Addroess book is empty on my macbook pr

I have an iphone4 and have my contacts on it, however on my macbook pro the contacts in address book are no longer there, this happened after i did migration assistance, Can someone tell me how i populate my address book again, I am running SL now 10.6.7.
Thank you for your assitance.

Easiest way would be to simply sync your contact back from your phone through iTunes.

  • I downloaded a book on iTunes with my MacBook Pro and can't figure out how to open on my computer.  How do I do this?

    I downloaded a book on iTunes with my MacBook Pro and want to read the book on my computer.  Just can't figure out how to do it.  Do I need a program to read books on the MacBook first or is this something I can get in the app store?
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    You need an .epub reader.

  • I've created a photo book in iPhoto on my iPad.  When I go to order it, it says that "Your Book contains Empty Photo Frames" but when I check each page, they all have photos.  How to I order the book?

    I've created a photo book in iphoto on my ipad.  When I try to order it (by clicking the price of the book in the top right corner) it says that Your book contains empty photo frames - add photos to the empty frames, or change the page layout to include fewer photos" but when I look at each page, there are photos in all the frames.  What do I need to do to order this book??????
    Thanks so much for any help offered!

    It doesn't appear under the iPad device on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes, you need to select the iPad device on the sidebar and then select the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes e.g.
    And then on the right-hand side :

    From reading Vista forums support for SSD is one of the things Vista SP2 and Windows 7 hope (need) to improve upon. I was in a similar discussion once befoe on SSDs:

    I don't think it is EFI issue, but with XP and drivers, lack, and wonder if you can try with Vista?

    That won't solve performance issues, but should work.

    "My guess is that [Samsung and Microsoft] are maybe working on the OS recognizing an SSD with a 4K-byte sector size instead of a hard disk drive with a 512-byte sector size," Wong said.
    Sun is already working with Samsung to bulk up SSD support on the ZFS (Zettabyte File System), which is included in the Solaris OS, and will also be supported in Apple's upcoming Mac OS X 10.6, codenamed Snow Leopard. Sun is adding capabilities to boost the durability and performance of SSDs on ZFS-based operating systems. For example, Sun may add defragmentation capabilities for SSDs, which organizes data in a particular order to enable quicker data access.
    SSDs were not considered ideal for defragmentation because of limited read-and-write capabilities, Wong said. However, Samsung and Sun in July jointly announced an 8G-byte SSD that bumped up durability from 100,000 read-and-write cycles to 500,000. That brings defragmentation in SSDs closer to reality, which could improve its caching and provide quicker access to data. Sun plans to put SSDs into storage products later this year.

  • I don't know what I did but my whole phone book is empty. ?

    I don't know what I did but my whole phone book is empty. ?

    Hi. I'm new to the iPhone, but I have had iPods for 5 years or so. I don't know if it works the same, but here's what I know from my iPod experience.
    Each iPod is associated with a particular iTunes account. If you plug your device into your computer, it should see your iTunes account and do what ever you have set your iTunes to do when it sees your device (mine is set to sync automatically). If you plug into a different computer, it asks if you want to sync to that iTunes, and if you say yes, it will replace your content with what is in the other iTunes account.
    Still, you say it was your own computer that did this to you, so I'm a bit stumped. It sounds like when you had the iPhone 4 you had different content than when you got your iPhone 5. What was the difference? Songs, contacts, photos, apps, etc.? Do you still have the content of your iPhone 5 on your computer? I have only managed my iPhone with my computer, with the exception of downloading a few apps directly, but those apps get placed on my computer when I sync, so I was under the impression that other things that go directly to your phone would also sync, but maybe that's wrong on my part.
    You might want to open iTunes on your computer and go to Store>View My Account to make sure you have the correct log-in. Could it be that you made a new Apple ID with the new phone, and your computer is still logged in with your old one?
    Please post back if you find a solution, or if you have any new info.

  • , how do I import a book from Iphoto on my old computerPower book G4 to my new MacBook pro?

    how do I import a book from Iphoto on my old computerPower book G4 to my new MacBook pro?

    I just tried to move my old iPhoto Library from the G4 to a new Macbook. The G4 and files were very old, from 2001.
    When I opened Iphoto for the first time, it said it needed to "upgrade" the library", so I selected OK. It gave a message that this could take an hour or longer with a lot of photos -- I have around 9,000 stored so I figured it would take awhile.
    It finished in about 3 minutes, but there were no photos or albums to be found.
    I checked on the drive and iPhoto has converted the old library files and photo files to a "package" called "iphoto library" that has no file extension.
    If I show package contents, I can see a whole raft of new files, folders etc. I can see a file in there called "library6.iphoto" Some folders appear to be organized by years, if I dig down in the folders, all the photos appear to still be present. The general size of the "package" file is almost identical to the old folder, around 25.3 megabytes, so it seems all the photos and information is there, but its just not reading it.
    Now IPhoto still says " to begin, connect a camera, drag photos to iPhoto, or import a file.....
    I downloaded the "library manager" file and pointed it at the "iphoto library" file but it does not even see it.
    Grrr... what can I do to recover this.

  • Address book is empty after hard drive failure followed by timeline backup from Drobo

    Imac has been running very hot, hot enough to fry an  egg. It had a HD failure during this time and when the HD was replaced I expected the heating issue to be resolved as well. However it was not and so it has been at Apple store for a week as they try to find out what is causing the overheating. They decided it was because the RAM was running at 100% and yet could not find out why.  Backup was restored from a drobo raid.  They decided it was best to completely wipe it clean and then to start adding the apps back one at a time. I dont really know how to do this and I am concerned that right now with only safari and address running it is getting VERY hot again. There are 3 external HD connected. I dont know how but my address book is empty and I dont have evernote any more and I am confused as to what to do next and how to deal  with this overheating issue. I would appreciate any and all suggestions but please dont get too technical with me as I am probably much older than most if not all of you and work best with visual instruction. I follow every instruction EXACTLY so if Im told to look for  a specific app or file or whatever and it is called something different than the instruction I am given I will never make the connection so please if you can help be extremely accurate in your instructions. With trepidation and frustration I anxiously await HELP!

    I think you were probably given bad advice to wipe your drive. That's the sort of advice people give when they don't know what to do and just want to get rid of you. So my suggestion is to restore all your data from the last Time Machine backup that was made before the drive was wiped. Do you know when that was?

  • Address Book is empty after iSync & Hot Sync

    Hi,
    I have a Treo 650 and use iCal & Address Book instead of the recommended Palm Desktop. I was having trouble with the iCal retrieving information from the Treo, but after HotSyncing & iSync, was able to get the info updated. But now all the contacts in my phone are gone. The catagories are there, but no info. Not only that, but my address book is empty. I never backed up the info. Do you know where I can find the information hidden on my hard drive?
    Thanks,
    Robert.

    If you have not subsequently attempted to synchronize, you can attempt to restore your Address Book contacts by locating the AddressBook.data.previous file here:
    Macintosh HD:Users:<username>:Library:Application Support:AddressBook
    If you drag the AddressBook.data file to the trash, you can then rename the AddressBook.data.previous file AddressBook.data and launch the Address Book.
    As you've discovered, you need to periodically back up your contact and calendaring data, which you can easily do simply by selecting the appropriate Back Up… option under the File menu in the Address Book and iCal.

  • Why arent my books syncing on my new macbook pro or 5s

    After getting my 5s I was un able to sync with my old mac book, due to old software. We got a new pro, mostly because my girlfriend needed a new computer.
    Anyway, I signed into my match in ituned and all my music showed up, but my books arent there. Nor are they on my phone. They are on my OLD macbook, though.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone help me out?
    Thank you!
    Kevin

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • Can I use the migration assistant to migrate my Mac Book Pro to my new MacBook Air. Is there any problem with this since the platforms are not identical?

    I have Mac Book Pro ( bought November 2010) that I want to migrate all of the data and applications from, over to a new Mac Book Air? It was suggested that I use the Migration Tool as it is supposed to make an exact clone of the Mac Book Pro machine and put it on the Mac Boor Air. Can that really work if you are going from one platform to another?
    I was also told I could restore the data from my time capsule to the MacBook Air.
    I'm looking for the easiest method that will leave me with as little to do as possible to get up an running on the Mac Book Air afterwards. I'm not a real strong user and don't want to have to reconfigure applications to make them work.
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Connecting your MacBook Pro and your MacBook Air will be the fastest way, but you have to spend money on cables and adapters (also, your MacBook Pro doesn't support Thunderbolt).
    As you have a Time Capsule, one thing you can do is to start your MacBook Pro and make a Time Machine backup. Then, turn on your MacBook Air and set it up. Setup Assistant will ask you to restore a backup, so select the option to restore the backup from the Time Capsule and be patient. This can take a lot of time if you have to migrate a lot of files

  • I have completed the tutorial Adobe LR5 Classroom in a Book.  I have a MacBook Pro.  Every photo that I import from either my hard drive or the tutorial has red where white should be.  What in the world am I doing?

    I have installed LR5 on my MacBook Pro.  I have completed a book that had online tutorials called Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Classroom in a Book.  All of my photos that are in my tutorial and the ones that I have imported from my hard drive have red on them where white should be.  I see this immediately when switching from Library to Develop before I do anything to the photo except import it.  I would appreciate any tips!

    You are seeing red because that is the color of the clipping indicator. It is indicating that the whites are being clipped. You can turn off the clipping indicator by clicking on the little square in the upper right-hand corner of the histogram. Or you can adjust your highlights, whites and exposure until the red disappears. If you see blue on your photos that is indicating that the shadows are being clipped, and that is controlled by the little square in the upper left-hand corner of the histogram.
    As a side note, you can activate or deactivate both clipping indicators by simply pressing the J key while in the develop module.

  • IPhone 4 address book won't sync with MacBook Air

    I've been Googlin' my butt off, and called support three times (in which they won't help me because they say it's an iPhone issue)... Anyway, just purchased a MacBook Air; and my iPhone contacts will not sync with the address book.
    Any help would be amazing.  Thank you very much!

    Hey,
    So I kept looking for another answer and found this answer in another thread:
    "It is called "sync" for the reason it not called a transfer.  It wants and is designed to "sync" make each other match.  If it deleted all on the phone it is because you just had zero contacts in the address book on the computer (which on first sync is considered master copy).  If you put one dummy contact into address book on computer then try to sync it will see it needs to "merge" to get the sync process coordinated."
    I tried it out and it worked.  I originally already had one contact in my address book, but it was me and apparently I don't count as a human being, so I added the dummy contact and it worked after I clicked 'Merge'. Hope it works for you too.
