How do i add my address book from my mac to my iPhone4

i have my address book on my mac book and have connected and synced my new iphone4 but im not sure how to add something from my computer to my phone. . . . please HELP!

The iPad contact app and the computer's contact app are not the same. You can't create groups on the iPad. You can view the groups created on the computer when synced with iCloud. Not sure if synced with iTunes, but the iPad app won't change.
If you synced the iPad with iTunes before, then it should still show up as a device in iTunes. If you are using the new iTunes, the devices don't appear in the sidebar anymore. At the upper right hand side if the iTunes window, younshould see a box to show devices. Click on that.

  • Transfer address book from other mac ?

    How do I transfer my address book from older mac to new macbook pro?

    I assume you means the contacts. The Address Book includes an export feature, which may be slightly different for an earlier version. At the menu bar, go to File > Export. If there is an Address Book Archive selection, use that.
    Transfer the exported archive to your new Mac. Use the import option with the Address Book on your new Mac to import the archive.

    How do I copy an address book from one user account to another?

    You haven't understood me. Follow these steps:
    1. Log in the user where are the files you want to transfer, and open a Finder window.
    2. In Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type /Users/Shared. Now you're on Shared folder, so leave that window.
    3. Open a new Finder window without closing the old one, go to the folder with the files you want to transfer, and copy them to Shared folder.
    4. After copying the files to Shared folder, go to  > Log Out, and log in the other user.
    5. Repeat the step 2, and you will get access to the transferred files. Now, you can open them directly from this folder, or you can copy them to a folder on your user folder

  • How to transfer the whole address book from one no...

    Dear friend,
    Could you please advise me "how to transfer the whole address book from one nokia to another nokia phone via blue tooth connectivity. (move one by one is not convenience for my hundreds of contact.
    Thank and waiting for advice...
    victor

    If your phones have the built-in "Transfer" (sometimes called "Switch") application, try it.
    Otherwise, depending on the model(s) you can also copy all contacts to/from the memory card, and get them over that way.
    And you can also synchronize both programs to the same service (e.g., Outlook on a Windows PC using Nokia PC Suite).
    And newer versions of Nokia PC Suite can also be used to make a backup of one phone, and then restore to another.
    PC Suite you can find here: http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite

  • How do I move an address book from a pc to my MacBook Pro

    How do I move an address book from a pc to my new MacBook Pro

    Hey andreafiona,
    You can either manually migrate or use Windows Migration Assistant. I'd like to direct you to two articles - the first one here will go over generally what Windows Migration Assistant is about. For you, I'd skip to the section titled "What gets transferred, and to where?" and then "Email, contacts, and calendar information" so you can read about where you contacts will get moved if you choose the WMA option:
    About Windows Migration Assistant
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
    Then, this next article will be a step by step process for transferring from your PC to the MacBook Pro and will include using both Windows Migration Assistant and manually migrating, whichever you choose:

    With many applications it's just a matter of dragging the file that has all the addresses into the address book. If for some reason that doesn't work you can use the import function of the address book. If you happen to have them in Outlook here is one way:

    Have you ever synced your iPhone with your Mac?
    If so, there are various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes for transferring your selected music, podcasts, photos, movies, tv shows, etc.
    Under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes is where you select syncing contacts direct with the Address Book on your Mac.
    If the Address Book on your Mac is empty, follow the instructions included with my previous post.

    3) How do I add more mailboxes to my email to file emails..???
    All assistance geatly appreciated...ty

    No you can sync them over a local network or USB cable, you just can't do so by iCloud.
    The other option would be to sync your mobile devices with iCloud and use the contacts feature at iCloud.com rather than the Address Book when using the computer.

  • I am having trouble trying to get my address book from my mac (just downloaded Lion for this purpose) to my 3G ipad. Set up an icloud account but still confused! Please help !

    I updated my mac with  os x Lion so that I could accomplish moving my address book from the mac to my new IPad 3G. I also set up an icloud account for this purpose, but I *still* cannot figure out how to move my address book from one computer to the other. When I'm on my mac and try to use bluetooth to export the address book, I'm able to find my ipad but I soon get a message that it does not support the necessary services. I have no idea what's going on and would appreciate any advice. tks in advance, Sarah

    The address book syncs via iCloud, not Bluetooth or iTunes.
    You upgraded to Lion so you could use iCoud.
    On the computer. go to Apple menu > System prefs > iCloud.
    Sign into your iCloud account.
    Tick everything.
    This enalbes the se items syncing to iCloud.
    On the iPad, Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Create a new iCloud account.
    Sign in with the same AppleID as your computer.
    Settings > iCloud and turn everything on.
    BAM!
    That is all you need to do.
    Your contacts (and all other checked items checked) will sync between computer and iPad.
    No need to use iTunes
