Cant access address book icon

When I click on my address book icon the cursor locks up and never opens the program. Normal function only resumes when I press the red end key.

With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
Try again and let me know?

When sending an email to several people I can't find the address book icon in the tool area

when sending an email to several people I can't find the address book icon in the tool area that used to be at the top of the Leopard system...if you have 20 individual addressees how do I access my address book? j

If you don't see the "shadow man" icon, right click the toolbar and select customize.. drag the icon up to the bar.

Just moved from PC to iMac-Mavericks and Tbird now crashes when I try to access Address Books.

When entering an email address, Tbird apparently checks address books since it gives me a list of possible addressees as I enter the name. But when I click on the Address Book icon to get in to make a change or new entry, I get an error saying Tbird has encountered a problem and crashed. My options are to quit or restart Tbird. When restarting all is fine again.
I just moved my email, address books, etc to an iMac (first time on such a machine) and thought I'd gotten everything moved per instructions, but apparently did something wrong.

The problem appears to be Reminder Fox. The other add-ons I have are Adblock Plus, Extra Folder Columns, Test Pilot for Tbird and View About. Disabling just Reminder gave me back direct access to the Address Books; toggling others off and on had no effect.
I guess the question now is why. I assume that it there must be something odd about my set up and its interaction with Reminder, or more people would be having this problem. Although I'm content to operate without Reminder, if someone wants to work with me to identify the specific source of the problem, I'm game to do it, but it's not something I'm capable of doing on my own.
Thanks again very much for your help. What a relief to have the Address Books back!

Access Address Book data from terminal

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if there is a way to access Address Book data from the terminal. For instance, I would
need a command that would output an address of a given person.
Thanks in advance for your input

this script could be used in Terminal (save the code below as
"getaddress" and mark it as executable):
case $# in
2) firstname=$1; lastname=$2;;
*) echo 'Usage: getaddress <firstname> <lastname>' 1>&2; exit 1 ;;
esac
count=`osascript -e "tell application \"Address Book\" to count (people whose first name is \"${firstname}\" and last name is \"${lastname}\")"`
case $count in
0) echo "$firstname $lastname is not in Address Book." 1>&2; exit 1;;
1) ;;
*) echo "There are multiple entries for $firstname $lastname in Address Book (unhandled error)." 1>&2; exit 1;;
esac
osascript -e "tell application \"Address Book\" to get formatted address of address of first person whose first name is \"${firstname}\" and last name is \"${lastname}\""

Access Address Book from other applications

Hi there,
How can I access Address Book information from other applications (notably the command line, OpenOffice, etc.)?
In particular, is there a command line utility to access and edit the Address Book?
Thanks!
Brian

One of the best answers would have been the CPAN module: Mac::Glue. Cheers.

Where is Address book Icon in Mail "send" toolbar

Installed Lion. Could not find the "address book" icon in the send toobar. It was in Leopard, however I cannot seem to find it in Lion. Is it no longer available or am I just not looking in the right place?

I did find that Icon however if you are in the main menu for mail it IS there. However if you hit New Message a new window comes up and that tool bar does not have the "man" icon. I have to pull the window down some so I can see the main menu, then click on the "man" to get the address book. I tried to pull the icon into the send window but it would not transfer. Just seems awkward to me or maybe I am missing something.
The Address Book Icon was in the send window on Leopard as I recall.

Make selective backup
save only data that you need to be saved.
After that on the device go to Options - Security Options - General Settings
Hit the menu button and select "Wipe handheld"
It will wipe the device memory.
After that restore the saved information to the device.

Cannot access address book following archive and install

Following an archive and install with 10.5.8 I find that when attempting to access Address Book, Font Book, Text Edit and Time Machine I get the following admonition on the screen, " You can't open the application because it is not supported on this architecture."
How can I restore these applications?

Sdgardne, thank you so much! Using your post and links I was able to restore my address book after upgrading my software and having trouble with my address book. And I am very technologically challenged so I appreciate having something I could understand and follow.

I have a "?" on my address book icon.

I have a "?" on my address book icon and it won't open. I am syncing to mobile me. My iPhone and iPad contacts still are there. ideas?

That means that the Address Book application has either been moved, renamed, or deleted from its original location. Drag the icon out of the dock (that won't do anything to the application itself) then go to your Applications folder and find the Address Book app. Once you've found it, just drag the icon back into the dock where you want it.

Missing address book icon

My address book icon is missing. I have checked the "show all" and it still doesn't appear. Any suggestions?? Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The Address Book can't be deleted, so it is there. Look in your folders on the homescreen... applications, etc.

Applications Icon shows Address Book Icon

I don't know how it happened, but the Applications icon is showing the Address Book icon on my Dock. How do I change this?
Thanks for any help.

Right click or ctrl+click on the Applications stack (icon) in the Dock, select Folder under Display As, and it will no longer display a preview of the contents of the Applictions folder.

Disappearing Address Book icon

Hi folks,
the icon for address book has disappeared from the dock, leaving a blank space - hovering over the space shows that the programme is still there and will open when clicked, but no sign of the icon. Have no idea what to do to get it back (and yes, I tried the on/off panacea!). Any suggestions? Am running latest version (updates up to date) Snow Leopard on a 6 month old MacBook Pro.

John,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
One of the first things to try is restarting your computer.
If that is unsuccessful, try refreshing the Dock plist file. Go to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences folder, find the com.apple.dock.plist, drag it to your desktop, log out/in, or restart and let us know what happens.
Your dock will revert to default settings, and hopefully once again display the Address Book icon.

Cannot access address book contacts in yahoo mail. Firefox 4. Contacts list will not load. With Windows Explorer, no problem.

Recently, yahoo mail upgraded their program. When I try to access my contacts (address book) the contacts list won't load. The little spinning icon just keeps spinning. I think this is a Firefox problem because Internet Explorer works okay. Also, I have problems accessing some secure sites using Firefox 4, but not with Explorer. I prefer Firefox. How can I resolve this?

I have no access to my Yahoo contacts. I cannot search or browse them. The only way I can get ONE is by adding the contact from an email. Then, if I ask to see more contacts either through the partial alphabet buttons or to see the entire list of contacts, I'm back to the same search page where NOTHING happens. Did I say this is VERY frustrating?? HELP
