Can't log into contacts after upgrading to lion

I upgraded to Lion the night before last. Now when I try to open my contacts i get a message that states. " You cant use this version of the application address book with this version of MAC OS X". It then states "you have address book 4.1.2..
So my question is how do I find and download the right address book version that works with Lion?

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.

  • Can't log into server after 10.5.5 update

    After running the 10.5.5 update on our Intel Xserve, it keeps getting stuck at the login window. I typed in the correct admin login info, the window would go away as if it was going to the next step, then it came back again. All services are running fine and I can get on via SA and WGM (from another computer) but not to the Desktop (via Remote Desktop). I noticed every time I try to log on (correctly) as admin, the whole service would restart. I get this from the Terminal window while I ssh and logged in from another computer after hit the Log In button: Sep 16 11:23:17 server1 loginwindow[2249]: Unable to load Info.plist exceptions.
    Any ideas? I am afraid to update the other Xserve now..... Thanks!

    I have a similar problem, although with 10.5.4 rather than 10.5.5... Seems all services work, however, I can't log into the Finder.
    I just set this server up 2 weeks ago, so was able to give the users back their previous server for the time being. However, after an hour on the phone with Apple, their techs have exhausted all ideas. Here's what I've tried so far with prompting from Apple...
    1. boot from dvd, run permissions and disk repair
    reboot. no difference
    2. from a remote machine, access WGM, add new user, check home folders of existing users, check permissions, create another administrator user with a new home, try again with new user, no difference.
    3. wipe preferences via Terminal: boot single user, mount -uw /, run mv /Library/Preferences /Library/Prefencesold
    reboot. no difference
    4. changed preferences back to where they were by removing new (rm), and renaming old (mv) - still no access to finder
    5. suggested remotely installing 10.5.5 as last resort - this is the last idea the Apple technician had. I haven't done it yet.
    It seems to be a corrupt finder or login issue more than a server issue as all services are running fine
    6. In single user mode again, I tried a rm .AppleSetupDone which allowed me to recreate the server user and settings, but still did not allow access to the Finder.
    7. One of the other techs here suggested safe mode, hadn't tried that. - still wouldn't allow me to log into the Finder
    8. Tried boot from Disk Warrior DVD (latest version) - wouldn't boot
    sigh...
    Ideas anyone? I'm close to wiping and rebuilding this server, however the user permissions are a little bit intricate so it would sure be nice to get it running again.
    thanks, Dave

  • Can't add/edit contact after upgrade to IOS5 - HELP!

    After upgrading to ios 5, I can't add or edit the contact. The buttons are gone! How to get them back? I tried numerous restart also no use.

    I was having issues with Calendar after updating to iOS 5.0.1 also.  I finally was able to get Calendar functioning again by turning it OFF within Settings > iCloud.  This action keeps all my calendars on my iPod. I also reverted to backing up my iPod Touch to my computer within iTunes, then restoring, and re-syncing after I made the changes.  Now, I am able to add, edit, and delete events in my calendar just as I was able to do before updating to iOS 5.0.1.  Restoring my iPod Touch only worked temporarily for me (before I change the settings), as the problem returned the very next time I attempted to add an event.  This fix probably will not allow syncing with other Apple devices through iCloud, but it is less drastic than deleting my iCloud account.

    It's really Hugh problem for me due to loss of contacts.

  • Cannot log into iCloud after upgrading to Yosemite

    I have 3 iCloud accounts on my mac for various family members but after the upgrade I cannot get the iCloud account to log in. It just keeps asking for the password.
    Any ideas?
    Dhiran

    You must be logged in using the Apple ID used to purchase iPhoto or to set up your Mac - If you are logged in with the Apple ID that was used to purchase iPhoto or to set up the computer if it came preinstalled then quit iPhoto, backup your iPhoto library  and drag the iphoto application to the trash (do not empty the trash yet) and then go to the App store and install iPhoto
    If this does not allow you to upgrade then you need to contact App store support  - link i son the right of the app store window

  • Can't log into CC after Mac 10.7.1 update

    This only seems to be happening on my tower after the update yesterday. Laptop seems to be working fine.
    The Creative Cloud desktop app just shows a blank white rectangle. I've tried reinstalling to no avail.
    When I try to open any CC app (e.g. Photoshop CC), it says I need to log in. When I try I get an error message like the follwing (differnt error codes each time I try).
    Error
    There was an error with this action. Try again later.
    547f6071-8c56-40e3-8cb8-3e9cfd67b4a9

    Arpit--
    Attached are screen shots of by CC Desktop app and the error message I get after trying to authenticate when opening any CC app (Photoshop in this case).
    Also, I was being dumb...I'm running the very latest versions of OS X (was loking at the listings for "MacOS X Updates" in stead of further down the installation list at "OS X Udates). The update last week was the "OS X v10.8.5 Supplemental Update" that I installed on 10/10. As I think I mentioned...I updated on my laptop as well and can still access my CC apps there...I'm not sure I've logged out of CC and back in since the whole password thing though.

  • Can't Connect to Server after Upgrading to Lion

    I upgraded to 10.7 from 10.6.8. I've ran all the updates etc, but now I cannot connect to my OS X Server (10.6.8) or any other machine for that matter. The server appears in my finder window and will allow me to connect as a guest but if I try to login by clicking connect as or by using COMMAND+K and typing the IP I get a long wait after entering my PW only to receive an error that says "There was a problem connecting to the server "pggfx01". Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator. It should be noted that I have other machines that came with Lion that connect without issue and other machines still running 10.6.8 that connect flawlessly. PLEASE HELP, I've searched and searched with no succes.

    I've tried that over and over again ( I had found that solution previously ) but it doesn't work. As a note I can connect as a guest to anything, just not a registered user. So when I get to the step that wants me to create an AFP connection it doesn't work. I type in my username & password and the little wheel spins like it's trying to connect and the error I mentioned above pops up after a really long time. Very frustrated with this upgrade, it has killed my productivity.

  • Can't locate Time Capsule after upgrading to Lion

    I just added a mini mac, and 2 iPhones and upgraded my MacBook to Lion so I could use iCloud for everything.  Now that everything is upgraded and running I can not connect to my time machine.  I can't backup my MacBook and I can't locate it with any of the other devices.  I'm pretty sure it's the original Time Capsule, I bought it with my MacBook 4 years ago.  Any thoughts because I would like to use the Time Capsule to transfer my music files and photos to the Mini Mac.
    In the event that I can't connect to the Time Capsule any thought on how best to transfer my music and photos to the Mini Mac?

    Stick the 10.6 disk into the machine and reboot holding the option/alt key down on a wired/built in keyboard.
    On the second screen, under the Utilities menu is a Password Reset, use it.
    Step by Step to fix your Mac
    What this will do is reset the password and the user account permissions in the process.
    You might have problems with Keychain afterwards, to fix that.
