Address book on Left side

Is there a way to have the address book on the left side where the inbox is and other folders ?
I searched high and low and cannot find a way to make this appear, a couple of months ago when I had my iMac I could have sworn that this could be done or happened upon setting an email account up.
Thank you
Michael

I've been using the Mail.app exclusively since Jaguar was first introduced, with Panther and now Tiger and the Address Book has never been available in the mailboxes drawer.
You can add "Address" to the menu bar which brings up the same Address Book panel available when composing a message but not in or for the mailboxes drawer.

  • Any ideas why one address from a group in address book is left off emails all others show in address bar of mail?

    I have a group in address book and when I either type first few letters of the groups name into a email form or open a new email form by right clicking on the group name in address book and choosing open new mail one of the addresses, always the same one, is always left off. I have checked the addresses and they are correct and when I use edit distribution list from address book the entry is shown in bold, which I believe shows its included. The address was added after the original list was made by dragging the address into the group, any ideas what I've done wrong please?
    on both macbook and imac

    It sounds as though you may have exceeded some of the limits of Address Book in iCloud.

  • When forwarding an e-mail I have lost the address book contact list on the left side.

    I used to have the address book contact list on the left side of the page being forwarded to allow easy selection of addressees. It's gone and I need it back.
    Thank you very much

    Open a Write window and press F9 to toggle the Contact Sidebar on and off.

  • Address Book Sharing: are custom fields shared or left behind

    I want to share an Address Book on one system with 3 other users through MobileMe. I will also allow the 3 other users to add, delete and change the contacts. All 4 systems have their own MobileMe accounts.
    We make extensive use of custom relationship fields. Will those fields transfer with the with the shared contacts, or are they left behind?
    (I know that only a limited number of relationship fields (no custom fields at all) in Address Book are available to Pages and Bento)
    I've looked all over the Address Book sharing information (that I can find), and the issue of custom fields does not seem to be addressed in connection with Address Book Sharing.
    Can anyone recommend any documentation that answers this question?
    Is there any real (detailed) documentation at all about Address Book Sharing?
    Thanks for your help.

    @taylor thanks for the suggestion, but it's not quite what i had in mind. The red -/green + buttons are used to add/remove more items in the same category, ie., phone numbers, email addresses, URLs, etc. If you finish editing a record and then click on one of these fields, you get a contextual menu with various options.
    But, my Skype name is not an email address, nor is it a phone number. It belongs in the IM section of the Contact template, but unlike the "Custom" option for labeling a Phone Number, the IM drop-down menu doesn't have a Custom option, nor a Skype option.
    There are several possible workarounds, but that's the point, innit? Skype has been around a long time - there shouldn't be a need for a workaround.

  • After a disk crash and recovery disk reload, I'm left w/o address book. any suggestions for a recovery?

    There is a discontinuity in time machine, I think it happened last week. I've used the recovery disk partition and time machine, as well as Super
    Duper.  The time machine full restore left addressbook and mail disfunctional.  I then ran Super
    duper, which recovered Mail, but not address book
    Any suggestions?    BTW, as far as I know, the data for address book is still in the Library, it'"s only the app that's  Missing

    Thanks for your reply John, but that didn't do the trick for me. I called Apple's professional audio support. Even though I didn't get the answer I wanted to hear, the support was awesome - the guy was very knowledgeable and helpful. Basically, the error I'm experiencing is a nasty one if it appears with pro apps like Logic. He indicated my only recourse was to re-install Logic. Since I'm on Logic 7, I figured if I have to re-install, might as well upgrade to Logic 8. I'm mid-project right now, so I'm pretty nervous doing that, but not much choice.

  • 'Stop' icon (no text) will not display if beside address on left side.

    I customized Nav tool bar by moving all icons to left end and in 'Show' picked icons only (no text). The 'Stop' icon is there while Customize is open but when 'Done' is clicked, 'Stop' icon disappears. You can put the 'Stop' icon anywhere else and it remains, but not next to the left side of address. How can I fix this?

    That is intended. You only see the Bookmarks Menu button if the menu bar is hidden.
    Firefox 4 has two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window.<br />
    One star button has a drop marker that open a Bookmark menu.<br />
    The other star button without the drop marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar.<br />
    <br />
    You can drag the Bookmarks menu button with the drop marker in the Customize window from the toolbar palette on a toolbar (e.g. Navigation Toolbar or Tab Bar or to the left side of the Bookmarks Menu Items).<br />
    You only see the Bookmarks menu button if the menu bar is hidden.<br />
    If the bookmarks toolbar is visible then the default bookmarks menu button will appear on the right hand side of the Bookmarks Toolbar as part of the Bookmarks Toolbar Items.
    Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end side of the location bar.
    To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:
    * Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

  • How do i get the refresh button to not disappear after i have moved it to the left side of the address bar in firefox 8?

    when i customize the toolbar i moved the refresh button to the left side of the address bar, i also put the stop button and home button there as well. but after i click done when i have finished only the refresh bar disappears, but i can click customize and it reshows up in the same spot only to disappear again after i click done. it used to work just fine in firefox 3.

    I've attached a screenshot. You may have to move one of the buttons around a bit until it settles down. Alternatively you can also add a '''Separator''' ('''View''' (or '''Alt''' + '''V''') > '''Toolbars''' > '''Customize''') between the two.

  • On the left side of my address bar it is showing that firefox has blocked content that is insecure, whenevr I'm using facebook or any other apps related to it.

    Firefox is blocking content from almost all the websites.
    It is even showing that for this page.
    Every time I refresh the facebook page/ an app on the facebook this will appear.
    Previously it used to crash firefox, then I upgraded it but since then it is just keeping on blocking if the gray/ geen colored padlock is active on the left side of the address bar.
    So every time I get this error I have to refresh the page & again disable protection on the page.
    If the website is verified then is firefox blocking almost everything.

    Hello,
    I would recommend running the latest version, Firefox 25. Improvements are always being made based on user feedback.
    Starting in Firefox 23, if a secure page includes certain types of insecure content, Firefox blocks the insecure content and a shield icon will appear in the address bar. See this article for more information about the new mixed content blocker: [[How does content that isn't secure affect my safety?]]
    To temporarily allow the mixed content to be displayed:
    *Click the '''shield icon''' [[Image:Mixed Content Shield]] in the address bar and choose '''Disable Protection on This Page''' from the dropdown menu.
    [[Image:Fx23MixedContentBlocker]]
    To allow insecure content to be displayed in all secure pages, enter '''about:config''' in the address bar and double-click on this preference, to toggle it from true to false:
    '''security.mixed_content.block_active_content'''
    You can also use this add-on instead, to toggle the preference:
    *[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/toggle-mixed-active-content/ Toggle Mixed active content] add-on
    You may want to do this only for the current session, then reset the preference back to "true" and check back with the site to see whether it's been fixed, since this is a global setting that exposes you on all sites, not just the one you care about.
    Let us know if this helps!

  • Why don't the names from my address book show up to the left when I compose a message? They did in Windows XP

    Previously, when I clicked on "write", a column of names from my email address book would show up to the left of the message box and now they don't.
    When I imported the personal and collected addresses, two folders of each showed up: an empty "Personal Addresses Book" and the "Personal Address book" that I had imported. The same happened with the Collected Addresses. I wonder if this is part of the problem.

    Open a Write window and press F9 to turn the Contact Sidebar on.

  • My "send" button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared also. How do I retrieve these items?

    I have never had a problem sending & or receiving e-mail prior to the past few days. All of a sudden the Send button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared too.
    I did find some help which suggested opening the Write and then press F9 to retrieve the address list. The address list returned on the left but does not appear as it used to ie. full length of the screen. However what is now there will be satisfactory. The "Send " button is still missing which is frustrating as I have not been able to send any e-mails for approximately a week now.
    Would appreciate advice as to how to retrieve the above.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for your advice re: the SEND button having disappeared and also the address list on the left side having disappeared. I must confess that I was not able to get it back myself. This a.m. my computer would not turn on at all. I therefore contacted the company which services it, namely iTOK and a technician read your suggestions and after a bit of manipulation of various things he got them both back. It seems that I had not noticed the "press the alt key" as part of it due to the fact that the 'alt key' was not 'ALT key'. My fault for skimming too quickly. Thanks again for your advice...it worked and now i am back on track.

    Sounds like you need a #1SMC Reset
    1. SMC reset
    >>Instructions to reset SMC
    Disconnect other non-Apple and external hardware except (if applicable) a mouse and keyboard until your finished repairing your machine.
    Problems solved: Fans blowing with no activity, machine is not booting, power button pressed and nothing happens, problems with indicators, Magsafe has wrong lights, battery is not charging, monitor and graphics issues etc.  If the battery is not charged (from like letting it sleep too long), let the Mac charge up awhile afterwards.
    Will not hurt the machine resetting if it's not broken.
    Other related hardware problems (optional):
    Check battery status: Hold option/alt key down while clicking on the battery icon in the menu bar, top right corner.
    Magsafe: Use the correct/matching power supply charger with your Mac, not a less powered one from another Mac.
