I have been forced to join Qwest email. Is there a way I can get back to mail? If not, how can I import my address book to Qwest?

It sounds like you use Quest as your ISP, or whoever you have as your ISP is being taken over by Quest. If this is the case it is possible that your email server is being transitioned to Quest and you will need to change your email address and server settings.
I am only speculating since I do not have enough information. I suggest calling your ISP or Quest and ask their help desk about this.

I lost my address book when I installed Mountain Lion and have not been able to recover it. WHen I type in a name in an email the address shows up, so I know it is in there. How can I restore my address book?

I don't know how to do this. I typed the question in the bar above, but apparently need to type it again here. I lost my entire address book when I installed Mountain Lion and have been unable to recover it. I know the information is in there as when I type in someone's name in an email the address always shows up right away. How can I find the information for my contacts and restore my address book? Do I need to go to the Apple Store that is 2 hours away and have an expert help me or can I find out how to do it online for free myself?

The auto-complete in Mail addresses comes from two sources: (1) The "Previous Recipients" list, which can be viewed via Mail > Window > Previous Recipients. (2) Your Address Book (now called "Contacts").
If you did in fact lose your Address Book - are you sure you don't have "Contacts" in your Applications Folder? - It sounds like you are getting addresses from source (1). If you did in fact lose your Address Book (now called "Contacts" !!), you will have to restore it from a backup.

I have downloaded a Audio Book from Itunes Store, but rencently i have had to reinstall windows, is there any way to re-download the audio book from Itunes, i know that the audio books are one time downloads, but is there any way to get the audio book

I have downloaded a Audio Book from Itunes Store, but rencently i have had to reinstall windows, is there any way to re-download the audio book from Itunes, i know that the audio books are one time downloads, but is there any way to get the audio book back as i have already paid for it once and i would not like to pay for it twice.

If you haven't got a backup copy and if it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download (there is no guarantee that they will) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

only way is to restore the phone as new. OR wait until IOS 7 comes out in the fall.

Hi,
Try installing Windows 2012 Live Essentials here.
You will have to set up your Pop 3 or IMAP email account after installing the updated version per above.
Are you using an Internet Service Provider Email account or a cloud based (IMAP) Email account?
Pop 3 accounts will require incoming and outgoing server addresses and any additional security settings required by your ISP. If you don't have the required settings for Pop 3 you will have to contact your ISP for those.

Is there a way to migrate or copy contents of my Address Book from an older Mac running OS10.4.11 to a new Mac running 10.10.2? Migration Assistant in Yosemite says it doesn't support Address Book 10.4.11.

Cool!! You're welcome - but BDAqua (there's that name again!) deserves the credit (although I knew it too)
So much for a Mac's claim of 'continuity' and 'ease of use' huh?

I have many contacts in address book from a certain company that just changed its name. Is there a way to globally change all the contacts to the new company name all at once?

Although clunky as you say, this sounds like a reasonably efficient way to accomplish what I was seeking.
Address Book has no global find/replace. Bob Grove suggested one possible workaround; however, a grep-capable text editor (eg, TextWrangler) is better than TextEdit if complex strings are involved.
An alternative is Bento (which is designed specifically to interact with the AB database), but it's not free.

Downgrading of iOS is not supported by Apple.
However, See these steps for troubleshooting battery or charging issues.

Is there a Way to create 2 separate address books?

Perhaps this is an easy question but I am relatively new to Macs. I was wondering if there is a way to create 2 separate address books under the same user profile? I have a palm device and a cell phone and i would like to create a separate book just for isyncing with the cell phone since my phone only holds 500 contacts and the palm holds more. I don't need every palm number on the cell. The only way I can see is to create a separate user profile on the iMac. Any other ideas? Thanks in advance for your help.
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

You don't have to include every contact in Address Book in the sync - you can choose to sync just a group. So make two groups, one for the palm and one for the mobile phone. A contact can belong to multiple groups. I THINK (you will have to check yourself) you can have different settings in iSync for the different devices, so just associate each group with the appropriate device.
One thing to watch out for - if the synchronising process finds a new contact on one of the remote devices, it will make new contact for it in AB, but it won't add it to the group, so you'll have to do that manually.

Is there a way to remove Exchange global address list from phone/Mail app?

I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.3. Wondering if there is a way I can prevent an Exchange global address list from loading when I compose a message. I am only syncing Mail - not contacts or calendars. Also tried dropping and re-adding account to see if that did anything. This is a personal phone connected to company's Exchange account (legitimately) - I would like to reduce the chance that I incorrectly email a company employee from my personal account when composing a message.

That is what I expected Chris, but to answer your question - yes. I have two accounts setup with the Mail app - Gmail and Exchange. Gmail is the default even. When I am in the Gmail account, compose a new message, just typing "john" for example, brings up most recently used john's first, then all the Johns in my company. I really would prefer not to even have those names populate. Not sure if that can be prevented without dropping the Exchange mail account altogether. That is my question - and thank you for your reply.

I got a new itunes account through my iphone but i still have all my music on my iphone but when i go to itunes its not there anymore, how do i get all my music from my phone to my computer??

i just got a new itunes acount because my other one wasnt working and it was fine i still had all my music on my phone, but then i had to restart my whole laptop back to the way it was when i first bought it because it was so slow, so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there. how do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop

I would not suggest starting anew AppleID as you will have problems with previous purchases.

How doesn't it work?
so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there.
Because it is part of your old AppleID (and your library does not just magically appear).
Did you make a backup of your HD?
jhow do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop
Authorize your computer for your old AppleID then File > Devices, select your device then Transfer purchases.
I highly suggest you sort out the issue with your old AppleID and continue to use that. Remove your personal info from the new AppleID and don't use it.

Is there a way to use Apple Mail/Address Book/Calendar with a Microsoft Exchange Server that requires a client certificate ?

I have an Exchange server configured to require a client certificate. Is there a way to configure a certificate for Apple Mail/Address Book/Calendar ? There seems to be no option in the account settings to do that (in contrast to for example the IMAP settings).
Any help highly appreciated !

I don't know. Try downloading the certificate and installing it in your keychain. See what happens.

Help! Is there anyway to get address book from one pearl to another without desktop software?

The place you plug in the charger (and also the cord to attach it to the desktop software) is broken. T-mobile sent me a new phone and I bought a pod charger for power, but I have 500 contacts in my phone with emails, faxes, addresses etc that I would like to have on my new phone. I don't want to have to manually copy them from my old phone and put into my new phone. Is there any way any of you can think of to get my address book into my new phone. T-mobile tech suppport couldn't think of a way. The guy at the store tried to send it bluetooth but failed also. Did he do it wrong or can you do it that way?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, you should be able to transfer your address book by bluetooth as long as you have power to your old phone.
Go to Applications, Options, Bluetooth, hit your menu button, enable bluetooth, click menu again, add device, (your old phone should be near it), once the device is added, click the menu again and click transfer address book.
Good luck
