How to I get my data from my old address book?

I upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard. Before installing Snow Leopard, I backed all data with Super Duper because I knew the hard drive would be wiped before the install. I can find the old address book backup in a folder under Super Duper but I cannot get the Address Book to open it. Is there another way or worse case is there a way to dump the data out of AddressBook.data so that I could re-enter it in the new version?
Thanks
Paul

Start up using 10.4 on the external drive. Then open the Address Book and under File>Export select Address Book Archive. Then when you've restarted in 10.6 find the Address Book Archive on the external drive and move it to your new hard drive. Then open Address Book and under File>Import select the Address Book Archive.

  • Need help getting the data from my old address book

    Can someone tell me what file I need to copy and where to restore all my addresses from my old address book. I elected not to migrate everything to avoid problems, but that is one important and long list.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Look in the folder ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ for the files containing your data, where ~ is the item in the Finder's sidebar with the house icon.

    How can I get my data from a old iPad to a new iPad using iCloud and not iTunes

    Restore from the iCloud backup - assuming that you were backing up to iCloud in the first place. If you weren't using iCloud for backup - then you are out of luck.
    If you were backing up to iCloud - you have to erase all contents on the iPad in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings - before you can restore from the iCloud backup.

  • How do I get my data from my old iphone to a new iphone?

    Hi
    I backed-up the data from my old iphone via itunes onto my computer.  Now, I have "restored" the replacement iphone- or so I thought.  There is none of my old info onto this new phone.  Help.  I am at a loss.  Where do I go to get all of my old data- contacts, apps, music, etc...
    Thanks,
    Cat

    Nope. 
    Something went wrong.
    I've done it twice now and followed the directions on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Doesn't work.  I have no contacts indicated and no notes, etc... from my old iphone.
    I have an iphone 4 - so there is no SIM card.  Maybe I didn't back up the data properly from the old iphone.  I haven't deleted anything yet so I guess I could do the whole process over...
    No clue.

  • How Can we get the data from Non-SAP to SAP in WebDynpro

    Hi,
    I hope u understand my query, How can we get the data from Non-SAP to SAP thru WebDynpro Programming.
    Help out with the steps for getting the data or procedure.
    Regards,
    Mutyapu

    You can expose the APIs in the Non-SAP backend as Web Services, and consume them in SAP by creating an Enterprise Proxy. Then these can be called just like normal class methods from Web Dynpro.

  • How can i get the data from database & add them as a link

    Hi,
    how can i get a data from a database(DB2) and that data will be having a file so i should make them as a link.i tried it in jsp .
    <%
    Class.forName("COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver");
    Class.forName("COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.net.DB2Driver");     
    response.setContentType("text/html");
    Connection conn = null;
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:db2:spintran");
    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
    stmt.executeQuery("set current schema tut");
    ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from tutorial");     
    %>
    Type Of the Category : &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp
    <%
         while (rs.next())
         String desc = rs.getString(1);     
         out.println(desc);
    %>
         <A HREF = "<%=desc%>"><%=desc%> </A>
         <%
         %>
    but it is not working.how can i link.
    thank you.

    what is desc? is it the file name ? whats the data type of desc in db? INFILE?
    if desc is just the name of the file, then make sure that such a file exists in the proper folder.only then the link works..
    that is, if desc is 'a.jpg' then a.jpg should be existing in the same folder as your html is.

  • How do I get routing data from the Map App (powered by TomTom) so I can display the point-to-point annotations (turn-by-turn navigation) without leaving my own application.

    I have a tableView displaying a list of contacts from a Cloud Database.  After selecting a contact, I push to a programmatically created MKMapView.  Then I display the initial region (the view) that includes the users current location (starting point) and their selected destination (end point).
    Now I want to display annotations (as described in the Location Awareness Programming Guide) that displays polylines which will represent the turn-by-turn navigation IN MY OWN APPLICATION, and not in the Map App currently used in IOS6. 
    Due to licensing and its becoming depricated in IOS 6, I do not want to get routing data from the Google Maps API.  How do I get routing data from the IOS 6 Map App (powered by TomTom) so I can display the point-to-point annotations (turn-by-turn navigation) without leaving my own application?
    I checked out Stack Overflow and other forums which basically left me with the impression that this is not possible. I also checked out the TomTom iPhone Mobile SDK User Guide from the TomTom Developer Portal and am still confused.  It must be possible to retrieve routes, since the Map App can display turn-by-turn directions.  How can I retrieve turn-by-turn data that I may display as a route within my own application?

    Thanks Michael. Apologies for the slow reply I was away for a bit (holiday blitz at work and visiting family madness etc.etc.) back now, I set both options you requested to "never " and retried the CMS software with no change. 
    I do have progress of a sort though, as a test I took a separate test PC and put a clean install of Win7 on and loaded up the CMS software (it worked perfectly) and then took the version of ole32.dll off that machine and put it onto the computer I had built
    for her (using Linux) and...
    got a new error code. Darn I was so sure I had found a clever solution this time lol.
    Anyway now when the CMS fails it gives me a similar error but the offending module is "ntdll.dll" sooo... I tried taking the "working" version of ntdll.dll from the test box and moving it over (making sure to back up the existing ones
    first so I could put them back if needed) to her new PC and the PC would not boot. 
    It seems to want the original versions of a few Dynamic Link Libraries and if I could somehow give it those while not breaking Win7 it should theoretically work seeing as it no longer errors with ole32.dll. 
    ntdll.dll however seems necessary for Win7 to boot.
    So what I am wondering now is:
    Is there some way to have both versions of the DLL file in the system32 folder (bypassing the "cannot have two files with the exact same name in the same folder" thing) or rename the original DLL's something else and somehow make the CMS look for
    the new named versions so the system has the updated DLL's it needs to boot/run and the CMS has the old ones it wants to run or is there someway to have a self contained install of the CMS, say on a USB flash drive and give it it's own E:/windows/system32/needed
    dll's  path to the files it needs? 
    Willing to try any other options or settings you may have come up with as well.
    Thanks again for your reply and my apologies for not answering sooner.

  • How do you get deleted data from the app Tote M'Notes back on iPad ????

    How do I get deleted data from app Tote M'Notes back???...Not displaying in my notebook anymore...also how do i retrieve data from apps stored in Icloud?

    Why don't you use the fully-qualified-domain-name (FQDN) of your GW and perform a re-direct to this ?
    This should be known (and everytime the same), addtionally you won't have any problems if there's any load balancer in between or in fron of the GWs.
    Secondly you'll have problems to get the IP -address if there's any proxy server involved.

    If you don't get helpful replies, I suggest you try to improve your question style a bit. There are many non native English speakers around here and the ability to phrase slick sentences varies. But for a start you could try to adhere to minimal English language standards like starting a sentence with an uppercase letter, and ending a sentence with a dot and a blank to separate it from the next sentence. Don't use ellipses (...) all over the place suggesting that the reader knows what you want to say. Rather please say it.
    Its is good style to only post the necessary code to understand the problem. However, the code you posted seems to be cut off too early to even get a grasp at what you are trying to achieve.

  • How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive

    How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive? I have an iMac with a 320gb internal HD that is full and I am replacing it with a 2tb internal drive. I have several external drives; 1 tb, 2tb and 3 tb. The 2 tb is being used for Time Machine. Do I have to buy an enclosure? If so, where would I get an inexpensive one?
    I also want to partition the new internal drive for Windows, and I'm not sure how much space to use for that. I plan to use Windows to check my work in PowerPoint created on my Mac for clients on PCs.

    Do you already have Time Machine making backups onto the 2TB drive? If so, after you get the internal drive replaced, boot up into the recovery partition (hold down ⌘R) and restore the latest Time Machine backup that you have onto the new internal drive.
    I recommend always having two backups. I'd use SuperDuper to make a complete clone of your internal drive onto an external drive in addition to having the Time Machine backup.
    Boot Camp is what is used to make partitions for Windows. How much space to allocate depends on how much space you expect Windows to use up based on how you plan to use it.
