How do I make mailing labels?

How do I make mailing labels from my contacts?  Apple support says it can not be done but I can't believe it.  There must be a way...does any one know how?

If you are storing your contacts in the Address Book App, there is definitely a way to make and print mail labels.
Here's how.

Hopefully, this procedure still works on newer versions of OS X.
Good Luck!

  • What program do I use to make mailing labels?

    I can no longer use Apple works for my mailing list.  What program should I get to make mailing labels, and how can I convert my old .cws databases to create mailing labels?
    Extremely frustrated with OpenOffice!!!

    I could not convert the database file from Appleworks, but I did get LibreOffice which is a free program, and it does open the old Appleworks files, and will convert them to .csv which can then be imported into "Contacts".  (create your new group in Contacts first, and import it into that)  LibreOffice might be able to convert into mailing labels, but I sure couldn't figure it out.  So I had to pull the .csv file into "Contacts".  Then from the print window, I can choose the options to print labels and it works.

  • How can I make address labels, preferably matching Avery sizes, in Pages please?

    How can I make address labels, preferably matching Avery sizes, in Pages please?  Please don't tell me there is no labels facility!!

    If you have your addresses set up in Address Book, the logical place for them, that is also the logical place to print them from.
    Pages will only use one data set per page, although there are ways around this. But then that wasn't your question.

    YEA!  My jurryrig worked!  To all with this problem:
    You CAN have podcasts in a regular playlist IF you convert them to a standard MP3 first.  So, yes, a lot of manual labor
    The good news: if, like me, it is a track that you listen to frequently (in my case meditations for sleep and relaxation) then the time is worth it.  I will mess with automator later to see if there is anyway to script this!  Then, less work for me and more for my mac.
    Here are the steps:
    Select the file from your Podcast folder.
    Change all data you need -- "artist," "album" etc...
    Make a copy of the cover art for this file by dragging it to the desktop.
    Select the Advanced -> Convert ID3 Tags menu item.
    Check ID3 tag version, and select "v1.0" from the drop-down menu.
    Drag the file to the desktop (this will make a copy of the MP3 on the desktop)
    Delete the file from the iTunes list.
    Drag the copy of the file you have on the Desktop back into iTunes.
    Search for the file in the Library, and add the cover art again to the file.
    Now the file is out of the Podcasts folder and works like a regular MP3 file inside iTunes. You can re-add it back to playlists!

  • How do I make Mail show unread msgs in bold?

    Hi-
    In the preferences for Mail 5.1 there exists an option to "show unread messages with bold font". 
    Checked or unchecked the unread messages look just like read ones.
    Is there a fix for this?  I tried to make a Rule but couldn't find "is unread" on the list.
    Actually I would settle for almost any difference; background color, italic, font color.
    How do I make Mail show unread msgs differently?
    thanks in advance for your help.

    Some more ideas on Smart Mailboxes.
    Please note that a Smart Mailbox does not move any email. It is just a search that collects matching email and displays them all together. You can move emails from the Smart Mailbox, and it will move the email from wherever it happens to be, into the folder you drop it into (except another smart mailbox)
    You can create smart mailboxes to group emails by date, also. I've got Last Week, This Week, and This Month set up. Notice how you can drop smart mailboxes on top of one another to group them. It doesn't affect the search that is conducted, just puts them together. You can also add that group of Smart Mailboxes to the toolbar.
    I use smart mailboxes for certain mailing lists where I just want to read and delete the list email, not move it into a mailbox for long-term storage. So, I create a smart mailbox for those list emails and I can show all the ones I haven't read/deleted.

    I am trying to use mircrosoft word to print mailing labels but when it asks me to convert the file from mircosoft excel it comes up with a system error.  HELP

    There is no way to create mailing labels using the built in contacts app. There is no facility for formatting labels and printing from within the app.
    There might be an app for that though.

  • How do you make address labels in Lion?

    I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to make address labels or envelope labels from my address book?  I have done this before, but I recently upgraded my macbook pro to Lion, and now I can't figure it out!  I spent hours yesterday trying everything I could think of, but no luck.  I have tried using Pages, but still nothing!  Can anyone help me?

    Did you have an address list defined in your address book last year? If so, you should be able to access it in the new Address Book by clicking on "View" and "Groups" and then (hopefully) your previous list will be there. If it is, just select it and then go to Print. Under "Style" choose "Mailing Labels." Select Layout on the tab next to Labels, and then select the type of labels; then click Labels. Choose from the drop-down menu on the order --I think the default is postal code order. Choose whether or not to print the country. This should work!
    If you did not have a Group defined previously, you can go to File and New Group to create one.

  • How can I make row labels appear on the right

    I am creating a timeline for a web development project in numbers
    I have changed the content scale to get it to fit on two pages (it's illegible on one page) but the tasks are overlaid on the grey column containing row labels
    How can I make the row labels appear on the right side instead of the left side?

    Thanks Badunit - that was a big help
    The counterintuitive part of this whole exercise is that to get the timeline printed as I want, I've got to leave the column representing Week 8 blank

  • How can I make a label for my chart that changes dynamically when I drag selection of data to adjacent column?

    I have a custom budget using Numbers '08 and have labeled a chart in previous versions of my budget but when I tried to update it for the new year I can't figure out how to make the label change dynamically as I drag the selected area to the adjacent column. I have checked Numbers Help and Tutorial videos as wellas the manual and have not found anything that comes close to helping but as I said I had it on previous versions but obviously don't remember how I did it and unfortuanately it is not a very intuitive feature. Thanks in advance for any help on this.

    The linkage appears to be automatic, but when broken, does not reattach itself.
    Redoing the chart isn'r a long process, though, unless you've made extensive format changes to it. Here's my process, which started with a headerless table wiht the Month labels in Row 1 (and a Chart that had an "Untitled" label on the category axis, and ended with the table and chart shown below:
    Click on any cell in the table to activate it.
    Go Table > Add Header Row.
    Select the cells containing the month names. Copy.
    Select the cells in the same columns of the Header row. Paste.
    Select the table. If the Header for the current month is highlighted and the month label is on the table, Stop here.  If not (and it probably will not be), continue.
    Delete the existing Chart (or drag it aside to use as a colour and style reference)
    Unhide any hidden rows used in the Chart.
    Select the cells to be charted.
    Click the Series orientation control (¡¡¡) to change it. The control will turn 90° and move from the column highlight to the row highlight.
    Your table and chart should now resemble the one in the image above. Edit the style as needed and you're done.
