Creating A New List; Opening An Existing List; Using The Mac Os Address Book (Macintosh) - Dymo LabelWriter User Manual

If the current label does not contain a variable object (address, variable text, or barcode), you are
prompted to open a label that does contain one of these objects. This prompt appears because the
program automatically links Address Book entries to these types of objects. You can still work in
Address Book without a variable object on the current label, but Address Book will not link to the
current label.
Rotating Names in Address Lists
The Address Book automatically sorts addresses by the last name. For example, if you enter the
following address:

In some cases, the Address Book incorrectly identifies which name is the last name or incorrectly
identifies a company name as a person's name. This is easily fixed using Rotate Name.

Creating a New List

When you create a new list file, Address Book gives you the option of importing addresses or data
(for new address lists or data list files, respectively) into the new file.
A new list file is created with the specified name and stored in the default list file folder. The new
file name appears at the top of the Address Book panel.

Opening an Existing List

If you have more than one address or data list file, you can select the list you want to use to create
labels. Also, if you want to import addresses or data into a file, you must first open the file into
which you want to import the data.
For information on importing and exporting list data, see the online Help.

Using the Mac OS Address Book (Macintosh)

If you are running Mac OS version 10.2 or later, you can print addresses you already have stored in
the Mac OS address book. However, unlike the built-in Address Book, you cannot add or change
the addresses in the Mac OS address book from within DYMO Label Software. You must make
changes using the Mac OS address book application.
NOTE Make sure that your Mac OS Address Book My Card record contains your country of
residence. This country information is used to determine the correct address format for your labels.
Refer to the Mac OS Address Book online Help for more information about My Card.
