I need path to the address book, and to internal folders

I had to refresh windows, and subsequently Thunderbird. I am trying to restore my address book and the internal folders such as sent and saved. I have backup but I cant find the files in it.

Address Book and mail files are all stored in your profile. Restore the entire profile from backup, not just individual files.

HT204150 Hi, I made a mistake by allowing facebook to download all my contacts in my address book. Now i need to clean my address book and keep only my original contacts. If i do it on my macbook, will it reflect on my iphone?

Hi, I made a mistake by allowing facebook to download all my contacts in my address book. Now i need to clean my address book and keep only my original contacts. If i do it on my macbook, will it reflect on my iphone? Or will my iphone redownload all the contacts i deleted when i connect it to my macbook or through the cloud?
when working with icloud, is there a primary device (macbok, ipad...) on which if the changes are made, they reflect on all other devices?

I see. If you are syncing contacts with iCloud on both your Mac and your iPhone, deleting a contact from either device will delete them from icloud.com and all other devices.
What's really going on with iCloud is that your contacts actually reside on the iCloud server. Your Mac and iPhone are merely reading the current contact list as it exists on the server. When you delete a contact (or make any other change) on either device, you are making these changes on the server. As a result, all other devices "syncing" contacts with the same iCloud account will read this change. When you log onto icloud.com, you are viewing the server from your browser.

Purpose of the Address Book and the Bookmarks Menu

What is the purpose of the Address Book and the Bookmarks Menu under the show all bookmarks? What is a useful way to use the two? Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
In Address Book, you have the option of entering a web site address in an individual's record. In Safari, by selecting Address Book in System Preferences>Bookmarks, you can access a list of these web addresses via either the Bookmarks Menu or Bookmarks Bar.
Entries in the Bookmarks Menu are one way to enter, sort or access specific bookmarks. My preference is to access my Bookmarks via the Bookmarks Bar. More information can be found via the Safari Help menu (enter Bookmarks in Help's spotlight panel.

Where is the address book and how do I use it?

I am new to Firefox and don't know how to find the address book and use it.

Hi,
Firefox and other browsers are only for displaying web pages and web mails. The emails, address book, contacts etc. are all stored at the mail provider's end and Firefox never stores them, only displays.
If this is related to Thunderbird please [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Help_Documentation:Using_the_Address_Book see this,] and the [http://support.mozillamessaging.com/ Thunderbird forum.]

A few months ago, my G5 started up with the address book and mail opened at startup. They are not in startup items, and I cannot get this to stop. Any suggestions?

A few months ago, my power mac G5 began starting up with the address book and mail already open on the desk top.
Neither of these is in my startup items, so I am at a loss as to stop this behavior.
Any suggestions?

Are they in Login items under System Preferences/Users/Login Items?
In the Dock, right click the Address Book and Mail icons, select Options, and make sure "Open at Login" is not selected.

Need help with Mail address book and calendar.

Hello,
I am a new Mac User. I just purchased my first MacBook. My goal is to switch totally over to Mac for both home and work. I was able to get the mail program to pull down my exchange mail, however it does not appear to have taken in my address book.
My goal would be for my machine to totally sync up with my mail, and calendar the same way that my iPhone does. Is there a way to do this?
If I can't get my contacts and calendar to "sync". I will not be able to use my Mac at work.
Any help or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Jason

I do not believe you can sync your data between Outlook and Address Book and iCal. You can transfer data using a third-party utility, Outlook2Mac. However, you could integrate with your Outlook account using Entourage, one of the Office 2008 applications. You would have to purchase Microsoft Office 2008.

I have updated my 3Gs to the latest ios version , during the process something went wronge and itunes restored my phone without back up. Due to that I lost all my data including the address book and the most important thing is my photos and videos. please

i have tries almost every thing on the web and recomended by google and friends. please help

Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

My motherboard blew up and I have the hard drive. How do I copy the address book to a new installation on a new computer from the old hard drive?

I have the old hard drive in a USB case and connected to the new computer. I have firefox installed and need to have the address book (critical) copied over and inserted to be the address book information on the new computer. I am hoping there is a file that I can overwrite easily?

Are you talking about emails?
Because the list of emails is saved in email provider

Is there a link between the Calendar and the Address Book

I wanted to know if there is a way that if you are setting up an appointment in the Calendar that you are able to place a contact name from the address book and link that information with the scheduled appointment?
Thanks
John

Not within the native RIM OS, no.
But I use an application called RexConnect which will perform that function--and many others, such as allowing an email to be inserted into a calendar event or task--or vice versa.

How to sync and let the address book data overtake everything on my phone?

Hi everyone!
I have a Sony Ericsson k750i.
I have no problems whatsoever syncing when I first got my phone etc.
In all my address book entries, I have updated all of my numbers to have the international dialling code before each of the numbers. I now want to sync with my phone again to ensure that all the numbers in my phone now have the new numbers that are entered on address book.
How can I use iSync to ensure my phone only takes what is in my address book and my address book basically ignores the data from my phone?
I hope this makes sense!!
Thanks in advance!
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

If you want to overwrite the data representing contacts and calendars on you mobile handset with data from the Address Book and iCal, you should reinitialize the truth database by either…
• removing, then adding back [and reconfiguring] your device, or
• opening the iSync Preferences… dialog, and selecting the Reset Sync History… option.
Neither step will affect your data store, but it will compel the Sync Services framework to behave as if it were a first-time synchronization, and give you the opportunity to Replace or Merge the data with your handset. You should choose Replace.

I want to replace address book and keychain and safari with the info from my old system.

In the old days of Leopard and Snow Leopard, replacing your address book with one from another computer or another user was quite easy. Likewise with Safari and Keychain, but now with Lion I can't see how to do it.

Do you still have the old system running?
Then you can export your old Address Book as archiv
Address Book -> Export -> Address Book Archive
Transfer this archive file to the new computer, delete all adresses in the address Book and import your archive.
Your Safari Bookmarks can also be exported
Safari -> File -> Export Bookmaks
and reimported on the new System.

How do I delete contacts from the address book?

Purchased a new MacBook Pro and iphone4 yesterday. The phone has several hundred contacts that I no longer need. How do I deleted the contacts that I don't need anylonger from the address book on my MacBook? There are still several hundred that I need to keep. I don't see an easy way to delete them on the computor. I can't imagine that I'd have to go through one by one on my iphone.........seriously?

On the MBpro, click on the card to delete or mark several in a row by holding Shift down/up arrow. Then hit the delete key on the keyboard.

Need to reset/reinstall address book (Contacts)

The first thing I did was made a backup copy of the address book to look at the format. I could not read it with a text editor
I importing a cvs file that contain over one hundred email addresses, but I didn't notice that the email address was not selected for import. I imported the entire file.
Rather than selecting one at time, I selected all of the entries in the address book and deleted them. I was successful all of my errors went away. I reloaded the database from the backup copy of the address book. I have tried muliple times, with and without a reboot.
The entries appear for a moment and then disappear every time.
Questions
How can I recover from this error?
Is there some file that needs to be delete?
If so where is the file located?
Is it a cloud problem?
Thank you!

I had to change my user name from Ebht to MrEbht. I tried you advise and it still empties out the address book. I can still manual add account, but what fun is that. I have over a hundred address to enter. I really would love to know how the software, remembers what I have deleted. Is there a way to reinstall just that program and erase it's memory?

How to synchronize Address Books and Calendar Books in Mavericks 10.9.2, I am unable to synchronize my Address and Calendar Books informations with my iPhone 4 via iTunes

Since I updated my MacBook Pro's OS X version 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2, I am unable to synchronize my Address and Calendar Books informations with my iPhone 4 via iTunes. What do I need to do to update these data ?

I cannot synchronize the Address Book and Calendar data, even by means of iCloud or similar servers. It appears these data are not selected automatically during synchronization. How can one select Address Book and Calendar Book in Mavericks for synchronization ?

I force quitted my address book and everything in it disappeared. Help!

It was not backed up and I had hundreds of customer email addresses in there. A major loss. I would be very grateful for any help.
There is nothing in the address book and nothing comes up when I type in names in the the 'To' column.

Hello, and also welcome to the Discussions.
To supplement Austin's excellent response, in the Finder, open Home/Library/Application Support and look for a folder named AddressBook -- do you find it? Within are other folders and files, including AddressBook.data, AddressBook.data.beforesave and AddressBook.data.previous.
One of the latter two, should contain what you need, if the first one in incomplete, or newly created. Delete AddressBook.data, and rename a copy of one of the latter two, to be simply the same name.
In the application AB, the same could result from File/Revert to Addressbook Backup, but save a copy of the AddressBook folder before trying.
