Really really annoying problem with slooooow Adress Book

I have a really, really annoying problem with Address Book.
Ever since I connected it with the MobileMe service it has this problem, and I just cant get rid of it. I have tried logging out and back into the MobileMe service, resetting the sync history etc., but to no avail.
Each time I open the application it freezes for about 5 to 10 seconts, then that blooming annoying, Windows reminiscent, rotating rainbow circle appears for about a minute at a time. Then it goes away and the application works..........that is until try something demanding like adding a new group or changing a group name, then it starts over. It is making the Address Book almost unusable and very un-Mac-like.
Can someone please help???

Try deleting this plist:
(yourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
As well, the general approach at this time is to ask if you've checked for any problematic fonts (all languages) with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Find and remove all duplicates also.
Start there to be sure all fonts that are in play come out with a clean bill of health.
Also, don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
By all means be sure your 3rd party apps are Snow Leopard compatibl

  • A really annoying problem with a button/movie clip

    I am having a problem with a button! its driving me insane
    because i managed to do it last week, but that was by chance and
    now i can't remember how i did it!
    I can get the button (i'm using gelright from the common
    libraries panel) and convert it to a movie clip(by pressing F8) and
    even attach a behaviour but when i play the movie it doen't work!
    when i move the curser over the button it changes into a hand, but
    will not act like a button, even though i have set the behaviour to
    'on release, go to and play keyframe 2'.
    Please help me, for the sake of my laptop goin through the
    wall!

    ok - you are running yourself around in circles - why did you
    delete it to the stage only to add it
    again? once you converted it to a movie clip, you had what
    you wanted on the stage - but then you
    deleted it and dragged another instance of the same symbol
    back onto the stage - there's no reason
    to do that.

    Right - this is expected because yoyu are now inside the
    movie clip timeline - not the button timeline.
    > When i double clicked on it again, it brought up the
    right headings (top, down,
    > over, etc),
    Right - because by double clicking the button symbol you were
    then brought to "edit mode" for the
    button symbol.
    but there were about 5 layers that showed the different
    layers for
    > the original button.
    Huh? What "5 layers"? What do you mean "original" button -
    per your description there has only ever
    been 1 button you have been working with.
    > I think i have to add the button to each of the
    headings, bt there is no room,
    Lost you completely now - what do you mean add the button to
    each heading? I have no clue what you mean.

    Still losing you here.

    That's because you are applying a behavior for a button to a
    movie clip instead.
    I think you went wrong when you converted the button to a
    movie clip - i have no idea why you did
    that or why to think your button needs to be in a movie clip.

    I just think you don't understand how timelines, symbols or
    buttons work yet in flash.
    1. drag a button to the stage.
    2. select it and open the Behaviors panel (dont double click
    it to edit it).
    3. add your actions.
    4. test movie.

  • Problems with iCal, Adress Book, Pages and System Preferences

    Hi,
    No less. Two days ago, I noticed that iCal crashed immediately after I open it, but as I was in an hurry, didn't take attention to that. After that, I forgot completely the issue. Till today, when I discovered that Pages opens a file but immediately after that it don't respond to any command and "Force Quit" report the program as "Not Responding". The same happens with Text Edit. I investigated a little and discovered that Adress Book and System Preferences also crashes immdiately when opens. In the last case, it only happens with certain options: for instance, iCloud, Mails, Contacts & Calendars. A little more research showed me that this only happens within my administrator account (my wife and kid accounts don't have from this problem). This is also the account that I use to synchronize with my Ipad and Iphone. On the other hand, my MacBook with the same OS and almost the same programs works fine.
    Any ideas about what can be the cause of this issue?
    Thanks!

  • Connecting via Airport express: really annoying problem

    I've got a really annoying problem that doesn't make much sense. Have an airport express and my network seems to work OK mostly. My iBook can always connect, never any problem. My eMac however is behaving bizzarely. The longer I'm connected, the worse my connection gets. Until it stops working altogether and I can't access the internet at all. System preferences tells me the Airport card is on, but is not connected to a network. Can still connect to it with the iBook.
    Shut down, leave it a good while (a good while too, a short shut down doesn't do it), and it works again.
    I can't even think where to start looking, all I can think of is that I have a problem with the Airport card in the eMac (something getting hot in there perhaps). Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    I'm pretty sure the card is seated properly (it works most of the time after all). I couldn't get it to work when I installed it because it wasn't seated properly, I pushed it in as far as it could possibly go and it has worked since (except after extended periods of use). The Airport express is three feet from the eMac with only a couple of bits of wood between them. The connection does not go down at times which I can link with the use of any particular appliances (When the eMac stops working, the iBook is always fine, even in a similar position). It is the apparently time-dependent aspect that I can't figure out (I only notice it on those, fairly infrequent, occasions when I am online for a few hours at a time). The eMac discussion group is a good tip. Ta.

  • A really annoying problem!!!

    Alright guys, I got an annoying problem with my mac.
    The text formatting is on many occasions all wrong like this:
    http://users.pandora.be/solid_raven/vb1.jpg
    Another thing is, the sound fails me, but not in itunes and stuff but only in flash files, games etc. Really annoying!
    I did a complete format before but after a couple of days this came up again.
    Anyone know what to do about it?
    Ty!

    I'm not sure about the text problem (although sometimes it can be to do with the website itself, I think), but the sound problem sounds like something that happened to me a while ago. Go to Applications>Utilities>Audio MIDI Setup and look where it says "Audio Output" - there'll be a box for "Format". Check the Hz number it says; ensure that it says 44100.0 Hz. If you find that it did not say 44100.0 Hz your problem is one of the programs you use. Some programs, e.g. Audacity (that's the one that caused my problem), change that level to one that is too high - this causes the sound problems you described. Once you've found out which program it is you can either avoid using it or change the level back to 44100.0 Hz after every use.

  • Really having problems with organising documents in pages. For example, deleting pages deletes the whole section and I cannot insert a section break as its greyed out & sending an object to background deletes several pages - what the **** is going on???

    Really having problems with organising documents in pages. For example, deleting pages deletes the whole section and I cannot insert a section break as its greyed out & sending an object to background deletes several pages and trying to insert a text box autmatically creates new pages- what the **** is going on??? Is this programme really this badly thought out? I thought everything apple was supposed to be intuitive!?!?!? Help.

    You can not insert a section break into a textbox.
    You appear to have a lot of objects with wrap set, that once you take them out of the flow of text (by sending them to the background) causes the text to reflow and contract into fewer pages. Pages is almost unique in the way it forms up pages in Word Processing mode only so long as there is text on them.
    I suspect you probably have hammered away at returns, spaces and tabs as well to position things, which only works to add to the mess.
    Download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf available under the Help menu and swot up a bit on how it works.
    You may find this a usueful resource as well:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/

    PS There is quite a lot of programming in OSX that is far from "intuitive". Pages is easy at one level, when using the templates, otherwise it can be quite frustrating.

  • Strange Problem with Mail & Address Book

    Hi,
    I'm having a strange problem with Mail & Address Book.
    When I go to compose a new message from Mail and hit the Address button (to show my email addresses), it won't launch the contacts window!
    I get this log from console;
    2007-10-15 22:55:59.079 Mail[410] * -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0)
    If I try to launch the Address Book from my Applications folder, it won't open, and it gives me this log from console;

    I tried deleting the preferences, re-installing Address Book, also tried creating a new user, again no luck!
    Can somebody help!!!
    Please?!

    Hi dp13.
    Do you have any Address Book plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Address Book? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/
    To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
    ls -1 /Library/Address\ Book\ Plug-Ins ~/Library/Address\ Book\ Plug-Ins
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.
    <hr>
    Did you also reinstall the appropriate Combo Update after reinstalling Address Book?
    Quit all the applications and verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with the computer:
    About the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update
    Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for PowerPC
    Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for Intel
    After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.
    Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
    Troubleshooting installation and software updates
    Installing software updates
    Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk and back up before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

  • Problem with MP3 audio books - truncating

    My shuffle is truncating the end of each part (track?) of my MP3 audio books. It loses the last one or two sentences. Is there something I can do to fix this?
    I'm using the OverDrive Media Console to borrow books from the library. I have no problem with WMA format books (they appear as audiobooks in the shuffle listing). The MP3 books show up as "Music".
    I'm manually managing music, which is required to transfer audio from OverDrive to my shuffle.
    MC754LL/A iPod shuffle 2 GB
    Model A1373
    software version is 1.0.1

    I use "My Media Mall" (http://www.mymediamall.net) to check out audio books from the library. They come in 2 formats - mp3 & WMA. When I check out a book it downloads to OverDrive Media Console. Then in OverDrive I transfer the book to my shuffle (through the manually mange the storage option). If I then start itunes, I can see what's been downloaded and what all the properties are. By default WMA books are loaded as audiobooks and there is an automatic play list created. The mp3 books are loaded, by default, into the music section.
    Per your original suggestion, I converted the "music" attribute to an "audiobook" attribute, which automatically move the files and created a playlist for the book. It did not stop the truncation problem. I then converted the book back to music, and selected the "gapless album" feature. This has significantly reduced the amount of truncation so that it's gone from a couple of sentences to less than a full sentence.
    If I listen to the book on my computer (windows) through itunes, there are no gaps, and no problem automatically finding the next part to play.
    FYI - each audiobook is made of several parts (usually 8 - 11 for the books I listen to). Each part contains multiple chapters. Some books only break parts over a chapter break, others seem to divide the parts into semi-equal sizes. If in the shuffle I "skip to next track", it starts the next part. The voice-over feature on the shuffle announces each playlist (eg. book1, book2) and then each individual part (book1 part 01, book2 part 02, etc.). Usually when I start a book, I use the voice-over to find the playlist instead of locating a specific part. If I've been listening to the book via itunes, then I'll have to step through the playlist until the second portion where it lists the individual portions.

  • Problems with the address book server! Really need some help here!

    Hello everyone!
    for about some time now, we're having some troubbles with the address book server located on our Mac Pro Server running SL Server. The connected clients somehow show multiple entries of groups, contacts and everything else address book can show. Sometimes you see one group or contact about 20-30 times or even more.
    How can the addressbook server on SL Server be configured that these faults won't show up again. With this present, using address book server is useless. As far as my knowledge goes, I've tried everything I can. I deleted the address book account set up on each client, readded it, but no help. I stopped the address book server on the Mac pro, but no help either.
    For your further information: we're connecting 14 clients. Moste of the rum Lion, three run ML and several iDevices connect via WiFi.
    Please help me, as this really is frustrating!
    Looking forward for your help.
    Regards,
    Moritz

  • Help, Really annoying problem,

    when I copy certain tracks to my ipod, they appear 2 times in the ipod listings as in If I copy over 'Since I've been loving you by led zepp' and then click on led zep in the artist listings, there will be two idenical names 'Since I've Been Loving You', like its referencing the same song twice, I'm using a Nano latest firmware, and latest itunes with a macbook, its really annoying,
    Also alot of times songs I send over wont appear under the artist as expected, and they dont even appear under the unknown section, instead the only way to play them is find them in the all songs section, I mean whats that about??
    Thanks in advance,
    John

    A spelling or punctuation mistake, or sometimes a trailing space usually causes this after the artists and/or song name, which fools the iPod into thinking that there are two different artists or songs. The trailing space is the hardest to spot. 

Best way to cure this is to go into iTunes, highlight that artist and/or songs, right click on them and select "get info". 

This brings up the multiple song info window. In the artist or song box retype the name, as you would like it, and then click ok. Do this even if no mistakes are immediately visible.
    

Re sync this new artist/song info to your iPod.
    As for your artist problem, it could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
    To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
    If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
    The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
    You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
    See: Some songs don't don't show under artist on my iPod.

    So yeah, I know, longest post in history, right? This just completely baffles me. To me , going through it, it should work. I even commented out the line where it sets the flag to 0, and it didn't change the outcome. Any insight would be very helpful thanks for even reading this far.

    Do yourself a favor -- repost with code tags.Oh, thanks. Sorry, I'm just really new and quite a bit confused. I don't do well when confused.
