My contacts on Mac are empty, but fully loaded in iCloud?

All of my CONTACTS in the Address Book (Mac Contacts App) are not displaying.  It appears "empty", but the data is still in iCloud and accessible from the iPad, iPhone and iCloud via web browser - just not the Mac Contacts App on my iMac.  Not sure how to refresh the iMac or possible fix a registry file issue or something that will correct the problem.

Open the iCloud pane in System Preferences and sign in to your account, if not already signed in. Check the box marked Contacts.

  • ICloud albums in iPhoto are empty, but they show up on iPhone and iPad.

    I am opening iPhoto, and when I go to my iCloud folder the albums are their, but there are no photos in the album. My mac mini is all up to date and so in iPhoto. The odd thing is the photo albums are on my iPad and iPhone with all of the photos. Anyone know what I can do ti fix this? I have tried signing out of iCloud and that did nothing.

    Hi,
    I am still not sure where you are extracting it from.
    Messages comes in two version in Mountian Lion.
    At OS X 10.8 and 10.8.1 the version is version 7.0
    At OS X 10.8.2 Messages is updated to version 7.0.1
    This is a common form of update used since iChat 3
    However versions across OS X version do not work as some of the changes are too great and some cases the support folders have moved and even been added to over the different versions.
    As you say that the version you have works with a Test user the most likely "block" would be a corrupted .plist but you have moved all of these if I remember correctly.
    Go to Applications/Utilities and open Keychain Access.
    You should have several "A" looking icons made up of the pen, brush and ruler.
    Some should relate to your AIM/Apple IDs that can be used with the AIM Login in Messages (and other apps)
    Double click these to bring up the Info Panel.
    Click on the Access tab.
    Check that any name is allowed access by IMAgent, Messages. IMCore and Internet accounts.
    Repeat fro all names and IDS used in Messages.  (Jabber/Yahoo/Google etc)
    There should also be one that reads "iMessage: your AppleIDhere-AuthToken"
    Check this allows the same items.
    If the "Allow all Applications..." button is ticked then delete the item.

  • Updated to OS X 10.9.2, why are my email folders in "On My MAC" are empty?

    I just updated to OS X 10.9.2 last night.  I couldn't find some of my personal email folders.  I finally found them in "On My MAC"; however, the email folders are empty - all the emails that were previously filed in those folders are missing.  How do I get these emails back in my folders?

  • Archive and File area empty, but used space full

    Hi,
    I have a problem with the File area. I loaded files on my 20GB space. Later I deleted them by putting them in the archive. No file were shown in the archive. I tried several times. The Creative Cloud Mac application tells me now that my space is full, but nothing appears either in the Files or in the Archive section. I also emptied the local folders, nothing.
    Thanks for help

  • Drop down boxes are empty but clicking in it still works, same with right clicking the mouose.

    When I click on the File, Edit... buttons the drop down box appears and is empty. I can guess where something should be and click on it and I'll get a reaction but I don't always get it right. When I Right Click on the mouse to copy and paste I get the same thing.

    There's a couple of slightly incompatible add-ons that can cause that, you need to troubleshoot to discover the cause. <br />

  • Mac Mail spins, but not load

    I have 3 different mail accounts that Mac Mail downloads from. 2 of them work fine, but as of yesterday one of the accounts simply spins, NEVER stopping and never downloading mail from the server. All of my settings (smtp, etc) are correct. While the account spins, I can't quit mail and have to force quit. Once I re-open mail after a force quit and shutting down, the spinning on that one account continues. I've checked with the server, and we can't find any problem on that end and I can go directly to the server and have mail in the "broken" account forwarded to one of my other 2 e-mail accounts that Mac Mail has no problem with. I'm stumped. Any ideas?
    Dan

    Hi Dan.
    It's a POP account and "remove copy from server after retrieving a message".
    Not sure what you mean. You haven’t really answered my question, have you?
    Try this to determine the scope of the problem:
    1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts, and create a new user account for testing purposes.
    2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
    3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there with the problematic POP account.
    4. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced and disable Remove copy from server after retrieving a message if it’s enabled.
    5. Check whether the problem also happens when logged in as another user.

  • Updated CCB records are extracted but not loaded into OBIU.

    This is OBIU version 2.3.2 and CCB version 2.3.1
    Records updated in CC&B are successfully added to the Change Log (CI_CHG_LOG). They are also extracted successfully by base extract program EXTACCT. However, when the data is loaded into OBIU (using OWB), the record update is not reflected into OBIU. This was tested for base object CD_ACCT.
    The OWB mapping object only creates CD_ACCT records for those accounts in the Change Log with Change Type of 'I' (or Insert). The OWB mapping object does not process those with Change Type of 'U' (or Update). How does one get this Change Type to be processed ?
    A new record (with a new effective date) should have been created that would have up-to-date values for its UDFs.
    The update procedure was able to update the End Date and Job Number of the old record correctly. However, without the creation of a new effective record, all new fact records related to the Account record will no longer have an account related to it.
    This makes the data inaccurate.
    This does not just apply to CD_ACCT, but to other base tables/entities as well. No changes have been done to the DB trigger and OWB metadata of CD_ACCT. The extract program has a user-exit that populates some of the UDFs.
    A custom user exit has been introduced to the extract program of CD_ACCT. DB trigger and OWB metadata have not been changed.
    EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
    The OWB mapping object is expected to process records with Change Type of 'U' (or Update). A new record (with a new effective date) should be created that would have up-to-date values for its UDFs.

  • Web Page Compatability...Photos don't fully load

    Greetings from The Great Smoky Mts.
    We're grasping at straws now....not sure if this is the spot to solve our problem but any help will be appreciated.
    OK, after 5 years on WebTV, we decided to go to a computer....
    We chose iMac G5 so it wouldn't be outdated by the time we learned to use it.....
    We had no hardrive with WebTV and therefore used a site which was created to help Webbies create web pages....they back up all the files every week....
    In our file manager there, we store all the photos that link to the website we created.
    Since getting our Mac, we have been unable to view fully loaded images which have more than 29kb's.....
    The administrator at wtv-zone.com was patient but in the end suggested we had an ISP problem....we posted in the iMac Discussion and several people went to view our site and said the pages of photos loaded fully.
    OK, we figured it wasn't an Apple problem.
    So, we changed from NetZero to ArcZip as an ISP.....no difference.
    We downloaded Foxfire...no success....
    At this point, we are totally baffled/Help is needed....Please
    We thought about downloading IE to see if that would help but before we make that decision, we need some input from someone who understands our problem....Could it be something with our computer in particular?
    Could it be the way The Zone is presenting it's pages to the ISP?
    Here's a link to our site: http://www wtv-zone.com/wendrick/signs.html
    We also have problems with all the other sites hosted at wtv-zone but no problems anywhere else.....With our dial-up connection, sometimes images with high kb's take a little while to load but only at The Zone do they fail to load fully.
    Anyone know anything about what our problem is and more importantly....a solution?
    Should we download IE?....We still have our WebTV and it's on the same phone line as our Mac and it still fully loads the photos....
    Oh, here's another interesting tidbit...when we go to our file manager and view a photo, it comes up immediately (like it's already loaded).... we can refresh the page and more of it will show but if it's 30kb's or above it never fully loads....
    This is getting frustrating....
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance, Regards, Wendrick

    We finally found the right? combination to work around our problem.....By using Firefox as a browser, we went to the photos that were over 29kb's and even though they refused to fully load...when we reloaded the page, they finished loading....still not perfect but at least we were able to drag them to our desktop and insert them in an album....We then switched back to Safari using the same ISP and couldn't get them to load...So, it appears to be a problem with our Safari....Obviously, this is the wrong Discussion to get help with that.

  • Contacts entered on iPhone 4s suddenly missing, present on iCloud - how to recover?

    Wife's iPhone 4s has out-of-date Yahoo contacts, but is suddenly missing all of the contact information she has entered on the iPhone itself.
    iCloud sync is currently disabled - apparently by default when upgraded to iOS 7? - but when we login to iCloud, most or all of the contacts she entered are available.  (Latest sync w iCloud may be a couple of months ago; latest sync with iTunes on Macbook Pro was over 2 years ago, so no joy there.)
    How to safely recover contacts from iCloud back to iPhone, without resetting iPhone?
    Concerns:
    (1) Clearly if we reset the iPhone, it would restore from iCloud - but would also lose text conversations, at least the ones that happened since the last sync.
    (2) If we simply re-enable iCloud sync, will missing contacts be copied from iCloud to phone?  or will they instead be deleted from iCloud, because they were seemingly "removed" from phone after latest sync?
    (3) Do we need to delete all contacts from phone, then enable iCloud sync?  But see concern #2! - and also, will deleting Yahoo contacts from phone delete them from Yahoo too?
    Any advice or procedural pointers greatly appreciated - thanks!

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • My itunes on my phone and ipad are syncd but the itunes on my mac is empty ive plugged in both phone and pad but no syncing what can i do

    i have only had my imac 27in a week my problem is my iphone and ipad are perfectly synced with i tunes but the itunes on my mac is empty i plugged them both in but it stays the same what can i do anyone know please

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall for the network problem.
    Also for the original problem try the following if Ana's suggestions does not work
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
