HT2486 Can multiple 'appleIDs' share a common address book?

I would like to share a common address book between multiple users, so that we can see and update a core set of contacts.  Is this possible, as I understand each address book to be assigned to an applieID.

  • Can multiple iPhones share the same iTunes account?

    My daughter received her first iPhone.  She activated it today using my iTunes account and all of my contacts were overwritten with her contacts. How can we fix this? My other daughter received hers today as well but she hasn't activated it yet. What can we do to prevent this from happening? Also, can multiple iPhones share one iTunes account?
    Thanks

  • HT2513 I have a family with 5 iPhones and separate iCloud accounts. How can we all share a common calendar?

    My family had 5 iPhone 4S with separate iCloud accounts. How can we all share a common ICal amongst each other to manage the family schedule.

    So you've shared the calendar, your family has accepted and added the calendar to their devices, but they do not recieve any changes or additons thay have been made since then? Is that correct?
    Is the calendar you shared in your iCloud accounts in Calendar (as opposed to another account you've set up to sync calendars with your device)?
    What happens if one of you family members attempts to edit the calendar?
    Do you have a computer form which you can access the iCloud.com site? Does it refelct the latest updates to the shared calendar?

  • How can multiple vis share input from a DAQ simutaneously

    How can multiple vis share data input from a DAQ simutaneously?
    Recently I am building a EMG measurement platform and somehow DAQ data need to be shared by several vis at the same  time.
    Are there any ideas?

    If you may need to add/delete tasks that will need th edata you may want to consider a publich/subscribe pattern. Basically your DAQ task will post a message to a single queue. The process listening on this queue (message broker) will determine if there are other processes registered to receive this message. When a device registers for a message it provides a queue to receive it on. The message broker will then post the message to all interested processes. The nice thing about this pattern is that you have dedicated code to handle broadcasting the message and it is very easy at run time to change the number of processes that get the message. The DAQ task will always send the message and will not care how many processes are listening.

  • How can I recover my accidentaly deleted address book?

    I was working in my address book this morning and selected a contact that I wanted to delete. When I pressed the delete button, all of a sudden my entire address book dissapeared. I'm fairly sure I only selected the specific contact, but apparently somehow my entire address book got deleted with it.
    I can still see the two default address books of thunderbird on the left side, but they always have been and still are empty. The third address book (the one that I've been using the past years), is completely gone.
    I have tried to recover the address book in multiple ways:
    - looked in the recycle bin of my computer and of thunderbird, but there was nothing to be found in both of them
    - I used the 'undo' button about 4 to 5 times, but nothing happened unfortunately. Ctrl+z didn't give any response as well
    - I waited with closing thunderbird, untiI I looked up my Thunderbird profile in user/appdata/roaming/thunderbird/profiles/****.defaul. I copied the abook.mab file to another directory, closed thunderbird and restarted it. Unfortunately this didn't help either.
    - I've also tried to recover any deleted files on my entire computer using Recuva software. I haven't been able to find anything related to the address book thought.
    Is there any way to retrieve/recover my thunderbird address book?
    I haven't been able to find a good solution online as of yet. But I figure it can't just be completely gone after I've clicked teh delete button by accident, right?
    I'm using thunderbird 24.4.0 on Windows 8.1. Currently I am not using a tool to synchronise the address book to my google account, because I'm working with the maillinglist and I haven't found a way to synchronise them fully. So there's no recent backup of the address book unfortunately.
    I really hope you can help me with this. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks a lot for your fast reply!
    I've tried both options you gave, but unfortunately didn't manage to restore/retrieve any data from the file. The MoreFunctionsForAddressBook add on is very user friendly however and easy to work with.
    I also found a few threads that explain that it is possibe to open the original abook.mab file in a text editor and delete some entries in it, to 'turn back' the command that said to delete the addressbook in the first place.
    This is the one I've found and tried to follow: http://www.pirules.org/blog/?page_id=312 and
    I've played around with it a bit, and managed to retrieve the specific address I was meaning to delete at the time the whole addressbook got accidentaly deleted. I didn't manage to retrieve the full addressbook though, mostly because I have a hard time understanding the code language that is used in the file....
    Could this be an option for me? And if so, how do I determine which entry to delete from the file and which one to leave alone?

  • How can I get smart group in address book to email?

    Feb 15, 2012 9:58 AM
    Hi
    I'm trying to send an email out to a smart group I created which has about 150 members.  I right click send email while in the address book.  The group ends up in the 'To:' field.  I do a 'cmd A' to select all and move them to the 'bcc' field.  I put my email address in the 'To' field.  I create the subject line and body text which containes a url and an image with a url link.
    When I press send it immediately moves to my outbox and sits there with no activity showing in the MAIL ACTIVITY preview pane.... I've left it for quite a while thinking it might take a while but nothing changes.
    When I send it to my self only it works.   I've tried taking a smaller group last names A-C 30 recipients and it does the same thing.
    Would appreciate some help if you have had the same problem or maybe know what I've done wrong.  Oh, I've also tried it sending it out on me.com and shaw.ca email accounts...
    Thanks

    If you want to "send an email" to the group, you need to get the group into your email client's Contacts first...
    Select your Group > Select All
    From Address Book.App "Help" (±10 years old)
    *See emphasis below* -
    Importing and exporting vCards
    A vCard, or "virtual address card," is a standard method of exchanging data between applications. Address Book can create and read vCards, so if you have another application that also works with the vCard format, you can import or export addresses as vCards.
    Also, you can send your own card to other people in vCard format. They can use the vCard to add your information to their address books.
    You can also use vCards to add addresses to the Contacts list on your iPod.
    To create a vCard, drag an address card out of the Address Book window.
    To add someone else's vCard to your address book, drag it into the Address Book window.
    To create a single vCard with multiple entries, drag more than one card out of the Address Book window.
    To create multiple vCards at the same time, hold the Option key when dragging multiple cards out of the Address Book window.
    You can also work with vCards using commands in the File menu.
    Address Book also supports Lightweight Directory Interchange Format (LDIF). LDIF is an ASCII file format used to exchange information and enable synchronization of that information between Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers. You can't export information from Address Book in LDIF format; you can only import it. Address Book can import and export vCards.
    To determine the format of a document, select the document and choose File > Get Info. The format, or kind of document, is listed at the top.
    If another application won't accept vCards in the default 3.0 format, try changing the format to 2.1 in the vCard pane of Address Book Preferences, and send the vCard again.

  • Calendar common address book - where is it stored in OID ?

    Just a query about the common address book, where in the OID is it located ?
    cn=CommonAddressBook,cn=Products,cn=oracleContext doesn't contain users address book.
    If I do a uniuser -user -ls -ext -n the result shows the users address book formatted as CAB, yet I can not
    find it stored in OID.
    $ uniuser -user -ls "UID=xxxxxx" -ext -n 1
    + ShowTuesday=TRUE/ShowThursday=TRUE/ABSTATUS=CAB/ALIAS=a1064915/AUTOREFRESH=1/
    [OCS 10.1.something]

    The ldapsearch tools are producing LDIF format (RFC 2849) which requires that non ascii values and values with some specific characters be Base64 encoded.
    XML is out of these formats that start with a special character with regards to LDIF ('<') and for which values must be base64 encoded.
    There are many decoders for base64 encoding.
    Alternately, you can use an LDAP API (C or Java) and the value will not be encoded.

    I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    Set up an additional user account and use one for work and one for personal stuff - each will have a separate address book. Turn on fast user switching for easy switching between the two.

  • How can I return to the Classic address book 3 pane view?

    How can I return to the Classic address book 3 pane view  & get rid of the stupid fake leather and same for iCal?

    I asked the same question at the Apple Genius Bar a week or so ago and they said there was no way to change it.  I am with you - do not like this new format at all and would love it if Apple would offer both -maybe when they do an "fix" next?  This was one change in Lion that should not have been made from Snow Leopard.  I am really sorry I upgraded at this point.

  • Can I transfer/migrate my mail address book from my old G5 OS 10.4.11 to a new Maverick 10.9.4 ?

    Can I transfer/migrate my mail address book from my old G5 OS 10.4.11 to a new Maverick 10.9.4 ?

    Thank you so much! I actually need help transferring my old address book with all my contacts and their e-mail addresses. I had trouble setting up mail so I used my internet provider's webmail to send and receive mail, but that is fixed now.
    If I have to manually enter each contact, I'll do that, but it sure would be nice if there was a way to transfer the address book.
    Thanks again.

  • Why can't I edit or delete Address Book "On My Mac" or sync with iCloud?

    Why can't I edit or delete Address Book cards on my Macs, now that I've migrated to iCloud?  I can edit/delete if I go to iCloud, but the changes don't sync with my Macs.  What's happening, and what's a solution?  Just wait for Apple to fix a bug?

    On your mac, if your look at the left panel of the Address Book, you'll find general categories of "iCloud" and possibly "On my mac" - if you have contacts in the latter, then they are only local to your mac, they are not shared with iCloud.  If you don't have an "iCloud" category, then your mac(s) is not set up of iCloud.  Go to system preferences and look in iCloud.  Is the mac signed into iCloud, are contacts turned on for syncing?
