Mail Address Panel

I have just installed OS X Yosemite and when in Mail, I can't find the Address Panel which I used to use with OS X Mavericks to select multiple addressees for an e-mail. As it stands now, I can only add addressees one at a time from contacts or Previous Recipients List, which is very time consuming. If I want to send out an email to say 20 recipients, how do I select them as I previously could by using Mail > Window > Address Panel and then select all the addressees that I wanted and then add them to my email with one click of the mouse?

Actually, I was being PC (Politically Correct). It's my wife who is having the problem. Sometimes, she cannot think of the names of the people she would like to send an e-mail (if it's one going to lots of people) so she always used the Address Panel as a way of kick-starting her brain as to who should receive the e-mail.
I guess she could always go through the alphabet from A to Z.
Just open contacts app next to the message window. You can even drag the contacts from the Contacts app into the Address line.

  • Contacts not appearing in the Mail address panel

    If I am in Mail on my MacBook the mail program knows nothing about any addresses in my contact list.
    The Address Panel and Previous Contacts lists are empty.
    If I open my contacts list - I see all my contacts properly.
    They also sync properly between my phone and macbook.  I can add a contact to my pone and a second or two later it appears on my MB; and I can add a contact to my MB and seconds later it appears on my phone.
    Here is when I believe the problem started.
    I wanted all my mail and contacts to be in my 'documents' folder so I could sync that folder, and only that folder, between multiple places and machines and also backup everything in one fell swoop.
    a) I moved the mail and the application support/addressbook folders from my library to my docs folder.
    b) In the terminal created hard links in the original places pointing to the new.  I was careful to make hard links not soft.
    From the finder and from the terminal the links are all working fine works fine.  And as I mentioned the sync function to my phone finds the moved files and works great.  Mail work fine. I can create new accounts etc so mail preferences work fine. I also did this with my messages and dropbox and they are working fine.
    If I  reveal   ' ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/MailRecents-v4.abcdmr'
    It is in         '  /Users/MyUserFolder/Documents/$ AddressBook'
    If I  reveal   ' ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail'
    It is in         ' /Users/MyUserFolder/Library/Containers'
    So everything looks good.  But obviously it isn't.  I am missing moving a file somewhere, or possibly a pref file needs edited.
    Gosh, I sure hope Apple didn't hardcode a lowlevel address into the mail program somehow.  That would have been shortsighted and against unix principles that want everything to be accessible through the file system - but it wouldn't be the 1st time they changed something inside unix.
    I found the discussion, Re: Why can't Mail access email addresses from Contacts? and looked at that.
    I did not see anything that looked like it would help me since it seemed he could see the contacts in his address panel it just wouldn't auto search them. I thought about trying the two things Linc Davis mentioned but he cautioned against changing any of the contents of the sandbox.  The last time I was deep into the OS was before it had a sandbox so I am not familiar with it and am not sure what would or would not affect the sandbox; so I hesitate to try until I understand that.
    I am running 10.8.2 build 12C60 and Mail 6.2 (1499)  on a MB Pro 15" Early'08  2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    So they is something about Mary Mail.  Anyone have any ideas for me?
    Could Mail have a relative address or very low level address to the addressbook built into it?

    More Info:
    If I  reveal   ' ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/MailRecents-v4.abcdmr'
    It is in         '  /Users/MyUserFolder/Documents/$ AddressBook'
    If I  reveal   ' ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail'
    It is in         ' /Users/MyUserFolder/Library/Containers'

  • Is there a way to have the address panel open automatically when opening Mail in Mavericks?

    Before upgrading to Mavericks, Mail panels such as the Address Panel would open if they were open last time quit the program. Now I can't see a way to have this happen. I have to manually open these.

    You can add the Address Panel to the toolbar for easy access. Personally, I just start typying and let Autofill enter the email address I want.

  • Address Panel in Mail.app empty but Address Book app full

    I recently updated to Mountain Lion. I have a mid-2011 iMac i7. I can't honestly say that it stopped working with the advent of Mountain Lion but it is the most recent change.
    When I type a name in the Mail.app new email "To" field it will not read my contacts. The processing lined circle spins over on the right but never does anything. I looked in my contacts app and everything is fine. If I go into the mail.app and go to window->address panel it is empty. I am not using iCloud for contacts on any of my devices.
    I tried searching a contact name from spotlight and it shows up under contacts... but hey, like i said, all my contacts are available in the contacts app.

    Thunderbird does not have this problem, nor does Postbox. Both are now listed under security settings as having address book access. Mail.app is not listed as having access and there's not an option to add it.
    Thunderbird (free): http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/
    Postbox (free for 30 days, $10 to buy): http://postbox-inc.com

  • How can I remove an e-mail address from iphoto 9.5.1

    I have one bad e-mail address in Iphoto and it wont let me correct it or enter an alternat e-mail address for that person.
    I have erased the offending address from gmail and any other place I could find it but could do it in iphoto.

    Where in iPhoto are you seeing an offending email address for a person? Has it been assigned to a face?
    Then you need to edit the address in Faces view.  Select the Faces stack on the cork board in Faces view, open the Info panel,  and click into the textfield for the email and edit it. Does that work?

  • How do I automatically or manually add incoming e-mail addresses to my address book?

    How do I automatically or manually add incoming e-mail addresses to my address book?

    Automatically? Really?? All addresses of all senders just sucked into the address book, spammers, advertisers and all?
    Where an address appears in the panel above the message text, there is a star alongside it. Click this star to add the address to your Address Book. Once you have done that, you can click the star again to edit the address book entry.
    Note that if the star is empty/grey (silver?) the contact is unknown. If the star is filled/yellow (gold?), the Contact is already in your address book. (This is very like the way bookmarks are managed in Firefox.)
    If you really want all senders' addresses entered indiscriminately into your address book, this add-on may be of interest.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus Printer says "acquiring e-mail address...​" and won't move on.

    I have just installed this new printer, and when the printer control panel began setting up for e-print, it got hung up at "acquiring e-mail address."  I have already set everything up through the installation CD.

    Bpa,
    Try the steps below.
    1. Open an internet browser type printer's IP address.
    2. Should bring you to the printer's status page.
    3. Select network tab at the top.
    4. Left hand side select IPv4 under wireless.
    5. Under DNS address Configuration select Manual DNS Server.
    6. For Preferred enter 8.8.8.8
    7. For Alternate enter 8.8.4.4
    8. Select apply. You might get a warning saying this could interrupt connection that's fine.
    9. Turn printer off for about 30 seconds then try again.
    Let me know how it goes.

  • Need to add an e-mail address to an e-mail symbol/link

    Hi, I have an envelope symbol in my .fla file and I need to assign it an e-mail address. I can find the symbol in the library but am not sure where to add/insert the actual e-mail address. The .fla is a template if that is relevant - Thanks, Chris (I am using Flash CS4 and MS Web Expression is my design app.)

    If you cannot find that symbol at all in the file when you run it, then place one on the stage and add some code for it. Since your file is using AS 2.0, click on the email symbol and assign it an instance name in the properties panel, let's say you name it "emailLink".
    Then, in the same frame on another layer add the following actionscript...
    emailLink.onRelease = function(){
         getURL("[email protected]");
    When you run the file online it will open an email window with the address already entered.  If you test it while in the authoring mode, you are likely to have a browser window also appear, but this only happens when testing from your pc.

  • Lost ability to add, delete and move email addy's in Address Panel

    Not long ago I downloaded Snow Leopard 10.6.3 from disc and then upgraded to 10.6.8.  Perhaps a coincidence, but now I see I'm no longer able to use Address Panel as I previously had.  Specifically: I recall there had been + and - buttons to add and delete email addresses, but now I don't see these ~ perhaps I'm looking for the wrong thing?  Also, I can't drag and drop an addy from one group to another as I previously had.  I'm using Mail 4.6.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Other than the Snow Leopard download, I've no idea what may have caused this problem.  Or perhaps I simply don't know where to look ~
    Thank you!

    My bad ( : - 0 !  I figured this out:
    It's Address Book ~ not Address Panel ~ that does the trick.
    Thanks!

  • Plus & minus keys not available in address panel

    I just started using Mac mail and was able to add new addresses to the address panel, but lately the plus and minus signs are not available in the address panel window. How do I get them back? Thanks.

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    What address panel? In Mail you can add the address of a sender of and email via a command, but to otherwise add an address in the Addressbook, you must open the separate Addressbook application. The panel of AB reached from within Mail only support getting an address that is already in the AB.

  • Why do I find unknown e-mail addresses when I begin to type in a known address?

    I'm using an IMac and am up to date on my version of OSX, V10.8.4 and have discovered a problem with Mail. When I want to send an e-mail I will type in the address. The first letter of that address triggers a drop down box showing all the e-mail addresses starting with that letter that are in the system. I started to look thru the llist of addresses and found some e-mail addresses of people that are not in my address book and I have never sent to or received from. Where do they come from?

    As the folder indicates they were "Previous recipietns". Perhaps you replied some passed around emails from friends with more than one email address in the address panel (cc: or bcc:)?

  • Mail addresses

    My addresses in Mail will only sort by email address and not by name. I have tried clicking on the "name" column heading but nothing happens. I have checked Address Book and it is sorted by last name. Sorting by email address is worthless to me so how can I get it sorted by name?

    Where in Mail are you talking about? In the Address Panel window, they should already be sorted by name.
