HT2486 Is there a way to save business cards in address book, by scanning or the camera on the iMac.

Hi All,
            at times we feel that the business card sent by the client or friend is also necessary for future. is there any way we could save the jpeg of the card by a click onto the address book in the mac.
            It would be cool if we could make some use of the camera in the front to take a snap shot of the bc.
Regards
Beck

I appreciate the link but wasnt really looking to go through a 100+ page iphone guide.  From what I saw, it said what other people have told me - which is it will sync contacts from Google (Gmail) or Yahoo...so that doesnt mean it will sync contacts directly from an Android phone's contact list.  All the manual said was you sync thru itunes.
It looks like what I should do at some point is manually input all my contacts into a new "clean and unused" Gmail account...Unless there was an easy way to transfer my Mac Address Book to a Gmail Account.
It seems like if you have contacts in a Gmail account, it will be easy to transfer anywhere.
Im starting to wonder if an Android would be bette than an iphone anyway.  Considering the nightmare time Ive had with a Mac in just a few months, Im surprised Im even still considering another Apple product.
Thanks

    Photoshop only has one Color Palette.  If you could script something  like a Color Palette with  two sets of active sliders the script would be in control till you dismissed its sliders dialog.  You would not be able to do anything but adjust the script's sliders in Photoshop while the script dialog window is being displayed.  Photoshop Scripting does not have real palette dialog type support.
    I do not know what is possible with Photoshop extensions using HTML 5 Panels.....

    Is there a way to import my yahoo mail address book?

    AddressBook shouldn't have any problem with the vCard format - which Yahoo can export to... In fact, I've done this before.
    On the Yahoo AddressBook page, click the link for 'Import/Export'
    On the next page, in the export section, choose 'vCard single file'
    Then in AddressBook, you can simply drag the vCard to the window or go to File>Import>vCards...

  • I bought an iphone 4. I have a MacBook Core Duo running 10.4. My husband has a Core Duo 2 running 10.5.8. Is there a way to move my ical and address book info. to his computer so I can sync with my new iphone?

    I bought an iphone 4. I have a MacBook Core Duo running 10.4. My husband has a Core Duo 2 running 10.5.8. Is there a way to move my ical and address book info. to his computer so I can sync with my new iphone without upgrading software.

    Hello hbell,
    is there any reason that you do not want
    to upgrade to v10.5.? Suggest you call
    1-800-275-2273 Apple Support. Automated call
    yet if you call back you can get in touch with an
    Apple Software Specialist. They may be able to ship
    you Leopard so that you can synch your new iPhone
    to you own computer. Have the serial numbers of your
    Mac and iPhone written down and ready for them.
    As far as transferring data to your husbands MacBook
    so that you can sync your iPhone on it I am really not
    sure. Seems like a lot of trouble to get your data onto
    your iPhone.
    Good Luck,
    A

    Is there a way to transfer my Comcast email adress book to my iPhone 4s?

    If Comcast does not provide an option to sync your Comcast online contacts with an address book app on your computer, they should provide an option for exporting the contacts to be imported by an address book app on your computer that supports syncing contacts with the iPhone.

  • Is there a way to save history permanently in firefox even if someone clear the history? or can I retrieve my all history again?

    I want to save my history permanently in Mozilla, and if someone clear the history, is there a way to retrieve it again?

    Bookmarks and browsing history are stored by firefox in this file the you can try in the [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]] :
    bookmarks.html (Firefox 2) - Bookmarks
    history.dat (Firefox 2) - Browsing history of previously visited websites
    places.sqlite (Firefox 3) - Bookmarks and browsing history. Note that Firefox 3 stores both bookmarks and browsing history in the places.sqlite file.
    You can alternately import a bookmarks HTML file if you wish to add those bookmarks to your current Firefox bookmarks. In Firefox 3, you can also use the Firefox Library "Restore" feature to replace your current bookmarks with a bookmark backup file (such as a dated JSON backup from the bookmarkbackups folder of another Firefox 3 profile) but this will not transfer your browsing history.

  • Is there a way to transfer contacts from Mac Address Book to an iPhone?

    I tried posting this before but no one answered.  I dont currently have an iphone (or any smartphone).  I do have a Mac and I have my contacts in the Mac Address Book (not in an email client like Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail)
    I want to know if I get an iphone is there an easy way to transfer contacts (names, addresses, emails etc) and especially HOME/WORK/CELL Phone numbers from the Address Book on the Macbook Pro to the iphone.... 
    I would think there's a way to do that since both the Mac and the iphone are Apple products....but no one has been able to give me a straight answer on this...except to transfer contacts from Gmail but my contacts are not in Gmail
    So if I get an iphone (or probably any phone) do I have to manually enter all my contacts each time?  I thought that it would be easier with an iphone than an Android or other smartphone.

    I appreciate the link but wasnt really looking to go through a 100+ page iphone guide.  From what I saw, it said what other people have told me - which is it will sync contacts from Google (Gmail) or Yahoo...so that doesnt mean it will sync contacts directly from an Android phone's contact list.  All the manual said was you sync thru itunes.

  • Is there a way to add an image to Address Book notes?

    I've tried copying an image from the clipboard and then pasting it into Address Book notes.  I've also tried moving the image in different formats, TIFF, JPG, PNG, directly to the notes section of Address Book, but still with no success.  Is there some other way to make this happen?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    This isn't possible in Address Book on 10.7.
    You can send a message to Apple here :
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    And, maybe, they will add that feature in a next update; it could be an interesting improvement by the way.

  • Multiple contacts in one business card in Address book

    Does anyone know if it is possible to add more then one contact into the same card. I have business contacts where sometimes I have two reps I work with. It would be great to have them on the same business card in the Addy book.
    Any ideas.

    You may need to use Add Field in Preferences/Templates to turn it on for new cards, or Card/Add Field for individual cards. Once on it can have label values such as "Friend" "Father" "Assistant" etc, or of course you can set your own. You put a name in the value portion of the field; subsequently clicking on the label allows opening of the card with the related name. You can have multiple related names on a contact card.
    Unfortunately you can't set up the link automatically; it would be nice if you could drop one card on another and it would prompt you for which related field label to use.
    You could for example have a master card for some company that you do business with, and on that card put links to the various people within the company.

  • HT204053 Hi I've just purchased a iMac which is great, my problem is that I've a apple id account and also my wife has one, is there any way we can have two accounts i.e. separate accounts on the iMac with individual iTunes accounts, appreciate help pleas

    Hi ive just purchased an IMac and encountered an issue i didnt think of put hopefully someone can help? Ive a apple account and also the wife both with seperate itunes accounts etc. Is it possible to have two profiles with seperate accounts on our system, appreciate any help..

    I believe you can accomplish this by setting up separate user profiles for each of you on your Mac (System Preferences>Users & Groups (click the lock symbol if locked and provide the administrator name and password, then click the "+").  That should allow you to sign into separate iCloud accounts and maintain separate iTunes libraries within your respective user accounts.

  • Is there a way to save a photo I found on the Internet to my photos on my iPad mini? It only lets me save to my homepage, which I don't want to do. Please help!

    Is there a way to save a photo I found on the Internet to my camera roll photos? Here is my dilemma, I control a company's Facebook page and like posting cool photos, however because the business is just one of my pages I cannot simply post it to Facebook. On my laptop I normally do save as and choose from photos to upload, but it seems as though I cannot do that on my iPad mini.
    I am also a brand new apple user.

    To save an image while in a browser like Safari tap and hold on the image until a Save Image choice appears. Tapping on Save Image will put the image in your Camera Roll.
