks guys...

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

  • How do I see whats on the cloud

    I am trying to sync my new PC to the cloud. On my Mac Book when i went into I tunes there was a sync button to click. I don't see that on the I tunes app that i just installed on my PC. Some of my music has come over from my I phone but not all of it. How do I see what's on the cloud?
    thanks

    When you connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, then click on the name of your phone, you should see the Sync button on the lower right.  If it says Apply instead, it's because you changed your sync settings and iTunes is waiting for you to apply the changes.  When you click Apply, iTunes will sync your phone.
    To transfer music purchased from the iTunes store from your phone to your iTunes library, authorize iTunes for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase it (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Note: this will only transfer music purchased from the iTunes store.  Transferring music from other sources from your phone to iTunes requires using 3rd party software such as Touch Copy.  (If the music is on your MacBook, you can just copy it to an external drive or memory stick, then import it to the iTunes library on your PC.)

  • How do I see what I've backed up from another phone?

  • HT2486 How do I see what groups a contact is in?

    In my address book...how do I see all the groups a contact is in?

    HI,
    Great, it works!. However, I have one additional doubt/issue. I use to have ALL my contacts assigned to a group (1760 contacts, 9 groups). Since I am adding new contacts "on the go" using my iPhone, there is no way to assign the new comers to a group using the iPhone, so I have to wait till I get my iMac at the of the day or the week. The question is easy: how do I know which contacts are not assiged? (other than going through the entire list pressing the Option key, of course)
    Thanks!

  • How can I see what drive the music I download is going to?

    How can I see where the music I download and put in Itunes is being stored in?

    To find out where a file is stored, select the item in iTunes and choose File > Get Info. The path to the file is shown at the bottom of the Summary pane (the Where section).

  • When creating a photo book how do I know what size the cells are?

    I'm having a hard time getting my photos to fit appropriately in the cells. Regardless of the size of the image I almost always get an exclamation point warning.

    An "exclamation point warning" indicates that your print resolution (pixels per inch) may not be sufficient to print in the book at "best quality", it does not indicate "fit"..
    Work with your full-size images. Do not resize your images by exporting.  Do not crop- the same can be achieved in the Book module.You can zoom in on the book page image to effectively crop. You can make images "Fit" or "Fill" any size image cell.

  • V card for address book? anything underway? need to attach contact info from address book to email, other than my own data.

    Outlook had this nice feature allowing v card attachment for any contact in the address book to be attached to outgoing email. Will Thunderbird ever have something equivalent? Currently using Select Address book Text add on but still not V Card attach simplicity.

    There is an addon which can help.
    MoreFunctionsForAddressBook.
    * https://freeshell.de/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html
    Download file to desktop or downloads file.
    In Thunderbird
    Tools > Addons
    or
    Menu icon > addons
    click on gear wheel icon and select 'Install addon from file'
    locate the file you downloaded and click on Open
    You will need to restart Thunderbird at prompt.
    In 'Address Book'
    right click on contact in list and select 'Send as vcard'.
    If you want to add more than one vcard:
    Press Ctrl key and select contacts to highlight, then right click on highlighted contacts and select Send as vcard'.
    This opens a new Write message with that contact(s) added as vcard attachment(s).
    There is also the option from the 'Contacts Sidebar' in a new Write window, but I'm not having any success from this method at this moment...maybe it will work for others...perhaps due to a bug, but I've reported it the author. At least it still works via Address Book.

  • TS1420 how can i see what accounts are synched to my iphone

    You can see which devices are currently set up and/or logged in by signing in at iCloud.com on your computer.  Then click the Settings icon or select your name from the top right, then select iCloud Settings. A list of devices using your account will be displayed.

  • How can I see what MCS the customer has?

    Hi!
    I am trying to determine what kind if HW the customer has, to see if we can use the existing server for the CCM4.2 upgrade or if we need a new one.
    When looking at the server I could see that it is a 7815 (tower) and when doing a msinfo32 in the "Run" field I could see that it is an IBM machine with 1Ghz CPU and 512MB RAM, the model was 847931X, which I assume is an IBM xSeries 200 8479-31X.
    Maybe you aren't the right forum to ask but the Swedish Cisco accountteam did not have any clues, to I thought I just might try you guys.
    Buying a new server seems very unnecessary if they don't need to do it.
    Best regards, Johan Andersson

    you will at least need to upgrade your memory.
    cisco currently recommends a 7815-I1 or IBMx206. these servers are 3 & 2ghz respectively with 2gb ram.
    how many phones does it need to support?
