Syncing address book from a Mac

After several years of easily syncing my BlackBerry Curve 8530 to my Mac, I suddenly can't do it. I get the following error message: The Address Book database cannot be accessed for synchroniztion. For help resolving this issue, refer to KB19454 in the BlackBerry Desktop Software Knowledge Base.
I can't find KB19454 in the database. I can't find a way to call BlackBerry to resolve this. My Sprint store won't touch my Mac (and vice versa). Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
thank you.

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.

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.

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?

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?

Try the .Mac Sync forum - its probably more appropriate to your issue.

I am having trouble trying to get my address book from my mac (just downloaded Lion for this purpose) to my 3G ipad. Set up an icloud account but still confused! Please help !

I updated my mac with os x Lion so that I could accomplish moving my address book from the mac to my new IPad 3G. I also set up an icloud account for this purpose, but I *still* cannot figure out how to move my address book from one computer to the other. When I'm on my mac and try to use bluetooth to export the address book, I'm able to find my ipad but I soon get a message that it does not support the necessary services. I have no idea what's going on and would appreciate any advice. tks in advance, Sarah

The address book syncs via iCloud, not Bluetooth or iTunes.
You upgraded to Lion so you could use iCoud.
On the computer. go to Apple menu > System prefs > iCloud.
Sign into your iCloud account.
Tick everything.
This enalbes the se items syncing to iCloud.
On the iPad, Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Create a new iCloud account.
Sign in with the same AppleID as your computer.
Settings > iCloud and turn everything on.
BAM!
That is all you need to do.
Your contacts (and all other checked items checked) will sync between computer and iPad.
No need to use iTunes

Transfer address book from other mac ?

How do I transfer my address book from older mac to new macbook pro?

I assume you means the contacts. The Address Book includes an export feature, which may be slightly different for an earlier version. At the menu bar, go to File > Export. If there is an Address Book Archive selection, use that.
Transfer the exported archive to your new Mac. Use the import option with the Address Book on your new Mac to import the archive.

How do i add my address book from my mac to my iPhone4

i have my address book on my mac book and have connected and synced my new iphone4 but im not sure how to add something from my computer to my phone. . . . please HELP!

The iPad contact app and the computer's contact app are not the same. You can't create groups on the iPad. You can view the groups created on the computer when synced with iCloud. Not sure if synced with iTunes, but the iPad app won't change.
If you synced the iPad with iTunes before, then it should still show up as a device in iTunes. If you are using the new iTunes, the devices don't appear in the sidebar anymore. At the upper right hand side if the iTunes window, younshould see a box to show devices. Click on that.

Sync Address Book across two Macs w/o .Mac

How do I sync two address books across two Macs without using .Mac?

Hi
There are several third-party solutions. When I was without .Mac I used Address-O-Sync. You can find others on versiontracker.

Sync address book from computer to phone

I want to sync my address book on my mac air to my iphone5 but itunes says it is going to use Microsoft Exchange to sync. What does that mean? I didn't do it cause it didn't seem right.

I thought that I did. In INFO>Contacts in my itunes it asked me to sync address book contacts. These contacts I do not care to have on my phone. But my phone contacts are not in my address book. How can I just sync my phone contacts to my computer. So when I restore it I can just sync those right back to my phone. I am not seeing an option for this.

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 to sync address book from OS 10.7 to 10.6

Is there any way to sync my address book from 10.7 to 10.6 ? Is there a work-around?

I actually found the solution on another page. If I go into iTunes while my iPhone is plugged in, I just needed to click on the "Info" tab of iPhones in iTunes and then click on "Sync Address Book Contacts," since it wasn't checked after the upgrade. Simple solution when you know what the answer is.

Sync address book between 2 macs?

How do you transfer all address book contents from MacBook Pro to an Air and thereafter sync them?
Same question ref calendar?

I was not suggesting to use your iPhone to sync the 2 computers.
What I was suggesting was that if you have an iPhone that you can sigh up for iCloud which will store your contacts and calendars and then sync them with all your Apple devices. You don't have to use it for anything else if you kdon't want to.
I personally use Google to sync my Android phone contacts and calendar with both my Mac Address book and iCal and my Windows PCs using Mozilla Thunderbird email program Address book and a Calendar add-on. I also use Thunderbird on the Mac and sync the contacts directly in TB with my Google account.
Other then doing something like that there is NO WAY.
Good Luck and Best Wishes.

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.
