Need to update address book for snow leopard

I just recently downloaded the snow leopard to my Mac and now my address book icon says my version 4.1.2 does not work.
How do I update?
Thanks

I don't see how you could have downloaded Snow Leopard, when it's not available as a download and never has been.
Please explain.

My Address Book on Snow Leopard won't Search!

When I type something in on the search field on my address book in Snow Leopard, it won't filter out the search, meaning that nothing new will show up. It will act as if I didn't type anything into the search field at all since nothing changes. I already tried uninstalling the Address Book and reinstalling it from the Snow Leopard DVD but that didn't fix the problem. Any advice?

I just had this same problem. I use multiple mac computers that I sync manually because of a previous idisk issue. I noticed as I updated my cloud, the search function in address book quit working properly on each computer.
So created a new group list and I attempted to copy "All Contacts" into that group. It would not copy all my contacts into that group in one paste function. So I took all the the first 25 names and copied them. That worked. Then I moved to the next 26-50 names and so on. I noticed when I got to the fourth group of copying contacts that it did not paste and froze the application.
I quit address book, reopened it. All the contacts before the the fourth group were in the file. The search function worked on those names. I then went card by card and found one that had a "string" of data listed where an email address should I have been. So I deleted the corrupt card and now my address book search is working again.
Here is the short solve. Look for a corrupt card in your address book. I found the corrupt card by trying to copy it over to a new address group. The card that was corrupt just happened to be one that I had updated in the last week or so...
Hope this helps.

Address Book in Snow Leopard: a real step backwards

Hello everyone-
Is it just me, or has the UI to Address Book changed in Snow Leopard? I could swear that when I used to click a group (just a regular group, not a "smart group") that the 2nd column would have cards for each member of the group, and below the 2nd column would be + and - buttons. You could select a card and click - to remove that card from the group, and clicking + would pop up a list of all the cards and you could pick one to add to the group.
Now, clicking + creates a new blank card and there is no - button. To remove a card from the group, you must select it and hit the delete key, which pops up a window asking if you want to delete the card from the address book or remove it from the group.
Am I crazy in thinking this used to work better in Leopard? The current way it works is very clumsy IMO and very un-Apple. Yuch!

Frankly I don't see much discernibly different between Leo and Snow with regard to AB, iCal, or Mail except for the more advanced options.
Don't expect any major changes in future incremental updates. They will mostly squash bugs and provide security improvements, but AB, iCal, and Mail will not likely change in any major way. Whatever you believe AB was like in Leo versus Snow may be more in your imagination. As I said the functional interface is substantially the same.
I'm not sure why you would see Snow as being radically different from Leo because it isn't. The major changes are under the hood as the OS becomes more exclusively 64-bit, security is beefed up, bugs are squashed, and overall reliability is improved.

Carnet d'adresses (Address Book) in Snow Leopard (French) is in English

Hi,
I use Snow Leopard in French and for some reason Address Book is in English with the exceptions of the menus at the top which are in French. The window title says "Address Book", I have "Edit" instead of "Modifier", etc.
How can I fix this minor inconvenience?
Regards

Hi,
Try deleting this file.
com.apple.systemiuserver.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences.
Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.

How can I get Lion 10.7.5 to open Address book from Snow leopard 10.6

The Snow Leopard 10.6.3 address book is version 5.0.1. I don't know the version of the Lion 10.7.5 address book.

Command + option + R
After 15 minutes of downloading from the web, it seems to do the same thing as:
Command + R
in other words, it still wants to install Mountain Lion and not Lion.
Any other thoughts?

Need help converting old Applescript for Snow Leopard

Ok, so I've downloaded the app "PowerHour" for mac. It needs to use the date function which is different in Snow Leopard, so I've heard. I don't program in Apple Script so I can't figure out what syntax to use. Can anyone help me fix this code below?
I'm trying to code this because I don't think the original developer has any hand in this program anymore.
The app on macupdate: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24107/power-hour
Here's the part that is giving the errors:
set gameLengthAsDate to (date (zeroTime)) + (enteredMinutes * minutes)
set songLengthAsDate to date (songLength)
set gameStart to current date
set songStart to gameStart
set gameEnd to gameStart + (time of gameLengthAsDate)
set songEnd to songStart + (time of songLengthAsDate)

AppleScript in Snow Leopard is a bit pickier about specifying dates. From the AppleScript Release Notes, "the [date] string must exactly match one of the system date formats".
It looks like the script is using a shortcut to set the time of the current date. I didn't test a modified application (just that the script statements set a valid date), but you might give the following a try:
1) change the following properties (declared at the beginning of the script)property zeroTime : 0
property songLength : 60
2) change the statements that set the time toset gameLengthAsDate to (current date)
set time of gameLengthAsDate to zeroTime + (enteredMinutes * minutes)
set songLengthAsDate to (current date)
set time of songLengthAsDate to songLength

How do I delete contacts from address book in Snow Leopard OSX 10.6

I thought I had deleted some contacts from my Address Book but when I then typed in a similar name, all the old addresses came up as options. Can anyone help on this please?   I feel stupid having to ask something that is so simple. Many thanks.

I think I may have found my own solution thank you.    I deleted a contact in the Address Book by using Edit and deleting all the contents from the card.
I also went to the WINDOW MENU and found 'Previous Recipients".   This brought up a whole list of people who had received or sent emails and I deleted the ones I didn't need and now when I start to type in an address in my email I only get the relevant options - not ones from way back.
This might just help somebody else.

Security Update 2013-004 for Snow Leopard Failing

I've been trying to download this new security update for almost 2 weeks now. Every time I try to do it, it says the updates have failed. I've tried doing it with all my updates at once. I've tried doing it as a single update. Each time, it goes through almost the entire process and then says that it couldn't be updated. I'm now encountering other problems as a result of it. I'm trying to backup my iPhone to my computer and it keeps giving me an error, saying that all my software must be up to date... (which I can't have if it keeps failing).
Anyone else having this issue / know of a fix???

Try going to disk utilities and repair permissions, and verify disk, if verify disk comes back with errors (they wil be RED)
Use your install disc, boot holding the C key, select language, next page select utilities from the menu /disk utilities, repair disk.
Log out trya again, use an ehthernet connection rather than wireless, it is less prone interference.
Try settig Ssfari preferences to "save downloaded files to" desktop and then download the stande alone installer, run the installer pkg

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update of software for snow leopard. What do I do? Should I turn off the computer?

do a hard shutdown of the mac (holding down the power button until it shuts off) then do an SMC reset, the following article tells how to do this:

after doing this reset and restarting the mac, try again to install the update.

ICloud for Snow Leopard

Hi there,
I recently followed advice on this link as a workaround for iCloud for SnowLeopard:
Use iCal & Address Book with Snow Leopard on iCloud | iHelp Blog
Then I imported my calendar from Googlecalendar to iCal. I must have done something wrong when putting in the server details etc. (as per this link). Because now I get this:
“The server did not recognize your user name or password for account <xxxxxxxxxx> Make sure you enter them correctly”. Two options “revert to server” or “go offline”. Whichever one I click, nothing happens, and it won’t let me back into “preferences” to change anything. Tried restarting iCal and restarting MacBook. Now worried that I have permanently broken the iCal app….
Anny suggestions? Can I un-install and re-install iCal? How do you do that?
Thanks,
Rachael

Go to (user)/Library/Preferences and remove all .plist files beginning with com.apple.iCal (there should be five).

Reboot your Mac. This should reset iCal to out-of-the-box state, with no calendar contents. You could try replacing the contents of the Calendars folder and see if that works.
You use hacks like the one in that blog at your own risk. Some people have got the iCal one working, but the Address Book one is very flaky and mostly doesn't work.

Address book and ical not working for snow leopard clients

We have upgraded our server to mountain lion from snow leopard.
At first glance all appears to have gone well, however, the ical and address book services don't appear to be working for snow leopard clients. These services DO appear to be working for lion clients.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I am at work right now and don't have access to my Mac. But I need to as if your Dad is on Windows Active Directory network? I also found these directions for Princeton's 2010 Exchange that might help. Did he set up the Address contacts & iCal Calenders were enabled when setting up the account in Mail?

ICloud address book sync for Snow Leopard

Mountain Lion won't run on my Intel-graphics dual core white MacBook. Lion should run, but I've been disappointed with Lion and it is now end-of-life (mercifully short).
So I've a perfectly fine and responsive Snow Leopard machine. Only problem -- when MobileMe dies in June Address Book on that device won't sync with our iPhone [1].
I know Apple doesn't allow 3rd parties to sync anything to iCloud. So there's no solution that way.
One approach is to use a 3rd party app to sync Address Book on this machine with Address Book on another machine that in turn syncs with iCloud.
The easier approach is to go all Google; sync Address Book to Google, set the iPhone to use a Google Apps account. (Ironic that Apple's obsoleting a solid MacBook should drive us to Google.)
Anyone see any other fixes?

[1] For various reasons the iPhone syncs to another machine with our family app/media library. So I can't sync Address Book via iTunes.

In this case I do need to plan ahead, and I'm confident my sources are correct. Apple might add in support for 64bit machines with Intel graphics, but that's a bit unlike them. On the other hand, this entire ML roll out is new, so old rules may not apply.
Here are my requirements, given for various reasons I need to have a plan in place around mid-May for my corporate user base (3 kids, 2 parents, dog is out of luck):
Not Lion: I use Lion, but I don't want to inflict it on the family. Mountain Lion or Snow Leopard only.
We don't want to replace the MacBook - so that means Snow Leopard is required.
Whatever we do, it has to sync to all of our iOS devices as well as our OS X devices. That rules out iCloud for the iOS devices, since iCloud is incompatible with the MacBook (given the no Lion requirement).
We currently use Google calendars and Google Apps extensively, and despite Google's marked turn to the dark side we're stuck there unless Apple offers something we can use or Google drives iOS users away (they might).
That leaves an ActiveSync (Exchange) solution. Apple's enterprise ambitions mean they have to support ActiveSync for iOS going forward. So Google Apps ActiveSync will work with our iOS devices. Snow Leopard is harder -- Snow Leopard's ActiveSync support is broken. Mountain Lion may be better, in which case we can use ML ActiveSync on two machines. For Snow Leopard we'll have to pay Spanning Sync for their Google Sync to Address Book/Contacts and Calendar support. (I saw your Chronosync comment; I own that app, it doesn't help with this problem.)
So it looks like Apple's termination of MacBook support in the Mountain Lion era will push our family off iCloud and onto Google/ActiveSync/Spanning Sync!

Is there a 12/23/2014 security update for Snow Leopard. Does it need one?

Is there a 12/23/2014 security update for Snow Leopard? Does it need one?

The ntp-4.2.8 folder that's created when you download the /ntp-4.2.8.tar.gz file and unzip it. Inside it are subfolders, such as clockstuff w/propdelay.o and libntp w/a_md5encrypt.o, assertions.o, atoint.o, etc. Many .o files abound.
OK, but this isn't .o, it's -o. I don't know of any file extension that uses the - hyphen. Are there any?
Anyway, at the end of flatsixracer's instructions, for sudo ntpd --version, he wrote, "(should now be: ntpd [email protected])" So, since he gets that when running the update, I'm thinking this can go either way, with or without the -o, and be normal.
