Where is the data file for the address book located, I need to restore mine from backup but don't know where it is.

Where is the data file for the address book located, I need to restore mine from backup but don't know where it is to do so.  Putting my Mac Pro onto icloud synching contacts resulted in duplicate and triplicates of the same cards.  I have a few THOUSAND contacts and the last time this happened was on mobile me.  that had a function where you could replace info on the mobile me server with info on the computer.  I see no way to do that on the new cloud.

In the stupidly hidden user's Library->/Application Support/AddressBook/ labeled as AddressBook-v22.abcddb
For TM restores, see Pondini's TM FAQs for starters, since I don't use TM.

  • How to erase data files for ical &  address book

    I have Palm Treo 700P, am a .mac subscriber and on syncing have had problems with multiple entries and re-entries from my .mac account or MacBook or the Treo. AND, conflict resolver has hundreds of conflicts.
    Will the following work, and, how do I do it.
    -Back up iCal and Address book.
    -Delete whatever files I need to to erase the existing program database on Treo/address book/ iCal
    -Re-sync with .mac to get "one" copy of my databases on all 3 hardwares.
    If not, how should I do it?
    Thanks,

  • I need to block specific suspicious URLs, but don't know where to find the settings to do it.

    I have the URL's of some suspicious sites, and I want to block communications to and from those sites. Can I do that with Firefox or do I need a separate firewall functionality?
    If it can be done in Firefox, how?

    Please, what version of Mac OS X? Your profile says 10.1.x. Is that correct?

  • Where is the plist file for the Finder option "Always Show Extensions"?

    Where is the plist file for the Finder option "Always Show Extensions"?
    I am designing a new master NetRestore image for Leopard. I have all my Dock and FInder prefs tweaked and customized on the image. (They all live in /System?Library/User Template/English.lproj/Library/Preferences...)
    The one preference I cant get to stick is the option to "Always SHow Extensions" It appears to not be located in the usual com.apple.finder
    Can you tell me where this preference lives?

    Hold down the Option key when selecting "Go" in the Finder's menu to see your Library folder.

  • Folio Builder: An error has occurred opening the source file for the article layout.

    I have been working on a Folio. When I sat down to work on my folio, I was instructed by indesign to update my Folio producer tools, which I did.
    Since then I can no longer view any article layout from that folio in indesign. Indeed any folio that I create that does not reside on my desktop give the same problem. I can import articles, add articles and they all upload to the proper place at adobe and I can view them. But I simply cannot open them up through folio builder as I previously.
    The exact error message is as below:
    An error has occurred opening the source file for the article layout.
    The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found.
    Another strange thing that seems to be happening is that the folio will randomly reoder the articles in the folio.
    I have dumped my indesign prefs, tried creating an entirely new project, made a new account and even reinstalled the entire software.
    But the problem of opening an article that I have imported or added to a folio, simply not being found to open has got me stumped. I can't proceed with a major project until I can sort this out.
    Can anyone help.
    Many thanks

  • Field on the EFW2 file for the Federal w-2's, 941-ss box on the W-3SS form

    HI,
    This is regarding the layout of the file W-3SS with the check box on the top showing 941-SS. When we did the W-2's and W-3 for the Virgin Islands employee's manually, this wouldn't be a problem. But since 2006 when we filed the MMREF electronically, we are looking for the field which would do the same think as checking this 941-ss box on the W-3SS form.
    Is there anything on SAP which tells us what field to populate for 941-SS
    Basically we need to populate the field on the EFW2 file for the Federal w-2's which will indicate to the Government that this file corresponds to 941-SS, which previously we would have checked that box on the manual W-3.
    Please help me with this as this is very imp......
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ervin,
    Check in SE71 form <b>HR_F_W2_AUDIT</b> for the value in box 12 for benefits. You will see that this value comes from various any Tax groups like T184 to T195. There are also other groups, please check that also.
    I checked for one empployee, the value displayed was "D Deferals to 401K" in box 12b which is tax field T027 & tax form group W23D in form HR_F_W2. When you check the WT assigned to this group I see 3070(Catch Up Contribution) & 3100(401K EE Pre Tax).
    Similarly you can check for one employee & check the value for box 12b. You should get it.
    So what I think is we are checking correct configuration for the WT attached to that tax form group. Only thing is that we need to check the correct Tax form field.
    What exactly you want to change? I think before changing check some SAP notes for the change.
    Hope this helps.
    All the best!!!
    Thanks,
    Sarika.

    HI
    Maybe you have permission problem or there is invalid xoml murkup.
    To verify this from SharePoint Designer use the following steps.
    In Office SharePoint Designer, in the folder list, select the plus sign next to Workflows library to expand it
    1.Next select the plus sign of the workflow in question to expand it
    2.Double-click the configuration file (Workflow_name.xoml.wfconfig.xml) to open it
    3.Right-click on the page, and then select Verify well-formed XML
    4.Correct any errors and save the file
    5.Reopen the workflow to test
    Also double check that you are using SPD with the same credentials you created workflow
    Hope this will help.

  • An error has occurred while updating article layouts. The InDesign file for the layout cannot be...

    When trying to complete the tutorial for indesign I get the following error when trying to add an article to my folio:
    "An error has occurred while updating article layouts. The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found."
    I am able to create the folio then I click into articles. My document "WiFi_v.indd" is open when clicking add article, but I keep getting this error message.
    I am using the following versions of the software (Should be the latest).
    - Folio Builder (Downloaded version Version 1.1.8.0)
    reported version:
    11.4.3.20111129_m672305 7.5.5.17
    Adobe In Design 7.5.2 CS 5.5
    Also tried reinstalling the plugins (uninstall + install)

    If you're on Mac OS with the OS in another language than english the "User" folder might contain a non english character and causing problems.
    I e in Sweden the Mac OS user-folder is called "Användare". When attempting uploading articles from a file locaded anywere this "Användare" is in the file path the Folio producer says Error finding InDesign layout, due to -what i think is-the "ä" in Användare. If you still want to work local you can place the InDesign files directly into the Macintosh HD. In this case the User folder is not used.

    Hi cheryle36779349,
    The free trial that we offer is for Acrobat (we don't offer trials of the online services). So, the first thing you need to do is download Acrobat from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html. When you launch it the first time after installing it, you should be prompted to accept the end-user license agreement.
    Then, so convert PDF files to Word, choose File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,

    I received a message on my iPhone 4 that has a video attached to it. I "saved video" but don't know where. How do I find it and send it to mi MacBook Air?

    It would have saved to your camera roll.  Connect the phone to your Air via a USB cable and then run Image Capture which is located either in your Utilities folder or Other folder, depending on what version of Mac OS X your are running.  You will then see all the photos and videos stored on your iPhone and can then download them.
