Import addresses from Address Book to Word documents - Possible?

I've searched discussions, manuals and the lot, but I can find no definitive to question - 'can I use my Address Book addresses to merge into Word letters?'
If so, how?
Or do I have to retype them all into an Excel sheet or Outlook?
Help please!

  • Importing folders from Address Book

    Hi all,
    I'm new to iPod and am wondering if there is a way to import folders from Address Book. At the moment I've got a long list of names in alphabetical order (some duplicated because they exist in more than one folder).
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    You might want to ask for further suggestions in the Mac OS X 10.5 forum, then. Someone there might know how to get the database from Address Book 5 into AB4, if it's even possible.
    Regards.

  • How do I import addresses from Address Book Ver 4.1.2 to the Lion Address Book version 7.0? Mountain Lion will not allow me to open Address book Version 4.1.2

    How do I import addresses from Address Book Ver 4.1.2 to the Lion Address Book version 7.0? Mountain Lion will not allow me to open Address book Version 4.1.2

    Do you have any addresses in the Lion version?
    If not, copy the AddressBook folder from your username/Library/Application Support/ folder on the old mac (or backup).
    Copy it to the same location on your new Mac, replacing the one that is there. Start Address Book in Mountain Lion and it should convert the files to the correct format.
    If you do have addresses, it is a little more complicated.
    First, create a Contacts Archive (from File>Export menu). This will be your backup.
    Next, export the current contacts as vCards.
    Then, follow the steps above.
    Then, import all the cards you exported. If you select all and double-click, it will ask if you want to add them. You'll then have to add them to whatever groups you had set up.

  • Creating a drop down to add customer address from Address book in numbers 0

    Hi fellow Mac people,
    I have a numbers invoice created and want to be able to add my customers addresses from address book using a drop down menu or just have it retrieve the info from address book
    Anyone know how to do this
    Any help would be great
    Thanks
    Rob

    You can drag an entry from the address book into a table in a Numbers document. Numbers does not have a way to do add contact information via a drop down menu. The table you drag the contact(s) into should have column headings for each item you want (name, address, phone, etc) as explained in the User's Manual.
    What you could do is create a table for all of your customer contact information. Every customer would be in the table. You could use then one of the LOOKUP functions or a popup menu to chose a particular contact from the table and transfer it to where you want it (such as on an invoice or an estimate or whatever other tables you have in your document).

  • Mail and addresses from Address Book

    When I type an e-mail address in the "To" field of a new message, Mail recovers the full name from Address Book and adds it to the e-mail address. Sometimes I don't want this to happen, instead I want to enter just the plain e-mail address. I know I can edit the address in the "To" field, but I have to enter some character(s) to override the default, otherwise if I just remove the name the system puts back the full name from Address Book. Is there a possibility to get just the e-mail address from Address Book but not the full name of that person? Sometimes I use nicknames, or mnemonic characters instead of real names and I don't want these to be seen by the recipient.

    I like the idea of Mail retrieving the email addresses from Address Book, but what I don't like is that it also retrieves "Last" and"First" names, and that it does not allow me to remove them from the "To" field when composing the message. Imagine that I have an entry in my Address Book such as "JOHN (THE FAT) DOE", Or "MARY (THE BLOND) DOE". Obviously, I do not want the recipients to know that I call them "the fat John", or "the blond Mary". Or, that I am sending a message to several people, and for confidentiality reasons I do not want them to know the names of the others. In other words, I want to retrieve email addresses from Address Book but NOT the real name of that person, or at least have the possibility to remove Last and First Names from the "To" field and show only the email address.
    Thanks, and regards.

  • Drag and dropping an address from address book to the desktop, the address file does not go where my mouse is positioned.

    If I drag and drop an address from address book to the desktop, the address file does not go where my mouse is positioned. It winds up somewhere in the middle of my screen. Any way to have the address file land and stay where my mouse pointer is?

    You have to assign the favicon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click the shortcut: Properties) after you have dragged the link to the desktop.
    You can usually find the favicon in Tools >Page Info > Media and save the icon there.
    Otherwise use the main domain of the website and add favicon.ico (e.g. mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder.

    Mike,
    Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
    I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer.  Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected.  It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

  • Email address from address book on E72 and removin...

    Hi,
    I like my E72 but I have two problems that really annoy me.
    1. In the past when ever I would write a new email I would get list of suggested email addresses in the "To" field. For example, if I would was to write the letter S I would get the email address of the people in my address book whose name starts with an S (sam, Sofia etc).
    for some reason this feature stopped working on my phone and I can't find how to make it work again. if I want to send an email I need to manually write the email address in the "To" field.
    The auto suggestion feature works perfectly on my wife's phone (an E72 with the same firmware – 22.007) but on my phone it won't suggest email addresses from my contacts.
    2. Another problem is that my Gmail that is synced to the phone, through the Nokia Messenger server is locked on "hide emails older than 2 weeks". Now, I have hundreds of emails stored on my phone that dates to February 1st – the day I got the Phone!
    Is there a way to delete these emails automatically, without deleting them on the Gmail account itself? It makes my phone really when going through the emails.
    Thanks in advance,
    External

    Hullo all...
    I've fixed the problem with my email service on E72. The thing is, there's something wrong with the Nokia Messaging service. So I turned the service off. But you must remove the inbox properly, that is from the web site email/nokia.com, and manage your inbox from there and not from your cell phone.
    Remove it, and make a new settings on your E72 for your preferable mailbox. When they asked you about to accept or decline the Nokia Messaging service, declined it, and set your mailbox without using Nokia Messaging. Yes the e-mail doesn't instantly sent to your inbox, but you can set the timing to always enabled synchronization, and set it to every 5 minutes. It will delivered flawlessly to your E72, and you'll get a full control for your inbox and everything without being 'locked' by nokia messaging. You can decide how much email you'd like exactly in your inbox, sent, etc. You can decide the period and everything. The device are fully functional and do very well job in maintaining email, but not Nokia Messaging. (Nokia Messaging Team, please take a serious action.)
    This step will also fix your problem on email address from address book on E72. I don't really know what the connection between them, but it seems that it needs to connect to the internet to make this feature enabled. (it's kind of strange since the email in the address book is in the phone memory, not in the 'cloud' server). It sometimes happen if you don't have the internet connection, but once you had it, the problem solved.
    I hope this will fix your problem. Let me know

  • IMPORT/EXPORT FROM ADDRESS BOOK TO ENTOURAGE

    Is there a way to export/import contacts from the Address Book to Entourage? Thanks

    Try this.
    With the Address Book and Entourage launched and positioned so each is partially visible and the Entourage Address Book selected, select a contact in the Address Book "All" Group and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All. Click and drag the highlighted contacts from the Address Book to the Entourage Address Book window which should copy the Address Book contacts to the Entourage Address Book.
    You can do the same with selected contacts only if you don't want to export all.
