If you've recently upgraded your AIM, Yahoo or Live Messenger app(s), delete that upgraded app and your address book should function ok.

Cannot Edit or Add Contacts. Help.

I have an iPhone 4s with iOS6 that has seemed to have lost its 'Edit' option to add and/or change 'Contacts' info, any ideas?

Restart iPhone: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears then let both buttons go and wait for the phone to restart.

Not able to edit/delete/add contacts

OS10.3.2.2168 Z10 I am unable to make any type of change in my contacts. I cannot edit or delete or add. Hard reboot did not work. Please help

this is very frustrating. I did a back up, wiped the phone and reinstalled software (lost a few contacts ) That was my carriers request, they were at a loss to help. All suggestions were the same as what I have gleend from the forums and internet how do I get BB technical support. Always sends me to the forum, which has not been able to help me, twitter.

Add event to calender and edit and add contacts

I had the same problem. I had to go to Settings, iCloud and turn on Calendars.

Cannot edit pictures in contacts

Trying to update some contacts and I cannot edit any of the pictures.

I'm a little late to the game here, but I just got off the phone with a Senior Advisor and his statement was very clear: The software on the Mac when using Contacts (or Address Book as it used to be aptly called) is different than the software on your iDevice for Contacts. As such, and because of a limitation with the way Exchange handles the embedded photos, you can not make changes from your Mac.
He went on to say that he was unable to identify a work around or whether this would be addressed in the future. I suggested there's likely a little finger pointing going on between MS and Mac as to who owns the problem. Let's just say he 'didn't disagree'.
So, for now, just get used to changing those photos on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch because that's what we're stuck with. For now....

Is there anyway to have the ability to edit and add contacts without syncing to the cloud?

My husband and I share an account. He has a very large number of contacts that I do not need and don't want on my phone. I turned off syncing my contacts to the cloud for this reason but now do not seem to have the ability to add contacts or edit my existing contacts. Any suggestions?

It seems like you need to set up your own iCloud account. Just set one up different from his. Create a new one if you don't have another already.

Since installing Lion I cannot edit, move between contacts, or add to my Address book

This discussion has been going on for a week with no results - here is a link to what has been tried - https://discussions.apple.com/message/20455743#20455743. My husband and I recently
purchased iPhone 4 and he updated his phone to Mountain Lion - I have not as I needed to edit my
Address Book before syncing the two. His Address Book on his MacBook is not having this issue.

Cannot modify or add contacts to Address Book

I tried updating a contact today by adding a new phone number and everything seemed to be okay until I quit and restarted Address Book. When address book loaded again, the new phone number was gone. I tried this again with several contacts and tried creating a new contact and I can confirm that the address book is not saving changes or saving new contacts after a quit and re launch of Address Book.
I've tried rebooting and repairing permissions, same problem.
Console is giving me the error:
9/6/09 11:32:44 AM Address Book[212] couldn't write file '/Users/jax/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Metadata/C49788A4-134A-11D9-8A52-000A95CCEC6C:ABPerson.abcd p'
But there is no explanation of why it cannot write the file.
I am running a new clean install of Snow Leopard with minimal installed software and I imported an address book archive that I exported from Leopard 10.5.8.
I tried deleting my entire ~/Application Support/AddressBook folder and re importing the old address book database, and I get the same issue.
If I delete ~/Application Support/AddressBook and then launch address book and attempt to add or modify a contact in my new empty address book, all of the sudden all my old contacts appear even after deleting the ~/Application Support/AddressBook folder. Where are they coming from.
Is it just me or is AddressBook in SnowLeopard incredibly buggy?

I have had zero problems with Mail in Snow Leopard - it's been rock solid and very reliable for me.
I sort of cured the AddressBook problem but I have no idea why it works and I am not happy with my fix. What I did was deleted the contents of ~/Application Support/AddressBook and ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook and ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.addressbook.plist. I then rebooted and opened up AddressBook. The database was empty except for Apple and my own card which OSX creates by default. I then attempted to create a new contact and all of my old contacts magically appeared! I then deleted the new test contact and edited the contact I was originally trying to add a phone number to. I then quit address book and re-launched it and the new phone number was still there! I checked console.log and there were no errors reported this time (previously I was getting lots of error messages each time I quit and re-launched AddressBook.
I have no idea where those contacts came from since I cleared out the entire database and the cache, but whatever happened, it seems to work now.
BUGGY!

Curve 8520 cannot send/receive calls or SMS when in range of WiFi - since foreign holiday

Re-posting this in the Curve forum, where it belongs... hoping someone can help.
Recently the whole family went to Spain for two weeks. All four of our phones (a Google Nexus 4, a BB Curve 9300 and two BBCurve 8520s) worked OK in Spain, connected to local mobile networks, sent and received texts and so on.
Since returning to the UK, the BlackBerry handsets have all had problems getting re-registered to our home network (giffgaff, which uses the O2 network, as I understand it). The nexus has been fine from the moment we got back, but the BB handsets are not.
The symptoms: when in range of a registered WiFi connection, the phones cannot send or receive texts (SMS) or make or receive calls, when out of range of WiFi, they do (sometimes) succeed. It is as though the WiFi settings are over-ruling the service books / HRT for the mobile network.
The 9300 seems to have sorted itself out, thanks (possibly) to an OS upgrade. The 8520s remain basically useless.
We have tried: battery pulls, SIM pulls, manual network registration, clearing the service books and re-registering, switching SIM cards between the phones (whichever SIM is in the 9300 works OK, whichever SIM is in the 8520 does not work), OS upgrade.
The network shows on the handset screen, and connection is shown as EDGE. But calls do not get connected and SMS messages fail with "too many retries". Attempts to re-register the handset result in a message being received that the handset has been registered but it makes no difference.
The network provider (giffgaff) say they have done everything they can, and I should speak to "an engineer" - but it seems very unlikely to me that all three phones suffered a hardware fault while flying home from Spain, and that the 9300 somehow fixed itself. So I'm convinced it is a registration issue, but giffgaff are not exactly confident in their support for BB.
So - has anyone ever seen this behaviour before, and how can we fix it?
Thanks

Cannot edit my existing contacts on my BB9630

Hello every one,
I open up my contacts, go to any of my existing contacts on my phone, menu key, press edit and nothing happens.
It just started behaving this way.
The last app I installed before I noticed this issue was "contacts to excel" from the app world.
Thanks a lot guys.
Regards
Dennis

Cannot edit or add keyword tags

I'm getting this strange behvior and cannot figure out why.
In the Keywording panel, the rectangle where you can enter or edit keyword tags shows a white border. Tags cannot be added or changed. The dropdown above the box is set to Enter Keywords.
Not sure to how restore editing ability.
Thank you,
Robert

Robert,
Exiting and re-opening Lightroom is said to work. This bug has been described here before, but no one has been able to pin down the sequence of operations that causes it. If you can find a consistent way of making it happen, we'd love to hear, and the good folks at Adobe would be glad to hear as well.
Most of the work in fixing a bug is finding a way to consistently reproduce it.
