SMS in Address Book

What happend to SMS in Address Book, I sure miss it !!
Please bring it back in 10.5.1, thanks.

Well, I can tell you that many thousands of Sony Ericsson phone owners use it because thousands are using Feisar's "Address Book Enabler", which now no longer works with Leopard.
Then there's also all the owners of natively supported phones, plus the users of nova media's Address Book Phone Plugins.
So, I would say that yes, many people did use it.
However, the lack of response is probably more to do with the fact that Leopard's only been out a few hours, not everyone who upgraded will have noticed yet, and not everyone has upgraded anyway.

  • Apple script to send SMS via address book.

    I've pair my mobile with my Mac and can send sms through address book but can i create a script to do this automactically?

    Well, yes and no. Address Book's scripting dictionary knows nothing about SMS, so you can't do it through Address Book. You could conceivably use GUI scripting, but I think that would be a pain. There is a scriptable utilty from SMS MAC which looks if it might do the job - if you decide to try it I would be interested in hearing how you get on.

  • E71: Sending SMS from Address Book (Mac OS 10.4.11...

    Is anyone using an E71 with a Mac?
    It is supposedly possible to send an SMS from within Mac's Address Book, but I can't successfully do this despite the two gadgets having been paired and the Bluetooth icon appearing in the Address Book top bar.
    Do I need a plug-in or something?
    Thanks.

    I don't think it's possible. I have the iSync plugin from Nokia (http://www.nokia.com.au/A4630409) and that's just for syncing your contacts between your E71 and Address Book as well as your calendar events. As for the feature you're looking for regrettably that's not available.

  • S700i and send sms from Address Book.

    Hi,
    I done a search for an answer but didn't find anything.
    Is it possible when in Address Book in osx 10.4.3 to select a mobile phone number and 'send sms'?
    This used to work but now doesn't.
    Is there anything I can do to fix this?
    Thanks.
    Lel

    It works for me. I have an Nokia 8800 paired via bluetooth.
    Right click/control click on the phone number, and the option to send an SMS is there.
    It only works with the phone paired though. Make sure the Bluetooth button in Address Book is coloured blue.

  • SMS from Address Book with Motorola e815?

    I have a Motoroloa e815 phone with Verizon. No trouble syncing via iSync. But when I try to pair my phone in Address Book to send SMS messages, it doesn't work. When I click on the pair button, I get a message asking me to enter a passkey for the phone. I do so and click OK. The window says "paired successfully", but when it takes me back to Address Book, the "paired" button is still grey. If I click it again it just takes me through the same process.
    Is something wrong, or is this just a problem with e815 compatibility?

    I just spent a better part of the afternoon talking to both AppleCare tech support and verizon wireless. And, as one might guess, the folks at Apple, while being sympathetic pointed to the real culprit: Verizon. Unfortunately, I was not able to ascertain from Apple if Address Book used OBEX or the Object Push Profile to display call information, SMS et al. What they did say, after much searching, was "Your carrier is blocking those features on the handset"
    Then it was time to call Verizon. they were less then helpful -- big shock there.
    I received conflicting information from the upwards of 5 people i talked to. One said Verizon will never allow bluetooth data transfers, and another said the have new handsets coming out (when, they never said) that would allow for data/file transfers. But as of now, they do not support data transfers and told me it wasn't possible. I reminded the agent that data was already being transfered every time i sync my phone over iSync and he was confused... saying it should only be possible via a USB cable.
    I can't wait till my contract with verizon is over. Gonna give the whole GSM thing a try....

  • SMS from Address Book stopped working

    I often use AB to sent SMS messages via bluetooth and my mobile phone. I went to do it this morning, and the SMS Message (and Dial) is greyed and not selectable. AB's Bluetooth icon is showing and blue, and claims to be connected to my phone. "Use with Address Book" is still selected in the Bluetooth mobile phone setup.
    What might have changed? What have I broken?

    The problem has gone away, with no definite resolution. See discussion in the bluetooth forum.

  • SMS from Address Book

    I have paired my Nokia E60 without any problems, and it sync perfect, but when I tried to send a SMS from within the Address Book to a mobile phone and no way, it ask for pairing again ...
    Any idea?
    Ragdrs,

    Apple haven't updated Address Book for SMS and Call functions for years.
    You'll need to enable that functionality within Address Book, using a third party tool.
    For Nokia phones you can use and for Sony Ericsson phones a cheaper option is the Sony Ericsson Address Book Enabler.

  • Sms to address book

    Hi
    Could somebody tell me how to transfer an SMS phone number to my address/phone book?
    Thanks

    With the SMS chat open, scroll up to the number, press the Menu key > Add to contacts.
    Alternatively, scroll to the number in the chat, press and hold the shift key while scrolling across the number to select the entire number > Menu > copy.
    Now, go to your Address Book and create a new contact and paste that number in.

  • SMS with Address book

    How do I get this working? Thanks!
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad1056.html

    I agree this is a much missed feature which should not have been removed. However I am actually finding the workround to be easier to use than Addressbook. Go to *http://algoritmer.dk/widget/* and download the emitSMS widget.
    It reads the numbers from your AddressBook without it being open and works fine for me. The only lost feature is received SMS do not display on screen.
    Hope this helps

  • Using Address Book to send SMS via Bluetooth

    Hi all,
    I recently upgraded to 10.4.6 (from 10.4.5) to take advantage of the new iSync support for the Nokia N70.
    (I had previously been using a modified Metaclasses.plist hack for this and prior to the upgrade to .6, restored the original .plist)
    I also followed the advice in Apple article 303419 about removing the phone from iSync.
    So, upgrade fine and re paired phone with iSync but now find that I can no longer use Address Book to send SMS message or dial a call to current contact.
    This worked fine with the hack!
    Any ideas?

    I am using OS X10.4.6 via Bluetooth connecting to Nokia N70 also. I have no problem with iSync and file transfer. But I can NOT send and receive SMS from Address book.

  • Address Book SMS and Motorola ROKR

    I have recently updated to 10.4.6 and have synced addresses and calendars successfully. When syncing I did and erase and replace to the phone and all synced fine. Now....
    It seems to be a common problem on the forums that you can not use the SMS from address book. Is that correct and is there anything to do that can correct this.
    Also when I now try to text using the phone the phone hangs and the sendto option is greyed out, so I can not text and have to take the battery out to get the phone back. Does anyone know what has happened or experienced this?

    I haven't tried with a ROKR, I have with a RAZR. With the the RAZR the feature is not available with Address Book. But there are 3rd party options.

  • New SMS text not going directly to address book

    In my messages folder, when I select  "Compose SMS Text" the options are limited to Phone or Email, and not my address book. I did not change any settings, this just appeared out of the blue. Could anyone here help?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm a little confused by your statement, could you try and re-phrase it please
    In the meantime, try a Battery Pull:
    1. Remove the battery while phone is turned on
    2. Wait a few seconds before inserting it again
    3. Allow the long boot up process to finish (takes a few minutes usually)
    This clears most software issues that occur on blackberries from time to time. You could also use Quickpull, a free app that simulates a battery pull without physically removing the battery: http://software.crackberry.com/product.asp?id=27660
    A battery pull reclaims memory lost during application usage and clears minor software errors that creep in over time. The blackberry runs an OS just like your PC runs windows and the battery pull is the equivalent of a reboot/restart on your computer.

  • SMS - Sending to numbers not in your address book and inserting smiley faces

    Hi
    I'm new to the world of Blackberry and sorry if this has been posted elsewhere - I've trawled through and can't find anything similiar.
    When composing SMS messages, I can only send to those people who are in my address book as the address book automatically opens when you select compose SMS.
    Obviously there are times when you need to text to numbers not in your address book so how do you do it?
    So far the only solution I have got is to add numbers to my address book and then delete them.  Surely there must be a way you can just enter the number manually when you need to?
    Secondly is there a shortcut on the Blackberry Pearl to insert smiley faces in SMS messages without entering :-) manually?
    Thanks for your help

    I love my Blackberry

    You right. I misread. Hitting the SYM key is only for messenger, not for SMS. I didn't anyway to insert emoticons into an SMS message
