Can I set up Groups of contacts on Mac Mail?
Thanks  markinnyon

Yes, you can. Is "Mac OS X (10.7)"  still your current system?
You can create groups from the File menu in the "Address Book /Contacts" application.
In Contacts on Yosemite:

  • Can I set up an email account in Mac mail if it already exists in mac for outlook?

    Can I set up an email account in mac mail if it already exists in mac outlook or do I need to delete the outlook account first? I have tried to set it up and its not working.

    Mail and Outlook are two different applications, so you can maintain the same account in both, incl sending and receiving.
    What matters is that the setup is correct. E.g., is it a POP3 or IMAP account? By default, IMAP stores all mails on the (ISP's) server, while POP3 usually deletes it there after it's been received. So, with IMAP you'd easily have your mails everywhere, in every client, while with POP3 it's only in the client which you used most recently, so to speak.

  • Can't set up hotmail.co.uk with mac mail

    Hello everyone, and thanks for your patience as I know very similar queries have been answered already in previous discussions.
    I have just bought my first mac after years of pc use.
    I would love to be able to access my hotmail.co.uk account through mac mail on os x tiger.
    However, despite following all previous posts as accurately as I possibly can, this still won't work. For this reason, I have transcribed absolutely everything I enter into the account setup below, to see if anyone can see where I keep going wrong.
    I have downloaded httpmail (http://www.automagic-software.com/products.php) as suggested on previous posts.
    Also as suggested on a previous discussion, I have set mail to run using rosetta, to help deal with any complications I may face using my intel macbook.
    My email address is [email protected]
    Now, when I go to set up my account on mail, I enter:
    PAGE 1: GENERAL INFORMATION
    Account type: httpmail
    Account description: Hotmail acccount
    Full name: Alistair White
    Email address: [email protected]
    PAGE 2: INCOMING MAIL SERVER
    Incoming mail server: www.hotmail.co.uk
    Username: awhitetbn
    Password: ******
    I am then presented with the account summary:
    Account description: Hotmail account
    Full name: Alistair White
    Email address: [email protected]
    Username: awhitetbn
    Incoming mail server: www.hotmail.co.uk
    SSL: off
    Outgoing mail server: services.msn.com:awhitetbn
    SSL: off
    Next page: Conclusion: a new account has been created.
    Ok! All seems well, so I send a test email. However, I get the following message:
    Cannot send message using the server services.msn.com:awhitetbn
    Use the pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server.
    However, in the pop-up menu, the only option I have is:
    send message using: HTTPmail:awhitetbn
    I would dearly love this to work and I sense I am not far from the solution... If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. Where am I going wrong?
    Many many thanks
    Alistair White

  • How can I set up group contacts on my IPad Air?

    HOw can I set up group contacts on my IPad Air?

    I Don't know if you can or not.
    but you could try one if these 2 things:
    -under a new contact in name type the names of the people. Next, I'm not sure if this will work, but for phone just put a different hone down.
    -Also tou could just make a group message. In messages just type all the names in the to field after you tap compose.

  • How can I set up a second Contacts folder on my IPhone

    I have an Iphone and a Palm Pilot.  I want to stop carring the Palm, and have the contacts there put on the IPhone.
    I came upon Plaxo, which would allow me to sync from desktops and laptops to the net, as well as syncing with my IPhone.
    However, it appears that Plaxo will sync with the IPhone Contact folder, then wipe out the subset of numbers I keep there.  I want to keep the contacts separate - especially because of the ringer tone controls.
    Is there a way to create a second contact folder that I can sync with Plaxo, which will keep separate the current IPhone contacts in my existing Contacts folder?
    My existing contacts folder was created, in a way I which I knew, when I got the phone.  It is a 3G, using 4.2.1 (8C148)..

    If I can not set up a second Contacts folder, does anybody have an alternative way of having contact information that a person could see the information from an Outlook Format available for viewing?

  • How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels

    How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels ? I used to be able to do this but in Mavericks this ability seems to have gone away. Am I missing something ?

    Actually in my case it doesn't work. I used to be able to pull up the font window with it but the button merely flickers when I click it. The image selection button and font color both are functional. WEIRD. I don't think this is a Mavericks issue as I recall having it come up with one of my user profiles before installing. Now I can't make it happen with either of my user profiles.
    I don't seem to have printing issues in other applications. And I recently reset the fonts in a futile attempt to correct this.
    I may post a new topic in Mail Contacts and Calendar if there is no response here after a bit.

  • How do I set up an alias email with Mac Mail, so that my alias shows up when I send email from my Mac Mail account?

    I am have an email forwarding service, not an email account, which I want to set up as an alias for Mac Mail so that my email appears in the "from" address when I send messages from Mac Mail. I'm having trouble figuring out what I need to do to set up this configuration. Thanks so much for your help!

    There are a couple of ways of doing this. The easiest is probably to just add the secondary address in the Mail.app -> Preferences -> Accounts field.
    The specifics of which vary a little based on the OS/Mail.app version you're running, but in Yosemite:
    Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts
    Select your iCloud account and change the 'Alias' popup menu from your iCloud address to 'custom'.
    Doing this enables the 'Email Address' field. In this field you can enter the email address you want to appear in your From header.
    If you want to use multiple addresses (e.g. your iCloud address and your other alias), you can enter a comma-separated list of addresses - e.g. '[email protected], [email protected]' and then you'll have a pop-up menu on each new message where you can choose the address to use for each outgoing message. You can also set the default address in Preferences -> Composing -> Send new messages from:
