How do I delete contacts from address book in Snow Leopard OSX 10.6
I thought I had deleted some contacts from my Address Book but when I then typed in a similar name, all the old addresses came up as options. Can anyone help on this please? I feel stupid having to ask something that is so simple. Many thanks.
I think I may have found my own solution thank you. I deleted a contact in the Address Book by using Edit and deleting all the contents from the card.
I also went to the WINDOW MENU and found 'Previous Recipients". This brought up a whole list of people who had received or sent emails and I deleted the ones I didn't need and now when I start to type in an address in my email I only get the relevant options - not ones from way back.
This might just help somebody else.

HT2486 how to delet contacts from address book
Hi All,
Does anyone know how to delete contacts from address book, other than your IPhone deletion? I cannot delete them from the computer. Also, I noticed after syncing, not all my contacts are on my phone. Any advise or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Is your Address Book "locked"? Are you logged in as the Admin user? -

Check the manual http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf, but it is done via the syncing process with iTunes or iCloud.

Can I retrieve deleted contacts from address book on my mac or contact list on my iphone?
Yes if you have been backing up using Time Machine it should be pretty simple. If you haven't been backing up then they're gone.

Desktop Manager wants to delete contacts from Address Book
I have been using Desktop Manager for Mac's since it became available. When I go to sync my Storm it adds the contacts to my address book that are new to the phone, but it wants to delete 129 Contacts from my address book. For the life of my I can't seem to figure out why or how to agree to add the new contacts, but NOT delete any from my address book.
Any suggestions?
Yes, I have done the wipe, the backing up, the ticking of delete all info from device, but having to go through all of these things EVERY time I go to sync defeats the purpose.

I followed all of the steps. Searched my hard drive for anything related to Missing Sync and DM. I deleted all files. Trashed, emptied trash, reset sync services, repaired permissions. Restarted, re-downloaded, installed and still the same thing. It doesn't allow me to sync while "replace all contacts on device" is ticked. Desktop Manager will not allow me to"clear data" from the phone.
After my last sync... I have 322 entries of the same contact on my phone. Looks like I have to do yet another wipe.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How to batch add contacts from Address Book to Jabber?
Hi Guys,
I've recently imported my contacts from my hotmail account. Some of these are AIM, Gmail (iChat compatible accounts). Instead of adding one by one can i batch add them from my address book?
Cheers
JimHi,
Yes.
Click on names in the Address Book (you can either do this with the Shift or Apple key as Modifiers or create Groups to keep Jabber and AIM buddies separate at this stage.)
Once Highlighted drag them to the relevant iChat Buddy List.
(I once did 249 people like this.)

How to recover lost contacts from address book with isync.
Hi everyone,
I've just lost all my contacts even in my Nokia N95 when I use iSync. I've deleted my contacts manually in my address book to make a refresh sync with my Nokia. After I conected again and start sync, it deleted all my contacts on my Nokia... I am very dissapointed and angry with Apple.
Can you guys help me bring back my 500 contacts in my address book so I can put back in my Nokia as well?
Thank you in advance.
MattNot to my knowledge. As I see it you now are in a position of manually recreating you contact list or as I previously suggested engage a professional in data recovery with no guarantee of 100% or any recovery.
I wish it were otherwise.

How do I import contacts from address book backup into mavericks?
After upgrading to Mavericks, I cna not access my user files to restore the content of apps such as address book. Help please?
Sorry, I'm confused by your post. What does I cna not access my user files mean? Which user files? On a backup that you made before you upgraded?
Did you make a backup before you upgraded? How did you make the backup?

Lost contacts from address book with update
lost contacts from address book with update to OSX 9.3 How do I get them out of cloud back into address book?
When you log into iCloud with your browser, do you see your contacts online?
If yes, go to System Preferences > iCloud > toggle sync contacts on/off.
You might need to run the combo installer.
OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 (Update (Combo)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1746
MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.8.4 install from a regular update, just run the 10.8.4 Combo Updater on that system.
"Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update. -
