On your Macbook Pro, go to "system preferences", click "icloud" and then check the box for "contacts". Then on your iPad, go to "settings", click "icloud" and make sure that the "contacts" option is "on". That should work.

How to transfer Address Book from old iMac to new MacBook Pro?

I will soon be getting a MacBook Pro 15" Intel Core i5 with Snow Leopard and want to transfer my Address Book from my old 2003 iMac flat 15" panel running 10.4.11. What is the best way to do that? Is there a particular file or folder that I can copy onto a flash drive to transfer to the new computer? Or can I use my Mobile Me Backup that is on my external drive (or on CD) to do it even though the Backup on the new computer would be a newer version from the older Backup that has the data? I would like to avoid having to use the Migration Assistant if I can, since it looks like that is designed to transfer whole categories of files (like all "files and folders", etc.), which I don't want to do. Thanks in advance for the help.

When I bought my new MacBook Pro, the sales person showed me how to do the V-card method that you suggested. I tried it at home, and it worked. I have been worrying for years about the best way to do this, so was very relieved to find such a simple method. David Pogue in the Tiger Missing Manual also mentioned another tip which I used: he said to select all the address entries you want to transfer (in my case it was all of them) and then just drag the whole lot out onto the desktop. A V-card icon appeared that said: "Name of Person plus 344 others". I then copied that to a flash drive and then onto the new computer desktop. I then dragged it into the Address Book window. As you said it was done in a matter of seconds. Thank you so much!

Make a new contact group in Address Book that will be the place where you store the contacts from the RAZR
Use iSync to retrieve the contacts from the RAZR over bluetooth, and put the phone contacts into the new contact group you just made
Then, when syncing the iphone, activate that group in iTunes to sync contacts to the iPhone
viola! no typing, no nothing way to move the contacts.
Of course, I am assuming that you have bluetooth on your mac.

How do I transfer my address book from older mac to new macbook pro?

I assume you means the contacts. The Address Book includes an export feature, which may be slightly different for an earlier version. At the menu bar, go to File > Export. If there is an Address Book Archive selection, use that.
Transfer the exported archive to your new Mac. Use the import option with the Address Book on your new Mac to import the archive.

How to transfer a book from iPhone to iMac

Hi,
I pre-ordered a book but when it's available to download, I can't download it on the mac. But I have no problems downloading it on my iPhone.
Any ideas why it's happening? Can I transfer the book from the phone to mac via iTunes? (I only know how to sync books from iTunes to iPhone, but not vice versa.)
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

Thanks guys for your posts, but I'm giving up on it.
Tried logging in and out. Didn't work.
Tried transferring purchases from iPhone to mac via iTunes. Didn't work.
One thing did change however, which is now in iTunes on the mac, I can see the book under the Settings/Books section ( i think it means I have this book on the mac). If I delete the book on iPhone, I can succesfully regain it by syncing from mac to iPhone using iTunes. But the fact is, I don't have the book in iBooks on mac. It still has this cloud icon in the upper right corner. And no matter how many times I tried to download it, it just didn't work.
Too frustrating to fix this problem. I guess I'm better off just viewing it on the phone.
Thanks guys for your help again!
