Unable to create tree structure in Address Book like "Mail"
I'm moving from a Windows PC environment having used both Mozilla's Thunderbird (email) & Firefox (browser) successfully for years. Problem I'm encountering is setting up a similar structure in both Address Book & Mail!! I set my Mail structure as follows:
Leon Contacts
0800 Class
1100 Class
T'ai Chi
Earthquake E-tree
Branch 1
Branch 2
Branch 3
Branch 4
From my Apple phone conversations & One-On-One sessions, this is impossible. All Groups in Address Book are sorted in alphabetical order. There are NO sub-groups! When I'm composing a Mail for Mailbox, Leon Contacts, it's not easy to locate 1100 Class. It seems as though this logical approach to a tree structure would be useful for the community.
I'm at a loss for getting the mail addesses easily into Mail. Any interrim suggestions.
Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, let us know and we can move this thread to the Thunderbird queue. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

Unable to edit birthday field in Address book
I am unable to edit a card in address book properly. If I try to enter a birthday in the birthday field by either May 2, 1972 or 05/02/1975 no input of any kind sticks.
Can anyone tell me why and how to fix this problem?There is something really weird going on.
If I start a blank test card and I type (all end in return):
December 1 1973, the field goes blank
If I type December 1 (return), the field changes to 1 December. Then, if I put my cursor in, I can go back and add 1973, but not with the orignal December 1.
I CAN write 1 December 1973, but not December 1 1973.
This is bizarre. It worked just fine before Lion.
In Canada (which is my chosen country and language on my keyboard when I set up my user) we say Month/Day/Year. In Quebec I believe they would write 1 December 1973, but in Ontario we would write December 1, 1973.
This is no longer intuitive and a huge time waster! -
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.

Cannot create a new Offline Address Book
I have 2 instances of Exchange Server installation in one single organisation (by one per domain):
1. Exchange 2010 Version 14.3 (Build 123.4).
2. Echange 2013 Version 15.0 (Build 1044.25).
I have created new OAB and arbitration mailbox following
this article.
It is result of command:
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-Mailbox -Arbitration | where {$_.PersistedCapabilities -like "*oab*"} | ft name,servername
Name ServerName
BK Arbitration OAB vsrv-exbk
But when i try generate new OAB using command:
Update-OfflineAddressBook -Identity "OAB-FAB"
I get this error message:
Не удалось создать автономную адресную книгу "\OAB-FAB". Это может быть вызвано двумя причинами: служба помощников по обслуживанию почтовых ящиков не
запущена на сервере "SRV-MAILBOX.xxx.local" или у вас нет разрешений на выполнение этой операции. Сообщение об ошибке: "Не удается вызвать службу по
мощников по обслуживанию почтовых ящиков на сервере. 'SRV-MAILBOX.xxx.local': сбой. Ошибка RPC: -2147220990.".
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidResult: (OAB-FAB:OfflineAddressBookIdParameter) [Update-OfflineAddressBook], LocalizedException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : [Server=VSRV-EXBK,RequestId=84bb0fb1-d6dd-4718-a704-4e9a20e178b6,TimeStamp=19.02.2015 12:07:00] [FailureCategory=Cmdle
t-LocalizedException] 12FE7FE1,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.UpdateOfflineAddressBook
+ PSComputerName : vsrv-exbk.xxx.local
Roughly translation from Russian is - "Cannot create a new Offline Address Book
"\OAB-FAB" This may be caused to two reasons: the service "Mailbox Assistant service." did not started on "SRV-MAILBOX.xxx.local"
server or you do not have permission to perform this operation.
I investigated this situation and found out that i have "Organisation Management" role on my account, and "Mailbox Assistant service." is started on server "SRV-MAILBOX.xxx.local".
I try to restart the service but it does not fix this issue.
Please help me ;)Hi,
How did you create a new OAB and an OAB Generation Mailbox? When creating new OABs after Exchange CU5, we need to specify the GeneratingMailbox property.
For example:
New-Mailbox -Arbitration -Name "BK Arbitration OAB" -Database DB4 -UserPrincipalName [email protected] –DisplayName " BK Arbitration OAB"
Set-Mailbox "BK Arbitration OAB" –Arbitration –OABGen $true
New-OfflineAddressBook -Name "OAB-FAB" –GeneratingMailbox "CN= BK Arbitration OAB,CN=Users,DC=contoso,DC=com" –AddressLists "Default Global Address List"
For more information, please refer to this article.

If you structure your data with two columns, the first being the Node name and the second being the Parent node name (see your information below), the iBrowser applet will make a nice data driven tree with all of the SelectionEvent or navigational capabilities you want.

HT2486 How do I create a second, separate address book on Mac?
How do I create a second, separate address book on my iMac? Is it possible?
Unless you are willing to continually do an export of one contacts database and import of the other, switching back and forth, you'll either need to use some third-party contacts application or maintain two separate user accounts in Mac OS X. The built-in Address Book/Contacts application does not allow multiple address books.

How do I create groups in my address book
I recently upgraded to an iPhone. Can groups of contacts be made on iPhone 4 or iPad? I cannot sync with my Mac computer because the operating system is old...Previously I was able to create Groups in my Address Book and then sync with my iphone 3.
Sorry No you can't.
If you have groups in the Address book on a Mac they will sync to your iPad.
Apps are available that might help see.

Unable to add contacts to address book from Mail
When I mouse over a phone number (or address) in an email message in Mail, an arrow appears that lets me add a new contact with that phone number directly to address book from mail. Unfortunately, when I fill in the information and click "add to address book," the little window disappears but the contact does not appear in my address book.
Any suggestions for fixing this? Thanks!Thank you so much V.K. Your solution worked for me too.
BTW, I actually had two similar files in the app support:
AddressBook-v22.abcddb AND AddressBook-v22~.abcddb
I deleted both, but only the first one gave me the cannot empty trash message.

Microsoft Exchange Categories in iCal, Address Book and Mail
I work in a Microsoft environment with my MacBook Pro and would like to use iCal, Address Book and Mail as my default applications rather than Microsoft Oulook 2011, however, there is not support for the Microsoft Exchange Categories to be replicated into the various Apple applications. This results in my address book not to differentiate any longer from my contact categories stored on the Exchange server, nor my calendar. Categories can be created in iCal and other Apple applications but it then requires for the event or contact to be duplication "On my Mac" which makes me loose my synchronization with other systems. Any idea about to fix that?
Same issue here. I would love to migrate to iCal but the lack of support for categories is a limiting factor. Same applies to Contacts.

Address Book and Mail - Using Groups for e-mail
I've noticed something strange about Mail and Address Book in Tiger:
I created a new Group in Address Book. The Group contains people who are involved in a project. I have names, home addresses and phone numbers for eveyone, but a few people do not have e-mail. When a try using this Group to send out an e-mail message, Mail warns me that John Smith does not appear to have a valid e-mail address. I can't send the message unless I select only those in the group who have e-mail addresses and only send to them. This is a pain.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in Tiger's Address Book and Mail.app? How can I get around this? I have several Groups like this that contain entries with no e-mail.It's not a bug in Address Book, it's a limitation. Your only way to get around that is to either remove those from the group, or give them all the same email address; i.e., send those to you so you are reminded that they didn't get the email and you have to notify them some other way.
And of course, when sending to more than one person, never put the recipients in the To or CC field; they should always go in the BCC field.

How To Change Order of Email Addresses in Address Book / groups / Mail?
Many records in my address book have multiple email addresses.
No big deal but I wonder if there is a way to tell Address Book / Mail which address to pick as the default.
For example I send a litttle news email one a week to a group of contacts. I want to send this email to people's personal -- not business -- email address. I've created a group in Address Book and type that group name in my Mail to line and the group pops up. But a few of the records pick the corporate address and I have to go in and change those addresses.
I just tried editing one record ... I deleted both "work" and "home" addresses from a record. Then reentered them "home" first, "work" second. But when I closed the edit Address Book listed them in the original order (maybe alpha).
Any ideas?
