I've a new account on iMac. When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar. WWhen I start keying in a name, it comes up with the address. How do I engage the contact list from the email?

I've a new account on iMac. When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email. When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced. How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

Help!!! My husband by accident synced his account under my account and has merged all of our contacts. In the process of fixing the mixup has deleted contacts on both phones. How do I restore the contact list from the original contact list.

I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.

I damaged my iPhone 4. I have ordered a new 4s. I never backed up or synced my contacts onto my sim card. Do you have to do that manually or will my contacts be on my phone when I put my sim card in the new iPhone 4s?

The iPhone under normal circumstances does not store contacts on the SIM Card. It can read them, but again under normal circumstances does not write them to the SIM Card.
When you sync your new iPhone to iTunes on your usual computer you can restore from a Back-Up of your old iPhone to get Contacts and other data and files installed on your new iPhone.

You can import the contacts from SIM.
It is covered in the manual:

Where are stored / located the contacts list on the blackberry device

Dear support staff
from time to time they happen those APP ERROR 523, 205 and so on
With utilities like BBSAK or BBMCP, you still have access to the devices, but you can save/dump/delete .COD files and maybe input RIM command line interface commands (WOW!, thouhg)
So the point it is, .COD files looks like to do not contain the contacts.
Where are located the databases?
Is there any command line interface to dump them and save them in the case of APP ERRORs and white screens of death?
Thank you for your kind hints and replies
Cor

Hello,
Contacts are one of the databases stored in the protected AppMemory area, not accessible by any normal means. Rather, what one must do (IMHO) is practice good backup procedures...a recommended set for which is contained within the link in my auto-sig on this post.
Data recovery is not, and has never been, a reactive venture...protecting ones critical data is a matter of practicing good backup procedures on an ongoing basis.
Good luck!

Check Settings, Sounds. Check the mute switch on the side of the phone.
While this picture is of an iPhone 4/4S, the mute switch is still the same.

Where is the contact list with the lion mail application

After I installed Lion OS, the Mail application does not have a link to the address book, how can this be fixed?

Is this what you are looking for?

Forwarding an email to access the contacts list in the "to" field?

Is there anyway to pull from contacts in the "to" field when forwarding a message instead of typing in first few letters of a name?

Finally find some solution! (complicated)
First you have to move your contacts.cdb file from phone to PC (with filemanager it is in system/Data/contacts.cdb) or you can backup phone to memory card and open backup.arc with nbu explorer then export contacs.cdb to somethere on PC. Then you may try to export contacts by noki software (not freeware), or in my case it doesn't work- just open contacs.cdb with any text editor. Then there is a lot of manual work, you have to find telephone numbers,copy them and dial by your "broken" phone. Contact names will display while dialing, and save in dial history. You can write them and phone you just dialed. Hard work, bro, but this is contacts... Good luck.

The contact list I get when emailing a photo inside camera is different from "contacts" or the one in my email account and it has incorrect email addresses in it. how do I change it or get rid of it.

How do I edit the contacts list that comes up when emailing a photo in the camera ap.

In the future, you might get better results if you post your own thread rather than responding to one that is this old (a year and a half).
When the contact that is not in your contact lists shows up, tap teh arrow beside it inteh list. The information pop up will give you the opportunity to remove it from the "Recents" list (or add it, if you choose).

How to create business card in the contact list

Problem adding contacts to the contact list in PSE7

I am running PSE 7 with Windows 7. I had a similar problem last February http://forums.adobe.com/thread/581476?tstart=0 trying to update the contact list. The only difference last year is a different PC and I was running XP.
I am running into the same problem today. In summary I could enter contacts manually or import via Outlook but once I closed the contact list and reopened nothing was updated. I followed all the instructions in John Ellis’s response http://forums.adobe.com/message/2583020#2583020 but it is not working this time. I am not logged into photoshop.com. I saw a link where this fixed someone else who was having a similar problem.
I have my preferences set to Microsoft Outlook. I am using Outlook 2003.
Does anyone have an idea what I should try next.

Yesterday I posted this thread. After I convinced my self that I was properly following the directions given by John Ellis I needed to start elsewhere to resolve the problem.
What I did was found my contacts.xml file and moved it to my documents folder. I then went back to the organizer and attempted to load the additional contacts expecting the contacts folder to be empty. It was not. I loaded the new contacts using the vcard/desktop method per John’s thread. Now everything is updating and an updated contact folder is in the original location.
Can anyone explain how the new contact folder acquired all the original contacts?

Is there some way to add multiple addresses to an email I am sending that doesn't close the contact list after I click on an address? This necessitates constantly going back to click the + sign to add each address separately.

Is there some way to add multiple addresses to an email I am sending that doesn't close the contact list after I click on an address? This necessitates constantly going back to click the + sign to add each address separately. Is there some way I can open the contact list, click on all of the individual addresses to which I want to send the email without the list closing between each address entry, and have all of my address entries be listed to the email at one time? Something like it works in Gmail. I do not want to use set lists, I want to enter different addresses each time I send an email. And I am a very slow typist, so I don't want to type the first few letters of each recipient's name. It is much faster for me to just click on the e-mail addresses in the list as a group. It doesn't make any sense to me to have to reopen the contact list for each address, when it should be so easy to click on all of the addresses I want at one time and then click once to add them all to the email as a group. If there is a solution to this, please tell me. Thanks.

Vatlily,
Try this:
1. Select Mail>File>New Message.
2. Select Mail>Window>Address Panel.
3. Use (command+click) on the desired addressees in the Address Panel to create the list.
4. Click "To:" on the top left of the Address Panel.
The group that you selected will be added to the "To" field in your New Message.

If someone is removed from the contact list...

If someone is removed from the contact list, but the other person has them on block. Can they view the previous messages? Can they still send messages even after being removed?

To stop future emails, click 'My Stuff' at top right, select 'Preferences' , then in the next page select the 'Email Notification Preferences' tab and click all the 'No' radio buttons. Then click 'Save'.
If you already have notifications set on some threads you will still get emails from them. Click on your username at the top, then under 'Actions' in the right sidebar, select "'Manage email notifications.' This will show the threads you've set up notifications on in the past. Select those you want to stop and click the 'Remove Selected Notifications' button at bottom.
