After upgrading to 10.8 all the data in contacts on my Mac is gone.

The contact data is there in the iCloud but mail on the Mac can't see it. I've disabled and enabled contacts in system preferences several times with no effect. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I can use mail in iCloud but prefer it on the Mac.

One final point to note, Mail won't let me import them as .mbox files. I have to start by trying to import .mbox files, but then it says 'error' when I select the appropriately named mbox folder. I then have to select Apple Mail instead and the navigation dialogue brings up the same list of sub-folders, but I simply select the sub-folders I want to import without navigating away from that list item, then it works OK. If I were to navigate away from that list item which displays sub-folders, it would be replaced with a big icon of a mailbox instead and would remove the ability for me to import the sub-folders. Were I to click on the icon and try to import, it wouldn't import.
In effect, I'm having to fool Mail into allowing me to see the contents of a .mbox folder then changing to importing Apple Mail in order to select the sub-folders.
A bit weird but the only work around. POssibly because they are already V2 folders?

    Only possible if you have made an iTune or iCloud backup before the update.

  • Everytime I try to update to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get an error containing 0xE while it is trying to backup data from the iPhone.  I have done everything suggested in Apple support.  How can I upgrade to iOS5 without losing all the data on my phone?

    Everytime I try to update to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get an error containing 0xE while it is backing up data from the iPhone before installing the new operating system.  I have done everything suggested in Apple support with no success.  I still get the error everytime (about 5 minutes into backing up iPhone data).  How can I upgrade to iOS5 without losing all the data on my iPhone (the error message says that if I continue I will lose all data on the phone)?  If I have already synced the phone before upgrading the OS, would I be able to restore my data after installing the new OS by syncing after the OS upgrade is complete?  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive.  I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location.  After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing.

    I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive.  I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location.  After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing.  Is there any way to recover the data?  Thanks for any help.

    I may have found an answer here:

    They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

    Connect phone to computer.
    Select Restore.
    Tell iTunes which of the available backup files to use, let iTunes restore it.
    Also, try reading the User's Guide as it answers questions like this.

    is there another way i can download the update? it just never work, tried multiple time

    The most common causes are:
    Your antivirus, firewall or router security is blocking access to Apple's servers - try temporarily disabling them - if you have Kaspersky this is definitely the problem
    At some time in the past you used this computer to jailbreak, unlock or otherwise hack ANY iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad - if this applies to you your hosts file is corrupt and you will have to edit it and remove any lines that contain "gs.apple.com"

  • Will upgrading to windows 10 delete the data from all drives

    A notification for upgrade to windows 10 is available for my mentioned notebook. I've never upgraded to a newer version of windows earlier so i wanna be sure if the upgradation would delete all the data from each drive(i.e. windows drive"c" along with D,E and F)) and what is the total amount of NET-DATA(in MB) will be used for Upgrading online..so that i might not run out of data balance during upgradation process. One more thing..currently the windows 10 logo has arrived at the bottom right of my task bar. Do REPLY asap!!!

    Always back up your data when upgrading! It will only if you tell it to during setup.  I would not upgrade untill you have backed up important data manually (copy>paste) to another external hard drive.

  • Fire Fox sent not all the data in text form. Reached only piece of information. Where can I find the cache of sent text?

    Fire Fox sent not all the data in text form. Reached only piece of information. Where can I find the cache sent the text?
    For example, I posted an article on a news site, but found that only a small part of my article was posted.

    I'm not sure whether Firefox saved that information. There is a chance that it is in the session history file, especially if you haven't closed that tab yet. To check that:
    Open your currently active Firefox settings folder (AKA your Firefox profile folder) using
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Find all files starting with the name sessionstore and copy them to a safe working location (e.g., your documents folder). In order to read a .js file, it is useful to rename it to a .txt file. Or you could drag it to Wordpad or your favorite word processing software.
    The script will look somewhat like gibberish, but if you search for a word in your article that doesn't normally appear in web pages, you may be able to find your data.
    Any luck?
    For the future, you might want to consider this add-on, although I don't know how long it saves data after you submit a form: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-recovery/].

  • Record all the data acquired by DAQ

    Hi all,
    I have a problem when I tried to record all the data acquired by the DAQ card. My DAQ is NI 6259, and the Labview version is 2009.
    Basically, what I need do is using multiple channels to get the voltages of different point, then I subtract values of two channel (V+ and V-) to get voltage value between two points. In my vi, the sampling mode is continuous and the rate is 100 KHz, DAQmx reading is inside a while loop, and the numbers of samples per channel is set to be 100. After each loop execution I would get 100 data.  I just used the format into file to write the data into a .txt file. It seems after 1 loop only the last one data is recorded instead of 100.  Previously I averaged the 100 data inside the acquisition loop to get one data, so the writing function is OK but it really slows down the program. So I want to write all the raw data to txt file so later I can process them in Matlab.  Is there any way to achieve this? Thank you very much.
    The attached is the my vi for 2 channels voltage measurement and the current source control sub vi. I am new to Labview so the question really bothers me even after I read some similar topics in the forum.
    Regards,
    Hongxiang

    Thank you for you reply. I tried that, it actually record more data per pulse than before, but less pulses were  recorded (there should be 8 pulses in 20 seconds time but only 2 were recorded), I think it was because the for loop inside slows down the program execution, and sometimes the error 200279 occurred.  I think it would be better to separate the reading and recording process. Someone suggests me rather than writing to the file inside the loop, accumulate the data from all of the loop iterations to generate one large array containing all of the samples then pass that to Format Into File outside the loop. Do you know how to achieve that? I tried the as below, it seems totally wrong , only two data was written. 
    (The subvi nameed 1 (see attachment) converts the 2D array to 1D ) Thanks.

  • After upgrading to iOS 8.3, the keyboard has frozen up  and I can no longer text or access my contacts.  I've re-booted the phone several times, to no avail.

      After upgrading to iOS 8.3, the keyboard has frozen and I can not longer text or access my contacts.  I literally just upgraded to an iPhone 6, but I'm just about ready to can this phone and go with an Android.  Can anyone help or have the same issues?

    Im having the same problem. This started with iOS 8 and Yosemite. Im in a group message with 10 people with and without iPhones. Currently have 9 threads and when ever a new person responds a new thread forms. they all have the same people but in a different order, that may be part of the reason why iMessage doesn't recognize them as the same conversation.
    As I'm writing this post 3 new threads opened and other people with and without iPhones are mentioning the same problem
    hope apple can fix this. VERY annoying

  • I have an apple iMac G5 running Mac OS 10.4.11 can i upgrade it to 10.5? if so will i also loose all the software currently installed on my Mac? eg. Adobe software.

    I have an apple iMac G5 running Mac OS 10.4.11 can i upgrade it to 10.5?
    If so will i also loose all the software currently installed on my Mac? eg. Adobe software.
    I have moved countries (opposite side of world) so i do not have my install disks, or the disks that came with my Mac.
    Where can i get the 10.5 upgrade from?
    Do i need my original disks that came with my Mac?
    - Thanks if anyone can help
    Note:
    I have never had any problems with my G5, it's been my awesome helper these past 7 years, I can't say the same thing for my new Mac, but it seems now my poor G5 is slowly being made redundent because they no longer write software for it.
    I don't see why i should pay for a new Mac because my old one does not always function on the web, or having a new printer because it does not support the new software.
    My New Mac Laptop has had no end of troubles since i bought it less than a year ago.
    What happened to Mac being a sign of Quality??

    First off, all upgrades can potentially break a system.  First and foremost, backup your data before installing anything.  Next read this tip as 10.5 loses Classic compatibility, and has these other issues outlined on the tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2275

    after transfering data froAm my pc to mac using windows migration assist, where do the data go to on my mac please?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    By default, Migration Assistant creates a new user account where it puts all the transferred data. Just go to  > Log Out, and log in the new user that Migration Assistant has created, so you will be able to access to the transferred data.
    If you want to merge the data into the first user account, use the Shared folder (it's in /Users/Shared) to put the transferred files there, and then, on the first user, go to the Shared folder and put all the data in the folders you want

    Lost all contact info.  All my Aps are there but all the data/progress is missing.  When I plug my iphone into the usb fto synch up with my itunes on the computer a message comes up and says "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup file".  This is very frustrating

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

  • Analyse big data in Excel? Why the dynamic tables doesn't take all the data from the source table.

    Hi,
    I'm doing a internship in a production line.
    My job is to recover production data (input data) and test data (output data) using various types of software (excel, BusinessObject sap, etc).
    To this day, I have recovered hundreds of production data, and have also organized in excel but I need to analyze and plot them.
    I would like to know who can give me an idea of ​​how I could plot as much data and analysis.
    Now i trying to use dynamic charts and plot some data but I did not get acceptable answers.
    How could I compare, analyze and graph for example:
    Five columns of production (input) with five (5) columns tested (data output).
    After graphing.
    Someone can give me a technique to analyze data? ie I compare column by column?
    or some other technique? as a conglomerate could analyze data?
    o give you an idea of ​​the contect, now I perform an internship in a manufacturing turbines.
    My job is to analyze the input data (production) and to estimate the possible behavior of the turbines in the tests.
    As I said, use dynamic tables in excel, but i have not idea why the dynamic tables doesn't  take all the data from the source table.
    I appreciate your advice
    Thanks

    You can declare as PT source whole Columns [$A:$E], without rows number.
    Then You'll have all actually data.
