Address book not opening

My address book is not opening in Leopard, I get a message saying that address book does not work in this version of OSX, can anyone enlighten?

I didn't to my knowledge do an archive and install, though the old version was still there, as I just sent it to the trash. Thankfully I was able to extract the new address book using pacifist as you recommended, thanks for that. (useful program )
I have another query, cover-flow is supposed to have pointers if you hold the mouse pointer over a document or movie, so as you can move through a document or open a movie, these pointers don't appear in my cover-flow ???

Why will my address book not open it says not supported on this architecture

When I clicked on my address book widget a received a note that says "not supported on this architecture" and would not open my address book.

When I select the AB application in the applications finder when I click on it it gives me the same message about not being supported by this architecture. I can tell you I bought this computer 3 years ago. Sorry I warned you I am NOT a computer person that is why I have a mac

Address Book Never Opens

I have looked over many postings and have tried some of them. However, I am unable to get my address book to open (it just flashes in and out of the dock) at all. Here is a selection from my crash log. Any suggestions?
Date/Time: 2007-06-30 23:57:49.033 -0700
OS Version: 10.4.9 (Build 8P2137)
Report Version: 4
Command: Address Book
Path: /Applications/Address Book.app/Contents/MacOS/Address Book
Parent: WindowServer [55]
Version: 4.0.5 (487)
PID: 508
Thread: Unknown

You say you reinstalled Address Book, but haven’t explained how, which is essential information that you should have provided from the very beginning. It appears you “reinstalled” it by copying it from another computer running a different version of Mac OS X (10.4.10), which is a really bad idea.
Regardless of what the original problem was, fixing the problem you currently have would require either properly reinstalling Address Book, or updating the whole system to the version of Mac OS X that the version of Address Book you currently have installed expects to be running on.
Quit all the applications and verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, in the Finder go to /Applications/, move Address Book to the Trash, and reinstall it 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 it 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 10.4.9 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update for PowerPC
Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update for Intel
Alternatively, you may want to install the latest Combo Update instead, as Henry suggested, which should make reinstalling Address Book itself first unnecessary:
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.
You may also want to read the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk and back up before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

I believe the duplicate address book accounts stems from the move from MobileMe to iCloud and both accounts still being active.
This is how I merged the two address books:
1) To make sure all the contacts are in both:
a) I selected On My Mac account - clicked on any address - Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the iCloud account - answered OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
b) same in reverse: select the iCloud account - click on an address - click Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the On My Mac account - answer OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
In system preferences I found an iCloud icon and also a MobileMe icon. I was logged in under both.
1) In the Address Book preferences I selected iCloud and unchecked Enable this account.
2) In the Address Book I selected iCloud and clicked on the minus “-” to remove that account – leaving only the local Mac address book.
3) I went into system preferences and logged out of MobileMe
4) In system preferences I opened iCloud and the “Contacts” was not selected (from above) and I selected it.
I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to merge the iCloud contact with the local contacts – clicked YES.
… spinning wheel for a minute … voila – only one address book account – iCloud with syncing to iCloud and my iPhone.

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.

Clicking on an e-mail address will NOT open Windows Live Mail which is already the default mail program which is already set as the default mail program

Clicking on an e-mail address will NOT open Windows Live Mail. Windows Live mail is already set as my default e-mail program.

Sorry you're having this problem. I think it was previously reported only by Windows XP users.
When you reinstall, were you making Firefox your default browser? Some users have reported that ''not'' making Firefox the default browser was an effective workaround.
However, you may have success with this approach, suggested by a user in another thread, which appears to more thoroughly update the Windows registry:
# Open Adobe Reader / Acrobat
# Edit->Preferences
# In the Categories column click 'General'
# Near the bottom of the page click the button marked 'Select Default PDF Handler'
# In the dialog, select 'Adobe Reader XI' (or Adobe Acrobat, as the case may be) and click 'Apply'
# A Windows Configuration screen will appear. Allow it to do its stuff (takes a few minutes), then restart your computer when prompted.
Does that resolve the issue for you?

Anyone having the letter n pop up in Address Book Notes? Anyone able to tell me how to keep this from happening?

Anyone having the letter n pop up in Address Book Notes? Anyone able to tell me how to keep this from happening?

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
Ian

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!

When emailing a group from address book it opens individual emails....

When emailing a group from address book it opens individual emails for each name rather than one email with all email addresses listed. Have I set things up wrongly or is there something I can do to have a single email sent to multiple addressees via Address Book?

Hello,
When addressing an email for this group, are you
entering only the name of the Group as the address?
More info, please.
Ernie
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, it works directly in Mail - type in group name and all's well and lovely - but if I'm in Address Book and want to email a group it opens numerous emails. THere seems to be no way of opening Mail from Address Book and go straight to emailing a group.
