Address Book Syncrhonization not available in Desktop Manager

Hi all;
I'm a complete noivce BB user, so apologies if this is an obvious question.
I've synced my Bold's Address Book with my Address Book on my Mac and home and now would like to sync my work contacts through Outlook. However, when I attempt to use the Desktop Manager to do so. There is no option for the Address Book (just Calendar, Addins, tasks and memos).
Any thoughts?
Many thanks in advance...
Doug

Is the Address Book option missing or grayed out? I'm not sure why you're seeing add-ins in the list. In the list with 4 checkboxes there should only be Address Book, Calendar, Memos, Tasks.

Address Book Help is not available

I don't believe I have ever had Address Book Help. When I go to it, it will give me the prompts for Content, etc., but there is no information there.
Can someone assist me in figuring out how to download Address Book "Help". Would I go to my start-up disk and somehow just download that part? or is there a download on line which I can use?
I have no idea why it's not available. I've had the computer since 04 and seldom have needed to access Help in this regard. Now, I really need it.

Reconcile email messages option not available in Desktop Manager

I recently installed the Desktop Manager in an attempt to sync my new Tour with Outlook 07. After going through the install process, I went to the Synchronize option in the desktop manager and the reconcile email messages option is greyed out. I have a home office and do not have a BB Enterprise Server. In fact, there is not even an Email Settings icon available to me in the Main Menu of the desktop manager.  Any thoughts on how to enable this option? Thanks

That function is not available on a personal BIS account.
You'll need a BES account for email and messages reconcile, to Outlook.

MacBook Address Book Application Does Not Run

MacBook OSX 10.5.8 - Address Book application will not run - it shows up in Applications Folder but will not run - either double click or command File - Open. I have reinstalled the Address Book application with the original installation disk, which indicated the application was installed, still will not run. Rebooted, reinstalled again - same result -- the Applications Folder shows the file size as 1.4 Mb - updated today - the installation disk showed approx. 53 Mb was being installed - not sure if the Application Directory is only showing a command file or what - also ran the hardware diagnostic and found no problems. Software update shows current software is up to date.
Haven't used Address Book so do not know if it ever worked. Need it now to sync with IPhone 4. Any Ideas?

rjackjr,
After reinstalling an Apple application from the installation disk, it is also necessary to reinstall the latest Combo Update for the installed system. In your case that would be Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update.
Try that and see what happens with your Address Book application.

Aperture library not available as desktop or screensaver option

Aperture library is not available as desktop or screensaver option. Nor is it available in Fotomagico. Any ideas?

Go into "System Preferences" -> "Desktop & Screensaver" -> "Desktop"
Scroll down the list on the left. The top categories should be the Apple default desktop images that came with Snow Leopard. Below that you should see iPhoto and it's events, albums, etc. Below that you should see Aperture with your projects listed below that.
Do you at least see the projects listed or does Aperture not even appear? Or is the problem that you aren't able to select any of the images from a project?
If the latter I'm wondering if you're missing previews. You might go into "Aperture" -> "Preferences..." and pick the "Previews" category. Make sure the check boxes are selected for "New projects automatically generate previews" and "Use embedded JPEG from camera when possible" (if your camera shoots in RAW+JPEG mode then it'll use the JPEGs from the camera as the preview instead of building it's own.)
You can force it to update previews but note that since it normally wants to generate previews automatically the 'Update Preview(s)' isn't a global function... it only rebuilds the previews for images you have selected (which means you have to go into each project, select all images, and do a "Photos" -> "Update Previews"
Beyond this, you'd probably need to run Aperture first-aid to determine if there is some corruption in the Aperture library preventing it from being used.

Address Book Server will not sync all fields with iOS client

Hello,
I am getting really frustrated with my Mac Mini Server.
Apparently, the Address Book Server DOES NOT sync all fields.
Only standard vCard-fields seem to synced.
I have not successfully synced user-defined fields, such as an additional date.
Any ideas / infos on how to achieve this if this possible at all?
Thanks for the input,
Erasmus
One thing: I posted the same question in the "Lion" (non-server) discussion - sorry for any confusion.
One thing I noticed:
All changes made on the server in the OS X Address Book are distributed to two iOS clients (iPod 4th Gen iOS4 iPhone 3GS iOS 4).
Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for answering myself...
I just found out that after editing the newly distributed entry on an iOS4-Client, some fields on the server are deleted!

When I delete a name from the address book it does not delete it from the drop down name menu when forwarding a message. How do I remove it from the drop down menu?

When I delete a name from Address Book it is not removed from the name drop down list when forwarding a message. How can I remove it from the drop down list?

In Mail go to the Window Menu and select Previous Recipients. Deleting entries from there won't delete them from your Address Book.

HT2486 want to know how to add pictures to address book that DO NOT appear as fullscreen images on the iPhone but remain as icons with the iPhone background visible

want to know how to add pictures to address book that DO NOT appear as fullscreen images on the iPhone but remain as icons with the iPhone background visible (see attached image). for some reason, all new contacts added through Mountain Lion appear as fullscreen caller ID images.

This would be better addressed in the iPhone forum, I would post there as well.

How to access address book that is not on startup drive

I have an external hard drive that is from an old computer of mine. How do I access the address book on that drive without making it my startup drive first?
Thanks.

easy on all caps there
you can do the following to combine address books. start Address book, select all the contacts currently in your address book and drag them to the desktop. that will create one big vcard with those contacts. then quit address book and replace the folder that I told you about with the one from the backup drive. start address book. it will look like it did on the backup drive. drop the vcard you have on the desktop onto the address book. the addresses will be imported.
warning: this procedure will migrate all addresses but will destroy any groups and smart groups you currently have in AB.

"VLAN(s) are not available in Port Manager" in 7613

Dear Sir,
I got a problem when I try to create a VLAN in a 7613 router. The screen capature like the following:
router(conf)#vlan 1045
router(conf-vlan)#exit
VLAN(s) are not available in Port Manager
The VLAN is failed to create. The VLAN range which is failed to create is from 1001 - 1060. Is there any expert that meet the similar problem? and what should I do to solve the problem? so that I can create VLAN 1045?
Thank you very much!

Extended Range VLAN - FAIL
I was reading an old post on CCIE talk about extended range vlans and I learned something new. The post is here:
CCIE Talk
If a Catalyst switch has any routed ports then it uses an extended vlan as an "internal vlan" for that port. Why? I don't know but it's something to take caution with if you run into any issues.
Check it out:
SW1#sho vlan internal usage
VLAN Usage
Now let's create a routed port:
SW1(config)#int f0/24
SW1(config-if)#no sw
Now we have VLAN 1006 taken up:
SW1#sho vlan internal usage
VLAN Usage
1006 FastEthernet0/24
SW1#
What happens if we try to create or modify VLAN 1006? Let's see:
SW1(config)#vlan 1006
SW1(config-vlan)#exit
% Failed to create VLANs 1006
VLAN(s) not available in Port Manager.
%Failed to commit extended VLAN(s) changes.
00:06:13: %PM-4-EXT_VLAN_INUSE: VLAN 1006 currently in use by FastEthernet0/24
00:06:13: %SW_VLAN-4-VLAN_CREATE_FAIL: Failed to create VLANs 1006: VLAN(s) not available in Port Manager
SW1(config)#
FAIL. What if we were supposed to use VLAN 1006? Shut it down, enable VLAN 1006, then re-enable the port.
SW1(config)#int f0/24
SW1(config-if)#shut
SW1(config)#do show vlan internal usa
VLAN Usage
SW1(config)#vlan 1006
SW1(config-vlan)#exit
SW1(config)#int f0/24
SW1(config-if)#no shut
SW1(config-if)#exit
SW1(config)#do show vlan internal usa
VLAN Usage
1007 FastEthernet0/24
The switch uses the next number.

Best Solutions For Offline Address Book on Workstations Not Updating Frequently Enough?

We use Exchange 2010 SP2 and we set Outlook 2010 to Exchange Cached mode by default for all workstations. This seems to work OK for the majority of email most of the time, but because we are very frequently adding and removing external mail contacts
and and adding and removing them from distribution lists, the GAL and distribution lists memberships are frequently out of date in the middle of the work day.
Sometimes the users can manually download an updated OAB assuming it has been updated on the server, but sometimes the OAB is not updated yet and redownloading the OAB solves nothing. It is a lot of hassle, confusion about bounced messages and
missing contacts and phantom names in distribution lists with this method.
I notice that for mail contacts, there is an All Contacts address book that is live, but it does not include include anything else other than contact addresses. Distribution List memberships are still out of date until the OAB is updated on the server
and then downloaded to the Outlook client. This is taking too long.
Is there a keyboard shortcut to force the client to do a GAL address lookup in online mode rather than using the cached OAB?
Can Outlook display both an online and offline address book for the GAL and let the user manually select online version of the GAL if a contact or new mailbox or DL has not synced to the OAB yet?
If we set the registry key to force online address books even when Outlook is in cached Exchange mode, is there any performance downside for PCs on the LAN other than the GAL being unavailable when the network is not available?
Would the Exchange server have a significantly higher load if most PCs were accessing the GAL without an OAB cache?
If we should not expect a significant increase in server load or network traffic, we might set desktops to use online access to the GAL and only laptops to use OAB.

Hi,
If users are accessing the GAL without OAB cache, definitely it will increase in server load and network traffic. If you are in cached mode, one suggestion is to define that in Send/Receive Settings:
Go to Send/Receive Groups -> Define Send/Receive Groups
-> Select the account and Edit -> Select
Include the selected account in this group, and check Download offline address book -> Click
OK -> Go back to Send/Receive Groups, select the frequency for automatic send/receive(Schedule an automatic send/receive every x minutes.), and then close.
I hope this setting can help in your scenario.

List of email clients/address books that will sync with palm desktop 6.2

Is there (and if not, I think there should be) a list somewhere of email clients whose address books will sync with a palm Treo (palm Desktop version 6.2)? I have been happily using various palm handhelds for about 6 years now and have been syncing the address book with Mozilla and now Thunderbird for the last couple years. I currently have an m130, but it's time to upgrade to a "smart phone" as I'm tiering of carrying around two devices. Unfortunately, the Treo requires palm Desktop version 6.2 which is not compatible with the Thunderbird palm sync. I have had the idea that Outlook (which I've never used or been exposed to) will sync with palm, but something I read gave me the impression that I would need to buy some third party software to make that happen, plus the $110 they want for Outlook. I would like to think there are other choices for someone who just wants to sync their smart phone with their email client's address book. It seems that such syncing ability would be esential to palm's sales and that a listing of all such syncing possibilities would be extremely beneficial to sales, particularly for new sales to people aren't already insiders on this sort of topic. The lack of ability to sync with Thunderbird may just cause me to stick with my old m130 awhile longer and give up on the idea of a nice new smart phone.
Post relates to: Palm m130
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Wow, thanks a bunch! You just saved me from a long, involved, and discouraging search for an alternative. I'm using WindowsXP, palm m130, palm desktop 4.1, Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 and Thunderbird's palm sync conduit palmsync-2.0.0.x-wsm . I'm wanting to purchase a Treo 700 on ebay, but went to the palm site, clicked on the support link, then the Treo 700, then the downloads tab and it directed me to desktop 6.2, which made me believe I would have to use that to sync a treo 700.
I do wish that both palm and Thunderbird would talk more about the palm Thunderbird palm sync. Unless you're a real geek or very determined (I'm the later), you're not likely to find out that such capability exists. I can't believe I'm the only one out there who needs to have my email client address book contacts with me all the time, so there has to be others who are looking for this.
Next stop, ebay - I have a smart phone to buy.
