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 addresses in Mac's Mail program (I am referring to the e-mail addresses) show up in the Address Book? Does the Mac use two separate address books?
