HT1338 address book, max number of contacts allowed???

I'm importing some Vcards into my macbook air address book, but its stock on 1043, is there a limit for the contacts that can be manage by this application?

This isn't an iSync question, but there is no forum for Address Book, at least not one I found.
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=753
i have a group with 160 contacts in it; when I try to send a group email it bounces back to me with the message "Too many contacts". I looked up this question in Address Book Help but there's nothing there to answer it.
That's because it's not an Address Book issue - it's an email issue. You don't say who your email provider is, but most impose limits on the number of contacts a single email can be sent to, to prevent spammers from sending out emails to hundreds or thousands of people in one go.
Is there a maximum number?
Most likely.
If so, what is it?
You'd have to contact your email provider to ask them.
Can I increase it?
Most likely not.

HT1338 ADDRESS Book - why is a contact i added to my macbookpro not appearing in my iPhone 4s and iPad 1 via iCloud

why is an address i added to my macbookpro not appearing in my iphone and ipad?

Did you add it to iCloud contacts or Local contacts. Check and see what lists you have in Addresses Book. Is it showing On My Mac contacts and iCloud? When you select all contacts, does it show duplicates?

HT1351 My fifth generation nano will no longer sync my address book from my Mac. It gives me an error message that "You have no contacts" and asks me if I want to create some. My address book is full of contacts. Sync works for everything else.

My 5th generation nano will no longer Sync my address book from my Mac. It gives me a message that I have no "Contacts", and asks if I want to create some. My address book is full of contacts, but for some reason it thinks it is empty. All the other sync operations work fine including iCal. My Mac is running OS X 10.7.4.

It sounds like all of your contacts on your Mac running Lion are actually stored up in iCloud.
Several users running Mac OS X Lion and now ML (and iCloud) have no longer been able to "sync" contacts over to their older iPods models.
A work around is to export all of your contacts out of Address Book as vCards and them copy these vCards into your iPod's Contacts folder. You'll need to have the Enable Disk Use option ticked from under the iPod's Summary tab in order to browse out to the iPod's Contacts folder via the Finder.
Using your iPod as a storage drive
That's the only "solution" I have been able to use to get contacts to sync/appear on my 5G iPod Video.

Max number of Thread allowed

I am writing a multi threading program.
is there any limit on max number of thread allowed?
if yes, how to check the limit?

For the language: no. It depends on your memory (every Thread has its own stack, etc.).

Is there a difference in the mac mini address book and my iPhone contacts? I have them both as well as my Ipad2 connected on I could but these don't seem to be sharing contacts. It worked in the store. What have I done wrong?

I use an i-pad and my primary account email is aol. Is there a way to import my aol address book onto my ipad "contacts?"

Oops, I found the answer to my question. Great knowledge base! I had originally imported via the automatic popup dialog box that appeared when I installed TB, and didn't absorb at the time that there would be a way to do an import later, after TB install, too, and even for specific parts of OE (address book vs. mail messages, etc.).
I pasted the link to the "Migrate to Thunderbird" page that includes how to migrate just an Address Book from OE, but the following is all that pastes in: 9723729938

Address book stuck and all contacts gone

when i open up address book none of my contacts appear and switching from directories to all contacts just resizes the empty window back and forth. when i try to resize the window using the handle on the lower right corner it keeps stretching out horizontally till it runs off the screen. I checked for the Helvetica font in system/library/fonts and it is there. it is also activated in font book. tried dumping com.apple.AddressBook.plist from my user/library/preferences, and tried various recommendations i found on these forums for renaming and replacing files in user/library/application support/address book. also tried dumping the address book from applications and reinstalling using pacifist.
nothing has worked.
in console i get either:
Address Book[614] * -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (2) beyond bounds (2)
or
Address Book[614] * -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0)
i was considering reinstallling the 10.3.9 combo update. anyone have any other suggestions?
thanks

Address Book Cards and Mail Contacts have suddenly disappeared!

Help! The power went off for a minute here at the office, shutting everything down. When I restarted, the contents of my address book and all the contacts I had in mail have disappeared. Anybody got any ideas on what I can do? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the discussions, malbright.
Try the suggestion in Loading “Apple - Support - Discussions - Address Book has suddenly LOST all my ...” - but it doesn't always work.

Address Book / iCloud Deletes Imported Contacts Shortly after Import

I ran into a incredbily frustrating problem recently whereby attempting to restore a backup of my Address Book resulted all my contacts being deleted once I reconnected my computer to the internet and my Address Book began syncing with iCloud. I wasn't able to find a solution here but I was able to eventually find one online. I thought it was worth sharing.
Upon exporting a backup of your Address Book you have the choice of slecting to export the Backup as a "Address Book Archive" or as "vCard". If you select "Address Book Archive" and are syncing with iCloud when you attempt to reimport your backup, after about 15 to 30 seconds, iCloud will delete all of the Contacts you've just imported.
Exporting a "Address Book Archive" creates a ".abbu" backup file whereas exporting as a "vCard" exports a ".vcf" backup file. Apparently iCloud doesn't like ".abbu" backup files, but if you didn't know that and you're trying to import your backup contact file you're pretty much screwed!
To get around this problem do the following:
1) Disconnect your computer from the internet
2) Import the "Address Book Archive" ".abbu" backup file into your Address Book
3) Select "All Contacts"
4) Select, File > Export > Export vCard...
5) Save the file to your Desktop
6) Reconnect your computer to the Internet
7) Select "Import"
8) Select the ".vcf" file that you just saved to your Desktop.
Importing your backup as a ".vcf" file will prevent iCloud from deleting all of your contacts upon syncing.
... at least it did for me ( :

I had the same problem on both my iPad & iPhone. I adding a contact on my iPad and now everything seems to sync properly. Hmmm, interesting..... THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTION.

TXT Message, Max Number of Contacts??

Hi
When sending a txt message, whats the max number of contacts u can send a message to? Since I've updates to iOS 4.1, I can only TXT 8 contacts at once.
Baz

Hi
My iPhone 4 isn't Jailbroken and has iOS 4.1 installed. Since my original post I've had a play about. This is exactly what happens:
1. I receive a txt message.
2. Select edit and the forward.
3. The To field is blank with the + symbol on the right.
4. I start to select the contacts I want to forward the txt to.
5. I get to ten contacts and the + symbol disappears
6. To add further contacts I touch the field where the txt is.
7. I touch the To field again.
8. The + symbol reappears and I can then start to add further contacts.
Is this normal?
Thanks
Baz

How do I setup Address Book to view shared contacts on Exchange Server 2010?

At work we have MS Exchange Server 2010. I recently switched from Entourage to native OSX Lion apps Mail, iCal and Address Book. Mail and iCal work fine so far with Exchange (IE. I can add delegates, see their calendars, etc.) but when using Address Book, I can only see my contacts. In Entourage I was able to search other user's contacts and copy them to mine if I desired. Is this not possible with Address Book?

Are you sure you did that right ... because I did a File/Backup Address Book, and the file named included the date. I then copied the file through our Airport network from the Powerbook to a new iMac. The opening Address Book on the iMac, I did a File/Revert to Address Book Backup, which allows you to choose the file. Now the iMac had the same Address Book file as the Powerbook. This looks to me to be the same thing you are trying to do.

When forwarding an email, is there a way to have an Address Book folder drop down to allow selecting the adressees?

When I forward emails, I usually want to forward to a number of folks from one or two of my Address Book folders and I don't normally want to send to all of the people in each of those folders. I like to tailor the mailing list for each email and in other email apps I've used, once I click on the TO: or BCC: box, a list of my Address Book folders drops down and then I can select a folder from which I can just click on each of the recipients I want for that specific email message. Is this a capability of Thunderbird?

Once you have the Write window open, press F9 to open the Contact Sidebar. Select your contacts from there.

Address book jumping to first contact

Alright. Here's my problem. Whenever I get to a specific contact in the middle of the Address book the address book will change the highlighted contact to the very first contact. This means whenever I try to select and edit or view (as an example) Mike, the selected contact all of a sudden becomes Alex and i'm back at the top of the contact list.

If you go to print, you have the option of printing an envelope with their address and your return address on a #10 envelope using either home or biz addresses for each.
Play with clicking on the labels. I often use the Large Type if I'm going to call a phone number. Also mapping an address is a useful feature.

Address Book (on Mac) and Contacts (on iPod don't bhave the same way...

Hi all.
In Address Book (AB), I've flagged some contacts as "Company"; these are business contacts and AB displays them based on the company name which is OK. It doesn't display the person's name in the list, which is OK. If I do a search on the person's name, though, AB finds and displays the appropriate contact. This AB is synced with my iPod touch (IPT).
HOWEVER, when I do a search on the person's name in Contacts on the IPT, it doesn't find it!
As far as you know, is this a limitation of Contacts or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!

See: How to Transfer Music Between the Computer and iPod
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.
Manage the iPod either Fully-Auto, Manually or via Selected Playlists.

Address Book Gone Blank though contacts are still in memory

This last weekend, when i was trying to save a number, my address book became blank. To make my numbers reappear, i had to Option>Sort By and change what I sort by, either to Last or First Name, and then SAVE. My numbers would then reappear temporarily. When I switch application, say go to my inbox, and then go back to the address book, all my contacts are blank again. To make them reappear, I have to change and save the SORT BY option again. I already checked the FILTER option and it's set to PERSONAL. My OS version is 4.2.
This problem just started this weekend and I did not download or update anything at all to trigger this bug.
I tried to look for a similar thread in the forum, but couldnot find this exact same problem.
Thanks in advance for any tips.
