Bluetooth interface problems: Nissan Altima vs. My Address Book

I have a 2009 Nissan Altima w/the connection package, and I attempted to integrate my Blackberry 8830's contact list w/the car's phonebook.
So far, I've been able to transfer my address book to the vehicle's database (under Options>Bluetooth>Bluetooth Handsfree>Transfer Address Book), but I am not able to utilize any of the data that has been stored there. I still have to input my contacts manually in my Altima, using voice recognition. Any help?
-A.M.

From what I hear, Motorola is not releasing the commands to make this work. They are charging an upfront fee and a per user licensing fees for the AT command set.
Also, people are recommending BluePhoneElite to handle these functions. I do NOT recommend purchasing that program for the RAZR V3. Parts of it work, others do not. For ex. every time you sen an SMS message, you get an error. Sometimes the message gets ou, sometimes not. They have a trial version to try, if you want to try it.
Also, don't bother asking Apple about this. They are getting more and more arrogant lately towards their loyal customers like us. You can ask them questions until you're blue in the face: Their response: Silence!

Pairing iPhone5 bluetooth with 2013 Nissan Altima

The answer to pairing the newer version of iPhone is very simply. First, iPhone technology does not like other paired phones on the bluetooth of some car models. In my case it was a 2013 Nissan Altima SL. Well, remove all other instances of paired phones...for me it was a blackberry and I had just purchased an iPhone5. I removed the Blackberry which I wouldn't use anyway and it literally took me 15 seconds to pair the new iPhone. It was that simple. I did read some of the blogs and it didn't look good to finding an answer to my dilemma. Hope it helps.

You can select the Nissan vehicle on the Nissan website, and it will show you a list of compatible devices. go to this link: http://www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth. I wish I would have seen this before I purchased my 2013 Frontier last week. I can connect by Bluetooth to make/receive calls, stream music and stream the Google Points of Interest, but I am unable to send/receive text with my iPhone 5. I've contacted Nissan regarding the issue, and their response basically repeated my complaint... Something to the affect, "Yes, your device miight pai with the vehicle, but you might not have complete functionality". If you use the Nissan webpage to find compatible devices, be sure to click on your device to see the details of it. It will show you which functions are supported. For my Frontier, it showed that evey function was supported, with the exception of texting. Would have been nice to know before I spents and extra $2800 on the luxury package. I do not know if the reason its not compatible is on Apple's end or on Nissan's, but it sure would be nice to use all of the features i purchased.
As I said, I am using an iPhone 5, with the latest updated installed. Maybe a future upate will resolve the issue?

Problems syncing from contacts to address book

I have an iMac which now runs OSX 10.6.8 and an iPhone 3GS that runs the latest iOS 5.
Long story short, I downgraded from OSX Lion back to OSX 10.6.8 a few months ago. Got quite a few problems doing so... ended up creating a brand new user and transferring music, videos and photos manually. Then, the iOS 5 got out and I upgraded my phone right away. I couldn't figure out icloud at first but understood yesterday that it works only with Lion. I thought I'd keep it on my phone if I ever want to install Lion again.
I also realised that I never transfered back in my iMac all my iCal events and Contacts.
So yesterday, I tryied to sync my Contacts, iCal and Notes from my iPhone to my iMac. In the iTune info tab, under each section, there was a message mentioning that since I use iCloud, I don't need to sync my info through iTune and doing so would possibly create duplicates. I try to sync them anyway since I only had to in Address Book. I got the message to merge or replace. I selected merge (yes I had at least one contact in Address Book). Nothing happened... iCal didn't merge anything and neither Address Book. I tried to create new events in my phone and iMac and these were syncing but not the original ones. Also added a contact in Address Book and it got sync with my phone. I didn't try creating one on the phone to sync it through but assumed that it was working.
After going through a few discussion threads, I decided to delete the iCloud account on my phone since I didn't need it and try re-syncing. The iCloud message in the iTune's info tab was gone so I thought everything would be good and I could select merge my contact again without any problem. I was wrong... I lost all my contacts... I freeeeeeeeaked out !! Thank God I didn't unplug the phone and restored it right away to get everything back.
I tried it again this afternoon but only tried to sync iCal. I didn't get to choose between merge and replace and the same thing happened again... lost everything... iCal but also Contacts which I find strange because I didn't check the Contact option in iTune.... I got everything restored back even thought it's always scary to try things like this.... So for now on, I don't delete my iCloud info on my Phone and do not sync any other info. I'm actually scared to plug it in and always double check that my contacts are all there before unplugging.
So here I am... don't really know what to do... I read stuff about removing apple.isync files or something... or other options but they never quite answer my problem...
There is still the option to type all my contacts back in Address Book.. I don't have that many... but it's a pain...
Sorry about the long message here
Thanks for your help and for your time.

Clearly iSync has got confused about what new data it needs to pull from the phone. Usually resetting the sync history solves this, but as it hasn't for you... try this:
I would suggest sending all the contacts from the phone to the Mac manually via Bluetooth: *Contacts > Options > More > Advanced > Send all Contacts > Via Bluetooth* (or similar, depending on the exact phone model)
This will send vCard(s) which can be imported into the Mac Address Book simply by double-clicking the file that arrives on your Mac.
Merge or remove any duplicates as they are imported. You can also use the *Card > Look for Duplicates* command in Address Book.
Once all your Contacts are exactly as you want them in Address Book do a full backup of them:
*File > Export > Address Book archive...*
Finally, load iSync, click your phones icon and choose *Reset Device...* from the Devices menu.
This will force iSync to remove all the existing contacts from the phone and completely replace them with all the new nicely sorted out ones from the Mac Address Book.
From this point on, iSync should keep track of what needs updating on each subsequent sync.

Problems synching iPhone 3Gs with Address Book and Calender

I have an iPhone 3Gs and have begun to notice that information is not being synched between Calender and the phone and Address Book and the phone. I now also have duplicate contacts for all contacts that were in my orginal iPhone before I upgraded. I suspect it has something to do with mobileme (which I don't subscribe to) and I have tried all the various synch options in iTunes. I know people have been having the problem and have solved theirs with the help of mobileme. How can I solve it without subscribing?

Yes I have a similar problem.
I lost all my contacts (today 23rd Mat 2011) on my 3G iPhone and the Address Book on my Mac Pro also.
The contacts in my MS Outlook were intact I run Outlook:Mac 2011.
They have only just fixed the issue with the Calendar in this version 2 weeks ago an MS issue.
I plugged in the iPhone last night to charge and synch and this morming the phone had no contacts and I had lost all the address Book I had some group headings (greyed out)
It's almost like a plot to get Outlook users frustrated and make them switch but, Outlook is too good.
Outlook:mac 2011 contacts does not synch with Mac address book

Problem of PI am having a weird problem in prinrinting List in Address Book

I am having a weird problem in printing a list of addresses in Address Book. The odd number pages (1,3,5,etc.) print fine but the even number pages move the phone numbers from the third column and prints them over the second column's address and Note fields. Anybody know what is going on here? I have tried the Roll Call Directory software suggested by one respondent on another printing problem and while it is very nice, it seems to have its own quirks (Splits the information when it reaches the bottom left column of a two column set-up or prints at the top left column of the next page when it reaches the end of the right column instead of keeping the address intact in one spot).

P.S. To as to this problem. I tried printing some more pages of the address list and now while some of the odd numbered pages seem OK as you go along it switches to some of the even numbered pages being OK with the odd numbered pages having the third column shifting to overprint on part of the 2nd column. In addition, I can't print envelopes since the program simply does nothing or crashes when the print button is selected.

Problems with Reverting to an Address Book Backup

I keep my address book updated on my iMac at home that is running OS v10.6 Snow Leopard. At work, I am now using a G5 that is running OS v10.4 Tiger. I have created a +Backup of my Address Book+ at home and brought the .abbu file with me to work so that I could +Revert to an Address Book Backup+ on my G5.
I've done it twice already and I'm still missing vCards (mostly recently added). Also, some of the other vCards have old information. Is there something I'm not doing right? If the solution is to highlight all vCards and +Export vCard...+ then what is the point of +Back up Address Book...+

Dear Pat,
Thank you. I have received the exact same reply from Amreso.
I thank you both for your replies. If the problem occurs again, I shall follow your advice.
I just need to pluck up the courage. I get so nervous with the computer when it plays up.
Regards
Anthony

Problems with autofill when editing address book entries

When i try to change eg miller to Miller, anna to Anna etc
1) the initial letter remains lower case and
2) even worse, another iller/nna is added on to the end - milleriller, annanna etc.
I've tried deleting the whole name and starting again - no joy. Is something going wrong with Autofill? Are there any preference files i should try trashing?
NB this problem only occurs with names which appear more than once in the address book.

Hi,
i was having this problem, specifically it kept offering me the word I wanted except all in capitals, which I didn't want. Turned out the cause was that the word was actually used in all capitals elsewhere in my Address Book. Once I hunted down all occurrences of this word in capitals and changed them to my preferred format the autocomplete stopped offering the all-capitalised version. Perhaps this approach will help for you.

Problem with mailing Groups from Address book

I have been using Groups in my address book for a while - adding people to Groups and using the Group name to email them all at once. Recently (since turning on iCloud, though I don't know if that is the cause) I am finding the following problem. I add new people to my address book. I add those new people to a Group. I go to mail and use the Group name... but the new people are not in the email list (when I drill into it). If I go to the address book and use control-click and the drop-down box to select the option to send a mail to the Group, the same thing happens. Any suggestions out there? Thanks.

I am having a similar problem. All the addresses are correct, and I know this because I use them all the time with no errors. BUT when bundled into a group - actually any group I set up I cannot send successfully. I have two groups in my mail program and neither will work.

Problem with synchronization of the Address Book

My problem is in the synchronization of the Address Book:
if I add or delete a contact in the iPhone or nell'iPad, syncing, iTunes tells me that there will be a change in the address book, but then in the Address Book on my Mac the new name does not exist or, if I deleted, remains .
If I make a change (eg. Put an address or a birthday) in contacts of the iPhone or iPad, iTunes tells me that I'm editing the Address Book, but then the change is not in the Mac
The strange thing is that after the synchronization, if I delete the new name or the variation in the iPhone or iPad, iTunes tells me again that it is making a change on something in the Mac Address Book I can not see, but which evidently is somewhere, but does not appear for whatever **** reason.
On the contrary, working on the Address Book in Mac, synchronization is successful, and devices that I feedback positively what I added or removed from my Mac
The synchronization of iCal instead occurs regularly in both directions.
MacBook Intel Core 2 Duo
OS Snow Leopard 10.6.8
iPhone 4 16G
iPad 3 16G

Hi Krishna,
The only solution I can think of displaying the doc inside the portal content area is to create a document iView, embed this iView in a role and then in the link use:
http://<server>:<port>/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://<PCD Location of the iView inside the role>
But that is not very short.
Best regards,

Problem with Entourage to ICal & Address Book sync

I have recently has a problem with syncing information logged in Entourage's calendar & address book across to iCal & Address book, which then in turn syncs with my iPhone.
For some reason the information is not now being sync'd across to iCal & Address book. I have checked that I have set the preferences correctly both in Entourage & Mac sync preferences but still it doesn't transfer the info.
Can anyone help?
Simon

Since the issue with is with Entourage, and it's not an Apple product you should consider posting your question on Microsoft's own forums as they would be geared more toward your issue than an Apple forum:

Problem Adding Custom Labels to Address Book

I add custom labels to the Template in Address Book Preferences. There's no problem at this stage, the custom labels appear along with the preset labels in the Template. But when I leave Preferences, go back to Address Book and add a new card, the custom labels disappear.
What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be appreciated. And thank you in advance.

Barney-15E: Thanks for your previous reply!
Would you check this work-around for me? I think I found a way to compose a master list of custom labels and have them available for multiple cards (new and old) in Address Book on a MacBookPro and in the Contacts directory on an iPhone. I have tried compiling a master list of custom labels using Address Book Preferences/Template and I find there's a limit to the number of custom labels I can add as a label for each field.
Here's my workaround.
1) Go to the iPhone Contacts directory.
2) Add a new card.
2) Enter data in these fields: address, date, email, and phone. The standard label will appear on the screen below the data.
3) Tap the standard label and you will go to a screen with 2 windows. The top window has the standard or preset labels for that field but below it in a second window is a button "Add Custom Label". Tap on this button and you will be able to add the text for a Custom Label for each of these fields. This will then become a master list of Custom Labels that can be used in most labels in the iPhone Contacts Directory.
4) If you have your IPhone set up to synch with your MacBookPro or iMac, the entry in the iPhone Contacts directory will be transferred to your other Mac, with the Custom Labels.
Barney - 15E: Can you find a glitch??? To me it seems to make a master list of custom labels available for all card, new and old. The only problem is that the input has to be done on the iPhone.

Problems with envelope-printing in Address Book: First and Last names

New entries I make in Address Book are printing incorrectly, with Last name then First name. Most of my older entries print correctly as First name then Last name (though oddly I have a small batch of entries I imported ages ago which have always exhibited the same transposition problem).
I have prefs set to display entries by Last name. Problem entries WILL print correctly if I change this to 'display by First name'. (older entries print correctly regardless of 'display by..' pref).
I'm having the same problem if I create a new account, which made me suspect the app was corrupted, but not helped by deleting app and re-installing from Tiger DVD then running combo updater.

Thank you for the suggestion.
However, it doesn't make sense for the LIST display-order to swap the first-and-last names on an ENVELOPE. Secondly, most of my entries DO print correctly: it's only NEW entries that transpose the first and last names.

Problem synching iPhone with Yahoo address book contacts

Basically what is happening is when I sync most of the yahoo contacts transfer to the iPhone just fine but then I get a message telling me that all of the contacts could not be copied, try again later. I look and it stops after the letter "T". Ive tried several times even after a reboot. I also noticed that when I created a new contact on the iPhone it doesnt get synched over to my yahoo contacts. Any help is appreciated.
thanks
Angelo

What advanced settings are you referring to on the iPhone? The only advanced I have is under my yahoo email account. Update since I last posted, I tried deleting the few entries after the letter "T" that were not synching to the iPhone and recreated them and they now are synching fine but the sync is only working one way, if I create a new contact on the iPhone it shows up in my yahoo address book but if I create a new entry in my yahoo address book and do a sync, it does not sync over to the iPhone.

Having problems using mail merge from address book to word for labels

I've downloaded and opened avery labels to word and would now like to merge an address book from my mac.
When I get to the Mail Merge Manager and go to 'get list', my address book is not accessible.
I'm sure there's a simple way to do this but have not been successful googling or using the help options on both
pages and address book.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi shaun
Looks like Pages '08 works the same as the previous version. You can't get data from multiple cards in one document. Try using Address Book's native label printing feature.
Good luck!

Problems in trying to print address book as list

Am trying to print my address book as a list. Page 1, 2 and 4 print just fine, but page 3 has data moved so that it overprints other data. Is there a fix for this or should I just reinstall the address book?
Macbook intel core duo Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Try booting into safe mode and previewing -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
if it looks good order while in safe mode then reboot to get out of safe mode
