I usually either import CSV files into address book, or use thecontextual menu with in mail to populate my address book. I have also had some luck linking my address book in Snow Leopard with the Google gmail" address book. Jonathan On Aug 26, 2011, at 9:51 AM, Michael Busboom wrote: > Hello

I would do that and also bug it at http://bugreport.apple.com and provide a 30 second recording in mp3 and screenshots of what goes on. they seem to respond and fix stuff faster if you do that as it is very detailed and descriptive the process. Take care. On Aug 26, 2011, at 6:51 AM, Michael B

Hello Sarah, Thank you for your response. I was doing just that, but it seemed an odd approach, especially since sometimes, when "re-interacting" with something with which one had previously interacted, all the Mac would do was beep at me. Though the approach works most of the time, it is slo

You have to stop interacting and reinstaract with the text after you enter it. then and only then can you edit and make sure it's right. Good luck. On Aug 24, 2011, at 11:04 AM, Michael Busboom wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I am having several issues with the Address Book running Lion. This is

Hello Colin, I will try this approach again, but I am not optimistic. I think I will encounter the problem whenever I want to enter information for a brand-new contact. I am beginning to wonder if there isn't an alternative third-party product for the Mac that would integrate seamlessly with

Hi Mike! So you got me curious! I went hunting and found in the window menu of the vo+m menu the previous recipients and when I vo spaced on it there was a table of all I've used! And after the table is the options to remove from the list or add to address book! So you might get a few or indeed a

Hello Dane, That's not the issue. I had no problem importing my cell phone contacts. What I still need to do is manually enter hundreds of addresses that, for several reasons, cannot be sent to the unit via Bluetooth. Some of these addresses are in hardcopy Braille; others are in my BrailleNo

Been a while since I tackled a project like this but I can go from memory, I transferred all my contacts from my Nokia Phone to my mac by first selecting all the contacts and then transferring them by Bluetooth to the Mac. Each contact ended up on the Mac as a "BCF" file so I then selected them

Hello Colin, I find your note both encouraging, insofar as I wasn't doing anything wrong. As frustrating as it sounds, I may just have to enter all of my addresses on my cell phone and transfer them by Bluetooth to my Mac. There must be an easier way … While on this topic, why don't the add

Hi Mike and all, I may be missing something here, but I'm able to enter information in the fields you mentioned just fine, and move around the information I entered with the arrow keys. What I do is use the VO cursor to explore the layout of the card when creating or editing it, rather than tab

Hi Mike! firstly you are not doing anything wrong! This problem has been here as long as I've had my Mac and therefore before I did! No solutions but you do not have to quit address book just right arrow or left and back and you should see your text input! I think not a lot of people have told ac

Hello everyone, I am having several issues with the Address Book running Lion. This is not to say that these issues didn't exist while running Snow Leopard; I am only now getting my feet wet, as it were, with Mac's Address Book. One particularly annoying problem I am having is my inability to
