How do I import my Mountain Lion Contacts list into Maverick

I updated my Macbook Pro from Mountain Lion to Mavericks and I was able to get everything working except the contacts list. In Mountain Lion I had my contacts listed populated but my Maverick contacts list is empty. For some reason the updated system no longer finds the contacts list which was used in Mountain Lion but it must be on the disk somewhere. Where do I find it and how do I get the Maverick Contact application to read OR import the Mountain Lion Contact list? (I do have a time machine backup).

Megan,
Do a Mail Merge from AddressBook to a Pages Document. The User Guide has details on doing the merge.
After you get the merged document, there will be only one contact per page, but that's easy to fix by doing a search and replace to get rid of the Section Breaks.

Importing AOL Address Book/Contact List into Apple Mail Program

This is probably an old and already answered queation, but it has just come up for me. Does anyone know how to export the AOL Address Book/Contact List so it can be imported into the Apple Mail Program? I would like not to have to reinter all the address when I drop AOL.

The AOL Service Assistant works fine for transfering the AOL contacts to the Apple Address Book. However, I was unable to get the AOL favorites to tansfer to Safari. It keeps hanging up with the rotating basketball. Any further suggestions?

How to add birthday on Mountain Lion?

Can anyone tell me how to add birthday on Mountain Lion? in contacts there is no such field.

With Contacts open, go to Preferences - Template, and open the Add Field dropdown menu. Select Birthday.
If you also want to add Anniversary information, select Dates in the drop-down menu. It appears that a new date field is defined automatically as Anniversary - but if it isn't on your machine, it's easy enough to change.

How do I re-install mountain lion if my macbook air is in this state?

I just now had the bright idea of restoring my mac and wiping it clean. I'm currently in the start-up process and I can't re-install mountain lion because I never bought it. I bought this macbook air from an aquaintence last year. How do I upgrade to mountain lion if my mac is like this? Is this issue really as simple as upgrading?

The software on the macbook was the most recent. It had already been upgraded to mountain lion by the previous owner.
Does the original owner or yourself have a Snow Leopard istall disc? I'm guessing no.
Unfortunately it looks like my situation has worsened. I'll click re-install mountain lion then continue and a message saying "to download and restore os x, your computer's eligibility will be verified with apple." I'll click continue and another message will appear saying something like "could not install to drive please contact applecare." I am no longer being asked to enter my apple id or password. I fear this is a "you have tried x amount of times so you are now locked out" situation. Thanks to both of you for responding so soon!
That I'm not sure of. If it were me I'd still buy a copy of SL as it's cheap and partition the hard drive so I have two OS on the same disc, (make the SL partiton about 25GB). You can use one to trouble shoot the other sometimes. It also means you can boot from DVD which I like.

If I buy an Imac now how do i upgrade when mountain lion is released

If I buy an Imac now how do i upgrade when mountain lion is released

The same way most of us upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion last summer. Perform one last backup just in case. Make sure all important software is up to date. Download the new OS from the Mac Apple Store. Run and wait until the installer finishes.
That's the short version. If you do a little searching with Google you'll find Macworld did a very nice upgrade article for Lion and I'm certain 99% of it will apply to ML as well.

HT2357 So how does this work on Mountain Lion? I cannot seem to ignore the iTunes 11 updates, which now seem to appear every 5 minutes!!

Fantastic! Didn't work at first so restarted App store and tried again. This time it asked 'ignore update'. All gone!

I have a pre-2008 Mac PRO how do I upgrade to Mountain Lion?

I have a pre-2008 Mac PRO how do I upgrade to Mountain Lion? On the Apple's site on upgrading (http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/), I see that "Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)" is required for the upgrade. What's up with that?
Will upgrading of the GPU do the trick?
I'm curretly on Snow Leopard, will I be limited to Lion?

Sync your old address book with the one on the iPod. You may have to import them into an intermediate address book like Google contacts since that can be done by importing a file you should be able to export for your address book. Without know your old address book that is all I can say.

How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

Hello and thanks for the answer.
I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
Enter the following information in the fields:
Server: google.com
User Name: Enter your full Google email address
Password: Your Google account password
Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
Additional Information
Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

That has never been a feature of Mac OS X, but I believe there was some kind of third-party software that could add that capability. i don't recall what its name is, but you must have had that installed, and it either isn't installed anymore (perhaps removed as incompatible?) or is not working properly in Mountain Lion.

How do I re-install Mountain Lion on a new hard drive (replacement)?

I have an older iMac 24" (2007) that has been up-graded to Mountain lion. I want to replace my hard drive with a bigger one (has 500Gb). How can I re-install Mountain Lion on my new drive? I have Time Machine on this machine.

Install 10.6 and 10.8 onto the new drive exactly how you did it on the old drive, except that you won't need to pay to redownload 10.8. Alternatively, if you kept a copy of the 10.8 installer, you can just rerun it.

How to go back to Mountain lion os x 10.8 again from mavericks.?

You can reinstall your system from a backup (Time Machine or "clone") or erase it completely and reinstall Mountain Lion.
OS X Mountain Lion: Erase and reinstall OS X
If your Mac shipped with Mountain Lion already installed, you can reinstall it. Otherwise, you can only reinstall Mountain Lion if you purchased it from the App Store.
You may be better off describing the problems you're experiencing, so that they can be fixed. The vast majority of Mavericks complaints are due to outdated or poorly written software or similarly incompatible system modifications, and some simple troubleshooting may reveal the cause.

I can only guess that the install process was interrupted, maybe after the files were extracted but before the install, maybe on the reboot?
If it was dome ot would say version 10.8. And you would have the reminder and notes apps as well, also an easy thing to check.
