Increasing size of the display view of address book

Can the display of address book be increased in size? Or can the display of the fonts be increased in size? It is hard for me to see.

Andrea,
It seems to me that there is no way to do this across the board. Seems like there should be, however.
There is a way to temporarily increase the size of a phone number so you can see it more easily when dialing. In the listings for the contact you are interested in, click on the label (mobile, home, etc) to the left of the phone number and then choose large type. This will display the phone number in VERY LARGE type. To revert to normal, just click on the big number.
This is certainly not a solution to your problem. I'm surprised that there is no apparent font adjustment in Address Book.
Regards,
Steve M.

  • I would like to change the display way of address book.

    Hello~
    I purchased Blackberry Q10 and have a question.
    I would like to change the display way of address book.
    Now BB Q10's address book show contact's name by "First Name -> Last Name" (Tarou<First Name> Yamada<Last Name>
    But I prefer "Last Name->First Name" ( Yamada Tarou)
    Because My native language is Japanese...
    When I using Black Berry Bold 9900, I could change this setting by below way...
    Options -> Typing and Language -> Language -> Global Name Display (Change to "Last,First")
    But I can't find this option in my Black Berry Q10.
    Could you let me know how to change this setting?

    Hello yshr_825 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for your question on sorting contacts by name.
    Launch Contacts and swipe down from the top of the Bezel and select Settings. In the tab Sort Contacts By tap on it and select Last Name.
    This should now update your contact list to sort them by surname.
    Let us know if this helps.

  • How do I get the groups in my address book to my contact lists in Mail

    The groups in my address book are displayed in my contacts list in Mail

    Hi. I honestly am not sure how I transferred it (I am dealing with several issues in getting the new iMac set up right now) . . . I think I exported from one and imported to the other. Maybe that is why the notes did not come over even though the contacts did. But I tried your method and it seemed to work so thatnk you very much!

  • The search feature in Address Book no longer works

    I have over 2,400 contacts. For no apparent reason the search feature in my Apple Address Book no longer works. The  Address Book app has quit several times recently, again for no apparent reason. It is probably unrelated, but Preview has also been quitting. I have repaired permissions and used Disk Warrior 4.4 to rebuild the directory. Any thoughts?

    That was a while back...after a little research to jog my memory, it had to do with iCloud. I found this on another page, and I think this is what I did to fix it:
    "I had the same problem and fixed it a slightly different (and probably safer) way:
    Backup your Address Book - File > Export > Address Book Archive
    Go into preferences > iCloud - untick syncing for Contacts
    When it asks you, tell it to delete the contacts from your local Mac (all your local address cards will be deleted but they will still be in iCloud)
    All your cards should now be deleted from Address Book on your Mac
    Quit Address Book
    Go into preferences > iCloud - tick syncing for Contacts (this will download your contacts into Address Book again)
    Open Address Book and after a few secs you should see all your cards and the problem should be fixed"
    The important part is to be sure to export your Address Book before doing anything. I think I ended up afater deleting all the cards and quitting address book, I reimported them from the backup I exported. Has been fine since. This is pretty safe as long as you have that exported file.

  • Contact photos are not showing up in Mail message list, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it.

    I'm using Mail 5.3 and Address Book 6.1.3 on X 10.7.5. I want my contact photos to show up in the message list on Mail, but only some of them do, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it. I've even tried replacing a photo that doesn't show up with a photo that does show up for a different contact but no luck. I am syncing to one other Mac, an iPhone and an iPad via iCloud.

  • Why are none of the groups in my Address Book showing up the address book tool in the new message window in Mail? Actually how do I get the two to match?

    I seem to have lost the groups from my Address Book in the address book tool in Mail. When I try to address a new email, all my contacts are grouped under all and the other groups found in my Address Book application are missing. Is there a way to get the groups to show up in the address book within Mail?

    When you make changes in AB, quit Mail for the changes to be added to Mail's database file. Reopen Mail and try it.

  • I want to delete all the cards in personal address book and collected address, so I delete all of them, but when I reboot thunderbird, they all came back.

    I want to delete all the cards in personal address book and collected address, so I delete all of them, but when I reboot thunderbird, they all came back.

    Select Help/Troubleshooting Information, click Show Folder to open the profile folder in your OS's file manager, exit TB, delete (or move to another location) abook.mab (Personal Address Book) and history.mab (Collected Addresses). When you restart TB, you should have empty PAB and CA address books.

  • How do I customize the toolbar in my address book in Leopard? Is it gone?

    My old Ibook with tiger crashed and I upgraded to a macbook pro with leopard. It appears that I can't customize the toolbar on the address book? I used to have actions (send email, configure, etc) on the address book in my old tiger system.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Skip

    Hi Skip
    Yes, Apple removed the "Actions" icon from Address Book in Leopard. You have to use the "Send email" option that appears when you click on "Work" or "Home" next to the email address on a contact page. Similarly "iChat". I'm not sure about "Configure", but you can use the Edit button at the botttom of the window to change a contact's details.

    Export Your Mac OS X Mail Address Book Contacts to a CSV File
    To save your contacts from the Mac OS X Address Book to a CSV (comma-separated values) file, which lets you import the data to many other address books:
    Download and install AB2CSV.
    Open AB2CSV.
    Select Mode | CSV from the menu.To configure which fields will be exported, you can select AB2CSV | Preferences… from the menu and go to the CSV tab.
    Now select File | Export from the menu.
    Go to your Documents folder.
    Click Choose.
    The exported address book contacts are saved to a file called "everyone.csv" in your Documents folder.

  • I have lost the contents of my Address Book on my iMac Intel. The Contacts on both my iPod Touch 4th Gen.

    I have lost the contents of my Address Book on my iMac Intel. The Contacts on both my iPod Touch 4th Gen. & my iPad 1st Gen. are ok but synching them with the iMac doesn't restore the Address Book.

    John,
    The synch with my iPad didn't restore my Address Book, but when I changed the Contacts preference on my iPod Touch & synched it my Address book was restored. Thanks for the help.

  • Help! I cannot find and retrieve the contents of my Address Book from Time Machine.

    Last week I backed up my iMac using Time Machine, saving everything onto an external hard drive. I then re-installed the OS X, and have since been steadily retrieving all the important stuff onto my cleaned up iMac. However, I can't find the contents of my Address Book, to the annoyance of my wife. Where is it?

  • HT4489 I have been unable to import the cards from my Address Book to ICloud, for some reason they do not fit the criteria because "
