Hi!
I would like to sync my Address Book (app) contacts with my GMail contacts so that my GMail is kept up-to-date with changes in the Address Book.app application.
In the Help files for the Address Book application, there is mention of a checkbox for GMail syncing. However, I do not have this checkbox. Would anyone tell me why this checkbox doesn't appear for me?
Here's what the Address Book help file says with the important section in bold:
"
To synchronize with your Google Contacts:
1) In Address Book, choose Address Book > Preferences, and then click General.
2) Select the Synchronize with Google checkbox. **(NOTE: I don't have this checkbox, just 3 checkboxes for .Mac, Exchange, and Yahoo!)**
3) Read the advisory information and then click Agree to continue.
4) Enter your Google account name (such as you@gmail.com or, for Google Apps customers, you@yourcompanyname.com) and password, and then click OK.
--You can sync only one Google account.
--When the account name and password you entered are confirmed, the dialog disappears. You can close Address Book preferences now if you want.
Click the Sync menu in the menu bar and choose Sync Now.
To add the Sync menu to the menu bar, open iSync, choose iSync > Preferences, and then select Show status in menu bar.
"
Thanks!
