Why does Lion KEEP reversing changes you make in address book and other applications without your consent and without wanting it to??? Plus address book will NOT import old address book contacts from Snow Lepoard 10.6 and keep them. This Lion OXS 7 is .. becoming very frustrating ... it will NOT keep changes made in the Address Book and it has destroyed my contacts which I only have electronically since 10.4 in my address book. I am NOT happy with this OS7 it has a lot of issues and faults. How can one stop automatic reversing of data when inputting???
Please help!
Wished I NEVER upgraded to this Lion!!!

Relax. Your address book database is corrupted.
If you are syncing your Contacts with MobileMe or something else, disable it for now.
Backup your address book by going to File>Export>Address Book Archive.
Quit Address Book.
Open your Library by holding down the Option (alt) key while selecting the Go menu in Finder. Select Library. Navigate into your Application Support/AddressBook folder and delete the addressbook-v22.abcddb file.
Open Address Book. It will recreate the database from the raw data.
See how that works. If it is ok, then reenable syncing and see how that works.

Cant sync NEW group in Address Book to Itunes

So here is my delema. I got a new Iphone (From BB), and instead of typing with my thumbs to insert all my old contacts, i opened address book on my macbook pro running Lion and firstly created a new group, then started adding and creating new contacts within that new group. Once finished, i opened Itunes and it does not recognize the new group and i can not sync my new entries to my phone. Even tho when i check all contacts in Address book it shows my new entries, its almost like they don't exist. Also if i check import ALL contacts in Itunes it also does not import the new entries. Like i said, in theory they are in Address book, but not recognizable???
Very frustraing. Any suggestions.

Oh flip what did i do.
So i followed the instructions from that link. I re did my address book. That did not seem to work. So i reset my sync folder by copying and pasting the recomended path into the moniter. now when i go to itunes and try and sync my contacts absolutly nothing goes onto my phone.
I am so frustrated and now a little worried.
Sound familiar at all???

Smart Groups in Address Book Do Not Update

I use Smart Groups in Address Book in Lion. It has worked great before the upgrade to Lion. Now when I create an entry with the proper fields to activate the entry go to a Smart Group. It doesn't. I have compared the parameters and compared with other addresses with the same parameters and still no update of the Smart Group.

This same concept applies to syncing two macs via .Mac
The method I use for iPhone is this.
Define your smart group as needed.
Define a read group with a similar or convenient name.
From time to time drag your whole smart group to the real group.
The real group is the one that then syncs to your iPhone.
As a safety factor, I usually clear all entries from my real group before I drag over the updated smart group.
Anyway, this is simple and works well.
Hope that helps.

HT2486 adding multiple names to a new group in address book

I have a list of 125 names that I would like to put in my address book under a new group, but I don't want to have to enter each name individually. How do I do that?

Just drag the contact to the new group name.
Edit: Make sure it's a group and not a "smart group". Smart Groups are populated by search criteria.

Address Book will not import my .csv

i am switching over from windows to mac and trying to setup my ABook. i have both .csv and .txt files of my contacts.
if i choose my .csv the file import says "The file you selected does not appear to be a valid comma separated values (csv) file nor a valid tab delimited file, please choose another file."
if i choose the .txt file, it appears to allow me to import and i can choose the various headings and such to import, however nothing actually happens.
also, when i choose my .txt file it opens into excel and then says it cannot be properly saved into the format i want.
what is up? please help. i'm trying to get used to my mac, but sometimes, i just want to throw it out the window.
thank you.

Add receipients of message as group in address book

ok, this seems simple, but once again, Mac disagrees and makes it impossibly complicated. I typed in about 15 email addresses for a mass mailing I did in Mail recently, and I want to save these people as a group. I'll send emails to them all again in the future. here are the problems I've encountered:
1. when I select all the addresses in the "sent" message header, and then select "add to address book," it only adds one of the addresses. ridiculous.
2. even if I was to add them individually, I would then need to manually create a new group in address book, and then add each address one by one. again, ridiculous.
3. one suggestion on here was to export my entire address book, then delete all entries, add the ones from the message, save them as a group, then re-import the original addresses. again, and again, ridiculous.
why is this so difficult? am I missing something?

figured it out. when in doubt, drag.
highlight the entries you want to save, open address book, create a new group name, and drag the entries from mail and drop them on the group. done.

How to create a group in address book from a mail folder

I have a mailbox folder in mail with about 100 emails. I want to add all of these email addresses to a new group in address book app. How can I add all of theses at one time to a new group. I dont want to add each email address one at a time. Is there a way to select all of my mail and just make a new group from that?

One of Andreas Amann's Mailscripts will do the address harvesting - I don't know if it puts them in a group.

Synch new contacts from Address Book no longer works.

My iphone will no longer synch new contacts in my Address Book on my Mac. It was working fine and then I loaded too much audio content and ran out of memory so I think it could not synch properly without memory available. I've since deleted all my audio and have plenty of space yet new contacts in Address Book do not show up on my iPhone even though the synch process appears to complete. Any ideas?

I hope you are doing this over wifi, if you are not then you may have exceeded your monthly data limit, but I doubt that's the problem. All I can say is that Address Book will be getting refurbished soon, and according to Apple, it will be far more simple to transfer data between iOS and Macs.

How many in the group? Some ISP's have a restriction on that. Check with your ISP.

Smart Groups in Address Book not syncing to Contacts

I have a couple of Smart Groups in Address Book on my primary Mac, and I sync Address Book with Contacts on my iPhone 4 through MobileMe.
Today, I noticed that, under Groups in Contacts on the iPhone 4, these Smart Groups do NOT show up. How can I make these Smart Groups on the Mac to sync and show up in Contacts on the iPhone 4?

I just found an answer myself: https://discussions.apple.com/message/4902780#4902780
