ADDRESS BOOK NOT AVAILABLE

For three months now... On standard version Safari, when I click on the
right to my address book the following appears.... "error loading
address book!" Thus, I cannot write any e-mails with auto load of
address NOR look up any addresses.Please help?

Well, Safari has nothing to do with Address Book; I think you're referring to Mail instead.
If you click on the Address Book icon in the Dock, does it startup normally, or does it crash? If it crashes, post the crash report here so we can see it.

    Why are books not available even though they appear as search results in Apple Canada iBook Store?

    You can only buy from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it. You can try requesting that they be added to US store, but ultimately it's the book's publisher that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    Are they available in other ebook stores/apps that you have access to e.g. Amazon/Kindle, Nook, Kobo etc ?

  • This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID

    hi
    i had two apple accounts
    and just wanted to change the primary email address for the both with each other
    when i changed the first one my old email cant be used with other account then i tried replacing my old email it doesnt replace it says
    This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID. You may already have an Apple ID associated with this address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID.
    please help me

    Yes,  I am having the same problem.  When I called apple they said that things were "tied up somehow" with another account that has a do different birthday than me.  Uuuuuhh?  So that means someone else can log in?... I have a feeling there is a big vulnerability with the three login options, just like with the current and past password retrieval. Apple had only suggested that I delete my current set up on my serviced and make a new ID and email.
    I Just got a new email and made a new Apple ID account For now. I was hoping the email would work itself out. I assumed If I could make sure everything was verified, not associated with another account, and try to get rid of the alternate id and second email option also used to sign in (seen in Apple ID management)  that could possibly be construed or mixed up with something else that it would eventually free up and become "available" again.  Unfortunately im still waiting In hopes in just needs to recognize the email isn't associated with anything.
    I have had a few major concerns with apple products lately especially with security. My iPhone 4s was hacked too. Some ******* was listening/recording and when I hooked to Internet he sent out the recorded portion that was available.  Talk about ****** up.

    All good, I loved with AppStore and now everything seems to be back to normal.

    I want to change my apple id but get the message "This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID. You may already have an Apple ID associated with this address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID.".  I try to log a call with apple support and I get a message like "cannot schedule a call".  That leaves me out of options.  Any ideas?

    Hi billfromwandering,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues changing your Apple ID. It is correct that if an email address has been used previously for an Apple ID, it can not be used for a different Apple ID, as noted in this article:
    In most cases, your Apple ID is also the primary email address of your Apple ID account. You can change your Apple ID to any other email address you control, as long as it's not already in use as an Apple ID. If your email address ends with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com, it's already an Apple ID. 
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    If you are certain that the email in question has never been used for an Apple ID and you are having issues contacting Apple Support regarding this issue, you may want to make sure you are going through the Apple ID support channel on the following page:
    Apple ID - Contact - Apple Support
    Regards,
    - Brenden

  • HT4489 address book not loading to icloud?  it works fine in .mac  but not .me com?

    address book not loading in icloud. loads fine in .mac account but .me will not load?

    [email protected] and [email protected] are the same accounts.
    Are you saying that you are trying to sync your contacts to iCloud?  Are the two accounts you  mention ".mac" and ".me" actually different in that they are [email protected]  vs.  [email protected]?  If so, your device can only use one account at once - and you should stick to only one account.

    You can upgrade to Mavericks free, just run the App Store program and search for Mavericks. But before you do upgrade I recommend the following:
    1) make sure you have a recent backup. TimeMachine is fine.
    2) Mavericks is somewhat more memory hungry than 10.7 was. You will need 4 GB of RAM and I strongly recommend 8 GB.
    Go back to the Apple menu and select About this Mac - look under the OS info you just looked at. You'll see how much RAM your computer has now. Then click on the More Info button. There you will see your computer info listed as in: iMac, 21.5" mid 2010, for example. Return back with that information and we can tell you how far the computer can be upgraded.
    If you decide to procede and you have enough RAM upgrading to Mavericks is quite simple. Click on the download button and let it do its job.

  • "Address Book (not installed)" in Organizer

    I updated both my device software (5.0.0.973) and my desktop software (6.0.0.43) this morning.  After updating, when trying to sync to Outlook 2007 after that to the address book, it gave me a 0x80040fb3 error and wouldn't do any more synching.  I tried to delete the pictures and the problem contacts in Outlook.  Same thing happened after that.  Then I tried deleting the data in the Address Book and restoring it from backup.  Now it states in the Organizer screen of the BBDS that  "Address Book (not installed)".  I attempted to go to setup and click on the box to enable synching, but it won't save my selection.  My address on the device has been messed up ever since the original upgrade.  It only says one name and doesn't give me any options.  I might have messed this up when attempting to delete files.  Don't know.  Anyone know how to restore functionality to my address book?
    The above error occurred one time with Tasks synching and one time with Calendar synching.  Tried to delete all problem entries.

    I am running 6.0.0.43 desktop manager.  I downgraded the device software, not the desktop manager software.  What I did was either click on the "Update My Device" button in Desktop Manager or close out of Desktop Manager and do the device update online.
    I believe both will get you to the same place and will eventually give you a screen where a button reads "View Other Versions".  Click on that button.  It will then show your current version and other versions which you can downgrade to.  Select the one you want and let it do its thing.  Make sure everything you currently have is backed up, because you will want to do a restore.

  • Can't sync Address Book note field to iPhone contacts

    Hi:
    I make heavy use of the "note:" field in my MacBook Address Book app. I store all kinds of detailed info about people, organizations, etc. in that field. I would like to be able to access that information on my iPhone 3G, but the phone's Contacts app has no corresponding "note" field.
    Could this be a result of the way I imported data into my MacBook when I first got it?
    In searching the fora, I found several people who said their iPhone contacts sync nicely with the Address Book note, and others who say it doesn't sync at all. Can anyone please shed some light on this for me?
    Thanks!

    Not quite sure what you mean by "editing" but I've tried every method of selecting, deleting, cursor placement, backspacing, and typing I can think of -- again, with and without the Edit button clicked. I did seem to accumulate a huge number of duplicates along the way, and there were more than a thousand cards in my Address Book; maybe I went over the limit?

  • Is there a way to add an image to Address Book notes?

    I've tried copying an image from the clipboard and then pasting it into Address Book notes.  I've also tried moving the image in different formats, TIFF, JPG, PNG, directly to the notes section of Address Book, but still with no success.  Is there some other way to make this happen?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    This isn't possible in Address Book on 10.7.
    You can send a message to Apple here :
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    And, maybe, they will add that feature in a next update; it could be an interesting improvement by the way.

  • How to import attachment into Address Book "Notes" field

    Is it possible to import an attachment into the Address Book "Notes" field? Jpg, PDF, pages doc, whatever...? Don't really care if the file is "visible" (IE if photo, can actually SEE photo)... a clickable icon would be fine.
    Thanks

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    I'm not aware of any direct connector provided by RIM for this purpose. They do supply an ASCII/CSV import capability...see this KB:
    KB11194 How to import contacts from an CSV file to the BlackBerry device
    You'd have to find out from AOL how to get your contacts exported to an ASCII or CSV file.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Dad set up an incorrect email for his Apple ID. I have deleted the ID but his email address is not available?

    Hi
    My Dad has set up his Apple ID with an old email address. I have deleted this ID and tried to create a new one with his correct email address. System is telling me that this email address is not available. What am l meant to do when this is Dads only email address? I have tried to answer the DOB question with no luck. I am trying to send to my rescue email address but l cannot get that option.

    Hi willett75,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like his email address may already be in use as an Apple ID and the system is directing you to try to reset that password via date of birth and security questions. Below is the link for assistance resetting a password, but in your situation, if you cannot get past DOB, it may be necessary for you to follow the link to contact Apple Support in the article.
    If you forgot your Apple ID password

    If these steps didn't help you to reset your password, contact Apple Support.
    Have a great day,

    If these don't work you probably have a hardware problem. Visit an Apple store for an evaluation or contact Apple Support.
