Move address book to online offline

Hello.

I want to change my Exchange account provider so that store my address connected in a line (on this Exchange account) locally on the Mac.

That is the address book was originally the connected address book of the Exchange account.

I exported this address book via the menu, Export-Archive.

After I deleted this account Exchange-Addressbook - disappear from all contacts in the address book (as expected).

Now I imported archive address book (see step before), but the address book is always empty.

What I tried also is to restore time machine backup of the folder in address book in < myhomedirectory > / LibraryApplication Support/AddressBook

but without success - still empty.

Help, please.

Thank you in advance.

Try this:

In the Finder, choose go to folder from the menu reach.

Copy and paste this path into the dialog box and click on Go

~/Library/application support/AddressBook

Find the three address book files - v22.abcddb and delete them.

Start Contacts and see if it meets.

I am not sure that it will work as the exchange of contacts would have been stored in a subfolder and has its own index of addresses-v22 book.

When you perform an archive of Contacts, he made a copy of the address book folder. When you restore, it replaces just the current content by copying, he did. Thus, Exchange contacts are 'hidden' in a subfolder.

Thus, if the first attempt fails, do a right-click on the Archive and choose Show Package content.

Find the Sources folder and in all subfolders. They have a unique alphanumeric name.

In each, you can find metadata records. Search in each of the individual vCards to determine which is the Exchange folder.

Again, the names will be unique names, so you'll have to QuickLook a few to see what they are (choose an answer and press the space bar - it will show you what is in the file).

When you find the correct folder of metadata, move its contents to the folder of metadata directly in the address book folder. Then try the first thing again. It should now index your cards that were buried in the Exchange folder.

  • How can I move some of my contacts in my personal address book in the list of "collected addresses"?

    All addresses in my contact list are under "personal address book" and none in "collected addresses". The personal address book is too long and fill to the top with addresses I rarely (if ever) use. I prefer the new addresses that are automatically added enter the list "collected addresses" and would like to transfer addresses rarely used in this list.

    The collected book adds all start addresses and gets big Rapids. But if that's what you want drag you and drop contacts between books.
    Select the folder of personal book, so it appears in the main window
    Select the contacts to move. Hold down the CTRL key while clicking to select multiple.
    Drag the contacts to the new book folder and drop them there.

    You can create a new address books on the file menu in the address book window
    File-new-address book

    It would be more logical for me to create a new book and move contacts unwanted on the personal book.
    The default value when adding new contacts is a book.

  • It's as soon as possible to simply drag - move the TBird address book collected addresses in a personal address book. Why this easy to use feature was dropped?

    I want to copy the user and the e-mail information to one personal address book to others...

    It still works like that. Preventing you to do this?

    If you drag and drop this moves the contact from one book to the other. To copy you must hold the Ctrl key while doing. A plus sign appears to indicate a copy and not move.

Is it possible, other than having to retype each address in the new book, which will allow the address to appear in the two books? OK - I know I'm lazy!

  • Show to move the address book of XP to Vista

    I have an address book that I used for several years.  It is on a XP computer.  I'm trying to move the address information to a vista computer.  I copied the file .dat to addresses from the XP computer on Vista computer, but the data was not updated.   Is the store program data in a different location on a vista computer?

    You can not just move the data files.  XP uses the address book but Vista with Contacts.  However, it can be imported/exported.  Here is the procedure: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Import-export-or-change-the-format-for-contacts.

    Indeed, open address book under XP and use the export function, save as comma seperated text CSV file extension, and then import into Vista contacts (or open Contacts in Vista and allows importing function, save as comma-delimited extension CSV text file, then import them into address book of XP).  It is easy just follow the instructions in the link above.

    I hope this helps.

  • Move or merge address books TBird from 'death' in the current installation disc?

    Old boot disk was not able to start Windows 7 Pro, because 'important startup file' has been corrupted in some way to the previous stop (shutdown appeared 'clean'). Re-installed Windows 7 Pro on a new drive, downloaded and installed Thunderbird, etc. on the new drive and now the disk access 'death' just another 'local' drive on the new facility. The directory of profiles of Thunderbird on the disc 'death' is completely readable, but I can't seem to find "address books" (there are four). Also can't find the magic incantation to launch Thunderbird and pointing to the 'old' profile so I can 'export' address books. Any tips?

  • move the e-mail address to address book

    When an e-mail arrives and I want it in my address book, how do I do that

    When you view a message in the messages pane, a tab or a new window, you will see a star to the right of the address of the sender. If the star is filled with color that is already in one of your address books. If the star is not filled with color, you can click on it to add it to your address book. Click on a star filled will open the Edit dialog box so you can make changes or additions to this contact.

    This isn't the same star which is located to the left of the message header in the Inbox window.
