Adress book - sms service

I´ve just gotten my macbook, and i´m brand new to the whole deliscious mac-things.. I´ve gotten my mac to sync with my sony ericsson W800i, and now i want to send text messages via it from the adress book. How to? I´ve activated the bluetooth-function in both the adress book and on my phone, and clicking the number i want to send to i´ve sent some messages.
But nothing seems to happen, no-one has gotten any of my messages - weird..
Any suggestions? Is there something wrong with the setup of either my mac or my phone?

You may have seen it elsewhere, but this sorted out my problem. I have a K800 and I had exactly the same issue as you - it would appear to working from the Mac (BT showing connected, SMS option enabled in AddressBook), but no SMS messages were sent. Similar symptoms for the dial feature as well.

Problems with sending SMS from adress book

Hi all,
I have a new Kotorola MOTOKRZR K1 here.
The Bluetooth connection with iMac is ok. I can send data to phone and I can receive data from phone, but I can't send SMS from adress book v4.0.5 (487) to the phone.
The bluetooth button in adress book is disabled. I can click on this button, but address book open in this case always a dialog: "Pair with bluetooth device".
When I click on the "pair" button, then I can enter my access code vor the phone.
It is the access code from Bluetooth Assistant program for the phone.
my question is, Is here a user, who can send a SMS with MOTOKRZR K1 from adress book?
With my old Siemens S55 is this no problem.
Sorry for my very bad english.
Greetings, Bermd

did this ever get resolved?

Was anyone succesful in sending sms with adress book through motorola phone

Hello,
was anyone? There is here and there posts one the topic but it is unclear to me is there a general solution or just people succesful?
What is weird that apple official list of supported phones has my motorola v535 phone. It is detected correctly by bluetooth assistant, but adress book service is not listed as available. Though apple list says both isinc and adress book services are available for this phone.
Anyone any ideas?

I just got a Motorola E815 and found out that in order to access the phone via Address Book like you said I need Tiger. I've been thinking of upgrading.
I did get my iBook to use the cell phone as a dialup modem over bluetooth, but then found out that Verizon doesn't allow it. (another story altogether. grumble grumble)

Adresse book & Nokia N70

Hi
iSync and N70 is ok.
But, I can't use Adresse book with my N70 (can't send and receive SMS, can't compose ...)
On adresse book, i have the bluetooth symbole,
when i clik on, i can't connect on N70.
How do i do ?

As hrs1364 said, your phone is likely having a virus. The N70 works on the old s60v2 operating system which is prone to viruses.
However, the virus could either be in the phone memory, or in the memory card. The procedure specified by hrs1364 would only work if the virus is on the phone memory, but not if it was on the memory card.
I would suggest you to remove the memory card and reboot the phone, and use it without the card. If it behaves normally without a card, then the problem is on the card which you have to format. If it keeps on acting up, do a hard reset.
Remember that doing a hard reset erases all your data, so be sure you have a backup of contacts, messages and calendar. Do not backup or restore settings and files as the virus would be included in the backup.

My Adress Book shows strange behavior, cannot search or edit

Hi folks!
I recently updated to Lion, also switched my .me to iCloud. At first everything was perfect, now I am experiencing strange behaviours:
I am starting to add fotos to my contacts because I like the view in Mail.app where the contact fotos are shown in the list of emails. After I added some more photos I cannot search in the address book anymore. Typing a name into the search field and nothing happens. Also clicking on a name an nothing happens on the right side. Absolutely nothing. There's only one entry that does not change and when hitting the "edit" Button, only this one contact is changed. Also this one contact changes when doing a right click on a contact name on the left side.
I did some searches here but did not find anything. What I did was deleting the "AddressBook-v22.abcddb" in the ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ Folder as suggested in some other threads but this does not change anything.
This is really annoying and I cannot use my Address Book which I really need. I have more than 2000 contacts inside and it's essential for my business!
Please help!
Thanks and best, Jochen

OK, seems like I can replicate the behaviour:
- repair Disk Permissions
- restart MBP (do not open all apps again)
- after reboot, only the Finder is open
- open Address Book
- click on contact name on the left side, brings details on the right, editing works also -> great!
- click in the search field and type a name
-> no filter of the list or search result appears
- click on any contact left hand side, nothing happens on the right, the last clicked contact before the search remains open
- double click on contact name opens separate window as expected
- no search possible anymore
- no editing possible anymore
-> again repair permissions, and restart and same procedure ...
this is Adress Book 6.1 (1062) on MacBook Pro 17'' with 10.7.2

Lost all my concats in my adresse book

I was putting new adresses in my adresse book and there in 2 sec, the were all gone.... is there a way I can get them back???????
Thank you

I am sure your English is much better than my German, Italian, French, or any other language would be. I have once been to the beautiful city of Geneva, Switzerland and am amazed at the ability of its residents to master several different languages, and their kindness when dealing with Americans like myself who can barely master just one. But I am still not clear about some of the things you say. I will do my best to make myself clear to you by numbering the important questions I must ask about this, and then discussing what I mean about each one:
1. When you say "new files without name show up," where did these things show up?
In the main Address Book window there are 3 columns. On the left is the list of groups. In the center is the list of names of all contacts (people or companies) in the selected group. On the right is the information about the selected contact. The information in the right column includes things like names, email addresses, street addresses, a picture of the contact, and so on. In English, Apple calls each contact a "card," because it is like a business card or a card in a rotary office file.
Did these 20 new things show up in this window? If they did, which column did the show up in?
I ask because none of these things would be a "file." When you create a new entry (a new "card"), all of the information is blank at first -- no name, email address, or anything else. You can do this by clicking the "+" button at the bottom of the name list. This may be what you did, but you would have to do it 20 times to create 20 new blank entries (cards).
2. What did you highlight when you "try to delete only this one"?
Was it in the group or name column, or something in the contact information? Is is possible you highlighted more than one thing?
3. How did you try to delete this one?
If not with the "-" button or keyboard, did you drag something to the trash, or use the menu?
I am not sure any of this is important because it does sound like you somehow have lost all your contacts. I ask these things only in the hope that I do not understand what happened.
If your Mac is new or you are still covered by Applecare, it might be best for you to contact Applecare in your country for better help than I can offer you. You may also want to try posting here in your own language. I won't understand you but someone else who does may be able to help you more.

Is there a way to specify which fields are displayed in the "new contact" window in the adress book, or at least highlight the ones that are important to me?

It would be nice if I could put together the fields in the "new contact" window in the adress book, or at least highlight the ones I need with bold letters or a different color. Is there a way? Thank you.

No method I am aware of.
This add-on adds many features, but I don't know if what you seek is included.

Use emails and adress book from a different user

I bought a new Imac and start using it.
Then when I tryed to restore the back up that I have on my other macbook, that I did on Time Machine, it went to a different user.
Now I have 2 users.
There are 2 apps that I can not use with me new user (Things and Email-direct) and can not acess mail and adress book from the other.
I have already install everything on my new account. What should I do to use the email and adress from my different user account?

No problem except for a minor nuisance when it's time to update the apps. Depending on how you do it, you might need to log out and back in again but, in any case, you must have both passwords.
The iTunes library can hold purchases made with multiple Apple IDs as can the iPod.

How to avoide multiple duplicate entries in adress book?

How to avoide multiple duplicate entries in adress book? I can add the same contact name and number more than twice and the phone isn't warning me at all!!! I's quite a heck for me.

not possible from inside AB AFAIK. but you can do the following. in finder open the folder /users/username/library/application support/address book/metdata. switch to the list mode and sort by date modified. quicklook the vcards at the top to see which ones they are.

Outlook 2010 - cannot setup SMS service

I've tried to set up a sms service in Outlook 2010 (Win8), as specified here:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/send-and-receive-text-messages-sms-HA101823438.aspx
on a laptop connected to broadband network (SIM card etc) - so using "Third-party text messaging (SMS) service" option.
However, there is no "Text Message (SMS)" item in the "New Items" tab. I can see nothing in the Options that would help to enable this.
I've tried to add to the ribbon the ""New SMS" item, but it is not active (grayed).
Best regards,
Mariusz

You need to configure a Text Messaging (SMS) account firstly

Icloud adress book in os 10.6

How do I sync my iCloud adress book with the adress book I have in OS X 10.6.8
Thx

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
The official way is to upgrade to OS X Lion and Mountain Lion and merge them on iCloud. However, you can do it on Snow Leopard > http://ihelpyourmac.com/wordpress/?p=23
This, at least, will show your iCloud contacts, but maybe you can't sync them with your stored contacts

Changing multipel Adress Book entries at once?

Heya everybody.
Does anyone know any way to change like a 100 Adress Book entries at once?
I have a bunch of contacts that work at the same company. And say for example that the company changed name from Banana Computers to Banana Hardware and I just want to change that one thing for all my contacts?
I have seen a similar option in almost every other Mac OS X applications, iPhoto, iTunes etc. But I can't seem to find it in Adress Book.
Even if it's not in there, I think there should be some Automator work action for it. But it seems that the Automator actions for Adress Book are totally useless. And I've searched for new ones.
Please help this is killing me.

You nee to use Applescript. Try this one.
AK
click here to open this script in your editor<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:400px">tell application "Address Book"
repeat with ThisOne in people
if organization of ThisOne = "Banana Computers" then
set organization of ThisOne to "Banana Hardware"
end if
end repeat
end tell</pre>
(The recent upgrade to the discussions has disabled the link that allows direct opening of a script, so run Script Editor and copy in the script.)
