Synch with address book

I'm trying to synch my address book on my MacBook Pro with my iPod Classic, it takes and changes some addresses but not every new one I have entered. Is there a proper way to synch the two?

QuickBooks Pro7 Contact Synch with Address Book

I want to get QuickBooks Pro7 Customers to Contact Sync with Address Book.
(Currently, I can only get Contact Sync to work in Address Book for Vendors, where it correctly creates a new folder group with vendor contacts.)
I have updated all versions, corrected permissions, and tried the Apple Store Genius Bar.
Any ideas?

Intuit web site support.

How can I synch the Address Book on my Mac to the Contacts on my iPad (or, can I setup Address Book on my iPad?)

Selected under the Info tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes.
With such a question, you should spend some time with the user guide.

HT1296 I want to synch my address book using the usb connection to my computer, but the IPad doesn't appear on the desk top?

I want to synch my address book to my I-Pad using the usb connection to my computer, but the IPad doesn't show up on the desk top or in I-Tunes. Any suggestions?

Try again to install the latest version of iTunes; http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Otherwise when your iPad is connected with your computer and iTunes open try several times; Keep the Powerbutton and the Homebutton pressed at the same time until you see the Apple logo on your iPad screen.

Do you have your iPad set to sync? Plug your iPad into you computer then launch iTunes, click on your iPad in the left window then click the info tab, check to make sure the tab is set to sync with your address book.

Family sharing iCloud ID to synch iCal&Address Book, but do not want to share email.

Hello,
I have both mine and my wife’s iphone paired to my icloud account so we can share/synch our Address Book, iCal, Find my iPhone, etc. Plus, we share my iTunes account, though that is under a different Apple ID.
My email address is not in her mail folder, however she gets my mail in her ‘All Inboxes’.
How do I stop this, yet still share my iCloud features (family plan - type)?
Thx - Erik
<Email Edited by Host>

Firstly, I've asked the hosts to edit your email from your post, it's not a good idea to post it in the open it will attract unwanted mail.
If your wife simply doesn't want your email she can turn off mail syncing in her iCloud settings.
If she wants her own me address she should have her own iCloud account, you could then add each others iCloud to your own a s a secondary account and just turn on the sync services you want.

HT2486 Is there a way to open two windows with address book on my computer?

Is there a way to open two windows with address book on my computer?

Photoshop only has one Color Palette. If you could script something like a Color Palette with two sets of active sliders the script would be in control till you dismissed its sliders dialog. You would not be able to do anything but adjust the script's sliders in Photoshop while the script dialog window is being displayed. Photoshop Scripting does not have real palette dialog type support.
I do not know what is possible with Photoshop extensions using HTML 5 Panels.....

Blackberry desktop software doesn't connect with address book

blackberry desktop software version 2.4.0 doesn't connect with address book on a mac os lion (10.7.4). Sync contacts not possible. Use a BB 9500 v5.0.0.841 (plateform 4.2.0.380). Any solution ?

You have both Desktop Software and Link set to open when a device is connected to your Mac. You need to go to the settings of Desktop Software (I don't recall exactly what to do but there should be some settings in the top right corner) and set it to not open when a device is connected. Once you have it set to not open when your phone is connected, make sure that Link is set to open. That should resolve your issue.
Let us know if that helps you.

IPhone Won't Sync With Address Book

I am asking this question for a friend who lives abroad. They have an iPhone which has been set up at work to sync with Outlook over the air. He wants to share some of those contacts with his wife who syncs using iTunes. I suggested to him that he syncs via iTunes to Address Book, makes two Groups in Address Book, one each, and drag the desired contacts to each Group then sync the phone again. She can then select the group she wants to use in the Contacts app. However, no matter what he does he cannot get the contacts on his phone to sync with Address Book. I think he may need to make a new account and populate it with contacts from Outlook, could anyone give me advice as to whether this is the right method?
They are using iPhone4's running iOS5 and Lion 10.7.2
Thanks in advance for any help.

It's a limitation of ActiveSync & the way virtually every employer wants it. Fact is, you cannot sync contacts from a work exchange account with a supported contact application on your computer.

Outlook won't sync with Address book

Since moving to Lion and using Icloud, my Outlook address book won't sync with Address Book at all. I have sync services selected in Outlook. Calendar won't sync either. Does it just not work anymore?

Hey, I'm Michael and I work for connex.io, an address book app.
Did you try hooking them all up to iCloud? That should do that trick for Address Book and iPhone.
Alternatively, you could try connex.io. You would be able to sync all of your contacts between iPhone, Address Book and Outlook (and more if you want to). It also de-duplicates, cleans, completes and updates your contacts for you. So you jsut connect your services and connex.io takes care of the rest.
If you want to try connex.io, check out: www.connex.io or if you need any more tips: [email protected]
I hope this helped you out.
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

Palm contacts do not sync with address book

Contact data from my Palm Tungsten does not sync with Address Book. I am running the latest Palm OS and Desktop with iSync 1.5 and Panther OS 10.3.9. Calendar is syncing correctly. According to the log, iSync thinks that the Address Book is also working but no data gets transferred in either directon. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Power Book Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi,
i also used iSync for a long time with my Tungsten. BUT(!) iSync is very poor! I learned to know MissingSync and this is a really cool App! Now i have categories in my calender after syncing with my Titanium, i have all adresses and there are a lot of more cool features. Look here:

Outlook 2011 problem syncing contacts with address book

I am aware that Lion has broken the sync ability of Outlook 2011 with Address Book. Hopefullly this will be fixed at some point.
So my problem is that I have decided to use a workaround to get my Address Book contents into Outlook 2011. I am not concerned with further syncing at this point. I just want to get my addresses into Outlook and hope a better fix is offered at some point.
About the only way I could figure out how to do this was to export my Address Book as vCard. I then imported the vCard file into Gmail and then exported that as a CSV file. It contained 550 addresses. I opened it in Excel and it contained 550 rows. Great so far.
I then Imported into Outlook 2011 and chose import a text file. When the mapping window opened, it showed over 890 files instead of 550 and the fields were not mapped correctly. I could not complete the import because it was so screwed up.
So I'm back to square one and very frustrated. There must be others who have the same issue and maybe have figured out a way to do this. Please help.

Outlook 2011 won't sync with Address Book iCal, etc.

We recently adopted Outlook for the Mac 2011 (we used Exchange) for our platform because of Exchange compatibility issues with other applications. Despite the clear statement in Outlook Sync Services that it will sync with Address Book and iCal, I cannot get it to sync with either. I've looked around the forums, and deleted plist files, but nothing. My iSync says that I have no devices, but I'm only trying to sync between Exchange and the apps on my MBP (I also have an iPhone but I'm okay with Exchange there). I'm also reading about problems with iCloud and Exchange; is this the problem?
I'm not ordinarily this stupid, but I'm hitting a brick wall here.

You must be on OS X 10.7 in order to use iCloud.
OS X 10.7 (Lion) is available in the App Store as a digital download. It is $29. Best practice - be sure to make a backup copy of your computer before upgrading any software.
After you download and install 10.7 Lion, you will have an iCloud icon in System Preferences.

Connect to LDAP with Address Book and Mail

The admin guide for OD is pretty vague from what I've been able to figure out. How do I connect to my LDAP with Address Book and Mail? I'm sure this is a really simple setup and I'm just missing some minor detail.

3 Problems with Address Book-- now considering Bento

I have 3 problems with Apple Address Book that make it close to unusable for me, so I'm considering buying Bento 3:
1. *Can't un-do accidentally deleted text*- When you click in the "Notes" section, it will select all the text there by default (instead of merely inserting the cursor). If you are not paying attention, and hit any other key when it is selected, it deletes everything in there. UN-DO will not un-do this. I've verified and reported this issue to Apple, but it has still never been fixed or formally addressed (aside from many complaints in the Apple forums).
2. *Search doesn't always work*- Yesterday I searched for one of my entries, Harbor Freight, by typing in the search "harbor". Nothing came up. I thought that maybe I never actually added this business and started with a new one. After I created the new one, I noticed that now, along with the new entry, the old contact suddenly showed up in the left column.
3. *Cards disappear*- Many complaints on the web about this. I do not do any syncing with MobileMe or any device. Occasionally, cards just seem to vanish. Sometimes the card is actually still there, but changes in the Notes field or other fields I made on a previous day were evidently not saved and gone. Very frustrating.
Here's my concern with using Filemaker Pro's Bento: if it's using and accessing the same database as Address Book, all these problems might end up also existing in Bento. I use Address Book for business and personal and heavily rely on the Notes section. I can't keep wasting my time with this.
I don't mind paying the $50 for Bento if it resolves these issues, but the shared database worries me. I guess that I could create an independent Bento database that is completely separate from Address Book, but then I don't know how well it would integrate with Apple Mail.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Dave

DON'T DO IT. DO NOT INSTALL BENTO. I bought & installed it on 01/20/10 and it destroyed my address book. Gone forever. If you are having problems with Address Book now, wait until you see the damage created by Bento! Bento does not replace Address Book. It is a 'supplement' (at best) and uses and updates every file in your Address Book without you even knowing it! Well, you notice it when your database is destroyed and you find all of your contacts under 'No Name'. I am so serious. Bento is just a shell. None of your addresses are actually stored in Bento. They remain in Address Book. Every time you open Bento, it accesses your address book database, and starts re-formatting and re-working every entry along with any 'changes' you make. And who do you call for help? Apple says 'not our program'. Filemaker says 'we don't know anything about Mac's'.....I lost four years of addresses for all of my customers. Gone. In seconds! Just don't do it. Don't install Bento. And be sure to remove any 'smart groups' you have created as it seems to be at the root of most problems one encounters with address book.
