Thanks for that Stephen, it's all been solved by Ronni and others, ( as you 
might expect on this list ) I have plenty of Labels .

Printer is HP photosmart C6270 all in one. ( 
 can't see it being a problem with the printer. it printed all the others 
 great).

Re: Label & addresses app.

Hi Bill,
There are plenty of websites where you can order self adhesive address  
labels.
I got a roll of 500 on a dispenser about 2 months ago when I moved  
house for about $13.00

You can even choose a design for them.

Hi Bill,

I don't know of a way to use the "Mailing Labels" function for  
multiple copies of the same "return" address.


Another way you could have done this project is using the Envelopes  
function Print.


NOTE:If you want to print envelopes, first make sure your printer  
is configured to print them and then place envelopes in the printer.


1. Select all the Contacts you want to print "Envelopes" for. I  
have a Group "Family", so I select the first contact in "Family",  
then "Edit > Select All".


2. File > Print

3. In the Print Window that appears, select Style: "Envelopes"

Envelopes: Click Layout and choose the type of envelope you’re  
using. If you’re using a special envelope, choose Define Custom and  
specify the envelope dimensions.


Click Label and then specify whether to include your return address  
and which address to use for it. Choose the type of address to  
print for each contact from the Addresses pop-up menu (for example,  
print a label for each contact’s home or work address, or both).


Use other Label options to choose the print order, a country (for  
international mailings), and an image for the upper-left corner of  
the envelopes. To choose the direction in which to feed the  
envelopes into the printer, click Orientation.

Hi Bill,

If you use Address Book v5.0.1 (which you would have in 10.6.2)  
you can print "Mailing Labels"


1. Select all the Contacts you want to print "Mailing Labels"  
for. I have a Group "Family", so I select the first contact in  
"Family", then "Edit > Select All".


2. File > Print

3. In the Print Window that appears, select "Mailing Labels"
Layout - you have Avery Standard, Avery A4, DYMO (I have a Dymo  
LabelWriter 320 so I select Dymo)


Works great using my Dymo so I'm sure it would work well wi

I use the label printing facility in Address Book.
Mostly because that's where I keep my contact addresses.
Saves doing things more than once.

Hi Ronni, & List,

Yet again you have leapt to the fore Ronni, and 
managed to do for me what I thought was not possible, the Templates listed 
below work perfectly ( with just a very little amendment to my Address Book, 
which was overdue anyway ! ) 

I think this List is very lucky to have someone 
with your devotion & dedication & determination to solve other peoples 
problems, and I for one thank you very much. (  and this in no way diminishes 
the appreciation of time & effort all the other members  who contribute to our 
problem solving )

Thank you all
Bill

Hi Bill,

I have work to do for Clients this morning. I will need to do more templates 
and get back to you with something ASAP.
Are the Avery L7162 - 16 per page A4, dimensions 99.1mm x 34.0mm?
Also I will need the details for L7651 also please.

 Hi David & Bill,
 
 I decided to have a fiddle around with a "Label Template" in Pages'09 to 
 be able to "Mail Merge" a "Group" from Address Book.
 The completed Template will work with Avery Address Labels - 1” x 2-5/8” - 
 30 labels per sheet (5160, 5260, 5520, 5630, 5660, 5960, 8160, 8250, 8460, 
 8660) + more.
 
 Because I also needed (as David for his "Return to Sender") to be able to 
 "Mail Merge" just my own contact details with this Template, I also 
 created a "Group" in Address Book named "ME" (which only has my contact in 
 it).
 
 To use The Template:
 1. Double click on "Address Labels.pages"
 2. Once the Template opens in Pages go to Edit > Mail Merge
 3. Select a Mail Merge Source (select Address Book), then Select your 
 "Group" 
 4. Click "Merge"
 
 One Page of 30 Labels for every person in your "Group" will be created.
 If you only have one person in your "Group" (i.e - my "ME" Group), one 
 page of 30 Labels will be created.
 
 If this Template is useful to David & Bill (or anyone on list), you are 
 welcome to use it. I have not tried printing from it yet, as my Printer is 
 at the 'Printer Doctor' :-(
 I can email it to you if you wish to try it.
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni

Hi Ronni,

that is just what I wanted, I hesitate to ask this after all 
the hard work you've put into it, but I can't find where to set it for the 2 
Labels I use i.e  Avery L7162 & Avery L7651, Thanks once again for all your 
hard work .

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Peta,

The Template is for Pages'09. It is for using "Mail Merge" of a "Group" from 
Address Book, as explained below to David & Bill.

I'll email it to your private address and you can play around with it to see if 
it suits your needs.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Bill,

Yes, you certainly did open a "Pandora's Box"! It got us thinking about labels.
I can never dismiss a challenge, I'm a compulsive solution solver, some people 
think it is a weakness I have, others think it is a strength ;-)

Where do I get the time/effort ... I have no idea? I do know I don't sleep very 
much!

I've emailed the "Address Labels.pages" to your private email address.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Label & addresses app.

[peta belczowski]

Hullo Ronni

Did you mean that you have devised a Template of your own to work with Labels, 
or were the instructions below, addressed to David and Bill, your guide for 
working with the address book or with Keynote on the Apple?

If you have devised your own template to do this, if possible, I also would 
very much appreciate working with your Template for Labels.  At this stage I 
have been continuing to use my Labels on my PC because I have them all set up 
and I am very familiar with what I want to do.  I would certainly be interested 
in setting up all of this information on the Mac.

My attempts at using Avery Labels with the Mac did not quickly fall into line 
with my wishes!

If this is possible Ronni that would be great.

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Ronda Brown]

Hi David & Bill,

I decided to have a fiddle around with a "Label Template" in Pages'09 to be 
able to "Mail Merge" a "Group" from Address Book.
The completed Template will work with Avery Address Labels - 1” x 2-5/8” - 30 
labels per sheet (5160, 5260, 5520, 5630, 5660, 5960, 8160, 8250, 8460, 8660) + 
more.

Because I also needed (as David for his "Return to Sender") to be able to "Mail 
Merge" just my own contact details with this Template, I also created a "Group" 
in Address Book named "ME" (which only has my contact in it).

To use The Template:
1. Double click on "Address Labels.pages"
2. Once the Template opens in Pages go to Edit > Mail Merge
3. Select a Mail Merge Source (select Address Book), then Select your "Group" 
4. Click "Merge"

One Page of 30 Labels for every person in your "Group" will be created.
If you only have one person in your "Group" (i.e - my "ME" Group), one page of 
30 Labels will be created.

If this Template is useful to David & Bill (or anyone on list), you are welcome 
to use it. I have not tried printing from it yet, as my Printer is at the 
'Printer Doctor' :-(
I can email it to you if you wish to try it.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Label & addresses app.

-- I too have had a need for multiple copies of the same label, in my
case a 'Return to Sender' label for mail to a discontinued entity.

-- The simplest way is just to set up a complete label sheet, eg with
30 labels, using 30 copies of the same record, and then use N copies
at the print stage to get 30N labels. Just a reductionist thought.

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Ronda Brown]

Hi John,

Bill was wanting to print his "Return Address" on  "Mailing Labels" to a 
"Group" he has in Address Book.
You cannot as far as I'm aware include your "Return Address" on the "Mailing 
Labels". Address Book does not have that facility. 
You can, however, configure it to print envelopes with an addressee and your 
return address, but this is not what Bill wants to do.

You can create a label in a word processor then replicate it on a label 
template. 
Pages, and other word processors have Avery label templates. 

Cheers,
Ronni

Umm Bill,

You know you can set up your own address in Address Book. You can even
select that card and go to the menu "Card" and select "Make this my card".
When you print the labels from "your" card, you have the return address
capability "...built in to it" just as you desire. No need to invoke MS BS
or complain to any department at Apple. If you wanted to get really fancy,
you could also set up a graphic logo with your return details and print this
onto every label by default. Go to print, then set Style as Mailing Labels.
Click on the "Label" tab, and on the second last line, choose Image: and
click the button "Set..." to choose your pre-prepared logo.

printing my " address labels ",  as for the " return address" labels I have

Apples Address Book, whilst it does almost everything relating to " mailing ", 
it  does not have this built into it. I certainly don't want to us "MS " by 
choice .can anyone supply me with the email address 
of the appropriate  department at Apple, and I will send it to them to see if 
they could consider putting it into Address book !

Once again thank you for all your time & help

 Hi Bill,
 
 If you use Address Book v5.0.1 (which you would have in 10.6.2) you can 
 print "Mailing Labels"
 
 1. Select all the Contacts you want to print "Mailing Labels" for. I have 
 a Group "Family", so I select the first contact in "Family", then "Edit >

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Mervyn & Giuliana Bond]

For dinosaurs like me who still fiddle with AppleWorks I use the Data Base
1	In Layout mode for Labels select how many labels across you 
need and then create one label to the dimensions required and put in 
the text.

2   Switch to Browse.
3	In Browse mode you see one label.  In the Edit Menu is a 
duplicate record command.  Use the key board and hit Command - D the 
required number of times to fill the page.

4   Print that one page as many times as required on a sheet of labels.
Cheers
Merv



Hi Bill,

I would have thought the easiest way to do multiple copies of the same
address would be just to use the word template for the specific label sheet,
eg:
 for the 30 label sheet

Just copy the address and paste from label to label and then print out.

 Hi Bill,

 If you use Address Book v5.0.1 (which you would have in 10.6.2) you can
 print "Mailing Labels"

 1. Select all the Contacts you want to print "Mailing Labels" 
for. I have a

 Group "Family", so I select the first contact in "Family", then "Edit >
 Select All".

 2. File > Print

 3. In the Print Window that appears, select "Mailing Labels"
   Layout - you have Avery Standard, Avery A4, DYMO (I have a Dymo
 LabelWriter 320 so I select Dymo)

 Works great using my Dymo so I'm sure it would work well with 
Avery Papers.


 Cheers,
 Ronni

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Neil Houghton]

Hi Bill,

I would have thought the easiest way to do multiple copies of the same
address would be just to use the word template for the specific label sheet,
eg:
 for the 30 label sheet

Just copy the address and paste from label to label and then print out.


Cheers

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Bill,

I don't know of a way to use the "Mailing Labels" function for multiple copies 
of the same "return" address.

Another way you could have done this project is using the Envelopes function 
Print.

NOTE:If you want to print envelopes, first make sure your printer is configured 
to print them and then place envelopes in the printer.

1. Select all the Contacts you want to print "Envelopes" for. I have a Group 
"Family", so I select the first contact in "Family", then "Edit > Select All".

2. File > Print

3. In the Print Window that appears, select Style: "Envelopes"

Envelopes: Click Layout and choose the type of envelope you’re using. If you’re 
using a special envelope, choose Define Custom and specify the envelope 
dimensions.

Click Label and then specify whether to include your return address and which 
address to use for it. Choose the type of address to print for each contact 
from the Addresses pop-up menu (for example, print a label for each contact’s 
home or work address, or both).

Use other Label options to choose the print order, a country (for international 
mailings), and an image for the upper-left corner of the envelopes. To choose 
the direction in which to feed the envelopes into the printer, click 
Orientation.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Label & addresses app.

[Bill Cole]

Hi all, ( Ronda )
it worked like a dream, all my selected multi 
addresses folders printed out great, Except that yesterday evening I spent all 
evening trying to print my " return" address , I could only get it to print 1 
(one) Avery L7651 on the sheet of labels, which it did perfectly, when what I 
wanted was to be able to print say 20 or 30 of the "return" labels. I know I 
must be missing something, I even created a new folder with just my "return" 
address in , but it still only printed the one label. I just don't see where it 
says anything about multiple print-outs of single addresses . Hope that makes 
sense ! 
Printer is HP photosmart C6270 all in one. ( 
can't see it being a problem with the printer. it printed all the others great).

Grateful for any help you can give me
 Bill

Thanks for that David, but I have settled on Ronda's reply, ie using Address 
Book ( I've got the labels---just didn't know how to utilise them !! )

Bill, you've had many useful replies to your query -- just to say if
you don't really have a lot of labels, it may be easiest to get some
full A4 label forms and cut up the different addresses produced by the
suggested methods with scissors -- or even print on plain paper and
use glue to stick the labels on envelopes.

Re: Label & addresses app.

[David Moyle]

Afternoon all,

I'd just like to add a note. OpenOffice now has a native Mac  
application which I'm lead to believe is better than NeoOffice is.  
Could be an alternative option.


Big vote on mail merges, can be a massive time saving bonus. May take  
a little time to setup but if the job is big


*Sorry to go slightly offtopic. Bad habit of mine. :(*

Hi all,
Thanks to Rob,Neil, Eugene, & Ronda for all your useful 
replies, they are all tucked away in my " Problem Solving file " that I keep, 
the one that I will be using is what Ronda suggested " Address Book v 5.0.1, " 
I've have used address book for years and never knew you could do that with it.
 One tends to do certain things with applications and so long 
as they do that, you tend to overlook all the other things they can do !
Once again Thank you for your help in this matter.

Hi Bill,

If you use Address Book v5.0.1 (which you would have in 10.6.2) you can print 
"Mailing Labels"

1. Select all the Contacts you want to print "Mailing Labels" for. I have a 
Group "Family", so I select the first contact in "Family", then "Edit > Select 
All".

2. File > Print

3. In the Print Window that appears, select "Mailing Labels"
Layout - you have Avery Standard, Avery A4, DYMO (I have a Dymo LabelWriter 
320 so I select Dymo)

Works great using my Dymo so I'm sure it would work well with Avery Papers.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Label & addresses app.

Also check out:

For how-to instructions and note that although they show this on windows all
the MS Word templates should also work just fine on Word on the Mac. Also
there is nothing to stop you using the templates with Pages or open office
or any other program that opens word files.


Hi Bill,

Many of the label vendors (Avery etc) have templates to suit their various
label sheet layouts - you then just use the templates with a normal word
processor.

Try here for starters:

Re: Label & addresses app.

Any good word processor including Pages, M$ Word and good old  
AppleWorks can do a Mail Merge. This is where you start with a list  
and merge it into a document.


I'm sure free software like open office will have this feature.

dollar mark, and for such a small usage I was looking for something  
a little less expensive, but if there are none to suit my needs then  
I will pay that.

Label & addresses app.

[Bill Cole]

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can suggest a good reliable " labels & 
address " printing application that is compatible with my system .
all I want to do is print a few label ( not for cd's ) occasionally , ( 
christmas time etc  to save my wife the laborious task of writing them)

I have done some searching, but most appear to be around the 
$60 dollar mark, and for such a small usage I was looking for something a 
little less expensive, but if there are none to suit my needs then I will pay 
that. 

Thanks
Bill
