IOS 5.0.1 Can't Show OS X Lion Address Book Profile Fields?

In OS X Lion, Apple introduced Profile fields into the Address Book:
Social network profiles
Address Book lets you quickly access the social network profiles of your contacts, including Facebook. Press and hold an email address to select the appropriate profile.
So, I filled this all in on my Mac. But then I synced my iPhone (running iOS 5.0.1) with my iMac, and discovered that the Contacts app on the iPhone doesn't show these fields. Is this true, or have I done something wrong?

I'm going to try that next.
What I just tried was creating a New Card in Address Book on my Mac and filling in these fields:
• First Name
• Last Name
• Twitter
• Facebook
• Flickr
I then synced my iPhone with my Mac, via iTunes.
The new card showed up in Contacts on my iPhone, but only the First Name and Last Name are visible. The three Profile fields I filled in are not there! Clearly this is a bug.

  • How can I show alphabet tabs in Address Book OS 10.7?

    Finally installed OS 10.7 yesterday and (not to be a stick in the mud but) now have it working pretty much like classic Snow Leopard, yay.
    Why is it that Address Book keeps getting worse instead of better with each new OS X?
    Please tell me how to show the letter tabs so I can quickly go to the name I am looking for.
    Thanks!

    I don't think there are any tabs.
    I usually just start typing the name of the contact I'm looking for in the search field.
    I agree with you, Address Book in Lion is not Apple's finest achievement.
    The good news, is that it appears to get better when it becomes Contacts in Mountain Lion.
    Among other things, three column viewing is back.

  • After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for  Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.

  • Why My iPad 3 iOS 6 apps stores can't show the iPhone apps

    Why My iPad 3 iOS 6 apps stores can't show the iPhone apps..

    Devices connecting to the app store are detected and the appropriate apps are shown for the device...for example, a Mac OS X computer will only display the Mac App Store apps, an iPhone will only display the apps that will work on the iPhone, an iPad will only display the apps that will work on the iPad, and in this case there are apps that work on both the iPad and iPhone so those apps are displayed but not the iPhone-only apps.

  • Format address panel in iCal to show Department from the address book. At the moment it is showing 'Job Title' even though that has been removed in Address Book.

    Can anybody help please How do I Format address panel in iCal to show Department from the address book. At the moment it is showing 'Job Title' even though that has been removed in Address Book.

    I have a similar problem. I actually spoke with a Paypal customer Representative a few months back who informed me that they had deleted all of my previous *Hidden* Address but when I just purchased an item today on a online merchant's site that I had never been to before and checked out using their Paypal option, I noticed that my default shipping address was in fact my old address and when I went to change the address to my current address, I noticed all of the old addresses I ever used were still there. I've just spoken with 2 separate paypal representatives who confirmed on their end that all of the old address have been deleted and the only one they have on file is my current address. Can anyone provide me an explanation as to why the old hidden address can still be showing up when I check out on merchant's sites using paypal even after they've seemingly been deleted? The last Representative suggested clearing out my browser's cache, but I don't believe that will resolve my issue. Thank you in advance.

  • How can I recover my accidentaly deleted address book?

    I was working in my address book this morning and selected a contact that I wanted to delete. When I pressed the delete button, all of a sudden my entire address book dissapeared. I'm fairly sure I only selected the specific contact, but apparently somehow my entire address book got deleted with it.
    I can still see the two default address books of thunderbird on the left side, but they always have been and still are empty. The third address book (the one that I've been using the past years), is completely gone.
    I have tried to recover the address book in multiple ways:
    - looked in the recycle bin of my computer and of thunderbird, but there was nothing to be found in both of them
    - I used the 'undo' button about 4 to 5 times, but nothing happened unfortunately. Ctrl+z didn't give any response as well
    - I waited with closing thunderbird, untiI I looked up my Thunderbird profile in user/appdata/roaming/thunderbird/profiles/****.defaul. I copied the abook.mab file to another directory, closed thunderbird and restarted it. Unfortunately this didn't help either.
    - I've also tried to recover any deleted files on my entire computer using Recuva software. I haven't been able to find anything related to the address book thought.
    Is there any way to retrieve/recover my thunderbird address book?
    I haven't been able to find a good solution online as of yet. But I figure it can't just be completely gone after I've clicked teh delete button by accident, right?
    I'm using thunderbird 24.4.0 on Windows 8.1. Currently I am not using a tool to synchronise the address book to my google account, because I'm working with the maillinglist and I haven't found a way to synchronise them fully. So there's no recent backup of the address book unfortunately.
    I really hope you can help me with this. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks a lot for your fast reply!
    I've tried both options you gave, but unfortunately didn't manage to restore/retrieve any data from the file. The MoreFunctionsForAddressBook add on is very user friendly however and easy to work with.
    I also found a few threads that explain that it is possibe to open the original abook.mab file in a text editor and delete some entries in it, to 'turn back' the command that said to delete the addressbook in the first place.
    This is the one I've found and tried to follow: http://www.pirules.org/blog/?page_id=312 and
    I've played around with it a bit, and managed to retrieve the specific address I was meaning to delete at the time the whole addressbook got accidentaly deleted. I didn't manage to retrieve the full addressbook though, mostly because I have a hard time understanding the code language that is used in the file....
    Could this be an option for me? And if so, how do I determine which entry to delete from the file and which one to leave alone?

    Old Entourage is POP and new Mavericks MAIL  is IMAP I believe. I don;t know how to export in the forms you mention. Frances

  • I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    Set up an additional user account and use one for work and one for personal stuff - each will have a separate address book. Turn on fast user switching for easy switching between the two.

  • How can I return to the Classic address book 3 pane view?

    How can I return to the Classic address book 3 pane view  & get rid of the stupid fake leather and same for iCal?

    I asked the same question at the Apple Genius Bar a week or so ago and they said there was no way to change it.  I am with you - do not like this new format at all and would love it if Apple would offer both -maybe when they do an "fix" next?  This was one change in Lion that should not have been made from Snow Leopard.  I am really sorry I upgraded at this point.

  • Can I transfer/migrate my mail address book from my old G5 OS 10.4.11 to a new Maverick 10.9.4 ?

    Can I transfer/migrate my mail address book from my old G5 OS 10.4.11 to a new Maverick 10.9.4 ?

    Thank you so much! I actually need help transferring my old address book with all my contacts and their e-mail addresses. I had trouble setting up mail so I used my internet provider's webmail to send and receive mail, but that is fixed now.
    If I have to manually enter each contact, I'll do that, but it sure would be nice if there was a way to transfer the address book.
    Thanks again.

  • Why can't I edit or delete Address Book "On My Mac" or sync with iCloud?

    Why can't I edit or delete Address Book cards on my Macs, now that I've migrated to iCloud?  I can edit/delete if I go to iCloud, but the changes don't sync with my Macs.  What's happening, and what's a solution?  Just wait for Apple to fix a bug?

    On your mac, if your look at the left panel of the Address Book, you'll find general categories of "iCloud" and possibly "On my mac" - if you have contacts in the latter, then they are only local to your mac, they are not shared with iCloud.  If you don't have an "iCloud" category, then your mac(s) is not set up of iCloud.  Go to system preferences and look in iCloud.  Is the mac signed into iCloud, are contacts turned on for syncing?

  • Contacts added in Messages don't show up in Contacts/Address Book?

    Okay, here's what's happening:
    1) A friend messages me for the first time
    2) At the top of the message window I hit "Add contact"
    3) I type in the details
    4) Now, this new contact SHOULD show up in my Address Book/the Contacts app, right? But it doesn't!

    If found a thread on stackexchange dealing with several suggestions, none of which worked for me. The last message in the thread is diappointing as it basically says "don't use the add contact feature in the Message app". Unfortunately that is the answer I'll be going with since the feature is obviously broken.
    Here's the link to the thread: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/36131/some-contacts-not-showing-up-but- are-still-stored-in-iphone-4
