Address Book/Mail: sending to two addresses from one contact in a group

I would like to send an e-mail to two addresses from address book, but it is only one contact/family name. It seems it only lets you pick one for a group. Does anyone know how to pick multiple e-mail address for one contact name/family in a group so I don't have to manually look up each name?
Thank you!

Rather than dragging the card in from the Address Book, start typing the person's name. Mail will give you a pop-up menu on choices. Pick one. Then repeat and pick the other. This is less convenient if you want to put someone in a group and send to both addresses in the group... in that case, V.K.'s solution is the best you'll do.

  • Address book - How to create a letter from a contact

    Is there a way to create a letter to a contact in Pages - correctly addressed - somehow? The same for an Email? I'm new to Mac and this was a function used in Windows Outlook everyday many times. Right-click on a contact and "new letter to contact" or "new Email to contact".
    Can you at least copy the whole address - and only the mailing address relevant fields with the recipient's specific country format - in one go?
    I can't find the way to do it but it is impossible such an important feature would have been left out.
    How does it work for the Mac? Thanks.

    If you go to print, you have the option of printing an envelope with their address and your return address on a #10 envelope using either home or biz addresses for each.
    Play with clicking on the labels. I often use the Large Type if I'm going to call a phone number. Also mapping an address is a useful feature.

  • Is there a way to send an e-mail to everyone in my address book WITHOUT typing/selecting each address in individually?

    My old e-mail address is going to be discontinued and I need to notify everyone in my Mozilla Thunderbird address book. Is there a way to send an e-mail to everyone in my address book WITHOUT typing/selecting each address in individually?

    Bonjour zmerill
    Yes it is possible and simple to do.
    - In the compose window of TB, display the address books on the left
    - select the adress book you want
    - select normally the first contact (left click)
    - while pressing a shift key, select the last contact (--> all selected)
    - just under the last contact, use the button you want.
    In an address book it is also possible to create a mailing list.

  • How do I create a group in my address book to send and e-mail to multiple contacts

    can I set up a group in my contacts / address book to send the an e-mail to multiple contacts?
    I have mac book pro & I-pad 2 running latest operating system.
    Thanks

    Yes you can by creating a group and then dragging the contacts in to it. However, since iCloud, the Edit Distribution List feature has been grayed out. Without that feature, it is not possible to specifically select a single email address for those contacts that have multiple email addresses. A major flaw that will hopefully be fixed.

  • Blackberry desktop manager 5.0 won't sync windows address book/mail

    Hi,
    before I upgrade my laptop to win7 64 bit with DM 5.0, I had Vista 64 bit with DM 5.0 and I was able to sync windows address book.
    Now on my win7, I can't select it anymore. I install the same software what I use on vista to win7. I use a blackberry tour, OS 4.7.
    Like the picture see here : http://images.crackberry.com/files/u7860/Outlook_Sync_Selection.jpg
    you can see that you can select windows address book/mail.
    I try on win7, to install the latest DM, but still can't check windows address book/mail. I uninstall it, reinstall DM 5.0, also no luck. I remove intelisync, try again, still no luck.
    Any idea how to get the it to sync with windows address book/mail ?
    Thanks

    So, since it is a selection (from your image), what happens when you select it?

  • Using Address Book to send SMS via Bluetooth

    Hi all,
    I recently upgraded to 10.4.6 (from 10.4.5) to take advantage of the new iSync support for the Nokia N70.
    (I had previously been using a modified Metaclasses.plist hack for this and prior to the upgrade to .6, restored the original .plist)
    I also followed the advice in Apple article 303419 about removing the phone from iSync.
    So, upgrade fine and re paired phone with iSync but now find that I can no longer use Address Book to send SMS message or dial a call to current contact.
    This worked fine with the hack!
    Any ideas?

    I am using OS X10.4.6 via Bluetooth connecting to Nokia N70 also. I have no problem with iSync and file transfer. But I can NOT send and receive SMS from Address book.

  • Possible cause of Address Book & Mail issues following 10.5.5 upgrade

    Dear all,
    Upgrading to 10.5.5 caused problems with Address Book on my computers.
    In my situation, the problem was due to 'Smart Groups' with NOT conditionals. The existence of 2 such smart groups caused Address Book to become unresponsive and ThunderBird/Mail to crash as they were unable to look up the Address Book.
    This may (or may not) have been the cause of the problem. I am also running The Missing Sync and the Google Maps plugins -- so there may have been other conflicts. All I can say is that by rolling back to 10.5.4, removed the offending smart groups and rolling the forward into an empty 10.5.5 Address book fixed my problems.
    Unfortunately, even selecting the problem smart group then means that Address Book becomes unresponsive. Unfortunately quitting (which I was still able to do) and re-opening still leaves Address Book unresponsive -- as there is a default selected group set in com.apple.AddressBook.plist.
    HOW TO AVOID - BEFORE UPGRADING TO 10.5.5
    Remove any smart groups with NOT conditionals when in 10.5.4.
    NOTE: Exporting to an Address Book archive format still includes the smart group definitions. While this will not fix your problem, it will give you something to work with ... back in 10.5.4.
    HOW TO FIX -- DISCLAIMERS
    It was possible to fix -- but I do not know if this is a sound approach (clobbering Address Book files? -- probably not) AND if you do not know your way around some key directories YOU COULD CREATE ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS.
    It would be advisable to try testing this on a temporary account first. This means you are also going to need to know about permissions -- Address Book Archives appear to be some kind of package format.
    HOW TO FIX - IF YOU HAVE ACCESS TO A 10.5.4 MAC
    It is possible to create an Address Book Archive from 10.5.5 and then import that into a 10.5.4 account, remove the offending smart groups, re-export as an Address Book archive and then import this into 10.5.5.
    However, to do this does involve editing the relevant Addressbook.plist files (10.5.5), then exporting as an Address Book Archive (from 10.5.5), importing (to 10.5.4), editing (in 10.5.4) and then exporting (from 10.5.4), clobbering the 10.5.5 Address Book database and then importing (into an empty 10.5.5) Address Book database.
    HOW TO FIX - IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A 10.5.4 MAC
    It is a little simpler (fewer steps) but you will loose all of you groups. In this situation you will need to export all of your address book entries as a vcard file (better export an Address Book Archive as well -- just to be safe), clobber your 10.5.5 Address book and then re-import the vcard file.
    HOW TO FIX - IF YOU HAVE A 10.5.4 BACKUP
    Alternatively, roll back to before the 10.5.5 upgrade (ie to 10.5.4). Edit your smart groups. Export an Address Book Archive (just in case) and then re-apply the 10.5.5 patch.
    GOOD LUCK
    When I contacted AppleCare they were very helpful but did not have any visibility of this particular problem.

    After I sent this initial post I did some more testing.
    Creating a new Smart Group in my now working 10.5.5 address book which has a NOT conditional caused Address Book to lock-up again.
    My Smart Group was pretty simple -- 'list all cards that are NOT a member of any group'.
    So, the steps in the posting above do NOT fix the problem, they only identify a particular type of Smart Group which will cause a problem and how to get a version of Address Book working again.
    I have not gone back and undertaken a thorough set of tests. I am just not going to create any new Smart Groups without first creating an Address Book Archive -- or alternatively overriding Library/Application Support/AddressBook from a Time Machine backup if there is a problem.

  • Unsure of what happened to my address book, mail, and app store?

    My address book, mail, and app store are missing! Did they come with the computer when I bought it? (I have Mac OS X 10.6.8 and I bought it about 2 years ago) They all have different problems when I click on them. For starters, they three look like this in my app folder
    Then, when i click my address book, it comes out all smushed like this: ( i had to crop out much of the image due to personal information, but all information and links are smushed)
    The app store, when clicked, force quits immediately.
    & lastly, the mail will not even open. no blank screen, no force quitting apple message, nothing. infact, to quit the mail program, i have to force stop it myself.
    I really want to use these things and I just don't understand why they dont work, shouldnt they be included with my computer? that's the impression i was under, i didn't know i had to purchase the app store, mail, or address book? why wont they show up and what can i do to fix this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by Find My Mac.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Drag and dropping an address from address book to the desktop, the address file does not go where my mouse is positioned.

    If I drag and drop an address from address book to the desktop, the address file does not go where my mouse is positioned. It winds up somewhere in the middle of my screen. Any way to have the address file land and stay where my mouse pointer is?

    You have to assign the favicon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click the shortcut: Properties) after you have dragged the link to the desktop.
    You can usually find the favicon in Tools >Page Info > Media and save the icon there.
    Otherwise use the main domain of the website and add favicon.ico (e.g. mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder.

    Why does Lion KEEP reversing changes you make in address book and other applications without your consent and without wanting it to??? Plus address book will NOT import old address book contacts from Snow Lepoard 10.6 and keep them.  This Lion OXS 7 is .. becoming very frustrating ... it will NOT keep changes made in the Address Book and it has destroyed my contacts which I only have electronically since 10.4 in my address book. I am NOT happy with this OS7 it has a lot of issues and faults.  How can one stop automatic reversing of data when inputting???
    Please help! 
    Wished I NEVER upgraded to this Lion!!!

    Relax. Your address book database is corrupted.
    If you are syncing your Contacts with MobileMe or something else, disable it for now.
    Backup your address book by going to File>Export>Address Book Archive.
    Quit Address Book.
    Open your Library by holding down the Option (alt) key while selecting the Go menu in Finder. Select Library. Navigate into your Application Support/AddressBook folder and delete the addressbook-v22.abcddb file.
    Open Address Book. It will recreate the database from the raw data.
    See how that works. If it is ok, then reenable syncing and see how that works.

  • Drag and drop an Address Book card onto a Pages address field

    Whenever I "drag and drop" an Address Book card onto a Pages address field, it hangs for almost a minute before the address appears. I don't believe this is normal, does anyone else have this problem?

    Sounds like you "upgraded" to Pages 5.
    Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
