Sync'ing Address Book groups to .Mac when running 10.4.11

I cannot seem to find the appropriate setting in the Address Book (10.4.11) or .Mac to allow for sync'ing of a Group. All the Apple Support Docs I've run across reference iSync, which is no longer applicable in this situation. Any pointers/redirection are appreciated. TIA...

  • HT1296 I have the original iPhone and I can't sync the address book from my Mac to the iPhone. What should be the problem and can I sync?

    I have the original iPhone and I can't sync the address book from my Mac to the iPhone. What should be the problem and can I sync?

    Thanks a lot for the answer. I'm so upset, have no even one contact on my phone. I has to do with the moving to iCloud from MobileMe.
    I did exactly what you wrote, and when trying to click the vcf file on the iPhone the screen freezing, and then after few long seconds it goes alon to home.
    So I tried less contacts in a Vcard, and i'm dividing my address book, doing little by little and it work.
    Thank you so much.
    I still dont get why the sync with my computer address book is not working.
    And why when I moved to icloud all the photos I had next to the contacts are disappered.
    I had my iPad, which it still, I did not move from MobileMe to iCloud and all the photos are there!
    Anything I can do to use the iCloud on the iPad as well and update the iCloud with the photos?

  • HT1351 My fifth generation nano will no longer sync my address book from my Mac. It gives me an error message that "You have no contacts" and asks me if I want to create some.  My address book is full of contacts. Sync works for everything else.

    My 5th generation nano will no longer Sync my address book from my Mac.  It gives me a message that I have no "Contacts", and asks if I want to create some.  My address book is full of contacts, but for some reason it thinks it is empty.  All the other sync operations work fine including iCal.  My Mac is running OS X 10.7.4.

    It sounds like all of your contacts on your Mac running Lion are actually stored up in iCloud. 
    Several users running Mac OS X Lion and now ML (and iCloud) have no longer been able to "sync" contacts over to their older iPods models.
    A work around is to export all of your contacts out of Address Book as vCards and them copy these vCards into your iPod's Contacts folder.  You'll need to have the Enable Disk Use option ticked from under the iPod's Summary tab in order to browse out to the iPod's Contacts folder via the Finder.
    Using your iPod as a storage drive
    That's the only "solution" I have been able to use to get contacts to sync/appear on my 5G iPod Video.

  • Syncing address book groups to .mac account

    Can address groups be syncronized to my address book on my .mac account?

    Hi Matt,
    I'm trying to figure this out also. So far, I haven't been able to figure out how. All contacts are sync'd but not in groups. Hopefully, someone will have a suggestion.

  • How do I sync my address book in my Mac to iPhone instead of my old blackberry

    I stopped using the Backup Assistant over a year ago because it wouldn't backup the email addresses onto my blackberry even though it showed in Backup Assistant.
    Now I got a new iPhone 4S and I want to use my Address Book in my Mac to the iPhone. How do I sync it to my Address Book?
    How does that differ in syncing with iTunes?
    I already have iCloud.
    Should I sync it to iCloud or my Mac Address Book (which really is already synced with iCloud, I think)?
    I'm afraid to activate my iPhone until I have these questions answered.
    Can someone help me?

    I don't have a Mac but on my windows if I go into my phone info on iTunes when plugged in I go to contacts and there are choices to choose from like gmail and windows then sync.  I assume when it's done on a max there is the same option on iTunes. If you go to iCloud.com and sign in you can check to see if your contacts are there. If you activate your phone it won't ruin what you have. It will ask you if you want to back up to what you have if there is anything. If you don't back up you can even if you say start fresh. I would go to an apple store if those things don't check out.

  • How can I get my iphone to sync its address book with my mac?

    I have iCloud configured to sync my address books, but they don't. I have all my contacts on my phone and want to be able to have them put onto my mac. I've never been able to figure this out. I used to have the sync address books setting selected (before iCloud), and it still never synced. I've read other discussions on this and have tried adding a contact to see if it prompts a message about merging contacts come up, but nothing seems to work. I have tried everything it seems. Any help?

    You'll have to use Wi-Fi to sync, Bluetooth is not supported:
    You can use iPhone with the Apple Wireless Keyboard and other Bluetooth devices, such as Bluetooth headsets, car kits, and stereo headphones. Third-party Bluetooth headphones may support volume and playback controls. See the documentation that came with your Bluetooth device. For supported Bluetooth profiles, go to support.apple.com/kb/HT3647
    From the manual: iphone_user_guide 5 page 109
    Use iCloud to keep Contacts up to date on your iOS devices and computers
    Go to Settings > iCloud, then turn on Contacts. See “iCloud” on page 17.

  • Sync address book groups to .Mac?

    I just recently singed up for a .Mac membership. I've sync-ed information to .Mac, but was dissapointed to find that only addresses without the address groups I had made in my local address book were sync-ed. I need these groups, as it will be cumbersome to send an e-mail to a group of people (20+) from my .Mac account.
    Is it possible to also sync groups, or is there any other way around this issue?
    Regards,
    Hall

    Greetings,
    Indeed, .Mac currently does not sync Group designations between your desktop and the online Addressbook.
    The only work around that I am aware of is to create on card that contains a listing of all email addresses in it. Bear in mind, that you must make a comma seperated list of all email addresses that you want to send to and add that list to a new card as if it were one email address. This solution is rather cumbersome to use and difficult to keep up to date.
    It is much simpler to adminster groups and group emails from a desktop email client.
    I suggest that you leave feedback ( go to www.mac.com and locate the link for feedback) to suggest this feature (as I have done as well).
    Also, you may find more accurate support for issues like this in the .Mac section of these Discussion boards rather than the Tiger (OS X) section.

  • BB 9700 - Desktop Manager Crashing when Sync'ing Address Book

    Hi all,
    At work, we use Novell Groupwise. Calendar syncs fine, but BB Desktop Manager crashes when I sync addresses. I can load one-way from the computer to the BB, but not the other way. I may have a corrupt address, but haven't been able to get it all to work. What do I do to stop this?
    thanks
    Rowdy 

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    First, make sure that the version of GroupWise you are using is compatible with the version of the RIM DTM software that you are using:
    KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
    Assuming it is so, then the next steps will depend on the error messages when it "crashes". If you have any text of that, you can try searching for it in the public KBs:
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/microsit​e.do
    You also can activate advanced synchronization logging to see if the log provides you with any better information:
    KB01451 How to turn on advanced synchronization logging if a wired synchronization fails
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Disappearing address book on my mac when connected to iCloud

    I do not necessarily understand how to phrase things but let me give you steps.
    MacBookPro/Lion and iPad v1
    have Time Machine backups
    Activate iCloud on the Mac and within 4 seconds all the address items disappear
    Log in to iCloud in Safari. Lo and behold my address book is empty.
    Restore address book on the MBP, log into iCloud and intentionally deselct "contact" but things still disappear.
    My impression is the orientation is mixed up.  The MBP is "master" and feeds the cloud in order to provide the same to the iPad.
    OT: The situation started while attempting to help a friend who had a bad Win7 to iCloud experience. She ditched Win 7, went to an iMac and when migrating to her cloud account we realize we still have the mess from last fall. Trying to figure out how to "erase" the trash and add fresh content.

    Do you have iTunes et to sync the new music to your iPod such as by check the boxes by the music?
    Is the iPod signed into the same iTunes account that purchased the music you want to sync?

  • Problems sync'ing Address Book and iPod (5th)

    I sync my ipod address book (with iTunes and Address Book) but not every contact get sync'ed! Sometimes I change a contact picture or add a phone number and the updated version doesn't seem to show up on my ipod... It happens with several contacts on different occasions... Even if i delete those contact and create new ones from scratch.
    Also, when I add a second phone number and set this number as "Home" (like for a Summer house), this number replace the first (home) number on my iPod. When I set this new number to be "Other", it just doesn't show up on my iPod. The only way I can make it visible on my iPod is to set it as "Work" (if I don't have a phone number set up as "Work" for that contact already). Pretty annoying...
    Finally, some phone number are set up as xxx-xxx-xxxx (my default address format in AB) and some shows up as (xxx) xxx-xxxx even if everything looks fine in AB (phone numbers' label, contact's picture, address format...)
    at lost...
    maybe isync (or hotsync) has something to do with it (since i've never sync'ed with .Mac)
    iPod 5th
    10.4.10
    iTunes 7.3.2

    This is not an iSync issue, but a Motorola one. On your phone, go to the address book, click on the middle button, choose 'Configuration' (near the end), 'See', and choose 'Main contacts' instead of 'All contacts'. This is loosely translated from French, your mileage may vary.

  • Sync Address Book across two Macs w/o .Mac

  • Ipad 4 sync address book from mini mac snow lepoard. ?

    1)  I am unable to sync my address book from mini mac snow lepoard to my ipad 4.
    2) How do i turn of the icloud......
    3) How do I add more mailboxes to my email to file emails..???
    All assistance geatly appreciated...ty

    No you can sync them over a local network or USB cable, you just can't do so by iCloud.
    The other option would be to sync your mobile devices with iCloud and use the contacts feature at iCloud.com rather than the Address Book when using the computer.

  • Cannot sync my Address Book to Contacts

    I cannot sync my Address Book to my .Mac. I always get this message
    "Invalid response received from .Mac. Could not complete synchronization - please try again later". My password and account info is correct and I have followed the instructions for sycing with .mac account...Please help!

    Thank you again for your help.  I probably was not as clear in my answer as I should have been.  I did follow the instructions in the linked article, even though it was for the iPhone.  Since I do not have a Windows Hotmail account, I could not use that guidance.  I will just type in the addresses I need as I need them when using the iPad device.  It would be much simpler if I could have just synced them directly to the device.
    Thank you.

  • Syncing My Address Book

    My hard drive recently failed and I didn't back it up. I was told that once I try to sync my iphone with my my new hard drive, it will restore the phone back to factory settings and all is lost. If I manually type in my contacts into my now empty address book on my mac and try to sync, will my contacts transfer over to my iphone? The same goes for my notes and calendar. If this method won't work, what is the best way to make this process as painless as possible? Thanks in advance!

    Not sure what you mean by there is no option to do that.
    There is only an option to "Merge Selected Cards"
    And copied from my previous post.
    Before syncing contact info and calendar events with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac, enter one contact in the Address Book and one calendar event in iCal on your Mac. Make these up if needed, which can be deleted later. *This will or should provide a merge prompt when syncing contacts info and calendar events with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac, which you want to select.* When selecting the merge option, all contact info and calendar events on your iPhone will be transferred to the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
    The option to "Merge Selected Cards" is a merge prompt, which will transfer all contact info on your iPhone to the Address Book on your Mac when syncing, and the single contact that you entered in the Address Book on your Mac (which provides the merge prompt), will be transferred to your iPhone. If you don't select the merge prompt, all contact info on your iPhone will be erased.
    After this first sync with the merge option, the Address Book on your Mac will be kept synchronized with your iPhone's address book.
    The same applies to syncing calendar events with iCal the first time.
