I want a seperate address book for contacts, and another contact list for the phone. Anyone?

Just got an iphone (yay!) and the icloud sync-ed my contact list form my first generation ipad. Hoever, I do not want this info in the contact list the phone accesses (2 different lists). Is there a way to keep them seperate? With the latest operating system (installed this morning) I can't see the contacts I manually entered into the phone unless I download from the cloud (which has EVERY contact in it-not just the manually entered conrtacts). Surely there must be ways to create groups, or different phone/contact lists to access?

till now i don't think thunderbird has multiple address books. but u can try rd party app but still i don't recommend this. If i 'll get any info about this i will definately tell you. sorry but if it won't helps.

  • How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

    How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
    Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
    As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
    With regard to font size,
    1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
    2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
    3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
    4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
    5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
    Can any of you Help?!?

    Maybe this extension helps:

  • Using address book to manage and sync contacts

    Hi All -
    I am looking for a solution that will allow me to divide my contacts (in address book) into two (for now) categories 1 that would be a list of all contacts, and a second list would be those that I want to sync to my iPhone. Basically I have a large contact file (2500 contacts) and I don't need them all on my iphone on a daily basis.
    Is there a way to sort, divide or separate my contacts and then only sync a subset of my contacts to the phone? I can put them into groups in address book, but then they still all sync... so I'm at a loss here, and any help would be great, thanks...

    Create the groups that you need in address book (you can be helped a little by using smart groups, especially with 2500 contacts!)
    Now, in itunes, plug in your iphone, and click on it within itunes. You should now have several tabs appear. Click on info: You should now see all the groups that you've created under +address book+ and should now be able to select / deselect the groups that you need
    Hope that this helps

  • Address Book Mail.app and FaceTime contacts problem

    Hi to everyone. I really want some  help hear. My mail.app on MacBook Pro 2011 don't recognises the most of my contacts email as a result not showing me my contact picture and first/last name when they send me something. Gives me the choise to create a new contact but the funny is that i already have the mail in my address book.
    In the facetime happening the same thing when someone calls me via his phone number. I just see the phone number and not the contacs name. When he calls me via email i can see him as my contact. For FaceTime i figured out that when i put the area code on my contacts phone number it's fine. I just want to know if all of you have in your contact's phones there area codes or is a bug on my system and isn't neccessary.
    Thanks.

    Mail.app recognizes their email address from Address Book.app and substitutes their names in place of the email address.
    No, it doesn't. An email address field can contain a proper name which will be displayed if included; neither Mail nor Address Book substitute anything. If an email address does not contain a proper name, the only thing that will be displayed is the email address itself.
    I would like to know how to get a more uniform look in my inbox. I've included a screenshot of Mail.app, but the domains of the emails are hidden for obvious reasons.
    You can't, unless you can force everyone who might send you an email to include their name as part of the email address; good luck with that. Your link to a screenshot gives only a blank page, there is no image there.

  • Address Book crashed unexpectedly, and my contacts disappeared

  • Can't find IPhone app for Calendar view when you turn on the phone - anyone

    I read about (can't remember where) an Iphone app that allows you to choose your calendar view as the thing you see when the phone is turned on before you slide the arrow to the right to open everything up; meaning, you can just press the top button or the bottom screen button and immediately see your calendar. Does anyone know what this app is called? I can't find it anywhere! Thanks!

    The Health app is a default app and cannot be deleted. Search for the Health app by touching the screen and sliding your finger down to reveal Spotlight search. Type in Health and the Health app should come up. That means its on your iPhone somewhere.

  • Using airport express for itunes and another wireless network for internet

    Is there any way i can use my airport express just for playin music through airtunes, and log onto the internet using a different wireless network?

    Hello bleno567. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Is there any way i can use my airport express just for playin music through airtunes, and log onto the internet using a different wireless network?
    Yes, you just need to configure the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), that will be used to stream iTunes, as a wireless client.

  • I have 2 iPhones. When I have synced them to my pc the same contacts have come in each of the phones despite having 2 separate yahoo email accounts

    I don't know why this has happened but as a result I have all my wife contacts and she has mine

    One of the phones can keep the current account; on the one that will be moving to a new account go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone.  (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.)  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The other phone will not be effected by this.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account on this phone using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.  At this point you will have two different iCloud accounts, one for each phone, with identical data on them.
    You will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the merged data (such as deleting the other phone's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

  • How can I put a contact in two or more Address Books without making a 'new contact' for each?

    I would like to put several of my contacts in more than one Address Book; but, if I move them (drag'n'drop) from one they no longer remain in the original Book...which I want. I'd like to segregate different interest groups and file them in separate Address Books, but many of my contacts fit in several Address Book identities. Any solution to keep from having to make whole new contact addresses for existing contacts? Thanks for any help you might offer..... NJR

    If I want to copy a contactl to another address-book I simly hold down the ctrl-key when I drag and drop

  • Address Book won't sync with contacts on mobile.me anymore

    I have a iMac 5,1 with MacOSX 10.6.4, mobile.me and an iPhone (4.0.2). For many, many years I have had Address Book which quite happily was in sync with the more recently acquired Contacts in Mobile.me. But now, my Address Book isn't syncing with Contacts. And the Contacts on my mobile phone syncs with the Contacts in mobile.me rather than with Address Book. I've tried all sorts of combinations of syncing to no avail. Can anyone please tell me how to ensure that Address Book syncs with Contacts in mobile.me and I would want Address Book to overwrite Contacts. The huge ongoing number of duplicates is another problem but there are many threads I can see that will help me solve that problem.
    Thanks

    I am having this problem, too. Gmail is my mothership, all the contacts and groups are hosted there, I just want to pull it down to my iMac and my MacBook.
    The process seems to work fine on the iMac, but I sync an iPod to that Mac almost every day. I do not sync a device to the MacBook, and it does not get Address Book updates. I feel strongly that the mobile device plays a role in the sync. I will try to sync an iPod to the MacBook, and see what happens. This is a valid test, but I am not willing to erase my iPod every other day just to keep my Address Book up to date on my laptop. This should work better.
    I wish there was a tool for contacts like Calaboration. Calaboration makes my iCal sync both ways to Google, and works breath-takingly well.

  • New MAC OSX Address Book Groups Do Not Appear in iTunes for iPhone Sync?

    New Groups (and their associated new contacts) created in the MAC OSX Address Book since the initial installation of my iPhone do not appear in iTunes, and hence do not sync with iPhone. I have tried the Advanced - Replace information on this iPhone - Contacts to no avail.

    I had this problem for several weeks now!
    I followed your procedure and - addresses there, calender gone! Even worse!
    So I copied the old SyncServices Folder back into /Library/Application Support/
    result as expected, calender there, addresses gone.
    My lady called, I was on the phone for 10 minutes or so. Coming back to my iMac I see a Sync-Problem-Icon jumping in the dock. I've been told that one of my addresses has a conflict between adressbook and iPhone. OK. Solve it with adressbook, please.
    I open iTunes and everything is there, calender data and adresses!
    Finally!
    Thank you, Maurizio!

  • Sync address book 6.1.3 with contacts 7.1

    Macbook Pro hard drive crashed again - am on 3rd hard drive in less than 36 months. In configuring new hard drive, find that Address Book 6.1.3 will not operate on the new updated software (no, I did not request updated software - it is what was provided with new hard drive). So, Contacts 7.1 appears to be the new place for my contacts. I need to transfer info. But how?

    How do I downgrade to address book,
    You don't unless you downgrade the entire OS.
    someone explain to me the difference between the two?
    7.1 is the new version.  Play around with it and discover the differences.

  • Don't want to sync Address Book "Note:" field

    Does anyone know how customize the syncing of Contacts from Address Book so that everything but the "Note:" field is synced?
    FYI, I'm syncing to a Palm Treo 700p (Verizon Wireless).
    Power Mac G5 Dual 2.5GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    It's not possible to change the conduit field content and label mapping in the iSync Palm Conduit to include additional fields or exclude the Note: field. There is no provision to turn include or exclude data globally, or on a record by record basis.
    While you still do not get all of those options with the Missing Sync for Palm OS with the Mark/Space Contacts conduit, you get far better support for categories and groups, contact photographs or icons, additional address fields, a URL and IM address, and more telephone numbers and electronic mail addresses:

  • Address Book changing fields on duplicate contacts ?

    My Address Book is duplicating contacts, BUT mixing the fields.
    Original contac: last-name = "Rosales A", first-name = "Eduardo". No middle-name used.
    I get a second contact with: last-name = "A", first-name = "Eduardo". No middle-name apears.
    Then yet another with: last-name = "A", middle-name = "Eduardo" and first-name = "Rosales".
    Forget about physical addresses that will by magic put a "country" when there was none defined.
    Forget also that it (Address Book) is adding pictures to contacts, I don't want to, some correct (when asked to some friends) but some incorrect (a friends photo on a Company contact with no relation).
    I'm aware of using iCloud and "on My Mac", will duplicate info, this is already taken care of.
    It all started when I was using and syncing ONE MacBook and ONE iPhone. By magic, I did not change anything.
    Now I'm using iCloud, Lion on the MacBook, iOS 5.0 on the iPhone-4 and the iPad-2.
    Now, if I delete one instance of a contact, say on the iPhone, it will disapeare on the MacBook.
    BUT tomorrow, during a "sync over the air", again the "A" last-name will show up.
    Best regards,
    Eduardo Rosales.

    If you are going to reactivate synchronization, then do this first:
    • launch iSync
    • open the Preferences… dialog
    • press the Reset Sync History… button
    This will leave your sync clients registered and your data intact, but remove any indication that you have ever synchronized before, clearing the truth database and triggering an initial slow synchronization once you re-enable to process and initiate your next event.
    Read this document to gain a clearer understanding of how the framework operates:
