HT2486 Address Book display

My address book display is not like the one shown. Why?

Have you tried resetting your sort option in Address Book / Preferences? Change it from whatever you have it (e.g. First Name) to the other choice. Then try to Search a contact. If it works, then go back in and reset it to what you had it before.

5800 Address Book Display

Hi, just got the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and was wondering if anybody knows how to change the address book display. In all my previous Nokia phones I have had the choice of displaying just Names, or Name & Number, but I cannot find any settings that allow me to change this in this phone. It just displays the names.

In address book, display address or other columns

I cannot figure out how to display additional fields/columns in address book. I can adjust size of existing fields but adding new fields is a puzzler.

Thanks so much. I guess I was clicking on the right mouse button, not the left.

Adding a Column to the Top of Address Book Display

I guess I have two problems in Address Book.
1. How do I add a custom field that is not on the list in "Template?" I want to add something called "show date" to all my address cards.
2. I want to have "show date" display at the top of the Address Book window in the middle column, where name is now shown. I'd like it to be Name, then Show Date, and be able to sort it by either one.
Any ideas? I won't be disappointed if it can't be done, but I thought I should check here just in case.
Thanks!

whjk,
Select the bars - click once on the Chart and then click on one of the bars.
Open the Chart Inspector and click the Series button. Click on the Value Label Checkbox and then click on one of the Position buttons.
Feel free to download the Numbers User Guide and consult it. There's a link in the Help menu.

Address book display?

I just updated to 4.5 on my 8310, ATT. Now my address book shows up as two lines instead of one. I prefer the single line. Can't find a way to get back to that. TIA.

That is the new address book view on OS 4.5... a new feature
You can't toggle that to a one line view. Sorry.

Changing How Address Book Displays Search Results

When I use Search in Address Book the result everytime shows as the bottom item in the resulting list with extraneous items above it. It seems to me that the items below the first result are more pertinent to my search, but they aren't displayed, I have to scroll down to see them. Is there a way to change that so that the top item is my first result and the items below it appear?

That's an interesting question, so I tried it myself.
I found that all of the cards listed contained the search term, as expected, but the term was not necessarily in the name. So there seems to be no weighting given to the location of the search term (eg Finding it in the Notes could be less important than in the name). I can't disagree with this strategy.
Secondly, the found set of cards are listed in the normal order I'd defined in the preferences 'Sort by' option, again just as expected.
So the question returns as to why the result chooses the particular card it does. And the answer seems to be that the chosen card is the last one with the most matches.
I searched for St, and got many matchiing cards, and the chosen one had 3 occurences. I looked through the list, and there were a few other cards with 3 occurences of the match, but none with 4 occurences. So the chosen card was the last one with the most matches.
I then chose a card without a match and added some notes which had 4 occurences, and the following search for St then picked that card.
So you're actually getting what you have asked for (the last of the best matches). Its just unfortunate that generally the card you want is not the one with most matches.

HT2486 Address book data loss / iMac 10.5.8 / despite backing up on a NAS all data lost, including in the backup. How can I retrieve it? Thanks

Help! All my address book data disappeared from one day to the next. I entered my NAS back-up but all the address books going back in time are empty.
Then I got clever and thought I would sync my contacts from my iPhone 4 to my iMac. Brilliant idea - now all my iPhone contacts are gone as well except for 14 address that must have been input after my last sync with iTunes.
Can anyone help my find my lost data?
Thanks

HT2486 Address book assigning images on its own.

Images getting changed by address book. From time to time, AB unilaterally decides to change a few contacts images, or to attach images from other contacts to contacts without an image. Anybody seen the same problem ?

You're not using Address Book correctly; you need to enter both a First and Last Name for each contact; not just a Last Name, or in All Caps. Mail and Address Book communicate, so when you receive an email from someone in Address Book, their name as they associated it with their email address when the account was setup is sent to Address Book and updated immediately.
That's why you will end up with double first names or last names, depending on what you entered. The solution is not to do that and use Address Book correctly.
