How can I set up a second Contacts folder on my IPhone

I have an Iphone and a Palm Pilot. I want to stop carring the Palm, and have the contacts there put on the IPhone.
I came upon Plaxo, which would allow me to sync from desktops and laptops to the net, as well as syncing with my IPhone.
However, it appears that Plaxo will sync with the IPhone Contact folder, then wipe out the subset of numbers I keep there. I want to keep the contacts separate - especially because of the ringer tone controls.
Is there a way to create a second contact folder that I can sync with Plaxo, which will keep separate the current IPhone contacts in my existing Contacts folder?
My existing contacts folder was created, in a way I which I knew, when I got the phone. It is a 3G, using 4.2.1 (8C148)..

If I can not set up a second Contacts folder, does anybody have an alternative way of having contact information that a person could see the information from an Outlook Format available for viewing?

I have my own personal domain on my own server and I am wondering if the only way to set up a new folder is via cPanel direct on my server - or can it be done through Mail?

How can I synch ONLY the default 'contacts' folder in Outlook 2003?

I am using Outlook 2003 SP3. In my 'contacts' menu I have 3 folders: 'Contacts', 'iPhone' and 'Old.' I created 'iPhone' and 'Old' folders and 'Contacts' was the default folder. When I synch my 3G iPhone with Outlook I want to synch ONLY the default 'contacts' folder. But I can't seem to do this. My options are to synch all folders or a selection of non-default folders (i.e., anything but 'Contacts.')
Does this make sense? I don't want to synch anything in the 'old' folder to my iphone. But I also don't want to move all of my current contacts to a special folder just so I can synch only these items.
So when I synch my iPhone I want it to limit the synching to only the default 'contacts' folder.
Is there a way to do this?

Open one of the folders that keeps changing. Set it to the view mode you prefer. Press Command-J (Show View Options in View menu).
At the top of the View Options screen is an item which allows one to set "Always open in xxx view". Chekmark that.
Repeat for each folder you want.
This is a per-folder setting. Note that the View Options screen is 'live" - you can leave it open, and as you open successive folders it will display the settings for each in turn.

How can I sync outlook 2007 subfolders, contacts, and calendar to iphone 6

How do I setup to sync outlook 2007 subfolders, contacts, and calendar to iphone 6?
Inbox messages will sync but not the sent box from either outlook or iphone. Also, outlook subfolders are showing up on iphone.

Hi,
you don't need MobileMe or anything fancy. I personally sync my Outlook calendar and my Outlook address book with three computers (two at the office and one at home)and besides I run Office 2003 on one, Office 2007 on the other and Office 2010 on the third, so it can't get more complicated than that, but it works 100%.
First sync Outlook with iTunes on one computer, having done that when you try to sync it to another machine, iTunes will recognize that it is synced with another computer and ask you if you want to merge the data, say yes, That's all there is to it.
It does not work for music as you rightly say but as far as Calendars and Contacts are concerned it's flawless and transparent.
If you hit a snag talk back to me.
Cheers.

How can I set up a second monitor using the DVI, a mini Displayport to dvi?

Hey guys,
In my office I'm trying to set up a mac with two displays, Samsung screensync sa450s, using a Startech MDP2DVIW mini displayport to dvi, and the DVI port found on the ATI Radeon HD 5770.
However, whichever monitor is plugged in through the mini displayport never shows video, and instead will just flicker sometimes, no matter which monitor I use, or which of the mini displayports i use. The system profiler recognizes both monitors, and has all of the specs on both monitors, but only the monitor connected directly to the DVI displays anything, even if it is the secondary monitor.
The StarTech does still work with the macpro that used to be in this spot, and the only salient distinction I can find is that the old computer has Mountain Lion, while the new one is still running Snow Leopard. Is this a case where we should just update the OS? or is there another fix?
I've also read online that many people have been not fully plugging in these mini displayports, so I'm worried that I'm doing that, but then I'd figure it wouldn't have worked when I plugged it into the old computer unless my predecessor had made some hardware adjustments.
Let me know.

A frequent solution to problems like the one you describe involves pushing in the Mini DisplayPort cable-end.
It should be inserted until essentially ALL of the metal end disappears inside the jack on the 5770 board.
Is this display wider than 1920 wide?
EDIT: The Startech MDP2DVIW adapter you cited is a passive adapter suitable for 1920 wide or less. You should be using ACTIVE adapters, about US$35. They cost a little more, but are much more trouble-free. The ACTIVE designation means they contain booster circuitry to raise the Voltage levels up to true DVI levels. The default converter produces good timing, but the signals are really low.

How can i set up a distribtuion group on mail for iPhone?

Hello,
I was able to set up a distribution group on my "icloud.com" account. I used my contacts and created a group and then went to my mail and was able to send it to that group.
My next step is to do that on my iPhone 5.
I see the group under the contacts in settings that i have created, however, it is not recognized on my phone as a distribution group.
Thanks for any help,
Kyle

You can't. "All contacts" means just what it says.

How To Use Automator To Batch Rename Images on Mac

How can you set up a password protected folder in OSX 10.8.2

I'm trying to set up password protected folder on a new mac desktop. Version 10.8.2
I have done this before in Mountain Lion and previous OS versions by creating a "Disk Image" in the disk utitlity. It's been easy. But in this newer version, it doesn't give me the same options that I've seen in the past nor see on many online posts. And when I try to create, it just gives me an error message saying there is not enough space, which is crazy as there is over 500GB open.
Any ideas?
Thanks

It still works in Disk Utility (DU):
1. Determine one file that shall be inside the DMG, e.g. one on the Desktop (obviously, you can delete it later again). say it's xyz.jpg.
2. In DU, without a drive selected, click New Image.
3. Expand to Finder-like view by clicking on the arrow next to Save As.
4. Click on xyz.jpg, even if greyed out. It will show up under Save As with the .dmg suffix.
5. In the bottom part, select Name, Size, and all other parameters. You want encryption, so pick one, then click Create.
6. Next, enter and remember your password. Probably you will NOT want it to be remembered in Keychain...
7. That's it: at the same location as xyz.jpg you now have xyz.dmg. In the Finder it's open, and you can manage its content until you eject it.

How can I set the file name and folder for output to PDF from another application?

I am developing an application in Microsoft Access where the printed reports are to be saved in PDF format for archive purposes. I can send the output to Adobe X, but the default file name is the Access report name and the folder selected is the one last used.
What I need to do is to create the file with a specific name (which changes for each run) and to a specific folder (which also changes for each run).
The language I'm using is Visual Basic for Applications which is located in an Access form that controls the report production.
Any suggestions, please?

Got it - many thanks.

How can i better manage and sync contacts and calendars between iPhone, iMac, Macbook air and iPad?

Hello I love MAC products and own quite a few but am still having a tough time synchronizing everything "under the same common roof" despite using "icloud". Does anyone have 4 duplicates for the same contact on an 1000 contact database (with Group contacts, MAC contacts, Icloud contacts etc...) what a headache!Thanks for any suggestions.

Simply on the iPhone in the iCloud preferences turn off the contacts sync. It will ask if u wanna delete or not the contacts on the iphone. You answer to leave the Contacts on iphone. After that proceed to delete all contacts from all u're other devices and the iCloud site. A way to do it fast is to deselect the contact sync on icloud options in every device and when asked tell to delete the contacts from device. When u're sure that all other devices contacts are clean turn again on the contacts sync on the iCloud preferences for each device and at last the iPhone. After few the iPhone contacts will be sync to other device so u'll have same Contacts on all device. In this way when u'll made a change on one of u're device all other will have same change.

How can I set up a share virtual printer on my macbook to print to pdf from my iPhone 5 or iPad?

I've never had the occassion to use a virtual printer setup but I've seen where other people have when they need to print to pdf and have no printer available where they are. So, my question is really a spin off of that type of situation, except I have a printer, I just don't want to print. I want to save from my iPad or iPhone to my MacBook's hard drive in pdf format. From what I've seen online, I would imagine it involves setting up a virtual printer on the MacBook that I can set up as a shared printer, but there are so many conflicting responses on setting up a virtual printer and most of them are for older. Does anyone have any experience with setting up a similar virtual printer in Maverick?
For completeness, I'll add system info:
MackBook 5.2 Core 2 Duo 2 GHz upgraded with 4 GB DDR2 RAM and Maverick OS
Obviously the virtual printer needs to support iPrint.
