Since updating to 10.7.4 the 'search' no longer works in Address Book.

Search no longer works in Address Book since I updated the MAC software to 10.7.4.
Is there a 'fix' ?

I'm having the same problem. In addition, not only would the Search feature not work, but while in a view with list on left, card on right, clicking on a contact in the list would not bring up that contact's card on the right. Double clicking on the contact in the list, however, would bring up the card in a separate window.
First, I exported my Address book and saved the Archive to my desktop (Address Book - 07-25-2012.abbu). I then went to the iCloud System Preferences and deselected Address Book, then re-selected it. The test revealed the problem was still there. I then deleted all my cards (I didn't know how to do this except to drag down through all the contacts on the list on the left and hit delete) and the Contacts list was then empty.
I tried File>Import, chose my backup file, and the list of contacts returned, but not the contact cards. Still couldn't search either.
I quit Address Book and from the Go menu in the Finder, selected Go To Folder and pasted in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook. This is what I got:
Because the next instruction was Restore the folder that opens from the backup you made before you started, and because no folder opened, I didn't know what to do.
So I went to my desktop, double clicked on the backup file, and got this:
I chose Replace All, and the Contacts List reappeared, but there were still no cards, and Search still didn't work.
So, I think I tried all your suggestions, but I'm back at square one. If you have any other work arounds I would appreciate help in solving this problem.

HT2486 Searching doesn't work in Address Book (Mac OS X Lion), can someone help?

I've repeatedly tried resetting Spotlight and deleting AddressBook-v22.abcddb, to no avail.
What happens is I type a name in the text search box and get absolutely no response.
Help?

Back up all data.
In Address Book, select File ▹ Export... ▹ Address Book Archive... and save the archive to your Desktop.
If you use iCloud, disable contact synchronization in the iCloud preference pane. When prompted, select Delete From Mac. Re-enable synchronization. Wait for the contacts to re-synchronize, then test.
If you don't use iCloud, or if the contacts fail to synchronize, delete all contacts from Address Book, then select File ▹ Import... and import the archive you created. It may take a few seconds for the contacts to be indexed. Test.
If you don't like the results of this procedure, quit Address Book. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook
Restore the folder that opens from the backup you made before you started.

Why search doesn't work in address book ?

Hello, I'm new on this forum and have 3 questions about AddressBook:
I use AddressBook 6.1 on a imac 3.1Ghz i5, macos 10.7.3. I have more than 2'000 adresses on my icloud account
1) I use two accounts on Address Book: first is my own icloud account and second is my company's one, which is on an AppleServer.
When I type a name in the search field, nothing happens... ?
2) Is it possible to get the old appearance (as it was on macos10.6) of Address Book? I find this new look difficult to read.
3) Is it possible to get each account on AddressBook with a different color or sign, so that it would be possible to know visually which address is on which account and vice versa ?
Thanks

Jono,
Eliminate the possibility of a corrupt plist (preference) file. Quit Address Book, find the com.apple.AddressBook.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder, drag it to the Desktop, log out/in or restart and let us know what happens.

Since upgrading to Mavericks, my Canon MP980 printer no longer works. I've tried deleting the printer and adding it again. the process ends with my mac saying the software is not currently available from the software update server.

Since upgrading to Mavericks, my Canon MP980 printer no longer works. I've tried deleting the printer and adding it again. I've downloaded the driver software from Canon. My Mac dropbox tells me "the selected printer software is available from Apple", but when I click to download it, the process ends with my mac saying the software is not currently available from the software update server.

Open Finder and click on Go > Go to Folder. Then type
/Library/Printers/Canon
and press Enter. This will show the BJPrinter and iJScanner folders. You could try moving or trashing this folder and then installing the driver that you downloaded from Canon again.

Since updating my windows 7 to the latest version, my itouch notes are not synchronising - any suggestions?

Since updating my windows 7 to the latest version, my itouch notes are not synchronising properly. Will only update from Outlook to Itouch but not the other way round. Any suggestions?

That's the problem. You keep restoring corrupt software. Restore as NEW and don't use the backup at all. Set the phone up from scratch.

Firefox used to download with Speed download along with other browsers, but since updating to version 6.0.2 it no longer does so; OS Z 10.6.8 and Speed Download v 5.2.28; what do I need to adjust and how, to get it working 'in the team' again, please?

I have had problems with Safari and OS 10.6.8 (I think caused by Apple getting ready for Lion!) but after a lot of uninstalling etc I now have Safari, Camino and Chrome (all most recent versions) automatically sending downloads to Speed Download.
Speed Download Plugin v 2.1.5 is installed; I do not know what or where to adjust or reset to get Firefox letting its downloads be picked up automatically once again like the other three browsers.

Lightning is a problem for you because it hooks into Thunderbird at a low level and you need a version compiled for the platform Thunderbird is running on. So you can't do the preferred solution, which is to put your whole profile in a shared folder and have both instances of Thunderbird reference the same profile. (Ditto for Enigmail). Lightning may become an integral part of Thunderbird in an upcoming release, at which point this limitation due to Lightning should disappear.
And if you can't use a shared profile, you can't set your Lightning, or your Address Book, to share a common set of files. Put another way, the linkage from Thunderbird to its address book files and calendar data is hard-coded, and not exposed where we can adjust it. :-(
The halfway house is to place your mail stores in a shared place, and use the Local Directory setting in each account's settings to connect to it. They don't need to be in the profile; what's more important in your case is that they are in a folder accessible to both operating systems.
Look in your profile; everything under Mail and ImapMail needs to be moved out to a shared folder. Note the entries in Thunderbird under Local Directory before you do this, and reconstruct those pathnames in Thunderbird, but adjusted to suit their new locations.
(You can see here that you need to make many adjustments, one per account, in each instance of Thunderbird, so it's a high-maintenance solution and this is why we don't recommend it when the alternative, moving the whole profile, is possible.)
I share address books and calendars between Thunderbirds on various computers (and my phone and tablet) by syncing to something in the cloud; Google Contacts and Google Calendar are my choices, using gContactSync and CalDav.
Having made the break myself some years ago, I'd recommend you break away from Windows. ;-)

Since latest Thunderbolt Firmware update, most of my third party programs no longer work, is there a way I can fix this?

Since the latest update, most of my third party apps no longer work, none of my photo software, torrent programs, open office, NOTHING!! It is most frustrating - is there a way to 'downgrade' and go back to a previous version of the firmware, or am I just stuck with no apps that work?

They just don't open, and i get an error message like this:

since updating and restoring my iphone 3gs it no longer can find my sim itunes cant activate it because no sim inserted can anyone help

That usually means the phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock the phone and when you update the phone it locked back up again.
Only way to resolve this issue, is to find out who the orignal carrier was and have them unlock it. If you bought this from a 3rd party contact the seller and have him/her unlock it for you by contacting the phone carrier.

My ipad air was bought and activated AFTER September 1st (activated December 25th) and I downloaded pages, keynote and numbers. I then changed my Apple ID as the password no longer worked, These apps had to be deleted as I needed to update them. Now I cannot get the free version on my ipad. I have searched the internet to see if there is a solution, and I found a few but unfortunately none have worked. I desperately need these apps as my iPad is used for school.

Mac Mail Version 6.0 (1486) has stopped recieving mesages regularly and the search doesn't work

Mac Mail Version 6.0 (1486) has stopped recieving mesages regularly and the search doesn't work.
Since installing Mountain Lion, Mail seems to be very unresponsive. I have mac mail running on an iMac (which works fine) and a 2012 MacbookPro which is the one having the issues with the Mail app. Both computers are running on Mountian Lion.
When I scroll up in Mail for instance, the frame rate drops to about 5 a second.
When I click on a message it doesn't display it in the preview pane. Which is very annoying!
But I can get around the issue by double clicking on a message and it opens up the message in a new window.
When I search for a message, nothing appears in the results. Even if Im searching for something that is defiently there, eg if I type in my name, you'd think some results would come up. But when I click on something else, the results dispaly for about half a second. Bizarre. Is anyone else having this problem?

what kind of error in browser you are seeing?
is search service application never starterd or its started but cannot crawl?
did you see the timer jobs related to search services and what's their status?
so what about the search results from site collection?
also make sure this service "SharePoint Search Host Controller Service" started on all servers in the farm.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Windows could not start the Sharepoint Search Host Controller Service on Local Computer. Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly.

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
- Press the home button when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time?

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time - then I have to repeat this again! Any help appreciated.

I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!

Since updating to 10.7.4 the 'search' no longer works in Address Book.
