IPad2 Adress Book (Contacts) crashes directy

Hi all,
A few days ago i bought my iPad2 and I am very happy with it.
Unfortunately, when I try to start the standard Adress Book app, it directly crashes.
I also have an app wich can use the standard adress book to create classmates in that appl but that app crashes when I press 'create new classmate'.
I think it has something to do with the fact that the adress book does not work.
I have this standard adress book app crash since the very beginning of using my new iPad. My iPad runs on ios5, wich I downloaded directly when i bought my iPad. My dad has a iPad wich stilll runs on ios4.xxxx and he does not have that problem with the crashing adress book app.
I also checked google and saw many more people who have the same problem as I have, but I couldn't find a working solution.
So please help me with this one, I realy enjoy my iPad and it is so sad that the adress book app doesn't work.
And yes, I did shut off the Adress Book app and rebooted my device
Thanks and have a nice day,
Jordi

Ive go the pad this way. IOS 5 is preinstalled. I use googlemail, maybe that causes the problem.

How to get full image from adress book contact

I'm trying to get the full image out of an address book contact. All my basic code is working. The problem that I am having is that for all contacts with images the returned image size is 320x320.
Playing around I have edited contacts, through Contacts.app, by setting a full 320x480 image. I set such an image on my own contact and called my iPhone from a different number. Sure enough when the phone rings the phone displays the full screen original image as I picked it.
So the contact seem to have the full 320x480 image associated with it. But, when I use the ABAddressBook functions to get this same image from the contact, the returned image data says the image is 320x320. And if I display this image data into a view it appears as a square with the top and bottom 80 pixels chopped off.
Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas?

Hey Rick,
I am also working on the same feature. I was also able to retrieve everything fromt eh addressboook. But I have not worked for image as I am not able to design the same GUI for Add New Record, or Info page as present in iPhone. I am facing a problem of adding UIImageView in the design of grouped table cell. and Give the big gap between the UIImage and Table cell where First,Lat Name and Occupation is being present.
Plz help in design view.
Thanx

How do I transfer my address book/contacts from my computer to my ipad?

I recently purchased an iPad 1st generation, so I am in the learning mode. I want to have my adress book contacts on my Macbook Pro, available to me on my iPad. How do I go about this? Thank you

On your Macbook Pro, go to "system preferences", click "icloud" and then check the box for "contacts". Then on your iPad, go to "settings", click "icloud" and make sure that the "contacts" option is "on". That should work.

ICal, Mail, Adress book and more crashes upon launch

This morning I tried to open iCal, it crashed immedialtly. A window opened asking me to restore my window. Did'nt have time to click yes, the app is gone.
I trashed preferences and plists, restart computer, no amelioration.
Then tried to open Mail after restard and it does the same thing (it was working fine before retart). It offered me to retore window then it closed.
Same with Adress Book.
Then I opened my system preferences, click on Mail, contacts and calendar, System prefs crashes.
Tried to open iCloud in syst. prefs, it also crashed (all other items in syst. prefs do not crash).
Repaired permissions (just in case) but everything still crashes.
I have no clue to what to do next... can someone help me with this?
Thank's

Create a new User go to System Preferences > Users & Groups > "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the apps in this new account, if they work the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
If the issue is limited to your user account Did he have you try try starting up in Safe Mode and test.
(It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not Copy & paste this is your "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library
Then go to/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the Desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, moveUsers/yourname/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.

Is there a way to specify which fields are displayed in the "new contact" window in the adress book, or at least highlight the ones that are important to me?

It would be nice if I could put together the fields in the "new contact" window in the adress book, or at least highlight the ones I need with bold letters or a different color. Is there a way? Thank you.

No method I am aware of.
This add-on adds many features, but I don't know if what you seek is included.

How can i add new contacts to the adress book? iOS5

i've just upgrade to iOS 5 and i notice that i can't add new contacts to my adress book beacuse there is no + button

I've solve the problem, you just have to sync your contacts with iCloud, that solve my problem i hope it helps you

I have a Mac 10.5.8 op system. My Contacts do not syn with I cloud. Trying to get my address book complete on both systems and now I have lots of duplicates on I cloud adress book. How do I efficiently merge the duplictes that are now on I cloud?

You cannot use iCloud with Leopard 10.5.8. The minimum requirement is Lion 10.7.2. If you have been syncing your contacts with iCloud you can only have been doing it by some sort of unsupported hack, and if it doesn't work it's unlikely to be possible to find an explanation. If you have been using other (compliant) devices by trying to sync using both iTunes and iCloud you are likely to get duplicates.
A computer old enough running Leopard may well not be upgradeable to Lion or Mountain Lion, but if you can do so this is the only way you are going to be able to make proper use of iCloud.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). (If you are currently pre-Snow Leopard you will have to upgrade to that to access the Mac App Store: it's available in the online Apple Store.)
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

Razr V3i Contacts to Adress Book Help!

I was wondering if there was a way to get my contacts from my Motorola Razr V3i to my adress book, if anyone could help that would be great!!
Thanks

Hi. One way to get contacts onto your computer is through Bitpim. It works with bluetooth and you can sync them that way. Or you can, on your phone, go to "bluetooth" and select your computer's bluetooth name. CHoose options, and move down to "send name card." You can select the contacts you want to send. I believe you can only send a few at a time. Hope it helps.

IPad Address Book (Contacts.app) crash on launch

my iPad address book (Contacts.app) crashes on launch
this problem also affects me when trying to send emails: the email app works fine for reading emails, but as soon as I write a new email and go to the "To" or "cc" or "bcc" boxes to input a recipient address, mail crashes, presumably because the Address book is being accessed at this stage.
I can see that the above can be an Address book (Contacts.app) problem.
Am running pre iOS 4.2 version of the iOS (likely the most up to date pre recent update), i.e. I don't have folders or multi-tasking yet.

OK FIRST , DID U SET UP THE EMAIL CAL AND CONTACTS CORRECTLY? AS FOR IT CRASHING IT SHOULDNT EVEN IF IT IS BLANK! NOW FOR THE PART ABOUT EMAIL NOT WORKING......I RECOMMEND U JUST RESTORE IT AND "YES" begin as a new device!!!! I HAD SAME PROBLEM EXCEPT MINE WAS : backup successful, restore successful, update to 4.2 successful, sync of backup back to iPad successful, ha ha then when I turn iPad on BLANK!!!!! OH THE CAPACITY BAR AT THE BOTTOM OF THE COMPUTER SCREEN IN ITUNES WAS 10.7 gb of music 9.2 of movies, and 5.7 gb of games..... WELL IPAD WAS EMPTY!
Sync 3 times same result..... RESTORED IT AND SYNCED BACKUP DATA AGAIN, still nothing! SO I RESTORED AND STARTED NEW! PERFECT?!
So I had to select the apps and other media that I wanted to put back on it! AND YES I LOST ALL THE PHOTOS (maybe I haven't found it on pc, so for now I assume lost) but PRIOR TO UPDATE I EMAILED ALL MY NOTES TO MYSELF SO THEY WERE JUST A COPY AND PASTE BACK TO MY NOTES APP ON THE IPAD!
Same with photos! Yeah tedious but I like to SEE INFO SAVED prior to any apple updates! So yeah there is something wrong with the sync portion of the update! So I suggest u just swallow loss and forget the data! AS FOR CONTACTS: just hop on computer and email a GROUP EMAIL OF CONTACTS TO IPAD THEN SET UP EMAIL ON IPAD AND THEN GO TO THAT EMAIL AND ADD THEM TO CONTACTS MANUALLY (or u can use your email server and sync via iTunes (see last tab on the iTunes menu for your device and there u can choose to sync calendars too)

Synching Contacts on IPhone to Adress Book

Hi, I've been having trouble synching my contacts from my IPhone 4 to my Adress Book. I know they've been synched and are available in my ITunes backups, but I can't seem to export them to the Adress Book. Any suggestions?

If you're using Mobile Me, you can try this: On the iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contact, Calendars > Account Name. Turn OFF contacts syncing. The in iTunes on the computer, view the Info tab on the iPhone item page. You should now be able to check the Sync Address Book checkbox and then click the Sync button. This might work with non Mobile Me accounts too.

Problems with iCal, Adress Book, Pages and System Preferences

Hi,
No less. Two days ago, I noticed that iCal crashed immediately after I open it, but as I was in an hurry, didn't take attention to that. After that, I forgot completely the issue. Till today, when I discovered that Pages opens a file but immediately after that it don't respond to any command and "Force Quit" report the program as "Not Responding". The same happens with Text Edit. I investigated a little and discovered that Adress Book and System Preferences also crashes immdiately when opens. In the last case, it only happens with certain options: for instance, iCloud, Mails, Contacts & Calendars. A little more research showed me that this only happens within my administrator account (my wife and kid accounts don't have from this problem). This is also the account that I use to synchronize with my Ipad and Iphone. On the other hand, my MacBook with the same OS and almost the same programs works fine.
Any ideas about what can be the cause of this issue?
Thanks!

Adress book has totally gone

hello
my adress book has totally gone, around 2000 names lost, in 1 second for no reason, please help me...!
thanx

The same thing happend to me 3 times in the last couple of days. It seems to coincide with a crash of Mail and or iChat. My whole Address Book is deleted save for a contact for Apple and my own card. After the first time it happened I tried to retrieve a back-up from .Mac and only 4 contacts were added to my empty Address Book. Luckily I had a month old back-up on my laptop. Now I back up everyday using the "Back up Address Book" command under the file menu of Address Book. Does anyone know why this keeps happening or how to prevent it from continuing?
