Partial Address Book Synchronisation with N95

I have over 1500 addresses in my Outlook, but I only want to synchronise a portion of those that I have categorised as 'Phone'. Is there any way to select a specific address category to synchronise with?
Rgds,
Jason.

Address Book sync with .Mac

I've done my Address Book sync with my .Mac in System Preferences. But the new addresses/changes don't show up when I go to email or look up the names from a web client.
Am I missing somethings?

Got it.

Is Address book compatible with Outlook

Hi,
I'm usine Msft Outlook at my office to handle emails. Is the Mac Address Book compatible with Outlook as for imports/exports so that I can update my contacts from office and vice versa?
Thx

Hi,
Address Book "should" sync with an OWA server... I never got it to work, but some colleagues of mine do...
I (mis)use Entourage to do the syncing from time to time (hate the app though), and I also use AddressX from Snerdware to sync Exchange's GAL...

"...cannot use the application "Address Book.app" with 'leopard.'...????

I get the message: "You cannot use the application “Address Book.app” with this version of Mac OS X. "What does this mean, wat do I do? Do I lose my address book.?

you can do the following to transfer your Tiger addressbookdata file to Leopard if none of your other countermeasures are working.
Create a new folder and give it a name such as TigertoLeopard data or whatever;
then drag your Tiger addressbook data file into that folder;
add .abbu to the end of the name you gave that new folder;
remember where you placed the folder and use Leopard Mail import command.

My MacBook Pro will not sync address book changes with my IPhone. Why? It used to.

Then you may have to try manually resetting the syncservices folder by following Julian Write's post (from https://discussions.apple.com/message/9274781#9274781):
Ok, as you can't reset SyncServices in the "normal" way, you'll have to resort to the "other" way:
Although it's not advised to do so in normal circumstances, you'll need to manually delete the SyncServices folder.
Before doing so, you MUST make a backup of both your Contacts and Calendars:
In Address Book, choose *Export > Address Book Archive...* from the File menu.
In iCal, choose *Back up iCal...* from the File menu.
Then, make a backup of the SyncServices folder located at:
~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
By backing everything up first, you don't risk losing anything.
Finally delete the aforementioned SyncServices folder and restart the Mac. This will force Mac OS X to recreate the SyncServices folder, and hopefully fix your problem.
I believe in Snow Leopard you can back up your calendar in File>Export>iCal Archive rather than File>Back up iCal as posted above.

Deleting Address Book Notes with Automator

I imported all my contacts from Yahoo and now there's a bunch of jibberish under all my contacts notes...well most of them. Is there anything I can run from automator to delete all notes from all contacts? I don't need any notes. Thanks!

paste the following into AppleScript Editor (it's in /Applications/Utilities) and press "run".
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;

overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
tell application "Address Book"
repeat with per in people
set note of per to ""
save
end repeat
end tell</pre>
Note: it might take a while for it to finish working if you have a lot of contacts.

Syncing Address Book contacts with iPod

I know some people will think this post should be in the iPod forum but I have realised that it is not my iPod beccasue I tried using a different iPod and the same problem happened. Anyway...the problem is that when I choose to sync Address Book contacts with iPod it comes up with this message:
No contacts available
Contact syncinig cannot be enabled because there are no contacts available. Do you want to open Address Book and create contacts now?
And gives me the options: Cancel and Open Address Book
I have tried deleting several different preferences for iTunes, Address Book and iSync (just incase).
I don't know what else to do, I know I can manually add my contacts by exporting them all as a vCard but it would be so much easier if iTunes could do it. Please help if you know anything!

I've got Calenders syncing again, not sure how I did it. I deleted the one of the folders in /Users/Alex/Library/Application Support/SyncServices/Local/clientdata/
I found that in each folder there is a clientname.txt file with the name of what data is in the folder e.g. iCal, Safari, Keychain, Mail.
I deleted the iCal one and iTunes seems to be syncing it now. So I looked for a folder with Address Book in the clientname.txt file but there wasn't one. I am wondering whether that's the reason!

Error Code 0x82bc1095 trying to map folders in Address Book synching with MS Outlook 2003 SP3t

Help please. My BB Curve 8900 OS v5 has suddenly stopped synchronising with my MS Outlook 2003 SP3. It gets as far as address book then stops, giving error message " One or more configured folders is not availablr. Update mapping field and try again". Configuring my organiser, when I click on a tab I get another message saying "No available Message stores". I click on OK and get the tabbed page opern but the mapping folders field is empty and greyed out.
If I click on Map Fields, I get another error message "Error encountered. Error code 0x82bc1095"
No synchronisation takes place at all.
I am far from technically minded, say about one step above being a Luddite. Can anyone please advise me?

Thanks for your suggestion, but things have moved since then. I tried swapping my mapisvc by changing the extension to 'old' and running the repair, but this did not recreate a mapisvc.inf file, so I changed the extension back to inf. I also uninstalled Outlook Connector as other threads have suggested.
However another thread suggested resetting the organiser using the reset settings button. I did this, but the DTM will not now let me set up synchronisation with my Outlook. Outlook is shown as an option, along with Yahoo and ASCII.
It just lets me go through the process but does not produce a tick in the appropriate box at the end.
I did tell it to synch with Yahoo to see if it would take and it does, but when I try to change it to Outlook it does not register the change (leaving it as Yahoo). I have to select 'none' to clear the tick.
You can probably tell that I'm useless at this sort of thing and I'm getting very frustrated with the whole thing. I've had numerous problems ever since I upgraded the device software. I think that if I ever get this working again, I will not do anything else.
Hope you can help an old duffer and thanks again for your input.

Address book synchronising between several Macs

I have the address book for our company on a server. I would like to synchronise address books in both directions.
Example. Computer 1 changes an entry in the address book. I want this to than show up on the server and on computer 2. Same if Computer 2 would make a change.
Is this possible? Any tips as to how to do this?
I noted there is a sync possibility with a .Mac account. This we do not have. I am also not sure if it would be possible to do with a .Mac account, but would prefer a solution that would not involve a .Mac account.
Any ides or suggestions?
Thanks

Take a look at MySync. This application exactly replicates the .Mac Sync experience for all six data types without the requirement for a .Mac account:

It's a locally installed and controlled client-server—or, probably more correctly, master-slave—environment with support for Rendezvous and both intranet and internet-wide data transfers.

Address book oddities with iPhone 4S, Lion & MacBook?

Maybe this is an iPhone issue, but: Have any of you been having problems with losing addresses out of Address book both on the latest versions of Lion, MacBooks and iPhones? I've been very successfully using an iPhone 3 and earlier versions of the OS, but when I upgraded to both a new 4S and MacBook i7, I've been plagued with address book entries showing up fine on the Macbook Pro but not on the iPhone after a sync. I'm NOT using iCloud yet, but this has become frequent and frustrating. I've even tried overwriting during Sync my entire iPhone address book with the one from my laptop, but I still can't get some of my contacts to show up on the iPhone. For example, all my family members with the same name as I am, do not show up on the phone after syncing with the laptop, where I can see them fine. It's very frustrating. After the latest sync, all my 'favorites' on the iPhone have vanished.
I see that others have had this problem in the past with MobileMe. But I'm not using either that or iCloud. iCloud is only being used for 'Find my iPhone". Nothing else.
Any suggestions? Or do you need more info?

Just an update, I reset my phone to factory defaults, reloaded everything, and the problem still continues, albeit with less entries vanishing. Also, I still have no problems on my Macbook that this is syncing to. So is anyone else experiencing lost address book entries on iPhone 4S?

Outlook 2013 Not Responding and Offline Address Book Issues with Office 365

Around 3 months ago I setup a small business with Office 365 for email. They have 10 PCs, all running newly installed Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, eight with Office 2013 and two with Office 2010. All are connected to a local domain (Server Essentials
2012) with a single internet connection through a new TP-LINK router. Each user logs into their own PC only.
The network runs perfectly, internet connection is good but there seems to be RANDOM, INTERMITTENT issues with email not being SENT from Outlook every so often. Email will sit in the outbox for up to an hour sometimes before, eventually, being sent. Incoming
email seems ok, although this is more difficult to tell. At others times, email will be sent instantly - the size of the message and any attachments makes no difference.
The issue has happened at some point on every one of the PCs but no particular PC/user seems worse than any other. When email is stuck on one user's PC it can still be sent ok by other users at the same time - so the internet connection is not down. Users can
can always login to the OWA service ok and iPhones etc. all sync ok even when email is stuck in the Outbox.
To debug the issue I have worked on one particular user's PC and carried out the following changes -
Changes that made no difference
I have checked the router. A SPI firewall is available on the router but this is switched off.
I have changed the MTU on the router with no effect.
There are no unsual add-ins to Outlook
Outgoing email virus scanning is disabled
Outlook is NOT integrated with Lync
The OST file is around 1.7 GBytes is size.
I have recreated the Outlook profile twice but this made no difference
Switched OFF "Cached Exchange Mode" - this made things worse !
The Outlook address book is set to \Offline Global Address List
I have disabled with Windows firewall on the client PC - no change
I have adjusted the KeepAliveTime for packets in the registry of the PC to 20 minutes
Changes that reduced the frequency of "Not Responding"
I have changed the Outlook automatic Send/Receive time from 30 to 10 minutes - this seemed to help
Possible Related Problem
I have attempted to download the offline address book manually - this hangs at "Copying offline address book template file" in the Send/Receive dialog and there a NO OAB files in the data file location on the PC.
So the only measure that has so far "helped" has been the Outlook Send/Receive time change - now set to 10 minutes. Even so, Outlook will occasionally go "Not Responding" for 30 minutes or more (no windows active - only option
is to close and reopen Outlook).
There does seem to be a problem with the Offline Address book. I can download this ok for this user on my home PC (Outlook 2010) but this will not download manually on the work pc with Outlook 2013 (despite following all the debug steps above).
On work PC I can see literally hundreds of "Schannel" errors in the Windows System event logs -
Error - Event 36888 Schannel
The following fatal error was generated :10
The internal error state is 10
These errors occur every 2-4 minutes continually all the time Outlook is running. When Outlook is closed the "Schannel" errors stop !
Can anyone suggest what else to try, please ?
I have already investigated this issue on the Office 365 Community Forum, and the Outlook forum and they suggested that it was a client (i.e Outlook) issue and that I should post here for further information.
Thanks for reading !

An update to this problem.
I brought one of the office PCs back to my home network and connected it up there. With no changes to the PC I was immediately able to download the Offline Address Book without errors.
This suggests to me that there must be some problem with the internet connection or router setup in the office environment.
The router is a TP-LINK W8970. The internet connection is PPPoA. I have seen some suggestion that an SPI firewall can cause issues. This router has an SPI firewall but this feature is disabled on the router.
While investigating this issue I have frequently been connected remotely to an office PC - sometimes for up to an hour or more. During these periods I have not experienced any connection dropouts so the actual internet connection seems to be ok (i.e. it is
not dropping out).
However, something seems to be preventing the Outlook client from connecting properly with the Office 365 Exchange server in the office environment - or something is dropping the connection to Outlook. Does anyone know of any router settings that might affect
this ?
I could try changing the office router but I do not have a spare available. Can anyone suggest a reasonably low cost, currenbtly available router that they know definitely works in the Office 365 environment so that I could buy this for test purposes ?

Address book sync with 10.7.3 server - problem

I have an 10.7.3 server to that I have 4 Macs, 2 iPhones and 1 iPad connected.
I have enabeld Address book and iCal on the server, this works (after much headache). It works great for all devices except one of the Macs.
It has recently been updated to 10.7.3 and it refuses with no apperent reason to sync against the servers address book.
iCal works fine.
No matter what account I use the address book never syncs, orc teh activity spinner starts at the given time.
Spins for a while and the goes away.
Anyone has any clues?
The logs on the server doesnt have any kind of suggestion what could be wrong.

Have you tried rebuilding the accounts in SystemPrefs>Mail, Contacts and Calendars?
Are the machines bound to the directory?
Try setting it up in a fresh account on the broken Mac.
Try setting it up on a different Mac.
Hope this helps,
Brian

Address book sync with Google broken?

I've been having a hard time getting the address book to sync cleanly with my Gmail account. I'm using a standard Gmail account (not Google Apps), which seems to be supported. I set this up by going into the address book preferences, checking the box for "Synchronize with Google" and putting in my username/password. It seems to accept the login information.
At first, I wasn't able to get it to sync at all, even when I manually clicked the sync button on the menu bar. Sometimes, when I would go back into preferences, the "Synchronize with Google" box would be unchecked. So I'd check it again, then a few minutes later it would be unchecked again.
Somebody suggested also setting it up to sync with a Yahoo! account, so I tried that and it worked. Once I configured it to sync with a Yahoo! account, it successfully sync'd to my Gmail account.
However, it still doesn't work a lot of the time. Sometimes it syncs, sometimes it doesn't. I don't get any error messages, it just doesn't do anything. And sometimes I still go back into preferences and find the box unchecked again.
I've also found a problem where after my initial sync with Gmail, it detected two conflicts, but I can't seem to resolve them. When I click "Review conflicts now" nothing happens. Then when I sync again, I'm told there are two conflicts. But I'm never shown what those conflicts are, and the "Review conflicts now" option never seems to work.
Gmail syncing works perfectly on my iPhone using Activesync, but it hardly works at all on OSX which is really strange and frustrating.

Address Book sync with Google

I updated my system software to 10.6.4 when the upgrade was released recently and have run into a strange glitch. My Address Book had been set up to sync with Google (in Preferences>Accounts) in previous versions of the software, and it worked without a hitch. After the system software upgrade, however, the sync no longer works. When I check the box next to 'Synchronize with Google', update an address, and then quit, the Address Book forgets the preference and unchecks the box. The result is that when I restart Address Book and go to the preferences, the Google sync box is unchecked.
I've searched around various help forums looking for a fix to this, but have yet to find any workaround.

I'd like to know if it is possible to sync Personal Address book with lotus notes?
Or there are Ip phone services that can query address book of lotus notes?
Regards
